Phyto Phytodéfrisant Botanical Hair Relaxing Balm REVIEW

Hello girls!

So here it is...

my new LOVE!

...that has made my life (the styling & mantaining of my long hair) much easier!

My natural hair is really unruly, something between frizzy & wavy...

If I just blowdry it, without taking any special effort to style it, it'll just look like a big tangly nest on my head!!! ughhh

This is how my hair looks like when styled wavy, just scrunched with my fingers & a mousse:

Although I usually receive nothing but compliments when wearing my hair like this, I personally DON'T like this style, as I can't run my fingers through my hair because it's always so tangled up!

I will wear my hair like this only on a rare occasions, mostly in summertime!

I always dream of having a silky soft, straight and smooth hair, easy to comb and to style!

This is the reason why I'm so super excited with this new discovery!

Phyto botanical hair relaxing balm is like a dream come true!

In a completely natural (chemical free) & safe way, it'll make your frizzy, unruly hair, soft and super straight!

 The exclusive plant-based formula, rich in ferula, horseradish, and sage hydrates, softens and protects unruly hair prepping it for a smooth look.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:

- Parabens - Sulfates - Synthetic Fragrances - Synthetic Dyes - Petrochemicals - Phthalates

What else you need to know:

Straightening effect is cumulative with continued use.

The product comes in a 100ml tube and it costs cca 13.00 € (at my local pharmacy in Italy).

You only need a small amount of the product to make this work.

Watch my video to learn more about how I apply this product for the best result:

& afterwards I don't even need to straighten my hair!

Here is the result:

PHYTODEFRISANT is specially designed for naturally curly or permed hair to nourish and gently soften frizzy hair.

The combination of ferula, horseradish, chamomile matricaria, sage and plant extracts work in synergy to protect hair and provide natural, chemical- free hair relaxing benefits.

In addition to its smoothing action, the innovative alcohol- free formula works to hydrate and strengthen hair without making it greasy or weighing it down.

PHYTODEFRISANT may be used daily.

With each additional application, hair becomes softer, shinier and more manageable.

HOW TO USE THIS PRODUCT:

- Apply on wet hair after shampoo and conditioning.

- Place a dab of product in the hollow of your hand and apply strand by strand starting at the roots.

- Distribute evenly with a wide- toothed comb.

- Repeat the process. DO NOT RINSE!

- Proceed with blow- drying or styling.

In case of minor residue on hair, simply comb out excess product to restore shine.

(But I didn't experience this problem- just don't exaggerate with the amount of product you're putting on your hair. Remember, you need just a small amount to make this work!)

I do hope this was a helpful review for all of you frizzy/curly/wavy/unruly hair people! ;)

I just had to share my excitment with this product!

If you try it out, let me know your opinion about it; did it work for your hair?

Ciao, ciao my lovelies!

Tips for Healthy Hair: Moroccanoil Review & Linseed Oil Treatment

Hello my beauties!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

I'm starting off this week with a blog post dedicated to hair care & of course, I also have a video on this topic prepared for you :)

So just click on the play button bellow to watch it! 

How to get a long, shiny & healthy hair?

How to grow out your hair long, mantaining it healthy?

I really like & recommend these two products:

• Moroccanoil
• Linseed Oil

I got my Moroccanoil when I was participating at the COSMOPROF event in Blogona, Italy, two years ago, as a journalist and blogger, interviewing the important people from the beauty industry.

Among all the people/companies I interviewed, there was also a creative director of Moroccanoil company, who introduced me to the brand and shared with me little secrets & haircare related tips!

I worked as a journalist for ProvideoService

 Moroccanoil is a great product for healthy, smooth and striking shiny hair!

I use it as a finishing touch, when I'm done with blowdrying and straightening my hair.

I apply it on the tips of my hair and then comb in through.

It has this non-oily formula so it won't make your hair greasy and you can use it as a styling product without any fear.

Learn more about Moroccanoil, the prices & the products, HERE!

Celebrities such as Madonna and J. Lopez are loving this brand too! ;)

& now, let me tell you a little bit about the miraculous treatment that I do religiously every week, in order to mantain my hair healthy and just beautiful looking!

I'm talking about the Linseed Oil!

I'm using the 100% pure linseed oil from the italian brand "I Provenzali".

"I Provenzali" are eco-friendly brand, they do think about the environment, they recycle and don't test on animals!

Their products are very known in Italy and they're also easy to get: I usually buy my Linseed oil at my local supermarket!

The price of this product isn't  high, we're talking about cca 7 € for a 100ml of the product!

(This usually last me a few months!)

Yes, the good news is they do have a website & you can also buy their products on-line!

The link is HERE! CLICK HERE!

This product wasn't sent to me for free and I'm not in any way affiliated with the company!

It's just the product that I'm using since I moved here to Italy (we're talking about four years now!) and I've noticed it has a great results in my hair care!

You don't have to use the same brand as I use, just make sure that you get a 100% pure linseed oil, I'm sure a lot of companies produce it!

You can also check your local herbalist stores :)

However, I'm speaking very high of the "I Provenzali" brand because it stands for the things I have close to my heart myself (being eco- friendly, environment friendly, they also sostain WWF Italia's projects!)

How I use this product?

As a hair mask, as a pre-shampooing treatment.

I soak my hair into this oil, I apply it very generously on my hair, then massage my scalp and comb my hair to distribute the oil well.

I put my hair in a high bun and leave it like this for cca 30min. to even more than 1 hour (depending on how much time I have on my hands!)

Then I proceed with shampooing my hair & conditioning it, blowdrying it, styling it etc.

& here are the results! ;)

How do you take care of your hair?

Do you have any product to recommend me to try, something that you just love & can't live without?

Kiss from Italy xx

How I Straighten My Hair (With GHD "Purple Indulgence")

Hello you guys!

A lot of you have been asking me to show you the exact way how I straighten my hair...

As you probably know, my hair is naturally wavy & quite wild. Even though I always get many compliments when wearing it wavy, I personally prefer wearing it straight. I love when my hair is straight, silky & smooth to the touch!

I have my GDH styler, for little less than a year now, and never before was I so pleased with a hair straightener!

You can watch my detailed review on my GHD styler (mine was a limited edition "Purple Indulgence") here.

Now, since this review, I got lots of requests to actually show you "my techinque" of hair straightening, so I finally filmed this video for you :)

Please click here to watch it!

I bought my GHD at Trilab hair salon here in Italy.

The original price was 189.00 €, but I had a 30.00 € discount plus they gave me as a gift a travel size GHD hair dryer.

I use my small GHD hair dryer whenever I'm travelling, but when I'm at home, I blow dry my hair with the Remington Protect & Shine pro ionic 2000 (you can see it on the pic above).

Loving my GHD!

Straightening my long & wavy hair has never been so easy!|

GDH hair straightener is extremely good quality, it is expensive, but
it's totally worth the money.
It really makes such a difference, when straightening my hair with this styler!

In Italy, you can buy a GHD at authorized hair salons, or directly on their website:

 http://www.ghdhair.com/it/

Which brand of hair straightener do you use?

Are you satisfied with it?

Have you ever tried the GHD hair stylers?

I'll talk to you soon,

xoxo
