Bed Head - Tigi products review

I don't know how often I mention this on my blog, but I absolutely love Bed head products! I have a few other products, such as the 'control freak' serum which I also highly recommend! But these 3 are by far my favourite products that I have tried so far, and a included them in a hair of the day post a bit ago and was asked if I could do a review of them, so here you go... I get round to everything eventually ;)

Ego Boost - This product is a life (well hair) saver for me! It's a leave in conditioner and split end mender that leaves my hair feeling so soft and it smells amazing. (I hope I don't sound like an advert hehe) I apply 1-2 pumps to the ends of my hair after I have towel dried it and brushed it through. I really have noticed that my split ends look nowhere near as bad as they did and it has also prevented anymore from appearing, which is just amazing as I hate to get my hair cut. It doesn't make me my hair feel sticky in the slightest, it just leaves it so soft and smelling delicious!

After Party - I love to use this product after I have just dried my hair or after I have straightened it. I aplly about a pea sized amount, which sounds very little but it really is all you need, because a little goes a long way.  It is a smoothing cream that adds shine, and again smells amazing! It basically gets rid off all of the little fly away hairs that are suddenly oh so noticeable when you stand under a bright light. This again is a product that I would highly recommend, especially if the ends of your hair feel quite dry and damaged. It makes my ends feel so much softer and silkier.

Headrush - This spray smells like heaven, if it came in perfume form... I would buy it! It is a shine spray that gets rid of static hair and makes it super shiny and according to Tigi 'adds depth to colour and highlights'. Now I haven't noticed that it adds depth to my colour, but maybe that works better for different hair types? But I definitely agree that it gets rid of static and makes my hair look really shiny and people have even told me that my hair smells nice, a slightly fruity but sweet scent, so it must work!

Overall I would highly recommend Tigi's Bedhead products as they have done wonders for my hair and are definitely worth the price! I know that you can buy sets of the products off ebay, perhaps if you didn't want to pay the full price. The bottles also last such a long time, and you get a good amount for the price.

Olsen Inspired Hair

I have always loved Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's hair! Unfortunately my hair just seems to go frizzy when I try to go for that bed-head, loose curls look, but today I managed to tame the frizz and achieve something slightly similar (I think anyway) So I thought I would do a bit of a hair of the day and show you all how I achieved this look...

Products I used - 
♥ Bed head ego boost- leave in conditioner
♥ Schwarzkopf got2b guardian angel - heat protector
♥ Bed head - head rush
♥ Bed head - uptight (heat activated curl maker)

I washed my hair, then towel dried it and applied the leave in conditioner  and heat protector through the ends. I then dried my hair normally and brushed it through (otherwise my hair just turns to a frizzy mess - not pretty!) After drying it, I scrunched it with my fingers to create a tousled look, and then applied some more heat protector and the bed head uptight. I used my Babyliss curling wand and just wrapped random pieces of hair around it to create some messy but loose curls. Then to finish it off I just sprayed my hair with the head rush spray which adds shine and reduces friziness, and it smells AMAZING! That's it for what I did, I hope you liked it and it doesn't just look like I haven't brushed my hair in a few days. 
(p.s - the top picture is before I went in to school for a revision session, and the second picture is a bit later which is why its a little more poofy/frizzy. Also sorry for the bad quality photos but I couldn't get them to look right when taking them on my camera, so I used the webcam)
