Best in Blonde: The Complete Provoke Touch of Silver Range!

For the blondes amongst you I am sure you all face the struggle to keep your locks more like the lady from the Timotei ad rather than Lisa Simpsons spiky yellow tresses. The battle against the yellow (or brassiness) is something all blonde ladies struggle with; you can’t just use any supermarket brand and hope for the best. Blonde hair is a big old pain in the arse to care for; but when done well nothing beats it! (For the record after years and years of being Peroxide I have now stepped over to the dark side; well the light brown side to be precise).

So you blonde lovelies, I bring you the cheap and cheerful range from Provoke, Touch of Silver, with a product to suit most needs! I have reviewed some of the range already; please do check out my take on the Shampoo and on the Dry shampoo.I’m currently using the Glamour Hairspray and I love it! Doesn’t leave the hair sticky, its easy to brush out and it provides great hold! Watch this space for a full review on it.  As you can tell from my reviews the twice a week shampoo didn’t cut the mustard for me but the dry shampoo is excellent.I currently have another blonde haired guinea pig putting the rest of the range to the test and will report back in due course.  In the meantime the folk over at Provoke have put together a handy guide to keep the yellow at bay, Hurrah! Check it out below.  Read on »

When they first arrived I saw the “No Sulphates” tag and immediately became terrified. Sure haven’t I only been lashing on sulphates in all different shapes and forms for years? Isn’t that what’s been keeping my bushy, knotty and frizzy hair somewhat clean? Read on »

Best in Blonde – Redken Extreme Anti Snap Treatment

Lifesaver in a bottle

Technically this product is suitable for any hair in distress but I felt I had to include it as it came to my rescue when I had a particularly disastrous home dye situation.

A couple of years back I did the stupidest thing I’ve ever done in my entire life. I dyed my hair brown, by myself, at home. I looked completely ridiculous and after a month decided enough was enough and wanted to go back blonde. So I bought a random blonde home dye in the local supermarket and Mam set to work restoring my hair back to its former glory. Except, my hair wasn’t restored to its former glory; quite the opposite in fact. Read on »
