Tigi Bed Head Urban AntiDotes Level 2 Review

19:07

The Urban Antidotes range is divided into three different levels depending on your hair type: Re-energize, Recovery and Resurrection. Choosing which one suited me was sheer luck. Originally, my lovely Steven had bought me some as a Christmas present about 2 yeas ago from a hair salon. He explained my hair type and they recommended Level 2: Recovery.

I love the tongue and cheek descriptions. "You've Dyed. You've Fried. So take your dull hair to the bright side. Help moisture deprived hair to the ultimate recovery". My hair is slightly on the damaged side due to the years of dying and straightening, though I don't do both regularly. It's mainly damaged due to blow drying. As a result, its weaker and dryer on the ends.

He did good. I liked it so much that recently I repurchased in these massive 750ml bottles from TK Maxx for around £17.99. And, they come with a handy pumps.

Shampoos and conditioners cannot "recover" hair back to it's healthy state without getting a good chop. However, this stuff has seriously improved the condition on my hair. I can safely say that I have noticed the different in texture and softness. It looks shinier and behaves when I'm brush it.

The shampoo is great. The gentle surfactants cleanse hair while the conditioning agents soften and protect it against losing moisture. So rather than that squeaky clean feeling that leaves your hair in knots, it's more manageable.

I am in love with the conditioner. The consistency is a rich, creamy formula that is also strong enough to use as a deep conditioner. When I'm rinsing my hair, it feels so smooth and tangle free! It does not weigh hair down and leave it feeling greasy. This is a definite thumbs up for me!

Thesmell great! I don't know what the scent is - because it doesn't say. I would guess that it's a sweet citrus smell.

Overall verdict: Fabulous! These products are effective when used together. They do exactly that they say on the bottles. Since using them, I have received many compliments on how healthy and shiny it looks. That's got to be a good testament to how good these are! They will not fully repair any damaged caused by over processing hair, but my god, they feel much better after using them!

Aussie Mega Shampoo and Conditioner Review

16:11

Working on a tight budget for the passed acouple of months hasn't been as bad as I thought it would. Though, I keep seeing dealing on Feelunique.com for premium brands and I'm using all my will power not to indulge. I've been spending less time online and more time back in the shops looking for deals so I can stick to my monthly budget.

Kudos to Superdrug for the deals recently! I picked up these Aussie products for around a fiver which I thought was a super bargain.

This stuff is awesome! That's all you need to know. Take my word for it!

I've had these products for almost 3 weeks and I'm extremely impressed with how well they have worked with my hair. It does exactly what it says on the bottle. They aimed to break down product build up and throughly cleanse you hair, scalp - the full monty in one wash. Yes, it's clarifying enough to do so. It turns knotty, tried up hair into smooth and glossy locks. It gets it squeaky clean with drying it out.

Best results for hair after a night out - gets all that grubby feeling hair spray out!!

It smells great too. It has a strong, sweet fruity smell that becomes addictive after awhile. It reminds me of that smell when you first open a packet of Haribo. Ah Ma Zing!

Both the shampoo and conditioner are quite quick so you do not need to be too generous with the quantity (will also make it last longer) :P

There's no doubt that I would recommend this to all my friends and family. I've used this every other day on my hair and it's given it some life again!
