Dove Rambutmu, Mahkotamu

Mahkotaku, hair is very crucial to every woman.  Hair represent her personality, hair gives the first impression and perception to everyone, hair is the most important asset for a woman. Since I was a little girl, I always wanted to have a very long hair up to waist length with healthy shine black look (dreaming) . When I get older, to keep hair longer than bra length is impossible because its keep falling off, damaged and dry .The scariest part is when you get into shower, you would find a 20 cent hair ball in your hand. Euwww! That is most terrifying moment and it would affecting your daily mood.  

Therefore when I received an invitation to their event for the Hair-fall topic discussion private event, I was so excited and agreed to join the event to find out the solution for my problem. I used to talk about this matter with my best friends and we keep asking each other, how to solve this issue? we are afraid of alopecia (bald), what kind of shampoo are you using? any recommendation? got tips for the hair growth and so on. we have a lot of things to discuss and talk. Well, it's girls problem.We just love to talk and share our problems together. Yet, there's no solution except for shampoo-ing hair once in two days time. 

 

Please excuse my stand quirky photo cause I just love taking photos. 

Do you ever faced hair fall issue? Do not refuse, because I know everyone is facing it including me. It is embarrassing to admit that I am facing this issue. Dove comes out with Hair Fall Rescue range for helping women who facing this problem and now the solution is here. The result visible in two weeks time. We would discuss more when we are getting into the topic. 

MASSAGE AND SPA SESSION

This is the part that I loved the most. Everyone gets 20-minute treat and get a chance to try on the Dove HairFall tonic by ourselves.  The feeling after putting it on, was damn good. I don't know how to describe it but it was pleasant. I wish I could go through the session for one more time and even apply the hair tonic all over again. 

PILLOW TALK SESSION

The event continued with a pillow talk session with the two talkactive celebrities Sharifah Shahira and Yasmin Hani with the special presence of two Dove ambassadors and  a motivation speaker. Basically this session is all about hair issues. It was a short discussion and problem sharing among us; celebrities as well as the two Dove ambassadors; Sharifah Nadia and Suhainah are best friends for almost 20 years. They normally share their beauty problems together from young until they had their own family and kids. Until one day, one of them had a problem of hair loss and she referred to her best friend on this issue. She notified the problem when she was in bathroom, conditioning her hair and found a clump of hair on her hand palm.

Have this ever happened to you? It is embarrassing to say it publicly but I admit that I faced this problem too. (face palm)

In the pillow talk session we discussed causes of hair fall.  

First is "Depression " or so do called "stress".  Women nowadays are career women and every day we are facing stress. Stress with works, family, friends, boss, traffic jam, stress to choose Raya family color theme, stress thinking of dinner menu for the family and many more. We are drowning in stress. Second is Nutrition. Our body lack of nutrition or it may be a sign that you're low on iron therefore hair root is not strong enough to hold. Third is eating lifestyle. Eating excessive oily food could caused hair fall.  Forth is Postpartum Hair loss.. After delivery, women would go through this phase of losing hair due to hormone changes. There's a lot of other reasons but these are the top main things.   

Followed by the solutions and tips shared by the girls (from both sides; the speakers as well as the floor)

1) Taking daily supplements and vitamins especially irons.
2) By using suitable shampoo . Dove Hair Fall Rescue range does helps to prevent from hair lose.  Even Sharifah Shahira and Yasmin Hanis had used Dove at home and they've seen the differences . This range contains Trichazole actives to LOCK in the nourishment, stregthen and protects hair against hair fall. It nourishes from roots up to tips to prevent from hair fall.

3) Drink plenty of plain water to keep your body hydrated.

4) Minimize the usage of heat hair tools and prevent from torturing hair with chemical styling products.

Pantene Pro V Total Damage Care 10 shampoo and conditioner review

Pantene Pro-V Shampoo and conditioner review. That is what I would be doing for today, a review on a set of Pantene hair care. Pantene Total Damage Care 10 is supposed to help to prevent the 10 signs of hair damage and reformulated to neutralize excessive oxidative minerals in hair. The main function of this new Pantene Pro V range is to give radiant, beautiful and shiny hair to the consumers. The Pantene hair Research Institute experts discovered that the build-up of excessive oxidative minerals in hair can have damaging effects on hair health. Oxidative minerals amplify the production of free radicals, which in turn leads to the fracture and erosion of proteins, weakening hair over time. 

Pantene is the first brand designed this formula to prevent protein erosion by minimizing mineral accumulation in hair. If you use continuously, mineral-induced oxidative stress declines , hair's protein are better preserved and hair condition can improve over time, ultimately giving you beautiful radiant and shiny hair.  The re-formulated Pantene Pro-V shampoo range with Keratin Damage Blocker technology includes color & perm lasting care, daily moisture repair, hair fall control and total damage care.

The consistency of the product is thick and it is the same like the other typical Pantene shampoo and conditioner, the color of the product is white. 

My short opinions on Pantene Pro V Total Damge Care 10 

First of all, I wanted to say that I love the typical Pantene scent cause it does smells like bubblegum taste. I don't know how to explain it but every time I use Pantene on my hair , the scent does stays whole day long and that is the reason why I am  so impressed with it. Next is the product itself, based on my experience,  I found that the shampoo works fine on me but I heard some people just can't use this brand as it doesn't suit on certain person however Pantene never let me down. By right I have no problem with this shampoo. I enjoyed using it mainly because of the scent, it does cleanse my scalp well and my hair got its weight after using the shampoo and conditioner together. 

Packaging: One word, simple.  nothing much to comment. once you look at the bottle , you  already know it is Pantene product. :) great branding packaging ya?

Price: 9.90 (170ml)
where to get: Watsons, Guardian , supermarket and many more.


Thank you for reading.

LUSH American Cream conditioner review

In the website American Cream Conditioner is mentioned as

"American Cream is our dreamy, medium-strength conditioner for soft, shiny, fragrant locks. Softening honey, scalp clarifying lavender and fresh oranges make a conditioner suitable for all hair types to soften rough ends and keep hair calm. Not to mention the absolutely delectable strawberry vanilla cream scent. Mark was inspired by a vision of 1950s US milk bars, where teenagers would meet and drink frothy, creamy milkshakes. He concocted our best-selling conditioner to soften and control, and evoke memories of poodle skirts and jukeboxes. No wonder it remains such a customer favorite year after year!"

First at all, you need to know that my opinions and review are based on my hair typed. It may works vary depending on you types of hair and weather condition.
I'm living in Malaysia where the weather is humid, hot (not warm anymore) and lies in equatorial region. Nevertheless my hair is kind of weird and different from others. I have frizzy hair,natural wavy,  thin (light-weighted hair almost similar to baby hair typed), very very very extremely dry hair and have dark brown hair color even though I have not dye-ing my hair for 2 years, my hair is still brown and some people said that I dyed my hair. I don't care what people say but anyway I did use henna sometimes at the root of the hair to cover my grey hair :P I know I'm 23, I have baby face that make me look like 16 but my hair make me look 30 years older.

Okay, lets get back to the main point. American  Cream conditioner, it is one of the popular products from Lush and I bought it because of MissGlamorazzi , youtube guru (real name is Ingrid Nilsen). She loves this conditioner so much and said that it would lasts all day long with strong pleasant scent. Thank you for the big influence! Oh Boy! From there my mind was into to this conditioner. I just need something that help my hair to stay fresh and smell great.  For some reason, I have a weird habit to smell my own hair when I'm bored. hahaha. That's the reason why I have long hair, addicted to smell my own hair. haha so gross!
Reference: MISS GLAMORAZZI's video for TOP 10 Lush Products

Normally I would use this conditioner together with hair mask to get well-nourished hair with perfect strong hair smell. The scent of this conditioner could overcome the hair mask scent therefore I feel like putting perfume conditioner onto my hair. 

American Dream (Perfume conditioner) + hair mask ( perfect moisturizer for my hair) and leave it for few minutes and rinse it out. My hair just need extra care and moisturizer since it is so dry, believe me, VERY VERY VERY DRY and frizzy.  One-minute hair mask would be perfect for me. Overall, what I can summarized is, this conditioner smells great and has strong scented smell.. I call this conditioner as Perfume scented conditioner. 

First Impression: At first, I was scared with the smell cause I thought it gonna smell very strong and would drives me dizzy/ big impact of headache (so dramatic) but after using it, I'm kind of liked it.

Texture: Very thick and has strong smell. I just need 50 cent size of it to get one full head smell.

Does this conditioner moisturize your hair?

For my hair, nay. Maybe it does moisturized my hair about 20-30% but not fully moisturized like other normal hair conditioners/ masks. However, I believe for oily and healthy hair typed, this conditioner would works great and nourished enough to them.

The scent longevity: Can last all day long except if you're staying couple of hours in mamak stall. 

Satisfaction: 3/5

Reason: I just wish the it would be less expensive and more moisturizing. Overall I liked it, it can lasts forever cause I just need tiny mini size of it to cover my whole hair. This is my ultimate "perfume hair treatment" in-a-bottle. 

I got it from Lush Singapore, ordered from a friend of mine, best friend actually, Shaza Amalina. Thanks babe!
