[productsample/affiliatelink] My introduction to colour deposit masks was with Josh Wood Shade Shots where the brunette one gave my hair a pink glow that I wasn’t expecting. I didn’t not like it to be honest, but it wasn’t the result I’d anticipated. So, with one experience under my belt, I was keen to try the…

[productsample/affiliate] I was pretty keen to try this as it seems to be exactly what my hair needs right now. My hair used to be really thick, but while it’s by no means thin, its texture has changed over the years so that it’s far happier with lighter weight shampoos and conditioners, bolstered every now…

[productsample/affiliate] When this product initially launched, it sold out within days and I can see why. Everyone with curly hair wants straight hair and everyone with straight hair wants curls – it’s the law of beauty! I’ve waited for a hot day where my hair is full of moisture from the humidity to put this…

[productsample/affiliate] Heading towards the end of summer, the number one hair complaint is dryness. Sunshine is wonderful but it does take its toll, particularly on the ends. So, getting the dry ends chopped off will give instant lightness and swish but I think it’s worth changing up your regular hair care to just give it…

[productsample/affiliatelink] This gorgeous smelling duo is perfect for very dry or textured hair. As luck would have it, all that straightening out the humidity kinks with the dryer and straighteners has left my hair more dry than usual and in need of nourishment (and the ends trimming off!). If you like tropical smelling products, this…

[productsample/affiliatelink] If ever a frizz fixer has been needed, it’s now. The humidity (such a Monica moment going on) is high, as is the heat, so I’ve been able to properly put this handy tamer to the test. I think how well this works for you is entirely dependent upon your hair type. Mine is…

[affiliatelink] Having decided to leave my hair lighter over the summer, as soon as I saw the Josh Wood Shade Shot Glosses on Instagram, my resolve completely disappeared and I bought the shade Chestnut Brunette. It’s one of the easiest colouring products I’ve ever used and I can see multiple uses. It’s not a full-on colour…

[productsample/affiliate] Some products just make the easiest of posts and this is one of them. The new mask from Christophe didn’t even need to join the testing queue – it went straight to the front because it was exactly what my hair needed at the moment it arrived. If you’re a regular reader you’ll know…

[productsample] Well, this is unexpected! Of all the things I’d like my hair to smell of, grass hasn’t yet featured in my imagining. I’ve not had anything from Yope that I haven’t liked so far, but this has put me on the fence. On the one hand, it IS that vegetal, grassy scent that freshly…

[productsample/affiliate] Last summer, I let my hair go completely free of dye – I’m not particularly bothered by greys possibly because I don’t have loads but what I liked best was not having to worry about my colour. My hair just did its thing and actually went much lighter than I was expecting it to.…

[productsample/affiliatelink] This is a hard product to categorise – it works as an alternative to dry shampoo but if you’re a die-hard dry shampoo fan, I don’t think this will persuade you to the other side. If you have coils, waves or curls you’re in a whole different hair territory where body and curl definition…

[affiliatelinks/productsample] It’s really a long while since I’ve even considered new stylers – I’ve been really happy with my regular GHDs which have lasted a very long time. I can’t even remember when I got them but I know I had Cloud 9s before that. I’ve been waiting to write about these for a while…

[productsample/affiliate] Rose fragranced shampoos and conditioners are a thing for me – I hauled a load back from Japan, eking it out carefully,  and am always on the lookout for a good high street version (possibly more on that soon). It’s just such a lovely thing to have lightly rose scented hair and makes the…
