Review: Hair Products

Here are three mini reviews on some hair products I've used recently!


Toni & Guy Nourish Reconstruction Mask - $15.99

I really enjoyed using this mask! I applied it to my hair immediately after shampooing and conditioning, and left it for about 5 minutes. I rinsed it and let my hair dry naturally. The result was great; my hair felt soft and hydrated, it looked shinier and felt a lot stronger. One thing I did notice was that it weighed down my hair quite a bit. I would recommend using this mask no more than once a week.

Herbal Essences 'Hello Hydration' Shampoo & Conditioner - $5.99 each

After the first wash using these products, my hair felt amazing - super soft and silky. I was very impressed, and my hair stayed this way for another 5 washes. At that point, I noticed my hair looked and felt dirty/silicon-y (can I get away with using that word?) immediately after blow drying. I was almost certain it was just a case of product build up, so I used a deep cleansing shampoo and my hair was back to normal. Two washes later (using Herbal Essences) my hair was back to feeling the way it was earlier - dirty and silicon-y. I did a little research and have realised that this is due to the silicon found in the Herbal Essences Shampoo. Won't be using that again!

Wella Professionals Purifying Shampoo - $22

This is the deep cleansing shampoo I mentioned previously. I visited a salon and asked about product build up and the lady working there recommended I use this one. It was excellent and removed all traces of the silicon in my hair. It's very strong and strips your hair of its natural oils, so I would only use it once every fortnight. This shampoo is especially good if you use lots of products in your hair. 100% recommend!

Sorry for the lack of photos; I've been feeling a bit flat today and can't really be bothered to bring out the camera.
 Let me know your thoughts on these products, or recommend any ones you've been loving recently!
