I believe hair speaks volumes about your health and personality. I have always tried to get the best in haircare products that logic, proof and money can buy. I have tried all high end and low end products and have many times been disappointed by their results. Not because they didn't work, but because they all more or less had the same ingredients with just a different price tag. I normally don't go for name brands or pricey ticketed items just cause. I always do my research on ALL beauty products before buy them. Or at least I take a sample and compare.
According to a recently Youtube video that I saw from Paula's Choice
staff members, they stated that Living Proof products actually have a
new and advanced technology that actually works for your hair. You see,
just because a product is high priced doesn't mean it actually works or
offers any more benefits than a normal drugstore brand. So when I heard
Living Proof actually had real ingredients in it to help your hair, I
was floored. It's been a while since I have heard of any haircare
product offering actual results.
I heard about Living Proof when I received a free sample from Sephora for their Living Proof Prime Style Extender. Its basically a product that works like a primer for your hair. In case you aren't aware on how primers work; you can get them for your makeup in order to allow eyeshadow and/or foundation to last all day. I use both and my makeup stays put for hours till I wash it off. Hair primer works in the same manner. It allows your hair to hold the style you created for the day without having to resort to using hairspray or mousse. I personally don't like using those products because they leave your hair hard and contain way to much alcohol which can stripe your hair of moisture and dry it out.
When I realized that this product could hold my hair style for the day without needing parabens, sulfates or phthalates I was sold. What I also like about this product is its greaseless, non-weighted feeling on my hair. I hate products that leave my hair feeling heavy and greasy after application. I also like the fact that it has little to no residue when I wash my hair. My hair always comes out clean and shiny after every wash. It also has a lovely but slight smell to it that doesn't linger on forever.
I normally apply this product after washing and towel drying my hair. I then let my hair air dry before applying heat. I have noticed that my hair feels and looks smoother when I use this product. I flat iron my hair every time after washing and I noticed how well this holds my style. It also leaves my hair very shiny and looking healthy and strong. I have tried this product both in cream and spray form and achieved the same result. It really comes down to preference when using products on your hair. While I love the feel of cream, sprays are quicker to apply. However this cream was never sticky or tacky on my hands and was easy to clean up. So I could use both forms with no problem.
I an interested in trying out their shampoo's and conditioners as well. However till that happens, I would highly recommend trying out this hair primer! Trust me you won't be disappointed! And if you are like me who has hair all the way down to their waste, any help I can get to keep it straight, shiny and strong without striping or drying it out is awesome!
Keep Smiling!
