A few months ago, I headed up to Leeds for a few days and
attended an event with Paul Mitchell to discover their new Ultimate Colour Repair range.
Because I am a terrible blogger, I then took the products home, started using them
but completely forgot to actually post about them. So today I wanted to finally
let you know my thoughts:
Thanks to my aforementioned tardiness, I have had plenty
of time to trial the shampoo, conditioner and heat-protect spray we were given
to try. The range is aimed at coloured hair but although my hair isn’t dyed, it
could do with a boost. People always talk about how blonde hair can get dull
but I think brunette can be just as bad and my hair has recently started to
feel a bit lifeless. This range has quinoa in it, as apparently super foods can
even cure your hair! I’m not quite convinced about this, but I can’t deny that
the products feel nourishing on my thick, dry hair. They also smell
completely delicious, you seriously need to give them a sniff if you can
because they are way better than Herbal Essences in terms of scent.
I found that the shampoo and conditioner gave my hair a
much need boost after just a couple of washes and my hair also lasted well. I’m
currently trying to train my hair to need washing less often and the Ultimate Colour Repair
range meant that I can still get away with washing it every other day;
something which would have been unheard of a year ago.
The heat protect spray is my favourite, partly thanks to
its cute smaller size which is perfect for travelling. It slips into my
rucksack easily and makes such a difference to my hair if I’m using hotel
shampoo for a weekend. Although this isn’t its real purpose, it works really
well as a de-tangler on my thick hair and leaves it feeling soft and nourished, even with the use of hair straighteners.
Overall, the Paul Mitchell range looks great and I’m itching to get my hands on the Quick Styling range, as I’m so lazy with my haircare routine and always want a quick fix. Have you tried the Ultimate Colour Repair range? What else would you recommend from Paul Mitchell?
