TONI&GUY Cleanse Dry Shampoo Review

Here with another dry shampoo review! I'll be giving you guys my thoughts on the TONI&GUY Cleanse Dry Shampoo. I bought this one on a spontaneous buy while I was walking around Ulta. All I remember at that moment was looking at the TONI&GUY section, seeing this on the shelf, and I'm thinking to myself I got to try this cause I was in a need for a new dry shampoo. To be honest I didn't see the price for it and I wouldn't think it would be expensive but it ran up to be $16.99. It is way to pricy for me to spend on a dry shampoo but I really wanted to try it so I got it anyways.

I'm just going to get to the point about this one and I just want to say it doesn't work. It does not take away the oil at all. If you were to spray this in your hair it will still look oily and I think the point of dry shampoo is to make it look like you've taken a shower while taking away the excess oil. I have fine straight hair and I usually use dry shampoo on the 3rd and 4th day. Every time I use this dry shampoo I would always have to tie my hair up because my hair look so oily. I thought it was just the way I was using it so I've tried shaking it for a longer period of time, or spraying at a closer or farther distance and the result were all the same: oily looking hair. I would not suggest this product at all. Plus it is way to expensive for a dry shampoo. I think I've learn my lesson to research my products first before spontaneous buying them.

Tresemme Thermal Creations - 2 products

I want to talk about products that I've been loving a long time and thought I would share. I'll be giving you my opinions on two Tresemme products part of their Thermal Recovery collections. The first one being their heat protectant spray called Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray and the second one being Curl Activator Spray that help hold curls.

I've used Tresemme's Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray since high school, ever since I started watching hair tutorials on youtube. It is the perfect heat protectant that smells good and works like a charm! I remember this period of time when I used up all the product, and I was just to lazy to go buy another one, I continued to use hot tools on my hair and it just resulted me getting split ends because I didn't have a heat protectant. So having a heat protectant in your hair before you do any styling with hot tools is crucial so you don't damage your hair. Plus it leaves your hair smelling good. I have tried another kind of heat protectant that wasn't from Tresemme and it just didn't feel the same so I went back to Tresemme's Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray.

I don't know if it is just me but after I dyed my hair my hair just doesn't hold curls as well as it use to. I dyed my virgin hair and now my hair is damage from all the dyes I have done on it. One day when I was at Ulta I was repurchasing the Tresemme's Heat Tamer I spotted this product that says "Curl Activator Spray". I picked it up and read the description on the bottle and just then on that spot I just had to have this product. What I love about this product is that it isn't foam, its a liquid that you spray on your hair before you use a curling wand. So I can used this on my day two hair, or day three, or whenever I feel like it. And you know the best part is? It actually does what is says it does, it actually help hold curls. I was so happy to have found a product that helps me hold curls because hair spray was just not doing it for me. So if you have hair that wouldn't hold curls then get this! It is a must!!

With these two products they will protect your hair and at the same time help you style, they're such a powerful duo. It doesn't leave residue and doesn't weigh your hair down. Tresemme have made the perfect products and I am so grateful to them. :)

Review: Batiste Dry Shampoo

For those who do not know what dry shampoo is it is a substance that cleans your hair without the need of using water. So it is like having to clean your hair with the type of shampoo that does not require you to take a shower. Pretty convienent tool to have by your side if your the type who is trying not to damage your hair as much or if your hair naturally produces a lot of oils(due to overtime usage of products) then dry shampoo is for you.

I've been on the hunt for my HG dry shampoo but so far no luck but I wanted to give my two cents on this Batiste Dry Shampoo. First thing I like about this product is that it works if you shake it well enough. If you don't then it'll just leave white little flakes in your hair making it look like you have dandruff and we're not trying to achieve that. Other than that it works if shaken well. Also it is not to expensive so if you are looking for something cheap and does the job I think this one is it for you

The only down side about this clean and classic original is the smell. I don't really like the smell of it, but it beats others that I had. It smells like a strong detergent smell I'm not sure how to describe it but that is the best description I can give it. I chose this original because Batiste has other dry shampoos for certain hair colors and at the time I bought this I was changing my hair color a lot and I was afraid it'll leave color residue and I did not want it to show so I chose the original.

Overall I think this product is okay it gets the job done of having clean hair but I wouldn't say I'm crazy about this product. If I were to rate it, out of five, I would give it a 4 because it works well enough.

I'll continue on with my journey to find my HG dry shampoo but till then I have this bad boy to finish! Bye! ;)
