Being Blonde / All About My Hair!

Saturday 21 March 2015

Hey Everyone! Today I thought I'd share with you the products I'm currently using on my hair and how I keep it looking healthy! I will leave links to all of the products mentioned so you know where you can get them.


I'm currently getting my hair coloured around every 7 weeks. Usually my hairdresser will do half a head of highlights, focusing on the top, but every now and again I will go for a full head to make sure underneath is being seen too as well. I get a combination of the bleach/ash toned blonde and the more golden blonde, just so my hair isn't one block colour. I usually get her to trim my hair each time as well just to chop off any split ends. I always say to her that I want that whiter looking blonde for my end result, the one thing I cannot stand is brassy, yellow or orange looking blonde hair.

For toning my hair I absolutely love the 'Clean Blonde Violet Shampoo' by Fudge. I get mine from Amazon for £9.95 for 300ml, It lasts quite long as well so for me this is a good deal. I like to use this shampoo every other wash as it does tend to leave that purple tinge to the hair if left in too long. This is amazing at cancelling out those brassy tones and leaving the hair with a more white/silver tone to it. I highly doubt I will ever need to use another purple shampoo cause this really works for me. If you're looking for a purple shampoo that isn't too expensive, will last a long time and that will make your hair that whiter looking blonde definitely give this a go, you won't regret it.


Now I'm currently using the Bumble & Bumble Invisible Oil Sulfate free shampoo and conditioner and have nearly finished my first set. I love these, they leave my hair feeling fresh and silky smooth. Although it's a pain to wash out thoroughly the shampoo lathers up so fast and leaves your hair feeling squeaky clean, without drying it out. The conditioner I feel works best when left on the hair, for the longer the better. I usually work it into the lengths and ends of my hair and whatever's left on my hands I'll briefly run over the top of my head. I'll leave this on my hair for around 5-8 minutes before washing it out. I then leave my hair in a towel for around 25-30 minutes to begin the drying process to minimise the amount of heat I need to use. I'll cover my hair in the Bumble & Bumble Invisible Oil Heat Protective Primer and gently brush it out with my Tangle Teezer. Once dried and straightened my hair has never felt so soft. I get my products from Boots, the shampoo is £23, the conditioner is £25 and last but not least the primer is £19. Definitely worth the splurge, especially if you're blonde and looking for some better quality products to keep your hair looking healthy.

I also recently picked up the Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment, on the recommendation of Miss Budget Beauty's recent hair care video. This was £8.49 from Boots. I can't wait to try this out and see what difference it makes to my hair. I'll let you know if it's any good!

Thank you so much for reading. Let me know if you have any holy grail hair products that I should try, especially if you're a blonde like myself. Talk soon xxx

  1. I love the Bumble and bumble shampoo. I haven't tried the conditioner yet though - sounds like I've been missing out. Stephen :o)
