Countless beauty magazines, blogs, and articles related to all things hair, will often offer the same advice: "Don't wash your hair every day!" In theory, we believed this advice to be true. In practice however, we eschewed the suggestion, citing our fine hair and its tendency to look greasy and oily within 24 hours of an ignored shampoo.
We kept shampooing. Daily.
At least right up until we discovered Living Proof's Prime Style Extender Cream, that is. Granted, the product sounded to good to be true when we read about it in Sephora. A cream that will repel dirt and oil? With promises to keep hair cleaner for longer, thus extended the life of a hair style? We were doubtful, but willing to give it a shot for $12 and the 2 ounce sample.
We have absolutely no idea about any of the scientific formulas behind it or how it works exactly, but that's no matter. Because amazingly, shockingly, it does work. While we still get our hair wet each and every day before styling the - breaking news!- phenomenon of skipping a day (or maybe, if we're really crazy, two!) in between hair washings now actually applies to us as well.
Only a smidge of this cream is needed; we've managed to make the 2 ounce trial size last for months, and we apply it to our roots on the day when we have actually shampooed our hair. Amazingly enough our hair does feel cleaner and less oily the following day..and thanks to the fact that the product is sulfate and silicone free, we don't even feel guilty for using this wonder, how-do-they-do-it, product every other day.
A life changer, indeed.
