I’m writing about one of my favourite beauty topics this week - hair. And besides having a great cut, and giving your hair plenty of nourishment through a healthy diet, the products you use on your hair and scalp play a major role in how healthy and great it will ultimately look. I don’t have fine hair, but it can look flat from time to time, especially during the colder months when the life literally feels like its been sucked out of it. For some people, however, fine flat hair can be an ongoing problem. The French botanical company, Klorane, has come up with a solution - a trio of products which transforms fine, flat hair with a huge boost of volume. The Klorane Flax Fiber range has a Shampoo ($13.95 for 200ml/$29.95 for 400ml), a Conditioning Balm ($13.95/150ml) and to finish off any do, a Leave-In Spray ($19.95 for 125ml). The key ingredient in all three is flax fiber, which is cultivated in the southwest of France, and which possesses a wealth of polysaccharide-ride soluble fibres which Klorane says has been proven to increase hair volume by over 38 per cent in laboratory tests.
Each product in the range does a shared job, increasing volume, while also doing a lineup of individual jobs to leave your hair looking amazing. The Shampoo, which is lightweight and has a sweet, fruity aroma, cleanses hair thoroughly, leaving an imperceptible film around every hair strand to help coat and texturise it from scalp to end. Meanwhile the ultra-light, non-greasy Conditioning Balm easily detangles and smooths hair while preserving the volume; your hair is protected and shiny, as well as enjoying increased volume. Finally the Leave-In Spray uses a unique texturising powder made from a silicate base which is alcohol, paraben and silicone free, which makes blow drying your hair easier, and adds a final boost of volume as well as plenty of bounce. Any product which promises to add volume to my thick hair is worth testing, so I did just that and tried all three. All I can say is that they live up to all the claims, as well as being lovely products to use with nice formulas and aromas, and best of all, the Leave-In Spray picked up my roots and left my hair shiny and bouncy. All three products are great for travel, especially with the 200ml sized shampoo. Your hair will look great, and if you’ve got fine, flat hair, it won’t stay that way for long.
