Summer Haircare Discoveries Part 1

A lot of new and new to me summer haircare that I've discovered recently with some quick reviews!


The Unove Damage Repair Shampoo ($28; sephora.com) and Silk Hair Oil ($25; sephora.com) is a new haircare duo I've been using on rotation the past few weeks. It's a great balancing shampoo that cleanses without weighing hair down. The Silk Hair Oil is a thicker, but non sticky oil that works great as a pre-styling oil or as a finishing oil on dry hair. I do recommend using a clarifying shampoo once a week if you have a scalp that gets oil really quickly though.


The Kerasatase Gloss Absolu Frizz-Glaze Cream ($50; sephora.com) is a glossy, frizz control cream that is a great styling cream for all hair types. It is a new addition to the Gloss Absolu haircare line by Kerastase. The cream is super lightweight and helps add a nice, glossy sheen to hair. Much like everything else from Kerastase, this one too smells incredible and is one of my staple hair styling products now.


The Medicube Rosemary PRDN ($23 each; amazon.com) haircare line is perfect if you have hair loss, ageing hair or just want healthy regrowth and less breakage. The shampoo is very nice to cleanse and balance out the scalp. It also adds a nice volume and no flatness to hair. The conditioner, although lightweight, detangles well and smoothens the ends nicely.


The Olaplex No.3 Plus Complete Repair Treatment ($34 - $68; sephora.com) is a new addition to the Olaplex Bond Repair treatment line. The No.3 Plus is new and improved, easier version of the classic which I love. I use this pre shampoo and conditioner on wet hair, leave on for about3- 5 minutes and then wash off. It's a great product for damaged hair or to be used as part of routine hair maintenance. The new version is great for thicker hair and although I have fine, yet frizzy hair, I still found this to do the job just as well. I do think the newer one is a tad thicker and has more of a slip compared to the older formula. I'd absolutely recommend this as a quick and easy under 5 minute hair treatment.


Saltie is a brand new to me and their is a Deep Conditioning Vitamin Hair Mask ($21; amazon.com) is for all hair types. The texture feels more like a semi whipped cream, slightly thicker, still lightweight. It is a good mask to once or even twice a week. It did jot weigh my hair down and washes off easily without any residue. The ingredients are clean and the mask itself is great keeping hair soft and manageable.


Redken's Acidic Bonding range is amazing for anyone with damaged hair lacking strength and prone to breakage. The Acidic Bonding Concentrate 5 Minute Liquid Mask ($44; ulta.com) is a fantastic deep conditioning treatment that works in 5 minutes. I love to use this on days my hair feels super dry. Its a fantastic recovery treatment that leaves hair feeling super soft and nice. The Hair Bandage Balm ($46; ulta.com) for split ends is also another fabulous product that I like to use especially on my ends, post styling. It can also be used on the lengths as well and helps hair look super healthy and nice.


The Matrix Food For Soft Rich Hydrating Treatment Mask for Hair Repair ($45; ulta.com) is a great, rich hair mask for all hair types. I love this one especially after a clarifying shampoo since it is thick and very moisturizing. A little bit does a really long way with this mask and it is great to use once a week especially if you have fine hair like me that gets frizzy very quickly.
