My John Frieda journey.

Arrival of products (2 October 2017)
I received my gorgeous looking shampoo, conditioner and deep conditioner today. First off this packaging is gorgeous , the black and red containers are eye catching and the products smells great! My hair has been chemically processed and heat damaged- how hurtful. The texture of the product is so smooth.

Week one ( 9 October)
After a week of use this product is heaven on earth (no exaggerating) the product is light weight and does not weigh down your crown and glory. The John Frieda full repair and strengthen shampoo, conditioner an well as deep conditioner contains Inca Inchi oil- The only hair care product to contain this oil. As a 'natural' it's great to have a quality sulfate shampoo and conditioner to remove all that build up, John Frieda is the one!

My wash routine:
*First off I massage some natural oils into my scalp.
*Wet hair underneath the shower (Wherever you prefer)
*Once wet, use the John Frieda shampoo (wash twice- preference)
*Once I wash the shampoo out completely I then add the John Frieda deep conditioner (Masque) to my hair- comb through starting from your ends and work my way up to the scalp. Leave in your hair for 2-5 min.
*Wash out the deep conditioner then apply the John Frieda conditioner- comb through once again- then I wash out the conditioner from hair .
*Styling soley depends one preference.

Normally I wear my hair in it's natural state. My hair feels so soft and smells lovely. I have no complaints.

Week two (16 October)
I genuinely love the deep conditioner! my hair is so sleek . I heat styled my hair and my curls were locked in for about 3-4 days without hair spray- I was amazed with the natural shine and bounce my hair had.

Week three (23 October)
Video review to be posted...

Strengthened & Restored hair in just one week? - The John Frieda Full Repair range reviewed.

To be completely honest , when I first opened my package with my John Frieda products , I was skeptical..
Full Repair it read on the black & red bottles. I was eager to see if this was in fact true. You rarely find products that tend to do EXACTLY what the description says it's supposed to do, but in this case, Mr. John Frieda, whomever he may be , told the truth!

Not only does my hair feel stronger, smoother , and smell great , it also has more volume and more life than before.
I use the shampoo & conditioner in the shower , and keep the deep conditioner in my hair over night and rinse in the morning. This routine gives me the best results.

I have colored treated hair , so it's important for me to take extra caution when choosing the right products that will benefit my hair the absolute most. I am going to keep using the Full Repair range for a couple more weeks before giving my final thoughts on the product.
But after the huge difference it has already made to my hair , things are looking up, and more bouncy. :) ( I just made my first hair joke) xoxo

We all know what a long and damaging process dying your hair can be. Especially if you have naturally dark hair, and my hair has been a victim of it who we shall not name... (its bleach) one too many times.

Very few people know that my hair is still in recovery from constantly bleaching it a few years ago. It got so bad that I decided to shave my hair for a fresh start. Otherwise I've been hiding the damaged ends and dryness buy constantly using black Henna on my hair, which is actually not good for your hair in the long run. But I'm tired of hiding the damage with temporary solutions, so I am using the John Frieda Full Repair kit.

The kit comes with A full repair shampoo, A full repair conditioner & A full repair hair mask.

The slick red design and perfume like scent first caught my attention & I was very eager to wash my hair.
When applying the shampoo and conditioner for the first time, the perfume like scent filled the air. The texture is silky smooth and spread through my hair with ease. Using the Full Repair hair mask was my favorite part. For me, using hair masks is such a rare treat. It's like a spa day for my hair. I do wish that the bottles were bigger as I have a jungle of hair and I apply a lot of product at once for full coverage.

But I am very excited to continue using the product & I cannot wait to see the end results.

So! Week 1 after using the Full Repair Products! I normally straighten my hair after I wash it (because my hair lasts longer) which results in my hair reeking of burnt fur! But, my hair still has that perfume like scent even after I straightened it which has been the best part of this experience for me so far! My hair looks and feels so lush.

Week two of using the John Frieda Full Repair kit:
Because I have incredibly thick hair I normally only need to wash my hair every 5/6 days, however after using the John Frieda Full Repair kit for the second time my hair has lasted up to 8 days! That's 8 days of visibly lush & poofy hair. My hair feels thick & luxurious. The Full Repair hair mask is my new best friend! The container says to leave on for 2-5 minutes but I leave the mask in for about 20 minutes if not longer if I can! (Shhh... I'm a rule breaker) Can I also just point out that someone at work commented on how lovely my hair smelt a week after I washed my hair! How incredible is that!? Normally the scent of the products disappear after you style your hair. So far I am more than pleased with the results & I am looking forward to sharing my end result & final video review with you guys!

A very big thanks to @beautybulletin & @JohnFriedaSA for allowing me to test & review this product.

2nd week update

The range has added so much volume to my hair which looks great especially when I wear my hair in my fro, big hair don't care.

The full repair range has made it less of a mission to comb my hair after washing it. It detangles easily and there's fewer breakage which I totally love because my hair is weak and breaks easily.

I've noticed after my last wash that my ends changed colour. Now my hair used to be blonde but I dyed it black 3 months ago ( biggest regret) and now I'm trying to understand what's happening, I'll keep y'all updated.

So far ( besides the colour changing) I've been enjoying the range on my hair.

1st WEEK IMPRESSIONS

I usually wash my hair once a week because I'm pretty lazy and washing my hair takes forever guys but I've made a pledge with myself to wash my hair at least twice a week for the purpose of this review.

Guys my hair looks so healthy I can't even deal! My hair usually looks all dry especially my ends (split end problems) when I wear my hair in a fro, so I decided to wear it in a fro today to see if there's any improvement and there is guys!!! I've only had two washes so far and my hair feels and looks healthier than ever before.

My current favourite would be the deep conditioner thus far.

Tip: After using the shampoo and conditioner, apply the deep conditioner and go about your business. It leaves your hair soft, smelling great and it's perfect for a wash and go look.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

I've been a natural head for over two years and its been a long ass journey, and over time my hair got damaged. I used to straighten my hair often so that caused most of the damage and the fact that I'm a lazy ass who can't stick to hair routines contributed a little lol.

The John Frieda Full Repair range has 3 products:

1. John Frieda 250ml full repair strengthen & restore shampoo
2. John Frieda 250 ml full repair strengthen & restore conditioner
3. John Frieda full repair strengthen & restore deep conditioning masque

Usually when washing my hair the conditioner would be the holly Grail between the two, mainly because it leaves my hair soft, easy to detangle and smells Devine. Now all of that switched up with the John Frieda full repair range, while I was applying the shampoo onto my hair I immediately felt the difference. With some of the previous shampoos I've used, I've noticed how it tends to leave my hair super dry and vulnerable to breakage. With the John Freida full repair shampoo my hair was soft and felt extremely moisturized (it felt like I legit used conditioner instead of shampoo)
I love how thick the conditioner is,it saves product which indicates that a little goes a long way. All of the products have the same tropical smell which I love.
The John Frieda full repair deep conditioner is so thick which makes it super easy to apply and it has my hair smelling AMAZING!!

I love the packaging of the products, however I do wish the containers were 500 ml instead of 250 ml. I guess I'm just greedy lol.

I'm pretty sure everyone knows about the colour hair trend unfortunately I was a victim to the trend , that is right VICTIM! I bought my own dye kit and tried to get my hair to ash blond and after a failed attempt went to the hairdresser to save it and decided to go blue , from there on it was down hill . My hair was so damaged from all the chemicals . Not mention my smart ass relaxed it as well . My hair began to fall out and I had to resort to chopping it . With the help of @beauty_bulletin and @johnfriedasouthafrica I will be able to restore my hair. I'm in love with the packaging and design which looks every classy and smell of the product is absolutely amazing and can't wait to start using it #JohnFriedaSA #meandfullrepair #hairstruggles

Week 1
The excitement is real I can finally get my hair into a messy bun after cutting it . One week of using John Frieda Full Repair I'm so happy with the results my hair feels so much better , it is extremely soft and has more volume and smell of perfume and flowers . I love having hair that smells so good !!

Week 2
My hair is so soft and light and full of volume , it looks health and strong . The smell of the products lasted about 2 days in my hair , which is excellent considering the fact I use my own products whos smells usually over powers most shampoos and conditioners .

Week 3
So it's the end of my review trail but def not the end of journey with John Frieda . I am incrediably happy with the results in such little time my hair is healthier stronger , the product is a little pricy but I always take into consideration you get what you pay for . I would definitely repurchase the product . I found my new hair savior . If your hair is broken damaged and you have tried everything and nothing has worked this is def the product for you
