Hi readers, it’s Thursday-yay! I feel like the days are zooming by right now. Hope all of you are doing well.
I have a few hair products I’m reviewing today so let’s get to it. 🙂
*Side note: I just realized some pictures came out a bit darker than I thought so apologies in advance!

HairGia Keratin Hydrating Masque; $24.99
Described as: “Moisturizing deep conditioner with keratin proteins for dry, damaged and chemically treated hair. This hair mask can be used daily as your regular conditioner or on a weekly basis as a deep conditioning mask treatment.”
Pros
Deeply hydrating and great after color treating hair
Smoother hair appearance and straightening hair is easier after using this
Paraben, sulfate, and cruelty free
Vegan
Color and keratin treatment safe
Cons
Fragrance is overpowering
Due to its thick consistency, sometimes the product is hard to dispense
Bottom line: I really love this conditioner as much as the Macadamia Nut Deep Conditioner. My only complaints would be the smell which although isn’t bad is overpowering-kind of floral like. Also, there is an ingredient in here that makes my body itch if I use it on regular basis so I personally limit use to about 1x per week.

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray; $22
Described as: “Bigger, better, full-on glamorous hair. This invisible dry hair spray builds in incredible volume and sexy texture. Patented polymers absorb oil at the roots, leaving you with just-styled hair for days (and nights).”
Pros
Available in travel/purse size
Smells amazing
UV protection
Provides texture
Color and keratin treatment safe
Invisible spray-sprays clear
Good for holding styles
Cons
A little on the pricey side
Does not absorb oil
Doesn’t provide shine
Bottom line: I like this product as a styling product as it provides texture but I wouldn’t recommend it as a dry shampoo since it doesn’t absorb oil very well. This and the Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray are great when I style my curly hair.

Oribe Surfcomber Tousled Texture Mousse; $22
Described as: “Sexy, surfed-in hair is no longer the domain of beachgoers in their tropical climes. Texturize your locks with this hydrating mousse that creates perfectly imperfect separation for that effortlessly tousled look.”
Pros
Available in travel/purse size
Color and keratin treatment safe
Good for creating piecey/tousled hair
Doesn’t leave that ‘crunch’ factor in hair
Smells good
Cons
Sticky texture and residue
Doesn’t provide shine
Hair feels very dry after use
Bottom line: I did not like this mousse at all. I tried it both on wet hair and dry and I couldn’t get past the sticky residue left on both my hair and hands after use. It defines curls and provides texture to straight hair but left the ends feeling and looking dry. I wanted to like it but after many uses, it’s a no for me. 😦

Dry Bar Detox Dry Shampoo; $12
Described as: “Prolong your blowout with Detox Dry Shampoo! It absorbs oils, impurities, and odor while providing body and fullness, leaving hair feeling fresh and clean. Lightweight and easy to use, the micro powder blends in perfectly with hair color, leaving no white residue behind.”
Pros
Safe for color and keratin treated hair
Available in trial/travel size
Affordable
Absorbs oil effectively
Provides volume
Great to use after the gym
Paraben, sulfate and phthalates free
Cons
There is a white residue left behind if you don’t work it into hair
Overpowering smell- you’ll either like it or hate it. I personally like it.
Bottom line: I had seen this reviewed in a couple of blogs before and I am so glad I tried it. It’s a really great product that helps refresh your hair and prolongs your style.

Skin Food Extra Virgin Olive Oil Hair Essence; $18
Described as: “ A hair treatment serum that contains refined extra virgin olive oil. Calms unruly curls and frizzy hair while adding shine.”
Pros
Adds shine
You can layer it without a greasy look or feel
Nice and subtle clean scent
Defines curls
Cons
Available in select Skin Food stores or online
Price fluctuates depending where you buy it from
Need quite a bit of product to add shine
Bottom line: I’ve purchased this product a few times already and I love it. It does sometimes take a little bit more product use to add shine while I am straightening my hair but the end result is soft and smooth hair.
Hope you enjoyed this post! What hair products are you currently loving? Any recommendations?
