Hair Haul

Big and Beautiful.

That's how I like my hair. Sadly, my hair is somewhat lacking in the volume department so last week I picked up some goodies in the hope that I could put some life back in my locks.

I had saved up quite a few points on my Boots Advantage card so decided to use them to buy my goodies.

The first three items are from Trevor Sorbie. (These are currently 3 for 2)

L-R

Beautiful Volume Hairspray

This claims to be a day long hairspray which is designed to hold your 'do in place without weighing it down. I've not yet managed to put it to any serious styling tests yet, but so far it seem like a decent hair spray and it doesn't have that usual choke-me hairspray scent.

Beautiful Volume Thickening Shampoo

This shampoo smells lovely and fresh and lathers really well. After blow drying I can definitely feel a difference in body in my hair and it feels really nice and soft. I'd definitely recommend this and I will repurchase as I think it has become a new favourite.

Beautiful Volume Volume Booster

This styling spray should be used on towel dried hair to help boost volume after drying. I do like how this adds volume to my hair but I feel like you need to be careful not to use too much as it does leave a bit of stickiness in your hair if overused. It also has added heat protection which is a bonus.

All 3 products cost £5.10 each.

The final product I got was one that I'd heard a lot about and that I was keen to try.

Schwarzkopf Got2be Powder'ful Volumizing Styling Powder.

As stated in the name it's a styling powder which focuses on adding instant lift and body to the roots. You sprinkle some powder onto your fingers and work it into your roots. The powder disappears and you're left with good lift and texture which gives the hair a voluminous appearance. It's a great instant boost however the powder does leave a residue in your hair so it doesn't leave you free to run your fingers through your hair. I think this is a great product to use when backcombing and creating a style which needs lots of height.

Have any of you guys tried these products? What are your favourite hair care and volumising products?

Pantene Pro V Aqua Light & Mini Giveaway (Now Closed)

Hey lovlies :)

Hope you've all been having a fab week! It's almost the weekend!! Whooo hooo!!

If any of you guys follow me on Twitter (link HERE) you'll have read that I recently got a sample Shampoo and Conditioner from the new Pantene Pro V range: Aqua Light. This was sent to me as I filled in some details from a website called SuperSavvyMe.com - not sent from Pantene themselves.

Anyway, the premis behind the new product is to provide deep cleaning without any horrible residue.

"Virtually No Residue, Virtually No Weight, Just Beautifully Nourished Hair."

I have very fine hair and I have to wash it everyday. I have heard all the lectures etc etc. I don't know if it is really damaging for my hair but what I do know is if I didn't wash it everyday I'd be a very unhappy chappy. It's oily and lank and dry shampoo just doesn't cut it. So I think this product is amazing.

It cleans all the dirt out my hair, which is standard for any shampoo, I know. But once I'd dried it, even after applying some volumising mousse, my hair still felt really light and smooth. I normally use volumising shampoos and I feel that after use I can feel the product still in my hair. But not with this. And my hair wasn't any flatter then normal. As for results? Well it's now almost 7.30pm - around 13 hours since I washed my hair and nearing the time when I'd normally scrape it back out of my face and although it's a little flat it doesn't look greasy. A little back comb and a spritz of hairspray and I'd be good to go!!

This one is certainly a winner in my book!!

Just for a bit of fun I'm going to do a little mini giveaway. Nothing too exciting but I will be giving away a Aqua Light shampoo and conditioner to one of my subscribers. The prize will not be donated, I will purchase this with my own money. All I ask is for you to leave a comment below telling me what your favourite Shampoo and Conditioner is and you will be in with a chance to win the prize!! Leave your email address in your post so I can contact you.
WINNER WILL BE PICKED ON SUNDAY 26TH SEPT

Thanks girls...
