Healthy Blonde Hair | Pureology "PERFECT 4 PLATINUM"

I have been a blonde for three years, and during that time I have made a lot of mistakes caring for it along the way.  Whether it be using the wrong products, or not using the products necessary to keep my hair healthy, I have learned from these mistakes.  The most important lesson I have learned along the way is that the foundation of healthy hair begins when you wash it.  I have tried using inexpensive shampoos and conditioners to try to save money, but that only leads to added damage.

 My hair is my most expensive accessory, and I am willing to pay to maintain it.   This is why I love the Pureology line.  I have recently been using their "PERFECT 4 PLATINUM" line, and my golden locks thank me for it!  Whenever I wash my hair with drugstore brand shampoos or conditioners, I can feel the moisture being sucked out of my hair.  It feels straw-like, and it makes managing it impossible.  I also get "fur balls" that collect around the shower drain with cheaper brands.

 That is the first thing I noticed when I started using Pureology products, my hair stayed on my head.  I hated snaking the drain, and I do it less frequently now.  The conditioner keeps my hair soft, and hydrated!  If you must choose between the two, go with the conditioner, because properly moisturizing your hair is key! Finally, bottle blondes pay a lot for bright, shiny hair, and this duo keeps that color as vibrant as the day you walked out of the salon.

I might not seem like it, but I am frugal when it comes to beauty products and hair care.  I only purchase these products when I come across a coupon, and I know these products will last me 4-6 months, the shampoo even longer.


For those who don't feel like reading the whole post, I've made a quick and easy read for you!!

1.  Pureology rocks
2.  Locks in moisture
3.  No "fur balls" collecting around the drain
4.  Color stays vibrant

Whip my Hair (Don't Wash) Pt. Three Strikes you're OUT!!!

I have failed.  After attempting a week without washing, I didn't make it past three days.  In my defense, the shampoo I use is free of sulfates, and I am surprised I didn't find a twig in the rats nest that my hair had become.  But while I may have succumbed to soft, clean hair, what better time than now to let you know the products I use to keep my hair soft and healthy!

Let's start off with my shampoo.  Yes, I splurge on Pureology.  Yes, I buy the 33.8oz bottle, it's a much better bargain and lasts from 6-8 months!  When I started using this, the first thing I noticed is that I wasn't getting hairballs in the shower (gross, I know).  It also made my hair softer, and has a great lather to it.  PS- It's vegan AND sulfate free!!

This conditioner is from Pureology's HYDRATE line.  This stuff is full of minty goodness that leaves yourself feeling as though you're receiving a scalp massage while you're conditioning your hair.  Talk about a one-two punch! :)

Moroccan Oil is the holy grail of styling products.  Having platinum blonde hair means that you've gotta pay out the nose to keep your hair hydrated.  Not only does this product keep my hair from looking like a bail of hay, but it adds a nice glossy sheen to it! :)

Well, there you have it, these are a few products I use to keep my hair clean and soft.  If I am being honest, I have no regrets in washing my hair, it just makes me feel clean inside and out.

What products do you guys use to keep your hair healthy and clean?
