My Take Time : Himalaya Protein Hair Cream Review

I say it a zillion times, I am a huge fan of hair serums.I am not blessed with silky smooth hairs :( So hair serums are my BFFs.But this take is about a hair cream "HIMALAYA PROTEIN HAIR CREAM".The reason I got gravitated towards this product is because I was in search of a hair cream which can tame my flyaway hairs.I didnt want to use lots of chemicals so I picked up himalaya which is a herbal brand.


What It Claims
Nourishes your hair with Natural Proteins derived from ingredients like Wheatgerm and Chickpea. Indian Gooseberry and Thistles promote hair growth. Use regularly before and after shampooing for well nourished, soft and shiny hair. It contains Chanaka (Chickpea), which is a rich and natural source of protein that helps in hair growth along with Godhuma (Wheatgerm), which is also a good source of protein and vitamin E. Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry), acts as an anti-oxidant and hair growth promoter while Bhringaraja (Thistles) strengthens hair root and prevents hair fall. Protein hair cream nourishes hair root and shaft.

How I use It 
    After styling my hair, I just take a pea size(much less than what is shown in the pic below) of the cream and rub it over my fingers and kind of run the fingers lightly on my hairs.By this the tiny flyaways are tamed and they dont fly all crazy.

My Verdict
After using it for over 5month, I can say......
  • It helps me manage my flyaway hairs pretty well.
  • It smooths out my hair when I do an updo or pony tail and makes it look neat and sleek.
  • I dont use it as a total hair cream coz I have my serums for that, but sometimes I use it in the roots before washing my hair and it really makes my hair silky and smooth.
  • Pleasant smell.
  • A small amount goes a long way.I use a tiniest amount and just run it over my hairs and my tiny flyaways are managed and tamed.
  • Economical and easily available.

I can't say whether I will re purchase it or not coz currently I like it and it does serve my purpose of taming my flyaway hairs.I don't use it as a serum or whole hair cream coz I find it quite heavy for that purpose.But ya its a good alternative for hair oils before hair wash.

Hope my post is helpful for you guys.Do share your views about this product and do suggest me your favourite hair cream.

My Take Time : Matrix Biolage Smoothing Serum Review

hey guys,
Unruly, messy, frizzy !!! these are the few terms that well describe the texture of my hairs :P
Yaa I am not blessed with silky smooth hairs :( So I constantly hunt for hair serums which can help me manage my crazy babies.An year ago, my hair stylist introduced me to this new hair care brand called MATRIX.This brand beholds an amazing range of products that serves different types of purpose.I was drawn towards the BIOLAGE catagory as its a mixture of science and nature. 
My hair stylist recommended the Smoothing Serum for me.






What It Claims
Biolage Smoothing serum smoothes dry, frizzy, and unruly hair. A fusion of taming polymers and avocado and grape seed oils gently envelopes hair to control frizz and seal in smoothness without weight. Hair stays shiny, nourished, and manageable all day.



My Verdict
After using it for over 1year, I can say......

  • It helps me manage my frizzy hairs.
  • It smooths out my hair after every use and gives a shine to it.
  • It is indeed a no knots no tangle product.It detangles my hair and so reduces hairfall while combing or styling.
  • It is decently priced for a serum.
  • Pleasant smell.
  • I use it on damp hair and it work great.But it makes hair bit oily when applied on dry hair.But thats ok for me cause I prefer using serums on wet hair.
It is definitely a CATCH IT for me.And I am not going to repurchase it cause I have already repurchased it and stocked it :D :D

Hope my post is helpful for you guys.
Thanks for reading :)
