This duo, really, has done wonders for my hair. Every time I use them, my hair just feels stronger and I notice much less hair fall during the days right after. Now, you know, about 100 hairs a day falling out of your hair is pretty normal but when you have hair as long as mine, that ball of shed hair can look pretty scary. I, for one, am really glad when it's smaller!
The shampoo is lush, without being too thick and lathers so well, leaving my scalp feeling clean and my hair feeling soft and not at all stripped. Even my ends, which inevitably feel pretty brittle after a good shampoo, don't feel as rough.
The conditioner I love even more than the shampoo! It's light and almost frothy, which makes it perfect for the summer months when you want to condition but don't want to saturate your hair with product. I can work this into my hair and rinse off, leaving my hair feeling silky, smooth and...light! Not weighed down at all.
Now, for my favorite part...the scent! Fragrance is a big deal to me and I always want this massive veil of hair to smell good. And this duo does! Sweet with a light peppermint candy fragrance, this duo leaves my hair smelling good enough to eat! Huge win in my book!

I think I've mentioned quite a few times about how lazy I am and usually resort to air-drying my hair because...well, drying my hair is a lot of work! Not only is it wast-length but pretty thick. I have to really crank up the heat on my hair-dryer and my hot air styler to get my hair dry all the way through and that too, for a good 30 minutes. Ouch. All that heat can fry a girl's hair and that's one fried thing I'm not really fond of. I ALWAYS use a heat protectant serum or lotion when I make the effort to style my hair with heat but unfortunately, some just don't work so well for me. They either leave a sticky residue or make my hair too frizzy or my scalp too greasy. I'm thrilled to say this lotion does none of those things! I use just a quarter-sized amount on my hair, roots to tips and style as usual. Bye, bye, frizz! Hello, smoother, silkier, totally not fried hair!
MIRACLE CREATOR ($16.00)
Miracle Creator Multi-Tasking Treatment has 20 beautifying benefits for your hair: leave in nourishment, boosts shine, smoothes the cuticle, prevents breakage and heat damage, and more!
This leave-in treatment is my go-to on those days when forget conditioning, I don't even bother drying my hair before I fall into bed exhausted. Trust me, there have been many of those days! This little spray, and let me just pause to say that I LOVE that it's a spray, has been a life-saver on those days! I've sprayed a fine mist of this stuff all over my towel-dried hair and just gone to bed. I wake up the next morning with my hair feeling softer, with much less frizz than I would if I had just gone to bed after only a shampoo, and NO sticky residue! It truly makes me feel like I'm taking care of my hair even when I putting in the bare minimum of effort! Oh and yes! This smells lovely too!
SO LONG DAMAGE BREAK FIX ($16.00)
So Long Damage Break Fix Leave-In Elixir performs a fiber reconstruction to help repair damage for totally strong hair with less breakage*
Instantly resurfaces brittle, long strands as it recharges healthy shine.
Another leave-in treatment, I have to admit I reached for this one a little less than the Miracle Creator above. Why? Because it's a lotion and they make me a little more wary than sprays. I mean, sprays are so much more convenient and easy-to-use, right? Right. But I did try this out a couple of times, mainly just concentrating on my brittle ends and it does almost instantly smooth out frayed ends. If you have very dry, brittle or damaged ends, this will be a fabulous addition to your hair care routine.
MIRACLE EXTENDER ($16.00)
Miracle Extender refreshes hair and absorbs oil to revive your second-day look.
Let me just start off by saying...I LOVE DRY SHAMPOO. It is the one hair care product I truly cannot live without. Like I've whined about a bazillion times, my scalp gets greasy after like 4 hours outside and I really do not have the time, patience or energy to be washing my hair every day. So, dry shampoo is a miracle of modern-day beauty technology and I, for one, am truly grateful for it. But not all of them work for me. Some make my hair too dry while others leave behind a residue that defeats the purpose. This works perfectly! It just soaks up all that extra grease from my scalp and the hair around the crown of my head and leaves my hair manageable for another day or two. Plus it smells like candy, much like the shampoo and conditioner! You can say that I'm totally sold on this bright pink miracle bottle!
Final thoughts : I can't tell you how glad I am that there is a line especially formulated for long hair, which, if you have long hair yourself, know has its own unique set of challenges. There are several products in this line which I know I will keep using and the candy fragrance has got me hooked! And for the price, I'd say this was a great line to add to your hair care routine!
So there you have it, my darlings! Matrix products are available at fine retailers and mass merchandisers nationwide, such as JCP salons and Beauty Brands, across the US as well as your local Ulta. To find a retailer near you, please visit Matrix's website HERE.

ReplyDeleteThe fragrance sounds wonderful like I would love it... but I have a hard time with Matrix products, they tend to dry out my scalp. I haven't tried this particular line though so it may work for me.
