Beauty | High (Hair) Maintenance

I try to keep my "girl-stuff" contained to one space, and this tray pretty much holds everything I need to get ready.

It hurts my brain because although my make-up is in a cute bowl and cups, the whole thing is pretty cluttered.

The other day I thought I would have a clear out = FAIL. I actually really do need everything! Including my five hair products.



Here are the culprits..... And when I say five, I mean not even including my shampoo, conditioner and hair mask. This is stuff I put on AFTER all that jazz.

I like to think I'm fairly low maintenance (Dan laughs like a maniac....), when it comes to being a girl. Give me 45 minutes and I can get showered, dressed, hair-styled and make-up done but I can't bear to give up any of these products. What the....? Here's the down-low:



Product One - When my hair is towel dried I take a pea-sized amount of Aveda's Damage Remedy Daily Hair Repair and run it through the ends of my hair.

Product Two - I then flip my hair upside down and spritz the Phyto Volumizing Spray into my roots, then I blow-dry.

Product Three - I switch the curlers/straighteners on and spritz a heat defence product through the mid-lengths to ends. At the moment I'm using the Lee Stafford Argan Oil Miracle Heat Defence Spray.

Product Four - Once I've styled it I usually finish with a quick blast of light-weight hairspray just to smooth any fly-aways and hold my do.

Product Five - I usually wash and style my hair every-other day. The days I don't wash I like to pep my hair up with a dry shampoo. The John Frieda Volume Refresh one is my absolute favourite. I used to use Batiste but always felt a bit weird and scratchy afterwards, not anymore!

So there we have it. Does this seem excessive to you? How many products  do you use on a regular basis and how many have you got stashed away as a just-in-case?

Help a girl out here, am I really that high (hair) maintenance?!
