MY HAIR - Ombré Effect
So I talked about wanting to go blonde for the summer and here it is!
Well kind of..
I wanted an ombré effect because well.. I like how it looks. All over head color without it being my whole head.
My first attempt was with L'oreal Excellence Extreme Blonde in B1. It didn't do much. It brought it to a brown color on my ends.
The second attempt which is pictured here was done with Clairol Textures & Tones in Honey Blonde.
I colored it a week after trying the first time.
It's not the blonde I want and I might do a third attempt at some point.
For now I'm giving my hair a break.
Watch my second attempt below and do subscribe to my channel if you're not already :)

Root2Tip Review - Quench My Thirst
Hola :)
I was gifted with products courtesy of Root2Tip - a UK based natural hair care company.
(Thanks Sal! xx)
I've been using these three products for about a month or so now.
In today's post, I will be sharing my thoughts on the Hair Moisturiser Creme (Quench My Thirst)
For some reason, I can't find the Root2Tip website but they sell the products on Paks
retails for £7.49 on Paks
It contains organic shea, red palm fruit oil and coconut milk.
It's marketed as a moisturizer so I used it as a leave in conditioner. How does that make sense?
Well in my world, if it's suppose to moisturize my hair, I can use it as a leave in.
It looks thick and creamy but applying it feels light. So strange to me. Almost as if I wasn't applying anything. Probably due to my hair being more on the wet side. This would probably work better on damp hair. I trudged though and sealed with almond oil.
The hold was medium as stated. Hair was amazingly soft. These pics are from the first time I used it.
I waited til I used it again to review it and I must say I love it.
My hair has been out and about in the wintery air and retained its moisture.
I've gone 2 weeks without redoing my hair because it hasn't been dry.
I'm curious to how it would hold up in South Florida's weather...
Anyways this is a great product and it's British! American brands tend to get the shine but over on this side of the pond has great products as well.
Overall
I would purchase this product.
The way my hair felt after a week was great! Just it and an oil.
Look out for the reviews on the other two products
