Get excited gals, because thicker, fuller, Xtra-Large hair can now be yours thanks to L’Oreal Fibrology – A new hair range that promises big things for thin hair! At a recent L’Oreal press launch, this range was by far the most talked about! Beauty editors and #bbloggers couldn’t seem to contain their excitement when the announcement was made that Fibrology would be hitting the shelves this April! I was particularly excited, since I have fine hair and only wish that it could be fuller! Well gals, I am happy to say, that I have tried this range and it absolutely is my hair’s new BFF! Hello XL Hair! The amazing thing about this range, is that it thickens the hair from the root. It doesn’t “add bulk” on the surface, so your hair remains shiny and full of life! It’s a godsend for thin hair and who better to endorse this range than the amazing Blake Lively – in all her crowning glory! It took 17 years of research and 8 years of testing to develop this range, with it’s “Magic” ingredient…. Filloxane Unlike other “thickening” ingredients, Filoxane doesn’t simply coat the root of your hair to make it appear thicker. It penetrates the hair fiber to expand it from the inside and amp up…

Schwartzkopf have recently launched their Ultimate Oil Elixir range. A complete hair care system, designed to treat dry and damaged hair with the powers of liquid keratin. Besides looking uber luxe, this range smells heavenly. It’s not suitable for very fine hair, so reviewing it on my own hair (which is very fine) probably won’t give the product a great review. However, as I love the GLISS Marrakesh Oil & Coconut range, which is more suitable for my hair type – I have great confidence in this range, for those of you that have thicker, courser hair that is in need of a little TLC. GLISS Ultimate Oil Elixir works as a hair repair system to renew and reinforce the hair structures. According to the press release, it helps to reduce hair breakage by up to 95%. The nourishing formula Ultimate Oil Elixir range consists of a Shampoo, Conditioner, Mask, Express-Repair Conditioner and Serum (that has visible golden particles). Have any of you guys tried out this range? Let me know your thoughts on it.

On hectic days like yesterday’s Manic Monday, I often have to get ready super-fast, so that I can squeeze as much work into the morning, before the day runs away from me! Know the feeling? One of the things I often cut short is my hair styling time! I don’t know about you girls, but my hair needs to be washed (and dried with a dryer) every single day. If it’s not, then halfway through the afternoon it starts looking limp and so not fabulous! So, I’m always looking for new products to make my hair stay clean, shiny and full of life, but I’d also like to get a day off from having to wash it every day (even though I do prefer it squeaky clean daily). Here are some new, exciting and never been featured before hair products that I’m enjoying right now. I have (most) of these sitting in my shower, and use them on different days depending on how my hair looks and feels at the time… To scroll through the selection, click the product thumbnails below or use the black arrow to the right to start the slideshow and read up on all of them…

Have you heard of Nioxin? It’s a full range of hair and scalp treatments that optimize the health of your scalp to give you great looking hair. Nioxin is a professional haircare system (sold only in salons) that does more than just clean your hair. It helps to remove all the gunk that clogs your hair follicle. This buildup, caused in part by day-to-day hair products, prevents your hair from getting the nourishment it needs to look shiny and beautifully healthy. With Nioxin, scalp care is at the forefront of their product development, and they believe that a healthy scalp requires the same attention and care as the skin on your face! A healthy scalp also helps to create healthy hair that shines, with a thicker, denser appearance. Recently we were spoiled by Nioxin and got to try out their 3-part-Systems for three different hair concerns; fine hair, thinning hair and weak hair. So we put these products to the test. Louise (left) and I (right) used Nioxin’s Starter Kit System 3 for fine, treated, normal to thin looking hair. “V” (middle) used Nioxin System 2 for noticeable thinning. All three of us, used only Nioxin on our hair for…

Yesterday I got to meet the lovely Janlyn from ghd for a quick cup of coffee and to check out the new range of products from ghd. I was already quite a fan of their old Thermodynamics range, and while I’m saddened that it will soon be replaced, it makes it all better to know that the new contenders are even better than before. So far, I’ve only tried out the new Style Curl Hold Spray on my hair, and if this one is anything to go by, then I’m almost sure Ill be a devotee of the new range pretty soon! So what’s new? Well, pretty much everything! The new range has a whole new look; it’s sleek, sexy and very glamorous, it actually looks like a ghd product!
