My Go-To Hair Products

I wanted to share with you the various hair styling products that I use for my long , thick hair. I am of East Indian descent so I think that may help you to visualize the texture of my hair. In its natural state , I have lots of waves and an enormous amount of frizz! UGH!

Now a little disclaimer, this blog post is in no way sponsored by the companies that make these products.

Having said that , you will see that most of them are from Garnier. Their products really do agree with my hair. Most of my frizz are tamed after I apply their Sleek & Shine line of products which I'm thankful for.




The Aussie 3 Minute Miracle is probably one of my most favourite products because it leaves my hair totally soft, shiny and it smellls amazing! I use this right after I shampoo and condition. 



This Redken Iron Silk 07 is amazing! I spritz it all over my hair right before I flat iron . It acts as a heat protectant and it aids with taming the frizz. My hair looks professionally done after I use this product. I did a complete review on this in a previous blog post . Here is the link for this review: http://stylewatchtnt.blogspot.com/2013/03/hair-product-review-redken-iron-silk-07.html




What are some of your go-to hair products ? Please leave a comment and let me know .  

Have a great day everyone!

Hair Product Review : REDKEN Iron Silk 07

I have recently become addicted to watching beauty videos on You Tube. They are just so incredibly informative and has definitely helped me make better decisions with my beauty routine and when purchasing beauty products.

So before these videos I have NOT been using a heat protectant on my hair before flat ironing ! I know right!  All the heat damage my hair has incurred throughout the years! Sigh.... 

Upon realizing this and that all I really need to do was use a heat protectant before applying heat to my hair I purchased one almost immediatetly.

I got the Redken Iron Silk 07. At the back of the bottle it said , and I quote 'Get amazing results from your flat iron. Fight frizz and seal in lasting shiny smoothness with this humidity-resistant, thermal-protective spray.'
Did it deliver ? Absolutely! 

My hair is very thick ,really frizzy and wavy in its natural state . I spray my hair especially the ends with the product and let it dry onto it for about 2-3mins. Then using my Conair flat iron I straightened my hair the usual way . The results are amazing. My hair looks really shiny and it feels very soft.

I have also used this product before I curled my hair . It works just as well. 

The only negative thing I have to say about it is the smell ! Hmm how do I describe this. The scent is like a crisp cologne. I know this may appeal to some but not to me. Having said that , the quality and results of the product far outweighs the one negative thing. I will definitely repurchase. 

Have you all used this product before ? Tell me about your experience.
