Diamonds & Pebbles: Hair Haul #1.

I recently went shopping for some hair products and ended up buying a whole lot of stuff that I thought I’d share here in a massive hair haul post. Most of the products I bought were ones I already had on my hair table at home that just needed restocking, but I did get a few new products (as well as a whole bunch of samples).

PALTAS B.K.C. LEAVE-IN CONDITIONING SPRAY

I’ve been using this for longer than I can remember and it is definitely one of my all-time favourite hair products to use. I love the way this smells and how easy it makes handling my hair. This spray also works well with my UKHairweaves extensions that I’ve had for over a year.

BLUE MAGIC TEA TREE OIL

This tea tree leave-in oil conditioner is one of the new products I decided to try. I can remember when I was little and my mum used to do my hair, she’d always say how well my hair reacted to tea tree products. I haven’t used any tea tree based products in a few years so m hoping my hair remembers all the goodness it used to receive from tea tree. And with its anti-breakage protein complex, I’m most excited about trying this.

BLUE MAGIC ARGAN OIL

IC P.M. NIGHT TIME OIL TREATMENT

Even though this looks a little dated, when I first saw this on the shelf I was very intrigued. I’m a big, BIG fan of overnight hair treatments as they make me feel as though my hair and scalp are really reaping in all the benefits of a product. I love that this even comes with a cap, so I won’t be worrying about what to wrap my hair in while I sleep. The treatment offers to strengthen, repair and shine hair while you sleep, and if you read my hairand beauty goals for this year, then you’ll know this is just what I’m looking for! I also love that this hair treatment doubles as a body treatment if you have any dry areas of skin that need repairing.

I’ve never heard of these sample brands, but if these work out well, I’ll try and look for them online or in store. And somehow I lost one of the samples I was given (the long deep pink one in the first picture), but once I find it, I’ll share it here.

OSSAT NATURALS

I can’t tell if this is a gel, but it’s described as a shaping gelly with five oils and strengthening solutions. I like that it promises to leave hair defined and not crispy or crunchy, as I’ve found that some products do leave my hair feeling (and looking) straggly and crunchy.

This appears to offer a lot in a tiny sachet. It’s got vitamin E, it’s paraben free, it adds sheen and eliminates dryness, and the fact that it’s got ‘healing’ in its name already makes it a winner in my book.

I’m not familiar with beeswax or its benefits, so I’ll be interested to see what this does to my hair and whether or not it’s worth a buy.

As packaging goes, I can’t really tell a whole lot about this one, but then maybe it means it’ll end up being the best?

Another anti-breakage product that I’ll be banking on to repair my hair. The packaging on this looks similar to products I used growing up, so I’ll see how this one works.

Of all the samples, this is my favourite package, and I think it’s for this reason that I’m most excited about using this product. This leave-in detangling hair treatment has coconut water, which by now we’re all more than aware of its hair and body benefits, such as hydrating and moisturising.
