K18 is here to repair! I am so happy with the results of the K18 hair mask. This leave in Hair Mask repairs damage and gives a flawless finish to your hair. I have very, very, long hair and I normally use a ton of conditioner in the shower. I was nervous about this product since it says not to condition and just to add 1 or 2 small pumps to towel dried hair. You let it sit for 4 minutes to activate and then move on with whatever styling and product you’d like. Somehow that small amount was enough to deeply condition and smooth my hair. I added a little more styling product and my finished hair had zero frizz. Not less, but zero! It uses a patented peptide technology to repair, restore, and strengthen hair. It goes deep into the inner layers of the hair that traditional products can not get to. So do the inner work…by fixing your hair 😉

of hair oil. Typology, a brand I’ve written about a few times, has gotten into hair care. They have a variety of hair and scalp treatments to check out. My favorite of their haircare is the Nourishing Hair Oil, made with Argan and 5% Pequi. This rich oil is designed to “restructure the hair fibers and protect against heat. Hair is left soft, shiny, and controlled.” It can be used on both dry and wet hair. It is not greasy or heavy. It’s extremely hydrating, and I was able to let my hair airdry without frizz. So get with Typology and get into better hair… 

Restorative_Butter_Masque_03_800x
is a haircare brand you should get to know. It was created to treat both the root causes and visible signs of aging. It allows for a “renewed follicle structure and texture for healthy lustrous, vibrant hair.” Overuse of chemicals, styling products and heat can cause follicles to shrink, and damage the hair structure and inflame the scalp. Of course, if aging is not an issue for your hair, this line is still going to give you the boost you’re looking for. I have been using their Hair Redemption Restorative Butter Masque. It has Vitamin E, Mango, Macadamia, Avocado, Cupuacu, and Murumuru Butters. I find my hair is more manageable and super soft and shiny. My hair feels lighter and fresher when I use it. It is safe for color, Keratin, and chemically treated hair. So get Better Not Younger for hair, and stick with the motto for your life….
