Product Review: Tangle Teezer

When I was at my hairdressers last she used the Tangle Teezer on my hair after it was washed and I was shocked. Normally my hair gets very tangled at the ends because of the extra blonde that is in my hair due to the Ombre. However with the Tangle Teezer is was like running a hot knife through butter. It was amazing.




Needless to say as soon as I got home I ordered myself 2 from ASOS.com.




These brushes look like the old fashioned ones that grandpa's used to use, that were round. And the bristles are really fine. I'm not sure what it is about the structure, but it just works really well on both wet and dry hair to get all your tangles out.




You can buy the large for $17 and the travel size for $20 on ASOS.com

Product Review: Aveda's Damage Remedy Daily Hair Repair

Since I got balayage on my hair, the ends have been really dry as they are really blonde. Add that to the winter cold weather factor and I really needed something to help hydrate my hair. 


This is a great little product that hydrates, protects against breakage as well as containing thermal protection. 




I have been using it for a week now and so far so good. It's really nice light texture so it does a great job of hydrating, but at the same time doesn't weigh your hair down. So, if like me, you suffer from an oily scalp you don't really need to worry about it making your hair extra oily.




All in all I would say this product is a winner.


You can buy Damage Remedy Daily Hair Repair for $49.95 from Aveda shops.

Product Review: Aveda's Pure Abundance Hair Potion

I'm always on the look out for products that are going to give my hair some volume. So I thought I would give the Aveda's Hair Potion a try since I've read heaps about it. 




This product is a styling lotion with kaolin clay and acacia gum (which is organic), to help give hair a little bit of body and lift.


This is the weirdest product. When first applied it feels like a powder, however then it turns into a gum like styling product. It also says to use this product directly on your hair, but I find putting it in my hands works better. 




It does do a great job of adding additional volume to your hair, however if you do apply too much of the product it can make your hair a little sticky. But if you are looking for something to give your hair a bit of volume if does do a good job.


You can buy Aveda's Hair Potion for $39.95 from Aveda shops.

Brand Update: Environ AVST range

Over a month a go I got some of the Environ range to try out. And my initial thoughts were the products were really great, plus my new beauty salon also uses them.




Well after using them for about 5 week I have to say I'm obsessed. The pores on and around my nose have always been an issue and since using the Environ products I have noticed a change. My pores are drastically smaller, which I never thought would happen. That alone makes these products amazing for me. I have also notices that the overall clarity of my skin is a lot better. I normally get a pimple once a month (during "that" time), but since using Environ I haven't been getting any. Amazing right.


The AVST 1 moisturising cream has been the stand out product for me, however all of the products are pretty good.





All in all I'm a pretty happy camper!
