I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Living Proof. I received product samples to facilitate my review and to thank me for my participation.
You may remember about a month ago I posted about trying out the Living Proof line. I had an awesome opportunity to try out this new hair product line, and as someone who always struggles with my hair since I spend so much time with it up running, I was excited to give it a go.
In case you missed my first post, you can find it here.
I started using the shampoo and conditioner every time I washed my hair. Since I have naturally curly hair I make sure to only wash my hair every other day. I wish I could go longer but with the amount I sweat and run it just doesn’t work out to go much longer than that.
The first thing I noticed is the smell. It is light, clean and PERFECT. It isn’t over powering or fruity, its simple and clean. The perfect smell in my opinion!
One thing I did notice was that all of their products smell the same. The shampoo, conditioner, conditioning streaming and styling creams all have the same unique smell. A small thing, but not something you find every day!
One of the products I loved the most though was the 5-in-1 styling treatment. I applied about a quarter size amount to my hair when it was damp before I blew it dry.
The 5-in-1 styling treatment is supposed to handle:
- Volume
- Smoothness
- Strength
- Conditioning
- Heat protection
- UV protection
- Static control
This is the perfect product for me because I don’t like having lots of product to put on my hair each day. Usually in the morning when I am getting ready I am short on time, so reading for only one product makes things a lot easier.
The product was SUPER light. It didn’t weight down my hair but it still added volume. If my hair still has volume after straightening it then you know the product is doing something right! On top of that, since I have naturally curly hair I often struggle with humidity issues but this seemed to keep that tamed down as well!
Here are some before and after pictures:
Before
As you can tell my hair is pretty ratty and curly naturally. I was really hoping that Living Proof would be able to bring some life back to it!
After
My hair is not only stronger but has grown quite substantially in the last month!
Not sure why it looks so light in the picture, but Living Proof has really turned around my hair and it’s overall health.
Overall, I give Living Proof an A+ and will absolutely continue buying this! As a runner I need something simple, easy to use and that doesn’t weigh down my hair or add any oil to it.
I was skeptical at first, but after using it for a month I have noticed a considerable difference in my hair! I seriously recommend this to anyone looking for a new product line!
