Beautiful Ends Herbal Essences: REVIEW

Hello,

I thought I would do a quick product review today (Ok, so it isn't that short). I haven't done one of these yet and if honest, am slightly nervous. I am not an expert in beauty products but thought it might be useful for anyone reading my blog to get an unbiased and completely ammature opinion of some of the products out there.

After my last hair appointment my hair dresser pointed out my hair was looking a bit dry. This was a surprise as even though I don't go much due to a) the cost and b) I don't need much doing to my hair - she always says my hair is in great condition. I don't do anything in particular to my hair apart from wash, blow dry and straighten or curl. I used to be really bad with protecting my hair due to many products being quite heavy and greasing up my hair. This is a nightmare as I have such thick, long hair I hate to be washing it every day. I do make sure I use Tony and Guys protein protection mist now though every time I straighten it as it made a big difference to the healthiness of my hair and also gives it a smoother finish.

I decided to invest in a hair mask after using one that came complimentary with a magazine and my hair dressers advice. I think it was a Pantene one and I thought it was amazing. Anyway, after a while I popped into Boots to find an equivalent. I didn't really want to buy a large pot but with no sachet options and with it being more worth while buying a pot - I decided to go for it.

I can be a bit tight with my money when it comes to beauty products, I really don't know why but I wasn't really keen to pay £5 for a hair masque. It is probably considered cheap but I am just not use to paying that much. I decided on Herbal Essence's Hair Masque's as it was on offer at £2.09 a pot. I couldn't decide for ages which one to go for so I brought two - the Beautiful Ends for split ends and dry hair and the Hello Hydration one.

Herbal Essence Hair Masques Beautiful Ends and Hello Hydration both £2.09 Boots.

Now, they might do exactly the same thing, but I wasn't sure and thought I might as well get two for the price of one. If anyone knows if they do make much of a difference I would be happy to hear about it :)

So far I have used the Beautiful Ends pot and am really pleased. Normally Herbal Essence products can be so soft it makes my hair greasy but with this I had such a soft finish and have not experienced any unwanted grease. My hair felt light and yes, cheesy as it sounds, completely revitalized. I noticed the effects as soon as I blow dryed it with my hair having a nice shine and my hair looking brand new. The texture is so similar to the conditioner that actually I wondered whether it was the same thing but like I said, it has had a different effect on my hair that it can't be. It has a yummy raspberry and silk smell which is quite musky and lingers. If you are not a fan of fruity smells maybe this isn't for you but I love it as it makes me feel like it has had a good wash. You leave it on for 5 minutes and use once a week and I will definitely continue this regime.

I don't know about any other brands, has anyone else tried anything? Probably next time I will try something different but for now, I would definitely recommend Herbal Essence if you are new to this sort of thing. Its on offer at the moment and is so worth the price. I can imagine that yes, it is probably a good masque for a starter. Cheap, quick and easy I would say go for it :)
