Miraculous Hair Products

Two Game Changing Products From OGX Hair
I recently discovered these two AMAZING hair products while shopping with my sister in Islamabad. I have been searching for the brand OGX in Lahore with no luck in finding them. So when i saw them at this shop in Islamabad i had to grab them! I just had to. And after using them for about a month now, I don't think i'll be using any other brand or product as much as i'll be using this one. 
Here's a picture of the two products i bought:


Now, first things first. My hair type. My hair are rough, overly treated by hair dyes, damaged and dry. Most of the days, they are just dead and dull and i have to put them in a bun. So i've been looking for some Keratin therapy and treatments for my hair. Why Keratin? because it defrizzes and smooths the hair. Keratin is a protein and a main ingredient in the outer layer of hair. So basically, my life saver. 
I have been wanting to get a keratin hair treatment from a good salon but haven't been able to yet, though i'm still considering in getting it, but until then, these two products that i bought are my two rescuers on my bad hair days. 
Seriously though, not over exaggerating, they really have changed the game for my hair. 

The first product is the 3 minute miraculous recovery hair mask:

You're suppose to be using this baby right after you shampoo, on damp hair. You apply it on, a small amount of it, from the roots to the ends, and leave it one for about 5 to 6 minutes. I would suggest you use a keratin shampoo with this. I use my keratin classic shampoo with this one, i found it in Jalal Sons lahore. It comes in this sleek looking purple colored bottle. Looks more like a wine bottle to me to be honest. Anyway, i will be posting all about that shampoo and other amazing shampoos to try in my next blog post. For until then, try finding the purple bottle in Jalal Sons. 
Coming back to talking about this mask, i say i have to give it a 9/10. On the results and everything. And when paired with the serum, these are my holy grail products for hair.
Here's a link to the actual product website: https://www.ogxbeauty.com/hair/keratin-oil/
I will post the link of the shop i bought them from as well at the end of the post.

The serum comes in a small bottle, like in this picture below:

This anti-breakage serum's main ingredient is Keratin as well. It does have coconut oil, Avocado oils, and cocoa butter in it too. I love how this serum smells and how it makes your hair smooth and silky as they dry. Yes, you apply this serum on damp hair as well. But i dont apply it right after i wash the mask. I apply it after i'm done with my shower and i have dried my hair with the towel. So they are dry, but not soaking wet. I apply a small amount on my palm, rub my palms together and then run my fingers through my hair. Applying to all and every part of my head. And then i let my hair dry. I have noticed that they dry straighter and silkier. 

So I have been using these two products once or even twice a week now and i'm guessing i'll be going to Islamabad soon for getting them again.

Now the store where i bought them from goes by the name Hayee's. It's in Jinnah Super and as far as i remember i had to go upstairs, a very narrow stairs that lead to the shop. But the shop from inside, you guys, it was heaven. Also to mention, they have all the imported makeup items, the one's that you find on Sephora and struggle to find here in Pakistan. 
Here's the link to their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/HayeesCosmetics/

Hair Care

Keratin Hair Care.
Dikson's Keratin Action, Shampoo and cream.

I know i'm late on my blog post (always am) but you know i always wait for something worth posting and something that is informative and helpful to you guys! So here it is, Hair care product review. This one's for Keratin treated hair, and also for damaged, dry, rough ones.


My hair are not Keratin treated, but i got these anyway. I wanted to try something new, I'm always trying something new, you guys know that, but when it comes to my hair, i like to stick to my favourite old shampoo (Finesse that is). But this time, i really wanted to buy these and try, and let's be honest, the expensive-looking sleek bottles made me go for it, lol. What's the worst that can happen, right? So anyway, i've been using them and i have to say, i like the results. My hair are not rough, they are more manageable, and healthier. So this was a good decision to get them. But, yes there's a but. They are expensive! each bottle is like PKR 1000 something. (can't remember the exact price, but if someone wanna know message me and i'll check and hit back)


Okay, tell you what, i'm thinking of getting or doing myself a keratin hair treatment, that is if i get the right material, i have been looking for it everywhere but couldn't find it! but i will, and once i get it done, i will be continuing using these two and will be updating you guys on how it works on kertain treated hair. Because so far, i'm very much satisfied with the result. 


The shampoo won't get much foamy or leathery, but they smell as expensive as they are. Unlike other shampoos, it doesn't dry your hair at all, and i may not recommend it for people with oily hair. As my hair are super dry, and frizzy, this shampoo and cream are my two new best friends! People with dry hair can totally trust Dikson's Keratin Action due. Tried and tested, you guys should give this a try! I don't think i have anything else to say, expect that i love you guys and i'm hope you find this review worth reading! xoxo

Hair Care

All you need to know!
Maintaining your hair is not an easy task, selecting the right products to use, from shampoos to Oils and conditioners can be very tricky. Knowing what type of hair you have is important in selecting products for hair. Hair is made of protein, so keeping a healthy diet is essential too. My post tells you about what you can do at home to get unbelievably beautiful hair! Also, it'll be guiding you about the right products you should be using.

For hair growth, may i present you the miracle mask! Trust me, this one's plain magic. I recently had my hair cut, Inverted bob, and not that i didn't like it or anything, but i wanted my hair to grow as fast as it can and with this mask, my hair happen to grow faster then ever! In like a month i noticed my hair growth was fast and my hair were thicker and fuller! You can see the difference in the picture below, two months later results. (p.s i know i gained weight in my second picture so ignore my fat face, haha)
Mask recipe is very simple, based on the fact that Mustard powder warms the skin of head and causes a rush of blood to the hair follicles.


Magic of Mustard powder.


Things you need:
2 tablespoons of dry Mustard powder
4 tblspns of hot water (not boiling)
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons of olive oil

Directions:
Add water to mustard powder till its smooth and mixed properly, add the yolk, mix, add oil and sugar and mix. Apply to the roots. You can use a thick brush to apply it evenly. Let the mask on for about an hour and then wash your hair with shampoo, twice to get every bit of the mask washed away. Do this twice every week and you'll be noticing the result in a month!

Next comes, Hair Repair Mask.
For softer, lighter hair, may i present you the hair repair mask that won't disappoint you, na-ah, it can't. I do this very often and this one's my favorite! It's very simple and has just three ingredients that you can easily find in your very own kitchen!


Things you need:
2 tbsp honey (organic)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Directions:
Mix all ingredients in a small bowl until they are well combined. On dry, unwashed hair, apply to the roots and through combing your hair distribute evenly. Clip you hair up and leave the mask on for an hour. Wash, shampoo well and use conditioner if you would like. Happy healthy hair!
