So this actually arrived on hair washing day today! Great timing. Usually I wash my hair every 3 days (4 if i'm being extra lazy and no dry shampoo).
A little about my hair: It's fine, curly, dry and I tend to use heat styling on it every time it gets washed. So think blow dryer and flat irons to tame it. I tend to expect a lot from my shampoo and conditioners. I don't want my fine hair to be weighed down, but I don't want frizz and I want to be able to run my hands through its lengths and marvel at its softeness...is that too much to ask?!
Anyway onto the actual review. The shampoo has a lovely scent to it and to me didn't actually lather all that much. Which was fine it smelled good enough. My hair felt fairly clean after the first rise (I always cleanse my hair twice because I wash it so infrequently). The conditioner gave it some good slip and my hair actually felt pretty moisturised. I applied a teeny amount of the treatment after and was kind of amazed I could run my wide tooth comb though my hair without running into a tangle like I normally do.
Hair dried and styled it's actually looking pretty shiny and soft. SO say's it smells nice. However! I can feel a teeny tiny amount of something in my hair, and its sitting a bit flatter than usual. Could be how I styled it but I hadn't really changed that technique. Maybe next time i'll skip the treatment and go for my normal styling oil.
This arrived this morning (thanks Beauty Review!) along with the matching conditioner and softening ointment. I have just given it a go, and WOW. I have never found a shampoo that did not dry out my hair. Typically I find shampoo dries my hair out, and then the conditioner just helps to normalise it a bit. This shampoo made my hair feel like a conditioner does! SO silky and smooth. I am actually so surprised, I did not think a shampoo would be able to make my hair feel like this. Another plus is the fact that it is not at all heavy. It doesn't feel like I have anything heavier than usual in my hair.
The light florally scent is also so nice. I followed up with the conditioner and the softening ointment after, (the three products have the same scent), and the scent has really lingered, which is a really nice bonus.
If you have dry hair, I cannot recommend this enough. I've only used these products once, but I already know without a doubt that they have made such a difference to my hair, and I will definitely continue using them!
Tips: Use all three products in the range together (the shampoo, conditioner, and softening ointment), for maximum results and to make sure their lovely scent lingers!!
