Roots & Rituals (R&R) Hair Product Review

Hey everyone,

A few weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to attend the Bloggers London Fashion Week event that was held in East London, and during my visit I came across many interesting brands. One of my favourites was the brand 'Roots & Rituals' who specialise in haircare products. What I loved most about this brand was the innovative package of their products and the natural ingredients like essential oils in their hair treatments.

My hair is quite oily at the scalp and dry towards the mid-lengths and ends and this is largely due to the fact that it's been damaged by hair colouring. Therefore I am always looking for products that are going to help get my hair back to the way it was.

I was lucky enough to get a sample of the hair conditioner, the deep conditioning hair oil and the heated towel to test out and review. The heated towel will not be reviewed in this post as I have not tried it out just just. So lets get straight into it shall we?

Deep Conditioning Hair Oil

This hair oil contains a lot of great beneficial oils in it like avocado oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, olive oil, argan oil and almond oil all into one nifty little product. What I love about this is you get all the benefits of different oils - that are great for different reasons - all in one hair oil treatment. You are advised to apply a small amount into the scalp in circular motions and spread evenly throughout hair. It says to leave it on for 30-40 minutes, however, I left it on for an hour as my hair has been suffering a lot since I had it highlighted. The product itself is very runny as you would expect it to be for a hail oil, it has a lovely scent and smells like essential oils; like a spa treatment, which helps you feel relaxed.

Results

The hair oil lived up to my expectations. It made my hair very soft, smooth and silky. I found it was easier to comb through my hair and my hair felt more nourished and hydrated.

Pros:

Great mix of essential oils
Nourishing weekly treatment
Relaxing scent
Doesn't leave your hair greasy after washing it out
Free from artificial fragrance, silicones and parabens

Cons

Comes in a 100ml bottle, which I am probably going to use up quickly

Hair Conditioner

Like the conditioning hair oil, the conditioner is packed full of beneficial ingredients that are really going to penetrate the hair shaft and make your hair more healthy. I applied the conditioner after shampoo and left it on for about 5 minutes. This conditioner was really intense and I could see a difference almost straight away. My hair felt really soft and nourished. R&R have actually just reformulated the conditioner into a hair mask due to popular demand, which I personally think is a great idea since its so intense.

Pros:

Great mix of essential oils
Moisturising effect
Leaves hair soft and supple
Free from artificial fragrance, silicones and parabens

Cons:

The strong essential oil smell can linger after washing it out (which isn't that much of a big deal for me)


I still have yet to test out the heated towel but I am sure that it will make the hair oil even better than it already is. I will keep you guys updated.
