Happy Friday y’all! Anyone else just ready for the weekend?! We’re almost there!
I wanted to start a new series today called First Impressions Friday where I share recent new finds that are worthy of their own post! Whether it’s a new beauty product, new bottle of wine, new restaurant or spot, I feel like this is a fun way to highlight different things I’m loving in a cohesive way. I’m debating whether I want to do this weekly or bi-weekly so we’ll see!
First up on the roster is a combination of products you should use together that I’ve tried 3x now since getting last week and I know I say I’m obsessed with things but if you’re ever going to be influenced or listen to me THIS IS THE PRODUCT COMBO THAT SHOULD BE THE SELLING POINT. Introducing your latest haircare obsession for the absolute most softest hair known to man: Olaplex Shampoo 4, Conditioner 5, Bond Smoother 6, and Bonding Oil 7. Yes, I know it’s a lot but trust me, it’s worth it.
I’ve been a long time fan of the Bond Smoother 6 as a leave in treatment, but ever since adding in the shampoo, conditioner & oil I’ve been shook. The shampoo is super rich and lathers so well, and the conditioner is soft and almost mimics the leave in. But the oil is what does the damn thing and locks in all of the bonds from the other three products to work it’s magic. A small amount locks in the shine but smooths any breakage or flyaways. My hair feels like I just got out of my hair gal Jenn’s chair every single time I use it.
My fist impression: I knew I would like the other products since I loved the leave-in, but I was skeptical of the shampoo/conditioner. I’m not a huge fan nor buy into the hype with shampoos/conditioner so I didn’t think these would alter my hair so much, but I was quickly proven wrong. Hair oils are hit or miss on my hair, so again was skeptical. You can easily overuse a hair oil but so far I haven’t overused this one and I have a lot of hair! I try to focus on my mid-to-ends and around my crown/shaping my face.
What do y’all think? Have you tried anything from Olaplex before that you think I’d love? Let me know what you’re interested in seeing next! Have a great weekend y’all and thanks for reading!
