Hydrate & Shine This Winter

img_9677I'm so used looking for hair products that focus on repairing damage that I'm a little out of my depth now that my hair doesn't need that anymore. Since I grew out my colour and chopped it short I've discovered my NATURAL hair is actually very fine and won't stay clean for more than 12 hours. I'm washing my hair every day for the first time ever and almost scared of conditioner or any product that might leave a residue or weigh it down. When I received the new Nutrifier range from L'Oreal I thought 'I'll try it but it's going to be too heavy for me' but so far I've found it to be the perfect balance between squeaky clean and deep conditioned leaving me with shiny hair that doesn't feel like I have product in it at all. The shampoo is the initial star because it's what gives me that super clean feeling but the mask is really the 'ooooh' product. I use it on the very ends where I do still have remnants of bleach hiding under my last colour and it smooths those dry areas without making my hair look dull.img_9700The leave in treatments are just as light and perfect to prep my blow dry or after leaving my hair to dry naturally to add some shine and to de-frizz. Overall it's a really hydrating range, perfect for Winter since although I don't want to use too many products it's FREEZING out there and just as my skin needs moisture, so does my hair. The products contain glycerol which I BELIEVE is in place of silicones.. it provides that same protective layer without so many of the nasties. That being said I have nothing against silicones personally so long as I'm getting the desired results.. it's just a nice to know. There's also coconut oil which we all know is some wonder from the gods where hair is concerned so.. bonus! It's one of the only lines made for damage  that I've found to work really well for my less damaged hair after a year of nursing it back to health so if yours is fine and a bit blah (like mine) but you want a little something extra for the colder months I'd recommend you give this a go!Available online here
