Andrew Barton SOS Help Me! Twice a Week Conditioner

My hair is in such bad condition lately. I know I've only got myself to blame, as I dye my hair way too often, and use way too much heat on it, but split ends and dry hair still annoy me. I have been using this for a few weeks now, and I have really noticed a difference in my hair, so I thought I'd share it with you all.
 
 
 
 
"The Superstar of hair treatments for when hair needs SOS care". This is a deep conditioning treatment which is supposed to be used twice weekly to "gently mend all the cracks, sooth the hair cuticles and add supercharged shine".
 
First things, this smells AMAZING. I can't put my finger on exactly what it smells like though - it's sweet and almost vanillary, but it literally smells good enough to eat. It also leaves your hair smelling like this all day too, which I love.
 
This has quite a thick consistency, and it's not the easiest thing to work into your hair, but aside from that I have nothing bad to say about this. It genuinely leaves your hair feeling super soft, and I have noticed that my hair looks less damaged and flyaway.
 
I apply this twice a week as suggested, and leave it on for around 5 minutes before rinsing. Like I said, I have been using this for a few weeks now and I absolutely love it.
 
I would really recommend this to anyone with damaged hair, and even better, it's super cheap too!
 
This is available from Asda - £3.00 for 300ml.

Andrew Barton Hair Products

Firstly, apologies for the lack of posts over the weekend, I've been super busy but I think now I am back into the swing of things :)

Today I have for you 3 hair products that I actually recieved for Christmas but I completely forgot about until about 2 weeks ago. They are Andrew Barton Gloss Boss Shampoo, Gloss Boss Conditioner and The Straight Answer Protection Spray.




The products are from Andrew Barton's "Shiny Happy Hair" collection, and the claims
 they make are "a collection of no fuss, no nonsense hair products that work" and "leaves your hair feeling magical and gorgeous". The products in this range don't have a very strong smell, just a light, pleasant, kind of floral-y one, which is nice.

I have been using these 3 for about 2 weeks now, and I have noticed a difference in my hair. After washing, my hair feels soft and looks shiny, which is the claim the products make. I tried using the shampoo without the conditioner afterwards to see what effect the shampoo had on its own, and while my hair still felt soft, I think you would need to use the conditioner from the range as well to see the full benefits. The heat protection spray is the product I like the most out of these. I straighten my hair almost every day and it's fair to say it's not in the best condition. Since using the spray, I have noticed that while my hair has not got any better, it certainly has not got worse, which I am positive it would have done if I wasn't using the spray. I'm actually getting my hair cut at the weekend so I will see if the spray still works wonders once my split ends have been chopped off :).

There are quite a few Andrew Barton collections, and I also have tried the "SOS Help Me" one, which I thought was really good too. If you are interested in these products, they are available at ASDA; the shampoo retails for £4.00 for 400ml, the conditioner is £4.00 for 250ml and the heat protection spray is £4.00 for 250ml. They are currently in ASDA's 2 for £6.00 event though so if you would like them, stock up now :)

What do you think? Have you tried these products?
