Today I want to share a hair product that has changed my life!  I got a sample of this little gem in my Birchbox last year & it sat in my maybe-I’ll-try-this-later box of samples for a few weeks.  I have super fine hair that tends toward oily, so I’m always suspicious of leave-in treatments.  They tend to weigh my hair down and/or make it look greasy.  After a friend, who has a similar hair type, raved about the Beauty Protector – Protect & Detangle, I decided to give it a try.  I’ve been using it daily ever since & cannot praise it enough!

First, it smells great!  While not critical, it’s always a nice treat to have good-smelling products.

Second, it detangles!  My fine hair tangles up instantly when I get out of the shower.  I’m trying to grow out my  hair some more, so it’s important to protect against breakage that can occur when combing out wet hair.  Protect & Detangle makes it so much easier & less painful to manage my wet hair.

Third, it protects!  If I’m going to wear my hair down, I have to wash it in the morning.  Washing at night only leads to oily, unmanageable hair in the am, & a ponytail.  Washing in the am also means I have to blow-dry it almost daily to avoid going to work with wet hair.  Protect & Detangle has reduced the broken/split ends & fly-aways that come with constant blow drying, plus it helps protect the color from heat.

Fourth, it lightly conditions!  As I said, my fine hair leans toward oily, so I can’t deal with heavy conditioners.  They also tend to weigh my hair down. With Protect & Detangle, even after blow-drying, my color-treated hair is soft & shiny.  It’s lightweight so I don’t feel like I lose any volume either.

Finally, it’s versatile!  I use it daily on wet hair to detangle & protect before blowing drying.  But, it has also come in handy to detangle dry, windblown hair before brushing out.
