Review: Aromas Curl Shampoo & Conditioner

AROMAS is a vegan-friendly, sulphate and paraben-free hair care range formulated with gorgeous blends of essential oils. AROMAS LUXE BOTANICALS is a collection brought to us by NAK.

NAK is an all Australian haircare company passionate about creating innovative and versatile haircare products for the professional hairdressing industry, salons, stylists and consumers.

What they say about AROMAS:

AROMAS LUXE BOTANICALS bestows harmony and wellbeing to all hair types. A thoughtfully considered, environmentally conscious, vegan-friendly haircare range. Where nature and science combine perfectly to naturally protect hair and skin. Sulphate free and paraben free formulas provide beautiful cleansing care and styling rituals for superior conditioning. With 4 different ranges everyone will be able to find their perfect hair care solution. Enriched with ancient Moroccan Argan Oil, Almond Milk proteins and exquisite essential oil blends of Lavender, Patchouli and Geranium.

AROMAS is available in four ranges, namely Blonde, Curl, Smooth and Colour. We got to try out the Curl Shampoo and Conditioner. And I am impressed to say the least. I did try the shampoo and conditioner, but as I have to use a silver/purple shampoo to preserve my blue grey hair, my little girl’s locks gets treated to all of the AROMAS magic.

And when I say magic, I mean it. Her curls have never looked so perfect.

The shampoo is extremely gentle, yet it cleanses beautifully. Once rinsed, her hair is left feeling so soft that I can almost skip the conditioner. But if you have curly hair, you know that’s not a good idea.

The conditioner, even though very light, is extremely nourishing. Getting knots out of her hair is a breeze.

My girls curls are left perfectly shaped, soft, and smooth. Absolutely gorgeous!

I highly recommend you give AROMAS a try. I am so happy with the Curls range.

If you hurry, you can get a Curls bundle on sale at www.retailbox.co.za for only R499! Normal price R640.

Another NAK product that I need to mention, is their Colour Masques. I have only tried it once in salon, but I am obsessed. These masques are treatments that deposit a bit of colour. How awesome is that?! Silver Pearl would be perfect to keep my hair looking great between salon visits. I’ll post a full review as soon as I can get my hands on a bottle ;)

The Twisted Punk Braid from Herve Leger New York Fashion Week AW/16 was a huge hit and I can see why.

Isn’t it gorgeous?!

You can get this runway look at home by following the steps below. Stick around as your punk braid selfie can win you a TRESemmé hamper!

Step 1:

Start with the TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Healthy Volume Shampoo and Conditioner as a base for perfect effortless waves.

Step 2:

Apply a small amount of TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Volume and Lift Mousse to the roots and roughly dry the hair to enhance its natural texture.

Step 3:

Create an uneven deep side part and begin plaiting and twisting from the forehead to the nape of the neck.

Step 4:

Secure the twisted plait with a small elastic band and bobby pins, allowing small strands to fall out.

Step 5:

Run a straightener over the top of the hair at the part-line and shake hair over the shoulders to cover up the end of the braid.

Step 5:

Finish by spraying TRESemmé Firm Hold Hairspray for touchable hold.
