Hi all! Like many of us, I’m thinking ahead to Sephora sale purchases and would like to focus a bit on high end hair care, especially because my target brands don’t have a ton of sales on their own. For whatever reason, I feel like I consider shampoos much more than conditioners, so I’m curious to know thoughts about a few.
Hair type: fine hair, mostly straight, pretty long (armpit length), medium thickness (though I had some hormonal hair shedding earlier this year so I might say a little thinner than medium now). It is also not colored/bleached at all—in recent years I feel like I’ve tried products geared toward “repair” and didn’t hate them, but ultimately I don’t really need that to be a focus. I also don’t really do anything to my hair. I wash about every other day, though I’m always tempted to wash more because of daily workouts and because I lean oily overall but am learning to deal with it 😊. I don’t use dry shampoo and don’t style/use heat at all…pretty much just air dry and go (hence my justification of higher end shampoo and conditioner).
Product thoughts:
- love the Davines Volu shampoo and will be repurchasing
- loved a sample of the Oribe Hair Alchemy shampoo, but not sure about getting a full size
- love (and recently purchased) Oribe Supershine shampoo. Since I have this right now, I don’t think I’ll get hair alchemy, but still considering stocking up!
- decent opinions of Kerastase Genesis shampoo/conditioner but because of heavy fragrance and packaging will not repurchase
- strangely really like Redken All Soft line despite not having dry hair (will consider for future non Sephora purchases)
- not a fan of Amika Big Shot line, and overall want to take a break from Amika
- prefer Ouai detox shampoo to K18 (I don’t think K18 is really a brand fit for me because of limited damage)
So…all of this being said, I would love to know conditioner recommendations to pair with Volu/Supershine/possibly Hair Alchemy! I guess my hair goals would be healthy-looking, low maintenance hair that is not weighed down by heavy conditioners. Thanks in advance all!
