Crowning Glory

Before I headed of to my recent holiday I chatted to a friend of a friend who was complaining on how her hair suffered from her recent beach holiday, and I had to agree that it was visibly dry, with ratty ends, which usually happens with lots of sun, salt and chlorine exposure.

 

Given that I was just about do the same and knew that for sure that I'd end up in just the same position, I decided to make a stop and my trusted 'hair doctor' #womensbestfriend aka most commonly known as a hairdresser to find a product that I could take along with me that would protect my hair condition from daily exposure to lots of sun , salt and chlorine.

 

He recommended me trying the MK Deep Keratin Treatment Masque to replace my conditioner ( which I don't use anyway) and given that me and the hair dryer were going to be parting ways for most of the holiday ( whoop whoop) , I could use this as a leave in treatment after washing my hair. 

Given that I was in the water at least twice daily , and washed my hair nearly twice a day everyday (can't deal with chlorine or salt in my hair drying) ....  All I can say is that this product gets the 5 stars from me ! , and will follow me again on my travels given it did all that he promised me it would. 

When used as a leave in conditioner after my wash , my hair was left soft and silky and dried like a dream ... (Silky beach waves)

My hair remained protected and healthy given the amount of salt and chlorine exposure I put it through, and i left the holiday with hair in a better condition than I started (can't believe I'm saying that) 

 

So guys ..... I would HIGHLY recommend this products usage on a planned beach holiday .

 

My 'Conditioner' - Coconut Hair Treatment

 

My review today on hair is two fold, as it includes what I use everyday to keep my hair healthy and shiny. I'm sure we all know the benefits of coconut oil in relation to hair growth , as it's well known and well articled because it has always been the age old secret to soft silky and strong hair.

As a child growing up I was subjected the 'old school' coconut oil head massage weekly , which left me looking like an oil head, apart from the fact that you could smell me next to you ( coconut eau de toilette) AND that it took me like two vigorous washes to removes the oily texture from my hair .... 

Funny enough today though I'm back to it ... Well... it may not be in the same version as it was when I was smaller , as this treatments washes off well,  does not leave you smelly oily, but delivers the same value as the real deal old school remedy

THIS is my conditioner replacement which I massage into my hair after my shampoo and leave in for 3-5 minutes before washing off .

The results ... Soft , silky, strong and shiny hair ...
