This ‘pre-styling mist’ has apparently been formulated for dry, course or brittle hair – it softens and detangles while eliminating frizz, protecting against breakage, heat damage and UV damage. The days I use this, I do feel my hair is a little less tameable and a little more frizzy. I was initially surprised by this conditioner, as it’s not as rich as I expected it to be but in hindsight, it makes sense – B&B hugely emphasise the fact it uses lightweight oils, and there is no mention anywhere that it is deeply moisturising. It’s a nice conditioner, but I personally feel that I need something a bit more intensive to combat my dryness and frizz. I only use shampoo on the top half of my hair, as that is where the oil is, and allow the water that runs down to cleanse the rest of my hair so I just don’t see the point in spending a lot on shampoo.Īgain, the smell of this is perfect. In my opinion, it’s the conditioner and styling products you use that really affect the condition of your hair, especially if you do choose sulphate free products. I don’t mind shampooing twice when there’s no sulphates involved, and actually I find that all sulphate shampoo needs to be repeated if you want to feel particularly clean. It doesn’t foam up very much, due to the sulphate free situation, so I find it works best if I work a tiny bit in my hair, add water, lather it up and repeat. I’m not a massive shampoo connoisseur, if I’m honest, but as far as they go this is decent. Good marketing, Bumble! The whole range is designed to protect your hair, soften, detangle and defrizz, whilst remaining lightweight and not bogging your hair down. I have deduced that the primer is just a heat protectant, and they’ve called it a primer because primer’s are seen as such an important step in the beauty world. I got the full sized shampoo and conditioner, and a travel set which included a mini shampoo, mini conditioner and primer. I still am not totally happy using silicones every time I wash my hair, so I’ve been alternating between these and my Naked Rescue shampoo and conditioner, which I bought on Fragrance Direct for under £2 each after my Green People free from products ran out. How do I know this, you ask? Well, normally silicone (anything ending with -cone) is the fourth or fifth ingredient in conditioners, but it’s crazy low down the list for the Invisible Oil conditioner. Thankfully, the Bumble & Bumble Hairdressers Invisible Oil range is sulphate free, and although there are silicones in the conditioner, it’s a lot less than in normal products. Let me explain – I asked for it before I cut silicones and sulphates out of my hair care routine, so I was instantly gutted thinking that I’d have to sabotage my new hair care in order to use my new products. I have accepted that some things, like Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation and Glamglow Supermud, will be on my wish list a VERY long time before I get to try them, but I did really want to try B&B so I added it to my Christmas wish list early on, and then promptly forgot about it so I was nicely surprised but also a bit annoyed when I got it. You’ve probably noticed that happens a lot to me. I’ve wanted to try Bumble & Bumble since, I don’t know, forever! But at £47 for a shampoo and conditioner, my bank account said no.
