HEALTHY HAIR

Living on a small island, life is very simple including fashion and beauty. Typically, your first impression of an island girl won’t be on her fashion and makeup but rather her great skin and hair. I’ve recently changed up my normal hair care routine with a routine my hair stylist put together for me. My request was one, I wanted my hair healthier looking than it already was and two, I still wanted it to be very low maintenance and finally, I wanted to keep my normal undone, just got back from the beach look. Here is a list of the products I’ve been using for a month. All of the products deserve an A+++ on performance. The product combination has been perfect for my hair. 

MATRIX HYDRATING SHAMPOO winner of the Reader’s Choice Awards in 2011 from Glamour Magazine.

MATRIX DETANGLING SOLUTION

MATRIX CONDITIONING BALM I’ve been using this 2 times a week and letting it soak for 15 minutes before rinsing.

HEALTHY SEXY HAIR SOY TRI-WHEAT LEAVE IN CONDITIONER seen in the October 2012 issue of People Style Watch Magazine page 186.

RUSK DEEP SHINE OIL smells amazing and you would think oil is the last thing you need on your hair in Hawaii but trust me, this product works wonders on your hair. All you need is a little drop. Great for eliminating frizz. I could wear this as a perfume. It smells that good.

LOREAL PARIS HEALTY LOOK CREME GLOSS COLOR

Every month or so I have to color my hair because my hair turns a reddish brown color from daily sun exposure. Back in January, I colored my hair using  Nice ‘N Easy Color Blend Foam and wrote a review on it. Using this LINK will direct you to that review. March 1st, I colored my hair using LOREAL PARIS HEALTY LOOK CREME GLOSS COLOR in the color darkest brown. I love this color kit. I got a compliment the very next day after I applied the color. It gave me the rich brown, health, glossing looking hair I had been wanting. It was easy to apply and the best part was I waited a short 10 minutes for the color to set. Another thing I love about this kit was the 1.86 fl oz of Healthy Shine Conditioner. It’s a very generous amount of conditioner for a color kit. My hair is very thick and long and I had more than enough conditioner for a one time use. The box reads that the color lasts through 28 shampoos but I went past the 28 days and am now into day 45 or so of having this color and I’m now beginning to see some reddish brown highlights from sun exposure.
