You know how I’ve been gradually lightening my hair so I could be Jlo blonde for summer?
While I’m still completely in love with the color the damage is starting to show. Even by lightening gradually the bleach is still brutal. Although for some reason my damaged hair holds a curl better, isn’t that weird?
One of the things I love about my hairdresser Andrea is that she never tries to sell me on expensive salon hair products that I don’t need. She’s always telling me not to waste my money. That’s why when she recommended I try Pureology Essential Repair Conditioner
You know what, she was absolutely right. I dried my hair like usual & could instantly tell a difference, so much softer my friends. SO much softer.
This stuff is heavy duty so you can’t really use it more than once a week or you’ll end up looking limp. You’ll be tempted to try to get it to work it’s magic but resist, it’s powers can only be used on a limited basis.
I bought mine at Red Door but I just found it here on Amazon for only $18, that’s almost half off!
*Pureology has no idea who I am and neither them nor Red Door have offered me any money or products for this review. Although I certainly wish they would! It is strictly my honest opinion.
I LOVE Pureology. I use the purple bottle for my shampoo regularly. I get so many compliments on my hair…it is slightly embarrassing to tell people about my expensive shampoo habit, but it is worth it!
I am usually completely fine with using drug store beauty products (body wash, lotion, etc), but salon hair care products are totally worth it!
Over the yrs I have done a few color weaves (not to mention the hideous perms when I was 11-12) and my hair now holds curls so much better too! I haven’t done anything to my hair in at least 5 yrs, but still styles and curls good. It is weird, isn’t it? The product that you used sounds really great to use! My daughter and I both use a Redken product called Anti-Snap after getting out of the shower and before drying our hair. It helps protect your ends from damage and split ends. Works amazing!
I love that you posted about this. I’ll have to try it. I just started gradually going blonde. But I’m doing it to hide my grey hair, not for summer. Lol. I have very healthy hair and it’s turning a little frizzy 🙁
Pureology Essential Repair Conditioner is awesome! I have super thick, over processed hair and have searched and searched for a product that will repair the damage. This did the trick but overtime I noticed that my hair started to get used to the formula so, I alternate a bottle of this with a bottle of Aveda’s Damage Remedy Intensive Restructuring Treatment.
I have been using pureology for 2 years and am absolutely in love with it! Lose your website even though I am single and kid free!
Hahah, I hope you mean ‘love’ not ‘lose’!
LOVE ANDREA- she always gives the best hair care advice. And Pureology as amazing products.
finding a good, affordable conditioner is always a “happy dance” moment for me … I will have to try this one 🙂
The one I use and swear by is Infusium 23 (stage 2) Moisture Replenisher Conditioner – I wash my hair every other day, and use it every time I shampoo, and it is wonderful on my colour treated, long, blowdried hair 🙂 No split ends and no frizzies between haircuts, and I only cut my hair twice a year … so that’s saying something! I don’t get paid to endorse Infusium 23, but I rave about it whenever I get a compliment on my hair 🙂
thank you for the info, very useful, I am currently using a great hair product that is helping me to restore my hair, it’s Pro Naturals Moroccan Argan Oil which treat well my hair, protects it and keeps it smooth, shiny, frizz less and healthy. 😀
