Hair products are quite interesting for two reasons. Firstly, they started containing a lot of fancy ingredients which most of the time are a waste, as shampoo and conditioners are rinse-off products and the contained ingredients likely don’t get enough time to do anything before they get rinsed off.

Schwarzkopf got2b Glued Blasting Freeze Hair Spray – In-depth Review and Ingredient Analysis
Hair sprays can elevate a look from casual to sleek and well put together but there are so many of them in the market that is hard to choose. Especially since they tend to come in two forms, cheap or expensive and there very rarely hit the mid-range mark. In a previous post we explored the Percy & Reed Session Hold Hairspray which works wonders and although at £12 is not that expensive, it is more on the expensive sideRead more
Living Proof Restore Shampoo & Conditioner – In-depth Review and Ingredient Analyses
Hair products are overrated in regards to ingredients, as hair outside the follicle is dead.

Glamoriser Instant Autocurler – Does it work?
Hair styling is one of those things that I find hard and time consuming but when done well is totally worth it. One of the easiest looks that look gorgeous is the simple curling of the hair, especially the ends, to create a more textured and layered look. Many of us achieve this with the aid of a curling iron but it takes a lot of time and your technique makes a huge difference. So, when I saw the automatedRead more
Percy & Reed Session Hold Hairspray – In-depth Review and Ingredient Analysis
Don’t you hate those tiny little hairs at the base of your head, especially around your ears, that never seem to grow no matter how long your hair gets? I am almost convinced that different rules apply to them, than to the rest of our hair, and I am even more perplexed on how they defy gravity and manage to just point sideways, the opposite direction of the rest of my hair, over and over, day in and day out.Read more
Redken Extreme Shampoo & Conditioner – In-depth Review and Ingredient Analyses
There’s nothing like growing your hair long to make you appreciate, or hate, the hair products you use. I’ve been growing my hair, it’s up to my waist now, and so I’ve become a lot more aware of hair products, their ingredients and their true or false claims. However, whether you have long hair or short, your needs are fairly similar, healthy, nourished but also tame hair. I’ve been going through quite a few popular shampoos and conditioners recently butRead more
