Luxurios Volume All-day Hold Hairspray*

A few weeks back I was contacted by the lovely people over at John Frieda, asking if I would like to try a couple of items their new Luxurious Volume for colour treated hair. 

As I've reviewed a couple of products for John Frieda in the past and loved them, I snapped up the chance. A few days later these appeared at my door and I began to use them that evening. 

Both the Touchably Full shampoo* and conditioner* are amazing. Just starting with the gorgeously bright packaging, its eye catching and attention grabbing. I would certainly have a look at them if I saw them on a shelf in a shop. 

The shampoo is completely clear and smells like watermelon! I just asked Liam if he agreed, as I didn't want to claim something if it was just my pregnant nose playing tricks on me, but it does! The product lathers up incredibly fast and I've found a little goes a long way. It's very easy to wash out, leaves no residue and leaves your hair feeling squeaky clean. 

The conditioner is a white formula, again with a gorgeously fresh scent. I'd still say it was watermelon-y but it's certainly not as strong and noticeable as the shampoo. Again, a little goes a long way, which for me is a huge bonus point. We all know that conditioner always runs out before shampoo does. The product is easy to work through the hair, remove tangles and again is really easy to wash out.

 After using both of the products for a good while, I can safely say that I think these are a new strong favourite of mine. Being that they are formulated for colour treated hair, my easy to fade blue has stayed vibrant; and I've noticed a significant difference with the amount of colour being washed down the drain each time I shower. These products claim to keep the texture of fresh colour and I agree with that 100%. My hair has been incredibly dry and difficult to manage since both being pregnant, and bleaching the ends to achieve the blue; but since using these my hair has been both soft and shiny. Volume wise, I have noticed a difference since using these products. My hair is quite thick and can generally lie really flat and lifeless, but recently I've felt it has a touch more bounce and looks like it has plenty of life.

The All-day Hold hairspray* gives everything I would expect from a hairspray. The mist is fine and doesn't leave your hair feeling sticky or crunchy, it holds the hair and doesn't cause a style to drop during the day. Also, the scent isn't too overpowering, which is always a good thing in my books. I've used this many times and it really does help keep any volume you have in your hair without weighing it down.

First Impressions - John Frieda Products* conditioner | frizz ease | full repair | hair care | intensive masque | john frieda | review | shampoo | whenflowersfall

Hi beauties, 

I was lucky enough to be contacted by the lovely Patti the other day asking if I would like to try out some John Frieda Products. As I never have, I jumped at the chance. 

We exchanged a couple of emails and I told her my hair type, and the fact that I am a self confessed hair dying addict. The next day, a beautiful green box turned up at my door with the following products. 

Full Repair - Full Body Shampoo and Conditioner*

The full repair is just perfect for my hair type. After 8 years and many different hair colours, my hair is always in need of some repair. 

Both the shampoo and conditioner contain Inca Inchi oil rich in omega-3. The products claim to 'repair the look and feel of overstyled hair as it weightlessly restores bounce.' They also detangle the hair, reducing the risk of breaking and snagging. 

One thing I love about these products, is that they are completely fine for use on coloured hair. I'm constantly on the look out for a shampoo and conditioner that doesn't fade my current colour, and this covers it. 

I'm not one for washing my hair every day, more so every other or every third day so I've given these a good couple of goes before writing this review. 

The shampoo lathers well and I feel you don't need a whole lot to really feel like it cleans your hair. I have quite thick hair so usually I have to use quite a bit. With the full repair shampoo, you're definitely getting your moneys worth. 

The conditioner is the same. A little goes a long way but you still feel the benefits. You can either leave it on for a couple of minutes, then rinse, or you could leave it on for five minutes or so and get more of an intensive repair.

The conditioner also washes out really well, leaving no residue in the hair.

I definitely feel my hair both looks and feels much healthier since using these products. Visible split ends have been reduced and my hair is also incredibly easy to brush through. 

Frizz-Ease Miraculous Recovery Intensive Masque*

This deep treatmean mask contains avocado oil. It visibly repairs and fortifies dry, damaged and frizzy hair to help protect against breakage. Perfect for me. 

I tested this product after a heavy night of bleaching and dying my hair to a new blonde colour. I thought it would be the perfect time to try it out, and it really didn't disappoint. Usually after bleaching, hair can be straw like and difficult to manage. But after using this hair mask my hair was soft, silky and shiny. I had no issues with getting a brush through it and it still looked incredibly healthy. 

I usually find I can't use hair masks without having residue left in my hair after rinsing. This normally means my hair feels sticky, not healthy when I am trying to dry it. 

The John Frieda one doesn't leave that problem, and just like the shampoo and conditioner, it rinses really well and leaves no residue behind. 

All products have an amazing clean scent. I prefer this to the strong fruity and floral kind that can sometimes be a little sickly. 

I can safely say that I will be repurchasing every one of these products. I have never found the perfect products for my hair type and I really wish I had picked these up a long time ago. 

If you are going to try something from John Frieda, I strongly recommend trying the hair mask at least. It will not let you down. 

John Frieda also have a great YouTube channel which gives great styling tips and tricks. You can find it here.

Have you guys tried any Joh Frieda products before? Let me know what I should try out next. I think I've found a new brand to love.

All New Patene Pro-V with added Sam Fail! bath | coffee | conditioner | fail | hair | hair masque. mask | pantene | pro-v | repair | review | shampoo | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

Hi Lovelies!
    I recently requested a sample from the new Pantene Pro-V line which arrived in the post this morning, and it couldn't of come on a better day! My day's been a bit of a fail if I'm honest, thanks to myself being a total clumsy bum and spilling my gingerbread latte all over me in Costa today. Me being me, I cried from the embarrasment and left a very soggy and sticky mess. Sadface. When I got home I thought to myself, this is the ideal time for a long soaky bath, so that I did.

    In order to receive my sample I had to fill in a quick questionnaire to help them decipher  which of their new range to send me. There are six options in the new line. For normal-thick hair,  you can choose from smooth & sleek and repair & protect. For fine hair, the choices are volume & body and aqua light, and for  coloured or highlighted hair you can pick from protect & volume or protect & smooth. The new range has been reinvented and customised to help support each different types of hairs structural level.

    I was sent the Colour Protect and smooth option as I've been dying my hair size I was 13 and it needs all the looking after it can get, also at the moment it's still recovering from my crazy choice to have a bleach blonde pixie cut. Which I hated may I add, the colour was amazing but I missed my long hair.

    I was very impressed with the products I was sent, they all smelt amazing and did exactly what they were meant to. My favourite was the last stage product, the 2 minute colour damage repair masque. It wasn't too thick, it smelt good and washed out very easily. I sometimes find hair masks tend to leave a slight residue in my hair, but this certainly wasn't the case with this one.

   All in all the product I was sent made my hair very, very soft, probably the softest it's been for a while. Seeing as I'm growing out my hair and haven't had it cut for quite a while, I also have noticeable split ends, and after this they are a lot less obvious. I'm a very happy bunny and am definitely going to invest in a pot of the repair masque.

If you have tried any of the other options from this new line, please let me know how they worked!
