My Hair Routine & Products That I Use

Friday, September 05, 2014

Hello readers :)
Today I have kind of a long post for you :) It is all about the products that I use on my hair and how I use them. We'll go through them step by step.


1. SHAMPOO


Recept shampoo against hair loss,
Schauma Cotton Fresh shampoo for oily hair
Garnier Fructis Vita Boost Fresh - Normal to oily hair shampoo

So firstly of course, I wash my hair (every 2 to 3 days). Every time I wash my hair, I shampoo it twice. I don't like to completely strip every "good" - stuff that is naturally there - from my hair, so firstly I use a shampoo against hair loss (to me it does work a bit), and then I use a shampoo for oily hair, because that's the type of my hair. I really like these two on the picture - Schauma and Garnier one, because they clean my hair really well. I just can't decide which one is better. Currently I'm using a Schauma one, because I just want to stick to one at the time, so Garnier one is new (but I always repurchase it - you might have seen it already in my empties or so). Schauma has a nice clean, fresh scent and Garnier one has an amazing citrusy scent - love it !. They both work the same, however I can tell you that no shampoo will help with your hair being less greasy - you really can't fight with that, trust me. These shampoos are just meant to really clean your hair, without leaving it too moisturized or already greased looking.




2. CONDITIONER


Afrodita Intensive conditioner Honey & Almond protein (old packaging)
Subrina Repair & Care Conditoner for regeneration of dry or damaged hair

Now on to conditioners. Even though my hair is oily, my tips are quite dry and frizzy, so conditioner helps with that. Both of these products leave my hair soft, not frizzy and not dry. They are not too heavy, so they don't weigh down your hair. I use conditioners on the lower half of my hair.
The Afrodita one is a bit more liquidy, so I need a bit more everytime I use it, however the Subrina one is nicely thick. Currently I'm using the Afrodita one, again, because I want to use up one product at the time.


3. DETANGLING



Schwarzkopf Gliss Oil Nutritive Express Repair Conditioner
Avon Detangling Spray Apricot & Shea for dry/damaged hair
Wide Tooth Comb

After I wash my hair, I dry it with a towel and then I spray a detangler or some kind of a oil based spray on my hair or on my "wet hair" comb and then I brush through the ends first and then through the top of my hair.

4. HAIR OIL

Gliss Kur Daily Oil Elixir

Even though I do use conditioner and detangling or oil based sprays, I still use hair oil on the very tip of my hair, especially because I like to use heat on my hair, so the ends can get quite dry and split. I use the oil on semi wet hair. And then I dry it with hairdryer and meanwhile I comb through with that "wet hair" comb. This oil is really good, because it does it's job (leaves your hair soft and helps with split ends and breakage) and it can be comparable to expensive ones.

5. HEAT PROTECTING & BRUSHING


Macadamia No Tangle Brush
got2b Guardian Angel Heat Protectant

Obviously I really like to style my hair with straightener and curler, so a heat protectant is a must. Unfortunately, I do forget sometimes to use it. I don't always use heat (besides hairdryer), but I always at least brush my hair with a fellow Macadamia No Tangle brush. This brush is awesome because it doesn't pull on your hair and brushing can be quite nice + it also has a nice handle (unlike the original Tangle Teezer).

6. HAIR SPRAY


Schwarzkopf Taft Power Hairspray
Schwarzkopf Taft Invisible Power Hairspray

This is a part of styling. Currently I don't do anything much, because I shall test some more products, however a hairspray is a must for me. When I dry my hair, I have quite fluffy hair for a day, so I need something to tame it in the front. Also usually I wear my front hair pinned to one side or in a ponytail - so I fix/harden it with a hairspray. I like those two on the picture, because they are quite cheap and are pretty strong.

7. DRY SHAMPOO


Batiste Dry Shampoo - Blush, Original, Tropical

This step I use on my second or third day hair when I really need it - when my hair is getting pretty oily.
Throughout a few years I've tested many dry shampoos and then I finally bought the "oh-so-talked-about" Batiste ones. I really do like them and will probably always buy them. They do the job, leaving my hair non-greasy, fresh and presentable + it smells good (Tropical scent is my fav), is not too white and it doesn't really itch my scalp.
They can leave your hair really white, but I have A TIP for you:
Usually I spray my hair with dry shampoo, where I need it and leave it in for at least 15 minutes. Then I use my hairdryer on the lowest heat/cold mode and then just go and "blowdry" my hair. This works amazing, because it removes all the white stuff. If that doesn't help I use both my hairbrush and hairdryer. And if with other dry shampoos that didn't work (because some dry shampoos are just so stubborn) - would also kind of "dry" it with the towel :).

Maybe my hair routine seems long, but I really do it quickly and it doesn't take me a long time.


PREVOD:
1. Najprej seveda lase šamponiram (na 2 ali 3 dni). Vedno, ko si umivam lase, nanesem in izperem šampon 2x. Ker nočem z las sprat tistih "dobrih" stvari, najprej uporabim nek bolj blag šampon, kot tale proti izpadanju las, nato pa uporabim šampon za mastne lase, saj imam takšen tip las. Všeč sta mi ta 2 na sliki: Schauma in Garnier, saj moje lase lepo opereta in očistita vseh nečistoč, ne morem pa se odločit kateri mi je boljši. Trenutno uporabljam Schauma šampon, kot vidite pa je na sliki Garnierjev čisto nov, vendar ga vedno kupim in ste ga mogoče lahko že zasledili v empties objavi.
2. Sledi balzam za lase. Čeprav se moji lasje hitro zmastijo, so moje konice bolj na suhi strani. Oba izdelka (Afrodita in Subrina) mi pomagata do mehkih las. Oba sta lahkotna, tako ne obtežita las. Balzam za lase vedno uporabljam na spodnji polovici las. Afroditin balzam je malce bolj tekoč, zato ga uporabim malo več, medtem, ko je Subrinin bolj gost. Trenutno je v uporabi Afroditin, saj želim prvo porabit enega.
3. Ko operem lase, jih na hitro posušim z brisačo ter nato uporabim sprej (da lahko razvozlam lase) na osnovi olja ali česar podobnega ter ga špricnem v lase ali na moj glavnik za mokre lase ter lase počešem najprej pri konicah, nato pa še na vrhu.
4. Čeprav uporabljam balzam za lase in druge izdelke, pa še vedno uporabim malo olja ampak res na konicah las. Olje uporabim na napol suhih laseh in potem jih posušim s sušilcem za lase, medtem pa jih počešem z glavnikom "za mokre lase". To olje na sliki je super, ker res deluje (tvoje lase pusti mehke in preprečuje razcepljanje ter lomljenje konic) ter se lahko primerja z dražjimi izdelki.
5. Ker svoje lase rada oblikujem z ravnalcem ali kodralnikom, morem seveda uporabit zaščito pred toploto. Na žalost pa to včasih spustim, ker pač pozabim, prav tako pa ne uporabljam vedno toplote (razen sušilca za lase), vendar vedno počešem lase z Macadamia No Tangle krtačo za lase - ta krtača je super, ker ne puli las in je občutek res fajn.
6. Sledi še "stilsko oblikovanje" las. Trenutno ne počnem kaj posebnega z lasmi, ker imam še nekaj izdelkov za testiranje, drugače pa je lak za lase "must have" pri meni. Ko posušim lase imam malo bolj "puhasto" frizuro :P, zato potrebujem nekaj, da jih spredaj ukrotim. Običajno nosim sprednje lase spete ob stran ali pa tudi nosim čop, zato jih ukrotim ter utrdim z lakom za lase. Ta dva na sliki sta mi trenutno zelo všeč saj sta poceni in delujeta ter sta kar močna.
7. Ta korak uporabim drug ali tretji dan po pranju las, ko ga res potrebujem - ko so moji lasje že "mastni".
Skozi par let sem testirala kar nekaj suhih šamponov in potem sem končno kupila tole znamko: Batiste. Ta suhi šampon mi je res všeč in ga bom verjetno vedno kupovala saj opravi svojo nalogo, moje lase osveži ter jih reši mastnega videza, ter ni super bel, moje lasišče ni srbeče + še fajn diši (najbolj mi je všeč Tropical vonj).
Ker pa vseeno pustijo nekaj belega prahu na laseh imam za vas NASVET:
Običajno najprej suh šampon razpršim po laseh, kjer ga potrebujem ter ga tako pustim kakšnih 15 minut, nato pa vzamem sušilec za lase na mrzli stopnji ter "posušim" lase - tako se prah razpiha z njih. Če to ne deluje vzamem še krtačo. Pri ostalih suhih šamponih tudi to ni pomagalo in sem včasih uporabil brisačo in jih nekako "posušila".


p.s. I mainly did this post because I felt like I haven't talked about hair products a lot and I do own quite a lot of them. Prepare yourselves for more posts about hair and stuff :) Also if you have any shampoo for oily hair to recommend, please leave it down below !

Love and Lemons, Simona
