Hair Conditioning Routine

So much can damage your hair and the amount of dyes (permanent and semi) I have used on my hair I now tend to condition my hair so much more. I hadn't had my hair cut in almost two years, in which time I had been changing hair colour like no tomorrow, and the hairdresser said my hair felt like chewing gum when it was wet. I had 4 inches cut from my long locks and it still feels like more is needed off...I must be patient. So to get some life back into my hair I have started trying out some new/different products to see which work best for me. Again, I am in no way an expert, this is just a documentation of my own experience.

This is a shampoo by Bleach London, it has a silver/white toner in it already so when I put it on my hair I left it for a few minutes before rinsing it out. Although I am not using this product now it was a favourite of mine in November as it was brilliant in rinsing the purple out of my hair and getting more of a blank canvas before I planned on going ginger.

I am a sucker for an Aussie product, I jumped on this band wagon over a year ago buying the Aussie Shampoo and Conditioner Colour Mate and the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle. I had heard good things and thought it would help keep the ginge in my hair, plus it smells amazing! Recently I have been using the Aussie Shampoo and Conditioner Take The Heat and also the cream that you apply to your hair when its wet. I have noticed somewhat of a difference, I do struggle to let my hair dry naturally at the moment because I know it is in bad condition so I have taken to using the hair dryer but I am still trying to keep the hair straightening to a minimum.

This was actually a recent gift from my Nan (she knows I have hair issues) I had been using an Aussie spray and leave in conditioner for a while now and although it was doing wonders it is always good to try new things. This product is fabulous (and I don't even care that I totally sounded like a diva saying that). It smells amazing and it really does leave my hair with a shiny smooth gloss.

Again another gift from my Nan (she seems to really know what I need these days) and as you can see from the photo I have used way over half of it in the just over a month of having it. Coconut oil is one of those ingredients that is naturally good for you and leaving this thick conditioner on my hair for five minutes does magical things. I probably use it more than I am supposed to (you know some conditioners leaver your hair feeling greasy if you use too much...well this just doesn't) It is my favourite hair product I have used in the last year.

This shampoo and conditioner, actually my mum brought these for me, she was also at the hairdressers with me when the women cutting my hair said how horrible it was. So my mum has taken action and bought me these to try out, and |I really have been using them religiously. I had been using a shampoo and conditioner with argan oil in, and although it was okay on my hair,this stuff really does work wonders. Both shampoo and conditioner have very strong scents and with no sulphates this stuff is so good for taking care of your hair!
