A Natural Volumizing Recipe for Thinning Hair from Kiehl's.

The Ultimate Thickening Shampoo from Kiehl's is just what this girl totally needs.

I hate that my hair is thinning and that when I look at my Mother and how thin her hair has become - I really begin to worry. I am taking a stand to do what I can now. I want it nourished and do what I can to keep it looking as thick and healthy as possible. And thin as it may be, not too thin where I don't want it to be ten+ years from now. Enter this superb shampoo that is taking a permanent place on my shampoo shelf.

The formulation of this new addition to the Kiehl's line of fabulous hair care products, relies upon the benefits of an antioxidant-enriched formula. The formula is infused with a blend of thickening polymers (to help it stick) and an Omega-6 essential fatty acid to help fortify and texturize thinning hair. What I love about it is that my hair looks immediately thicker - without being weighed down. It smells divine, like a light refreshing mint, which I totally need for a pick me up in the morning too.

The only thing missing is the conditioner. I am very weird like that. I usually pair up a shampoo and conditioner that work together, unless I am adding a deep conditioner to the routine. I'll be waiting, Kiehl's.

Lovin' on L'Oreal Vive Pro.

I am finicky when it comes to hair care. Sure, I find some great products now and then, and while I certainly love the more expensive salon and higher end brands, my budget does not always allow for this splurge. I am constantly searching for great shampoos and conditioners at the drugstore, and I am happy to report I have found a line I am totally lovin' on. This is Vive Pro from L'Oreal.

In a selection of products made for specific hair needs, there is surely one for you.

Hydra Gloss - Hair is deeply conditioned with essential nutrients and shines with a high gloss finish. Hydra Gloss with Omega-Moisture Complex containing Omega 3 & 6, Royal Jelly and Olive Oil, adds advanced moisturizers and essential nutrients to condition hair.

Nutri Gloss - Helps curls shine brilliantly as strands are conditioned and smoothened to reflect light from root to tip. Nutri Gloss with a New Pearl Protein Complex infuses curls with a mirror shine and a soft cashmere touch:

Color Vive - This new and improved formulation of Color VIVE uses breakthrough anti-oxidant technology and 2 UV filters to seal in the vibrancy of your color-treated hair longer and protect it from fading.  The specially designed formula deeply moisturizes every strand and gently cleanses without stripping, fading or dulling color.  Keeps color truer, longer.

Glossy Volume - Fine, limp hair is injected with airy volume, body and glossy shine without weighing down hair. Glossy Volume with Weightless Plumping Complex adds airy volume and glossy shine.

Smooth Intense - Smooth Intense for Dry, Frizzy, or Rebellious Hair with Medium Texture smoothes the hair shaft for silky, sleek hair that is nourished and easier to manage.

I am pretty addicted to both the Nutri Gloss and Color Vive. I am not only using both the shampoo and conditioner, but my hair has been enjoying the Conditioning Treatment. I love to leave this on overnight, at least once a week, for the ultimate benefit. Love!
