Garnier Nutrisse Nourishing Foam

I decided to try and use a foam hair dye for the first time. I normally use L'oreal Preference hair dyes to colour my hair but I fancied a change. I picked this one as it was new out and claimed to nourish hair as it coloured. I picked the colour below which was number 5 Medium Brown. 

In the box:

You got everything you needed in the box like you would normally do and instructions, I suggest that you read them carefully if you have not used a foam dye before as the technique is slightly different. 

My Verdict

The colour turned out darker than the colour on the box and on the colour chart even though my hair started out as a light brown which I am a little bit disappointed about I am hoping that my hair will begin to lighten after a few washes.

As for the claim of nourishing while it colours I didn't think this was the case with my hair. I know my hair is damaged but L'oreal hair dye makes my hair feel soft and silky when washed off but this product made my hair will dry and course, it was only when I applied the conditioner provided that it went soft and silky.

On a brighter note the coverage was good and it gave an even colour but if I was to use this dye again I would purchase a lighter colour. I hope you found this post helpful feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for reading!

Damaged Hair

So.. My hair is pretty damaged and has been through a lot of stress recently due to dying different colours. The worst hair colour I chose was red. I had to bleach my hair from brown so that I was able to dye it red. My hair is still not back to the condition it used to be, it is dry, brittle and very damaged, I also had to dye it back to brown to reduce any more damage.

How I Care For My Damaged Hair;

I use all the products which I have previously mentioned on my 'Get To Know Me' post. After trying to find products which repair and control my hair for many months I have finally found the best things for me. 

Tigi Bed Head Urban Antidotes - Shampoo and Conditioner

I currently use the level 1 version of this product but I am considering purchasing either the level 2 or 3. I buy the salon size duo pack from http://www.cheapsmells.com as they last a long time and are good value for money. I think they have really made a difference in my hair conditioner I have been using them for about 5 months and I have noticed a real difference in my hair. It is easier to comb which is the best advantage of the product for me.

Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment

As you know I am struggling with damaged hair but I am also trying to grow it at the same time. Not only does it improve the condition of my hair but I have noticed a massive difference the speed in which my hair grows. I have been using it for approximately 2 months using it 3 times a week and my hair has grown over two inches where normally my hair would only grow half an inch in this time!! Also this product smells absolutely amazing. It is best to pick this up when it is in the 3 for 2 offer in boots as you are getting a good saving because they sell for £7.99 a pot.

John Frieda Original Serum

I use this product on damp hair just to tame and soften the ends of my hair. It makes a big difference to how my hair feels and makes it a lot more manageable. Although I do not have frizzy hair this is still great for me and I plan to repurchase it when it runs out.

Redken Extreme Anti Snap

Before I purchased this product I did a lot of research of reviews of it to see what other people thought of it. the magority of reviews were good and positive so I then bought it. I use this on nearly dry hair just before it blow dry it, when I first started using it I didn't notice a different and I was a disappointed after all the reviews I had read saying it was good and I put it in my cupboard and stopped using it for a while. A few months later I decided to start using it again and use to religiously for a month to see if I noticed any difference after that. I can happiliy say I have finally noticed a big differnet in my hair, it feels a lot stronger and I have noticed hardly any split ends so I am going to keep using this product things can only get better!

If you have any questions just comment, email or contact me on twitter and I will happily give you advice from the experience which I have had with my hair.
