Address the Tress


This weekend I wanted to ride my scooter, visit my Mom, go long boarding and hit the Esprit/Lacoste sale. I didn't do anything. An evil debilitating migraine visited me instead. I did manage to think about this post. Here are some of my favourite shampoo and conditioners for dry hair. There are so many more faves but I tried to narrow it down.

High
  • Lakme: K therapy dry repair shampoo and mask
  • Phyto: Phytosesame express replenishing conditioner
  • Ojon: Ultra hydrating shampoo and restorative hair treatment
Not so High
  • Joico: K-pak shampoo and K-pak intense hydrator
  • KMS: Silksheen shampoo and conditioner
  • Terax: Ultra moisturizing daily conditioner
Look for products with lipids and humectants in them. They will help with the frizz and leave your hair more supple. Prevention is always the first plan of action. Avoid overwashing, overdrying, overflatironing, overprocessing. Over anything. If you feel compelled then protect, protect, protect.

Sniff test

My client J likes yummy smelling products. Come to think of it, so do I. For most, scent can make or break it . Especially skin and hair care. Vanilla, cherry, melon and citrus are very popular. For those who don't like fruity or candy like scents the popular choice would be floral, sandalwood, lavender and mint. J purchases products on two factors:
  1. product effectiveness
  2. scent
Once we figure out what we need for him we then go on the hunt of a yummy smelling product. We walk around the store and start the sniff test. It's not quite the same effect as sniffing glue but it's kinda fun. These are my some of favorite shampoos strictly based on scent alone:
  1. Fleur Parfait - grapefruit
  2. AG - peppermint wash
  3. Molte Bene - moisture
  4. Evo - ritual salvation
  5. KMS - moisture
Tomorrow, my mission at work is to find a delicious hair paste. I'd better bring some coffee beans to clear my senses.
