Christmas Suggestions #2

Dry Recovery set

There's no getting around it, Ojon products are expensive, especially if you haven't used them before and don't know if they work for you or not. But at the moment they are doing these fantastic three piece starter sets for only £15 and many other gift sets besides.

Damage Reverse

If you are struggling to find a gift for someone and you know they colour their hair or straighten it a lot I would recommend the Dry Recovery or Damage Reverse three piece starter sets. Restorative hair treatment which improves the condition of dry, damaged and coloured hair overnight, and then Hydrating shampoo and conditioner - this set would also be an amazing present for someone who is jetting off to somewhere hot as they won't take up too much room in a washbag.


I would also love the Volume advance three piece starter kit, also for £15 it volumises your hair without weighing it down and contains a pot of the wonderful Damage Reverse overnight treatment which will last you for ages and is worth the money on it's own. I'm addicted to it and would be very pleased to receive it as a present! xx

Stop Press!

Have just heard that if you take any empty shampoo/conditioner bottle into John Lewis on 29th September (next Thursday) they will fill it up with Ojon Damage Reverse Shampoo/Conditioner. Now if you've read my review on Ojon you'll see that my only problem with it was the price so this is very much worth doing if you can as you may be happy to pay £20 on shampoo but only if it works and you can never tell until you've tried it... now you have the chance. For more information I'd ring you're local John Lewis store xx

Ojon

A couple of months ago I raved about Kerastase products which had really helped my dyed, damaged hair. However, Kerastase is a hard habit to keep up when you are going freelance so I was really excited to be sent some Ojon Damage Reverse Restorative Shampoo and Conditioner to try out. Now, I've been sent hair products before that are supposed to help my hair and so far nothing has even come close to being as good as Kerastase or even doing anything but making my hair a bit fluffy.

Not so with Ojon - people have commented on how good my hair looks and although I usually hate it, I feel slightly like it coats my hair but rather than making it lack volume this helps it keep it's shape and so I've been using my straighteners less and less which means I'm not damaging my hair as much with them anymore either.

These products are rich in essential lipids and the Ojon oil repairs and seals damage hair, restoring shine, softness and manageability. Using naturally-derived raw ingredients found in the world's rain forests, responsibly sourced and providing an income to those who harvest them, a portion of the Ojon revenue goes to the Miskito Indian tribes to help preserve the rain forests and their traditional lifestyle.

As I mentioned before this is not a light product, it does feel like your hair is slightly coated so I spend a bit more time making sure it is really rinsed clear but I no longer need to use frizz ease or other restorative products and find that usually my volumiser still manages to give my hair it's usually body, but I think they probably aren't for everyone especially if you have fine hair.

Unfortunately there is a down side - the shampoo and conditioner range from between £20-£22 each which was not going to be the amazing cheap alternative I was hoping for. The only thing I can think is that by using this shampoo and conditioner I'm saving money on frizz ease and other heat and damage control products that I no longer need. I still think this is just too much for shampoo though no matter how good it is. But honestly I just don't think I can afford to use these even if they are great xx
