John Frieda Full Repair Deep Conditioner Review

At last a haircare range aimed specifically at heated appliance lovers that actually works. John Frieda’s Full Repair range consists of a shampoo, conditioner, hair mask, heat protective spray and a serum. Using Inca Inchi oil, the haircare range targets dry, heat-damaged tresses and helps to not only repair hair, but to protect it too.

Packed full of omega 3 and 6 and vitamin A and E, Inca Inchi oil is found in the Peruvian amazon and known for being one of the most beneficial and nutrient-rich oils around. The oil works on repairing hair both internally and externally to leave it feeling softer and smoother.

While all of the Full Repair range haircare products contain Inca Inchi oil and work wonders on tresses, it's the Full Repair Deep Conditioner that really stands out. With a lighter, looser consistency, the hair mask is easy to spread and comb through hair. Although the instructions recommend leaving the mask on for just 2-5 minutes, if your hair is feeling really dry and damaged leave it on for a least 10 minutes. Comb the mask through you tresses from root to tip and massage it into your scalp to get the most out of the formula.

After rinsing hair thoroughly and drying it, you'll feel a difference instantly. Hair feels softer, smoother and sleeker after just one use.

John Frieda’s Full Repair Deep Conditioner is £5.99 from Boots.com.

Rating: 10/10 - Whether you've got fine or thick tresses you'll feel the difference after just one wash with John Frieda's hair mask. It's one of the best affordable haircare products available at the moment and you get a lot of bang for your buck. 

Espa Pink Hair And Scalp Mud Review

If you’re looking for luxury then you’ll find it with Espa’s Pink Hair and Scalp Mud Mask. If keeping with the name it will come as no surprise that the mask is pink, but what is very pleasantly unexpected is the light fruit scent that comes with this haircare product courtesy of the apricot kernel oil.

As well as the scent, apricot kernel oil also works as a moisturising and softening ingredient and helps improve your scalps elasticity and resistance. Watercress extract is another key component in the formula and gives yours a deep cleanse without taking away the moisture.

The rich creamy texture makes Espa’s hair mask feel like an at-home spa treatment.

For the best results if you’re suffering with a dry scalp or want to give your tresses a moisture boost, spend at least three-minutes really massaging the mask into your scalp. Comb the product through the rest of your hair using your fingers to ensure an even coverage and leave on for 10 to 20 minutes.

Espa’s hair mask might be too rich for finer hair, so use sparingly and leave it on for a shorter amount of time otherwise hair can be left feeling flat.

Espa’s Pink Hair And Scalp Mud is £18 and available from Espaonline.com.

Rating: 6/10 – It’s a luxury hair mask, but it does come with a matching price tag.  

Ojon Dry Recovery Intensive Hydrating Hair Mask Review

There's something quite deceiving about hair masks that promise to transform and rehydrate hair in a matter of minutes, however Ojon might have just edged closer to the mark with it's Recovery Intensive Hydrating Hair Mask.

While it doesn't work complete miracles on dry and damaged tresses, hair is definitely easier to manage and comb through with just one use. Packed full of nourishing oils and ingredients such as Jojoba oil and shea butter, just from reading the packaging you can see why this product is good for hair. To get the best out of the hair mask though ignore the directions.

After shampooing, squeeze excess water out of your hair and, in small sections, run the mask through from root to tip with your fingers. Then massage into your scalp gently, leave on for five minutes and rinse thoroughly. If hair is super dry, use hair oil after towel drying, this will help lock in moisture and keep hair smooth.

Ojon's Recovery Intensive Hydrating Hair Mask will be available in the UK later this month. For more information visit Ojon.co.uk.

Rating: 7/10 - if the central heating dries out your hair, this is a great product to introduce into your weekly haircare routine.
