Hello again!
I hope it's becoming Spring wherever you are! It's been rough here in Michigan, but today it's sunny and 55! I'll take that over snow any day!
Today I am going to review the L'Oreal Extraordinary Oil line! I received the shampoo, conditioner, and serum free for review from Influenster. I was not paid to do this review, and all opinions stated in this blog post are my own.
If you're interested in these products, keep reading!
First, let's start off with some background on my hair. I have always had very fine and dry hair. My scalp is very dry and so are my ends, however, my roots tend to get very oily, possibly because I have a terrible habit of touching my hair.
With that said, about 3 or 4 months ago, I stopped washing my hair every day (yes, I still shower daily) and only use conditioner on my ends once a week. I wash my hair every other day and just use dry shampoo on my roots on the days I don't wash my hair. It has really helped with the texture of my hair. Prior to this, if I let me hair air dry, it would just get frizzy and poofy. I could never go without using heat unless I wore my hair up. I no longer use heat and wear my hair down naturally every day, as it has transformed to a much more manageable wavy look.
With that said, let's get into my before and after and my thoughts!
It's hard to see a huge difference in my before and after pictures as it was night when I took these and the lighting in out bathroom wasn't the greatest. Not to mention I had to use the front facing camera on my phone and my mirror because Tommy was sleeping.
If you look closely at the before picture, you'll see that my hair is a bit poofy. It was also quite dull and dry. I used the shampoo on my roots, the conditioner on my ends, and then the serum on my ends when I got out of the shower. I ten let my hair air dry overnight and took the after picture the next morning before going to work.
This line of products made my hair super shiny and smooth as well as making it much easier to work with in general. Not to mention, it smells absolutely amazing. It has so many great oils in it and over the 2 or 3 weeks I have been using this, I have really noticed a difference in the health of my hair.
Now the real test was my second day hair. I was going to take a picture on the second day, but I was running late for work and it just didn't happen. But I will tell you that my hair was still shiny and smooth on the second day. I did still use dry shampoo because my roots get extremely oily if I don't, but I didn't have to use nearly as much as with other shampoos that I have tried. In all honesty, I probably don't even need to use dry shampoo, as my hair never looks oily on the second day, but I'm paranoid that someone will think my hair is greasy, so I use it anyway.
My final verdict: Go buy this product! Seriously, if your hair is anything like mine, you need this line in your life. I am typically very cheap when it comes to shampoo, but this is something I will definitely splurge on and I plan on repurchasing it when I run out.
Have you tried this product before?
