I love visiting the salon because my hair always looks amazing when I leave, but the look and feel only lasts until the next wash day. I have spent years trying to emulate the results of my salon visits at home - especially since I can only visit my stylist twice a year - but until recently I was not able to get quit the same results.
The process of each salon visit is always the same: a shampoo, condition (either deep or quick rinse out), the use of a serum and finishing spray for hold. And the results are always predictable: shiny, manageable, soft, bouncy hair. My stylist used at the most two styling products on my hair, so could the key to shiny, bouncy hair be to use less products?
More products = more weight on each strand = less movement
Makes sense to me.
After years of trying everything from expensive blow dryers and flat irons and salon brand products I finally found the key to salon results at home: Dual purpose products. Dual purpose products are products that perform a number of functions such as detangling, moisturizing and protecting the hair strands all in one application.
If you have reviewed my regimen you know it is simple - almost ridiculously so - and I use literally two products to style my hair:
Organix Coconut Milk Anti Breakage Serum |
- Provides slip to aid in detangling
- Contains keratin proteins for strength
- Coconut oil for moisture
- Can be used as a sealant or stand-alone product to nourish ends between washes
- Prevents breakage
Aphogee Pro-Vitamin Leave In |
- Contains proteins and silk amino acids for strength
- Moisturizing
- Provides protection against heat styling tools
- Seals cuticle
- Provides slip to aid in detangling
- Promotes softness and shine
These two products provide me with everything my hair needs after a shampoo and condition to protect it during the styling process and give me the results I love.
