Recently, I have been reviewing quite a variety of hair care products, so as I have finally used up my Biotin & Collagen newbies, I thought, why not add these beauties on to the bandwagon?


The Thickening shampoo is probably the one I got the most use out of. I do like to switch my shampoo's and conditioners around from time to time, so I haven't used this all up in one run, will that give me the same thickening effect? I definitely feel the first day volume after using this shampoo, but nothing out of the ordinary (gotta be real).



I am actually still trying out the oil and I believe it does work, I apply it when needed after drying my hair and it definitely has volume, although I don't know down to what product precisely.


On to the Conditioner; I don't know if I am the ideal person to be reviewing this. To me, every conditioner feels the same, softening to the ends and little more. Is that just me? I feel as if conditioners have a lot of weight in them that is removing the volume or the thickness of the shampoo, as if maybe the Tresseme's reverse formula is the real way to do all conditioners, what are your opinions on conditioners?

         Here is a list of the products I used:


         Onto my hair; this is just my natural blow dried hair, I am lucky enough not to have to do much to make it look okay.

          They also sent me these amazing in trend pom-poms for my handbag that are super soft, smell amazing and I am totally obsessed with!

          Every single time I talk about 'hair care' I somehow fit Nelly products in to the subject and I don't know how I have grown to love them so much. I remember the first time I purchased the product after having my hair chopped off at the beginning of the year (this sounds like a romantic comedy or something), but it did actually happen. Once I got my hair cut I went out on the hunt for hair products that would work great with my hair and create the finish look I wanted, and Nelly was the one.


          I think the straightening shampoo and hair mask will forever be my two faves although these are no longer available in most shops (sadly). These left my hair feeling nourished and rich in shine and still made my hair look healthy and straight which is one thing that most straightening shampoos don't actually do.



          To be completely honest I am not as happy with Nelly's new collection as I was with the previous. Maybe its just the retailers I know and buy from don't have the complete collection, I don't know as I haven't yet researched as much as I should.




          With that said, I do still have a couple of favorites out of their new collection, these being the normal  shampoo, the ultra repair shampoo and the hydra shine hair mask that contains apple extracts (it smells amazing!!).


          Now that I have bored you 'Nellyless' I do have one other product I have been loving and this is the volumising dry hair shampoo from Batiste. I love how this product seams to last me forever although I use it every day regardless, and obviously it leaves my hair non greasy and volumised as you would expect from a volumising dry hair shampoo.

          And they are my top hair care favorites. I know I hardly mentioned any for a year worth of favorites, but these are the absolute favorites as I have used them non stop and they are my number one recommendations!

Some of you may or may not no, that yesterday I had my hair cut just under the shoulders.

I feel so much happier with it now, it just looks so much healthier and thicker. It sounds really weird, but I used to hide behind my hair, I used it as some kind of security blanket, and recently I just haven't felt good about myself, and I was bored of how I looked, and I knew I needed a change.

I didn't copy anyone when I did this. Its so funny, because when someone sees someone with a new look, feeling good about themselves, immediately they have to make a comment to bring you down. So no, I didn't do it because of anyone, I did it because it was dead and I needed a change.
