Dove Intensive Repair Review with Ruby Box

No Comments
dove intensive repair

I filmed a little video for you all just so you can see how pretty my hair is looking after using the Dove Intensive Repair Shampoo and Conditioner. Thanks to Dove and Ruby Box I got a Dove care package to test out. As well as the hair products I got my trusty deodorant and soap as well as the spa range body moisturiser (which I absolutely love). As I mention in the video I am always so wary of drugstore hair products as my hair gets really dry. I style my hair every time I wash it. Plus its now got colour in it so I have to be really careful with what I use. I really have been truly impressed by the Dove Intensive duo and have combined the Nourishing Oil Care Treatment so the result amazing silky feeling hair.

The key to the Intensive Repair is the Nutri Keratin Actives in the duo. It helps damaged hair recover from the damage. It also repairs signs of surface damage and penetrates hair stands providing nourishment deep inside. Result is gorgeous silky feeling hair. By combining the Nourishing Oil Care my hair actually has never felt softer and with so much volume.

In the video I chat about how much I love the products however I got the prices wrong they are both R39.99 so aplologies on that. So even cheaper than I mentioned. The Nourishing care oil retails at R64.99 slightly more expensive but still super affordable.

Me having a good hair day after using the Dove products. As well as in the video you can see each time I have washed my hair it looks really healthy with absolutely no frizz (does need a trim though). Even with my coloured hair it looks amazing.

As well as the hair products Ruby Box sent me I was super impressed with with Dove Derma Spa Goodness Body Moisturiser for dry skin. The moisturiser leaves my skin feeling silky smooth and hydrated all day long. My experiece of the spa range so far has been great.

Ruby Box will be running a competition today so will be posting on my facebook page once its live so will post a link once its live.

hair styling hero's

When it comes to hair styling there are endless brands and it really can become pretty confusing. Do I spend a lot or do I buy a drugstore brand? I always get my tips from other hairstylists I work with as they know what works best. My friend and colleague Alet always has her finger on the pulse so if she has it I will most likely take her advice. In this post I am chatting about my new hair styling hero’s that have been added into my pro kit.  New to the SA market is Not Your Mothers brand and Wella have finally introduced a drugstore range. Both are amazing and affordable and make hair styling super easy.

New Hair Look

This year its all about change for me in how I look and how I am approaching life. My hair has always stayed the same its a safety a net I suppose. You always see people making drastic changes when things happen in their life and its usually their hair. I always felt I had to have long hair because its more girly. This year I have been feeling more adventourous so I started by choping off my hair. If you looking to change up your hair and you are based in Cape town get your self to Savas. This is my new hair look created by Savas and I love it. I totally let him do his thing and chopped off quite a bit giving me a different look to the normal long tresses I have going on. But what I can say is that it makes me feel more confident and definitley I feel like a newer version of myself.

My Hair Editorial on Lucys Magazine

No Comments

I wanted to create a shoot that highlighted the hair with a touch of quirky makeup. After all my hair training from the London Hair Academy I decided to shoot a hair editorial and Lucys Magazine decided to feature it. Happy Days. The main focus of the hair is braiding and the different braiding hair styles. I collaborated with local South African jewellery brand Matter Of Fakt to add extra dimension to the shoot plus dress the braids up a little bit. The cuffs are actual ear cuffs but you can so rock them in your hair. I tried to keep it simple with the skin, the jewellery and the nails so that all the real focus is on the hair styles.
