Haircare dreamteam!

Hello! How are you?
Not much to report, I've been working away on my dissertation all week. I feel like the representation of female journalists in chick flicks has taken over my life! It's quite nice to sit there watching Devil Wears Prada with a cup of tea and call it work though, it could be worse! This post is all about three products that I've been using on my hair recently that work so well together, that I think this will have to be my routine forever now! (or at least until I see some snazzy new product I want to try...) My hair is in quite good condition nowadays, (It was long when I first dyed it blonde and it was disastrous! But since I had it cut short it's much healthier and thicker) however it can get quite dry due to colouring so I have to make sure I have good protection from heat and something to add moisture to it.

Veganese Hair Conditioner
I've only recently started using this, see my review here, and I LOVE it. I don't think there is anything I've tried from Lush that I didn't like. It's really lovely and light but still makes my hair really soft, and it smells amazing, what more could you want?

Wella Luxe Oil
This is my little luxury treat! It is expensive but really worth it, and I only use one pump for all my hair so it is going to last me a lonnnnggg time. If you've read my review (here) then you'll know I think it smells like Britney Spears Perfume, I rub one pump together in my hands and spread through wet hair, and then add half a pump more to the ends once its dried and styled. I don't tend to use this on the days I don't wash my hair because I don't want to weigh it down but its still soft anyway so I don't feel like I need to.

Tigi S Factor Heat Defence Spray
I've repurchased this twice now and I think I'll always use it. You can see my full review here, it smells lovely, it protects my hair from heat and it gives my hair a lovely shine! I use this any time that I use heat on my hair, so after I've washed it and also if I'm going to straighten or curl it on the day I don't wash it. 

That's all! Hope you enjoyed, do look at the reviews I've linked if you want more information, prices and links to the products :)

What combination of products do you rely on?
Have you tried any of these ones?

Thanks for reading!

Review | Wella Luxe Oil






















Hey! How are you all?
I haven't done any reviews in aaaages so I've got one for you today! This was given to me whilst I was on my internship when they were having a clear out, I've always used hair masks and intensive conditioner as my hair can get quite dry so I was really excited to give this a go.

Wella say

 'It uses a reconstructive Transform Technology that benefits hair inside and out, while protecting it from damage:
  • • Hair texture feels up to 10 times smoother after just one application.
  • • 3 times more Keratin Protection, providing instant and long-lasting, smoothness.
  • • Leaves hair looking healthy and naturally beautiful.
  • • Hair is easy to style every day, thanks to a special, lightweight oil formula.'
  • I Say
  • The first thing I noticed about this is the scent, it's actually really strong for a hair product and if you prefer unscented oils then you definitely wont like this. It took me a while to work it out but I knew it was a familiar smell, it took me back to my early teens, when I spritzed on my Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy before pulling my hair back into a pony tail and pulling two fringey bits down, and pulling on my denim skirt and trainers....hmm. I have no desire to look like that again but the smell of Britney Spears isn't too bad, it's strong but doesn't last too long on the hair... thankfully.
        
  It is a really lovely consistency and makes my hair really soft, I can definitely tell the difference on days I've forgotten to use it! And like it says in the description, it is very long lasting as well, I apply some when I wash my hair and can still feel how soft it's made it on the second day!

    As I said, I was given this for free but I've just learned that it's £19.95 for 100ml which is rather pricey! I'm not sure if I'd have bought this for that price beforehand, but it is a lovely product, has great effects and you only need the tiniest bit so even 100ml will last a long time, so it is worth the money. More of a luxury product than a necessity though. (buy here)



That's all!
Have you tried this or any other hair oils? 

What did you think? Are there any that are similar but not as pricey?


Thanks for reading!
