Over the past couple of weeks I have most definitely become a Tresemme girl thanks to this new line and a few other favorite products. When I first received them, I was extremely skeptical based on what I learned in Can You Get Hooked On Lip Balm? last year. The bottles claim to reduce split ends by up to 80% in three uses and I immediately called shenanigans. There is nothing you can do to repair a split end because hair is dead. You can temporarily keep it stuck together with hair products, but you cannot heal it. The only real solution is to get a trim above where the hair is split and take better care of your tresses in the future!
Despite my initial concerns, I’m glad I gave the products a chance because—for the most part—I really like them.
Shampoo & Conditioner ($5.69 each)
The shampoo is exceedingly gentle and has not aggravated my dandruff-prone scalp the way most shampoos do. It feels very rich, and I love that I don’t have to worry about my hair being squeaky clean—a.k.a. shredded—after washing. The conditioner also feels very rich, yet it isn’t thick like most deep conditioners. The closest texture I can think of is melted chocolate. It feels physically heavy while remaining a liquid. I liked this a lot, and I didn’t have any issues with it weighing my hair down.
Last night my lovely friend came over to play hairdresser and help me do my first Brazilian keratin treatment. It’s basically a treatment that’s supposed to relax curls and make hair smoother and shinier without the aid of harsh chemicals. Results should last about three months. Since I straighten my hair, this was music to my ears!
from Amazon for $79.90. I had read that 2 oz of product would be sufficient for one application, but in reality my ridiculously thick hair required more like 3 oz.
