Pureology Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner Review

I typically have issues with an itchy scalp so I have to be careful what products to use. Someone I was speaking with insisted I try Pureology products and at this stage I was willing to try anything so I gave it a go.

I will not look back. Not only does it not give me an itchy scalp, my salon-dyed copper hair looks super vibrant and my hair is just so smooth. The light eucalyptus smell is really nice as well.

I have the giant bottle which has a flip cap but I would really rather a pump because so much product comes out. You really do not need much at all. The strong lather helps it spread super far so a little goes a long way. I let the shampoo sit in my hair for a minute before rinsing out. I used to shampoo my hair twice but with this product I find it is not necessary. I use the conditioner just on the ends and let it sit for a minute before rinsing. I also follow up with the mask in the range and then a heat protecting spray, also a Pureology product, before I blow dry my hair. The overall results are fantastic.

Just as these products were recommended to me, I will recommend them to other people.

I was recommended the Pureology Hydrate range by a hairdresser years ago who used it on my thick, dry hair during an appointment. It was the beautiful smell which led me to ask about it but I loved the fact it contains no sulfates and my hair just got softer and seemed healthier with continued usage. It's not something I can afford to buy all the time - salon products are the first to go for me when I have less disposable income, but it's a range I come back to again and again when I can afford it. I also appreciate that the bottles are also 50% made out of recycled plastic and the cap stays on tight in my gym bag.

After finishing my bottles of Pureology Strength Cure Shampoo and Conditioner and finding my previously straw like damaged strands nearly completely repaired, I was recommended this product by my hairdresser to help with the my hair's lingering dry curse.

All I can say is wow! After using this shampoo and conditioner once a week for the entirety of winter, my hair is now in the best condition it has ever been. It is actually soft and manageable! The shampoo and conditioner whilst very concentrated, when used sparingly, keeps my otherwise thick hair feeling light!

The only downfall I have found with this product is that my hair did result in a lot of build up when used for longer than 3 months at a time. I have found however that alternating between this product and the Smooth Perfection range to minimise the build up and leave my hair both incredibly smooth and nourished.

This shampoo and conditioner is now my number one holy grail hair item.

I was recommended this Shampoo and Conditioner a few years ago by a hairdresser. I was initially reluctant to try it due to its high price. These products are 100 % vegan.

Both the shampoo and conditioner come in a purple bottle with a dark purple flip lid. The design is such that it allows you to stand the bottles on their lids, prefect when running low.

The shampoo I would describe as a rich texture. It gives a good lather which surprised me initially because it doesn’t have any Sodium lauryl sulfate in it. (sudsing agent). It smells a bit usual for a shampoo I guess, a bit like licorice. I personally didn’t mind it but I can see it would not be for everyone. The formula is highly concentrated and a little goes a long way for both the shampoo and the conditioner. I applied this to my roots and to the top of my crown.

The results from the shampoo. I found this very moisturising on my hair, my hair felt soft, shiny and smooth with no fizz. I also found it left behind no residue. In terms of colour vibrancy it did an average job similar to other products I have used before.

The conditioner also has a rich texture similar I guess to a hair mask. It smells like peppermint. I used the conditioner from mid length- to the ends of my hair and left it on a few minutes before rinsing out.

The results from the condition. I found my hair very soft and relatively knot free. It works well in combination with the shampoo.

Overall a lovely set but pricey.

I was really excited to try this product as everyone and their mum seems to really like it. First off the smell.. Yuk! I couldn't stand it it's a familiar smell that I couldn't put my finger on. The packaging is probably the best thing about this product because the top is flat I can stand it upside down to get all the product in saying that I gave it to my mum when I was about halfway through. I don't have super damaged hair but I do heat style and dye it every 6-8 weeks and I'm terrible at getting hair cuts. From what it says on the bottle you only need a small amount but I had to put one wash through which didn't lather then go in again with the same amount (2 50cent pieces) to get a lather that is enough to clean my whole head of hair. It leaves my hair feeling stripped and the conditioner isn't hydrating at all. After washing my hair was shiny but quite dry and I had to wash every second day where as I normally would wash every 4 days.

This shampoo and conditioner is amazing! I have highlighted blonde hair and it is perfect for my hair, keeps it so hydrated and keeps the colour so bright and keeps it from going yellow. While it is on the expensive side for a shampoo and condition it is totally worth it as they last a long time. It leaves my hair feeling silky and smooth as well as nice and light, and definitely less frizzy which is always a bonus!
