I was asked by a friend if I had any recommendations for a low priced, great shampoo. I don't know if the two are synonymous. In fact I never thought my hair felt terrific from a shampoo unless some diva named Jean-Luc was fawning all over it at an overpriced Manhattan salon. Once that $250 hair cut and style was on my credit card I somehow always convinced myself my hair would never feel that way if I shampooed and styled it at home. And then......drum roll please....
I came upon NOUNOU. Woohoo for the NOUNOU! This nourishing illuminating shampoo and conditioner is from the the Davines line created by a family in Italy (www.davines.com) who believe in sustainability. And I'm not just talking a hairstyle that lasts all day. Nope. They are big on the environment and corporate responsibility. So much of their products are natural and sweetie pie...au natural makes a big difference when it comes to how you should treat your hair!
Let me explain one thing first - my hair is my crowning glory. I am THE hair person in my group of friends. If you asked them what I'm most obsessed over? It would be my hair. All my defining moments are based around good hair days. I don't give a shiz how superficial that seems, a bouncy set of locks on Inauguration Day probably made Michelle happy too . My first experience with the shampoo had me flabbergasted my hair not only could feel so light and clean but could actually REFLECT LIGHT. It was shiny and bouncy and light, I had no idea my hair had it in it! I was walking around with this bouncy light inducing hair. It was a significant moment to know I had spent decades trying to find the right hairstyle for me and I learned all I needed was a great shampoo and conditioner.
NOUNOU Nourishing Illuminating Shampoo with Chestnut Milk for Colour treated hair travels in high places and is in all the nice salons and you know what that means kids - a hit to your wallet. I've spent upwards of $25 for one bottle - but no fear! I have found it online for $10 cheaper at trustworthy sites like beauty.com. I try with great willpower to only use it for auditions or film days to conserve but it's hard going back to another shampoo after using this one, there is just no comparison. The quality of the product permits me to wash my hair less frequently, so you do the math!
NOUNOU Nourishing Illuminating Cream with Tomato Extract is just as amazing. If you have long hair this conditioner is a fantastic detangler too. It lasts forever as you don't need much to produce the shine and brilliance it creates. Sweet Almond Butter and Vitamin F are key ingredients and assist in restructuring the hair shaft and replenishing nourishment. The Hydrocreatine internally strengthens the hair and increases elasticity (what did I say long haired ladies!). The Tomato Extract apparently protects hair from free radicals as it works synergistically with Rhizobian Gum to maintain hair color's vibrancy by selectively releasing moisturizers according to your hair's needs. It comes in a tub that seems to last forever. NOTE: It takes a few try's to figure out how much is too much and you really want to rinse well but the results of patiently rinsing ARE WORTH IT! I keep it on overnight with saran wrap over it to give my hair a real conditioning.
Goldilocks WATCH OUT! The bear is out of the cabin! (Um, my way of saying the cat is out of the bag, funny huh?)
