Why Change to MooGoo
I bought this shampoo and conditioner after noticing red, flakey patches in my daughters scalp. I try not to wash her hair too often because she has curly hair, so I only wash it once or twice a week.
Final Verdict
After only a few washes the red, flakey patches were gone. I have also noticed that it really helps encourage both of my daughters’ curly hair. The shampoo lathers up really well and feels squeaky clean once washed off, and the conditioner made the hair feel silky and soft. Both the shampoo and conditioner smell really nice and natural. The other great thing about some of the MooGoo products is that you can purchase large, refill pouches that are 100% recyclable, helping to save on plastic.
Where to Buy
I purchased these directly from MooGooSkincare.co.uk. They also offer a Loyalty Program where you can earn £5 for every £50 spent!
Nioxin Diaboost: The Hair Thickening Treatment
A new hair thickening treatment from Nioxin that is supposed to target and increase the diameter of each hair strand making the hair look thicker, more manageable and stronger against breakages from the very first use. The link below is a great demonstration from Nioxin on how to apply the Diaboost to wet hair and demonstrate what you should be able to achieve by applying the product to one side of the head so you can see the results for yourself.
My Thoughts on the Product
On receiving my Nioxin Diaboost trial kit from SuperSavvyMe SavvyCircle, I thought the product was packaged nicely. SuperSavvyMe supplied their usual insiders information booklet which had some great tips and info on the product.
The treatment itself looks as though it’s a serum, which it isn’t, and using a pump spray it was easy to apply to the hair – wet or dry. The product didn’t leave my hair feeling or looking greasy but did require massaging into the scalp until the hair felt dry (if applying to dry hair).
On applying the product to the hair you get this really nice smell, a smell that I have always associated with a top hair salons – and I’m not talking about the horrible smell of perms and peroxide! After massaging the product into the hair, I couldn’t quite see the volume but could feel that it felt thicker when combing the hair. My hair felt and looked so much smoother and I found that I could use it every day without it making my hair greasy.
What Other People Thought
The feedback I have had from friends and family, who sampled the Nioxin Diaboost treatment, was that it made their hair feel and look a lot softer and that the treatment smells really nice. As you can see from all the before and after photos below, their hair looks so much smoother and less fly-away.
With photo #2, this lady was very concerned about her hair being thin and you can see in the after photo the crown is less visible, and photo #6 looks so much more thicker.
But the feedback about the £39.99 price tag did make people think again about purchasing the product despite some of the obvious advantages!
Conclusion
Would I purchase this product? Well… yes and no! It did make my hair feel thicker and made it look and feel smoother but I don’t know if I would personally spend £40 on a hair product. That being said, if my hair was thin or in bad condition then yes I probably would buy it.
