I’ve been a little bit on the Kevin Murphy band wagon since last year. If you have very dry and damaged hair, his line of products is definitely one of the best out there in terms of providing hydration and making your hair look and feel amazing. Plus, the products are paraben and sulphate-free which is always a plus.
Since Murphy came out with the new Angel.Masque this year, I decided to try the whole line of Angel products that are a part of this line. That includes a Wash (shampoo) and Rinse (conditioner). The Angel line of products are for fine, coloured hair, and that’s definitely me. Stylists are always surprised at my hair. If I come in and it’s done up, it looks like there’s such a tiny amount of hair, but once it’s out and washed, they realize how much hair I do have. It’s just so fine that it looks compact when it’s together.
So I tried the Angel.Wash and the Angel.Rinse, and used the Angel.Masque once a week and I have to say that my hair has never been softer right out of the shower. This line of products is so hydrating yet so light that it doesn’t weigh fine hair down. Plus, it’s colour-safe and so it won’t fade your hair either.
Although the shampoos are sulphate-free, the Kevin Murphy shampoos always have tons of rich lather, and clean well. My stylist told me that the Rinses are actually supposed to work as regular conditioners and as leave-ins. Instead of washing 100% of the conditioner out of your hair, you just wash out about 70% so that there’s still some in your hair to provide some extra hydration and protection. If you find that it’s weighting your hair down too much, you just wash out a little bit more next time. It’s a genius strategy that totally works for my hair and means that I have to use less styling product later on.
If you too have fine, coloured hair, give the Kevin Murphy Angel line a try and if you’re looking for a great high-end haircare line, try this one. Kevin Murphy is only sold at salons (about $36 for the shampoo and conditioner each, and $39 for the masque).
