LiQWD gold

Or at least you would think so at the price! No, LiQWD is fantastic, it is just really pricy. I was at my lovely hair dressers yesterday having my hair cut and coloured, but I also needed to stock up on my LiQWD volumizing spray.

Besides being expensive this is an amazing product. I have used it for about 2 years now and have no plans to stop in the near future.

I have super fine hair and keep it short ( i.e. pixi cut, think Michelle William and Ginnifer Goodwin) so I need all the volume and structure I can get.

I also use their other styling product called SLiQWD which is a gel-like product and I use their volumizing shampoo and conditioner as well. So all in all, for my hair I only use their products :) 

All their stuff is based on the Nano-Hydrosphere technology and if you read about their products it sounds like they can more or less walk on water ;)

Like I said I love their products, they do wonders for my hair and the smell is AMAZING and I guess I don't know much (anything) about nano-tecnology, but I am always just a little bit "sceptical" when it comes to the claims of haircare and beauty products in general. And while LiQWD products are great, I personally find them to be a little more "of this world" than the packaging might suggests ;)

Blondes have more fun...with John Frieda

I recently rediscovered John Frieda's Sheer Blonde line that I used to use years ago. I purchased two products, the Go Blonder controlled lightening spray and the 3 Minute colour renew tone-booster.

I am what you call a colour-treated blonde. Naturally I am probably medium to dark blonde, but I get highlights approx. 4 times a year.

I have been using the lightening spray for when my roots start to show. This product goes onto towel dried hair and starts it's magic once heat is applied i.e. hairdreyer or the like, the more heat the lighter the result. This is a spray and easy to use, but this product is only for people who are naturally blonde as it does contain hydrogen peroxide. If you are a brunette looking to bleach your hair this is NOT the product to use.
And for blondes, please remember this is just like any other bleach that you use on your hair. This is not a product to use on a daily basis at all. I use this maybe once every 2 weeks when my roots start to show and I use it only to make the transition less harsh. So just be careful using this stuff as I think overuse could end up damaging the hair. I love this product as I can stretch the visits to my hairdresser just that little bit longer.

The 3 Minute tone-booster is a hair treatment that removes the brassy look (yellowish undertone) that colour treated hair gets after a while. I start using this product about 6+ weeks after I have had my hair coloured and I really think this puts the brightness back into my hair. I could perhaps do without the weird "lavender" smell, but it is such a minor detail when it otherwise does what is says on the bottle.

The treatment also leaves my very fine hair utterly soft and without any volume whatsoever..which I hate :) I look for volume any place I can with my haircare products, so I tend to shy way from stuff that leaves my hair too soft, which is why I use this treatment mostly on the days when I am just staying at home.
