Like I said, short term results are good. I like that my hair is shiny when using it, I like that it’s easy to style and I like the my hair is very soft. Overall it feels very good after putting it in so I really enjoyed the short term results.Will I keep using it now the trial is over? Yes I will continue to use it but probably not as religiously. I think it’s a nice treatment to use after washing but I most likely won’t continue using it every single day before styling as I really don’t think my hair requires it that often. More likely I will use when I think my hair needs a boost or keep in my handbag for an emergency shine boost.

Using the Dove Nutri-Oil system has definitely given me a different perspective on oil hair products, I have been happy with the results and it’s reasonably priced so there’s no reason I wouldn’t continue along with it.

Easy styling, with my adorable friend Julia at Fashion Park:

Lastly, here’s a shot from the LMFF show I did last week so you can see the current state of my hair and judge for yourself!

And a more recent one from last weekend while I was trying on glasses at an accessory store 😀

So did any of you guys try out the Nutri-Oil range yet?? I’d love to see if you had different results to me!

This is the bottle of oil, it’s a reasonable size considering you are only supposed to use a couple of pumps at a time. It looks yellow in the bottle but once it’s out it’s completely clear.

You can’t even see it on my hand.

So the bottle says use 3-5 pumps depending on your hair length, I used 4 because my hair is still really long even after I cut some off a little while ago. Basically you distribute it evenly through your hair but avoiding the roots then brush through and style however you want. You’re supposed to use it every day in combination with the shampoo/conditioner for the best results. You can use on wet or dry hair and I found it suited my hair best when it was wet.

I found when using it that 2-3 pumps was more than enough for my hair otherwise while it was super shiny it became a bit too wet. Definitely do avoid the roots too, anywhere near my roots gave it a bit of an unwashed result. Lesson learned: less is definitely more! It took a couple of applications before I found the perfect balance to use for my hair type but once I did it was a really nice product to use.

On the bottom 2/3rds of my hair it gave a really shiny finish without weighing it down at all. Like I mentioned in the last post, I was a bit worried it would be oily and heavy but I was pleasantly surprised because it wasn’t at all. The end result felt smooth and had a very healthy looking finish to it.

Done! I’ve been using it for around 2 weeks every day now and  while I haven’t seen any long term improvement to the texture or condition of my hair it feels nice going in and works for me as a short term product. As my hair was in quite good shape to begin with so I wasn’t really expecting to be able to see the kind of results you would expect in a before/after infomercial and I’m happy with what it’s done so far. I think as far as hair treatments go this is a good cost effective solution as at $9.99 it’s quite a bit cheaper than a lot of things I’ve used.

And here’s the comparison, before on the left and after on the right. The easiest to spot difference is how much fluffier the right is, I think that’s mostly due to the extra brushing. The right definitely seemed shiner to me in real life but it’s quite hard to capture that on camera.
