Uniq One Hair Treatment Spray Product Review

Every time I blow dry my hair, I must use a heat protectant on my hair! If the sun is out then a few sprays on my hair is a MUST!! My hair use to dry out so much due to the excessive heat and I wash my hair everyday, even though it's meant to be bad for you, washing out your natural hair oils, drying the hair out, can attract nits etc.

I recently wrote a review for another heat protectant spray I have continuously bought and used over and over again, click here to read it .

I also have enjoyed using this one by Uniq One , it was recommended by my amazing hair dresser back in Hong Kong.

Uniq One is an innovative hair care brand which creates effective hair care treatments to nourish, hydrate and perfect hair, (as stated by Beauty Bay which is an online beauty store available world wide).


The bottle has lasted me for a good 6 months! I love how evenly the lotion sprays out, and the effects is pretty good and decent!

It was roughly $150hk , which is about £12uk - quite an expensive price especially if the brand is unknown to you but I trust my hair dresser completely as he has been cutting my hair for over 10 years now. Believe me, I have tried different hair styles, and I don't let anyone cut my hair!! 

Not only did the red colour bottle attracted me to want to try this, but also the fact that is is an all-in-one hair treatment. \


It claims to:

1. Repair for dry and damaged hair.
2. Shine and frizz control.
3. Heat protection.
4. Silkiness and smoothness.
5. Hair colour protection/with UVA and UVB filters.
6. Easier brushing and ironing.
7. Incredible detangling.
8. Long-lasting hairstyle.
9. Split ends prevention.
10. Adds body.

From my experience, I have experienced all 10 of those above from my very first use.
The scent of this spray is quite strong! Even after the hair is dried, it is long lasting on the hair! So if you are a person who don't like heavy scented products then you might not like this!
The results are very good and true, my hair is very smooth and manageable on the next day, and a lot of people have commented on the shininess of my hair.

If your hair is already damaged then you cannot save it by using products, it is only short term fix but long term fix you would have to cut it off! painful - I know but if you want healthy hair then cut off the damaged hair and then look after the hair even more hence why you should consider purchasing good products that really works!

I don't have coloured hair as I haven't dyed it for quite a few years now, the last time I dyed it was about 3 years ago to black as my hair goes to a lighter brown from the sun, this spray protects my hair and I don't feel my scalp burning as hot in the sun (when we get any in the UK that is). However, I cannot say if this is good for coloured hair or not as my previous hair dye has grown out and chopped off!


Pro's:

• makes my hair look so silky and smooth
• it does feel like my hair is protected well as it doesn't dry up after using heat appliances on it
• there is quite a lot of product that is dispersed from the spray per pump
• the bottle has lasted me for 3-4 months which is good considering I use it every single day
• the formula is actually creamy but it squirts out from the pump as liquid
• can be used on dry or wet hair and is very effective with the heat appliances

 

Con's:

• scent may be too strong for those who don't like heavy scents, and it lingers on the hair even the next day
• can make the hair feel sticky when you spray too much
• not easy to get hold of in stores, I have never seen this product in stores in the UK but only online
• not a brand many people have heard of therefore they won't want to try

When I want to volumise my hair later on in the day, I spray this on my dry hair then use a hair dryer and it still makes my hair feel fresh, smooth, volumised and smells great! Not a lot of spray's can do this and this works so well with my GHD's or my curlers! IT makes my hair remain smooth, shiny and slick after direct hot heat has been applied, it really does protect my hair well and I have grown to love this product it even more!
I also love the fact that the lotion does not tip out, but it comes out as liquid form from the spray, how amazing is that?!

I use mine on my damp hair after I wash it, I spray a fairly equal amount all over my hair concentrating on the roots and tip to protect the split ends and hair fall out as I do suffer from that. Luckily my hair is hardly in tangles but I find that it makes my hair feel smoother.I would half air dry or air dry the hair for as long as possible, then I use my hair dryer set to medium heat. As you can imagine with long hair, it can damage the hair but this spray helps to keep the hair looking slick, smooth and more manageable. 

I personally don't like all-in-one products but I am really glad my hair dresser recommended this to me and it's been incredible to use! I would definatly re-purchase it again!
I would highly recommend this for people who want to try a product that really works! No point in wasting more money on products that don't work right?

Hope you enjoy using it as much as I did!

Umberto Giannini Incredible Body Hair Spray Product Review

I have tried lots of different types of hair spray ever since I decided to care for my hair which was about the age of 17. I never use to do anything with my hair until I one day decided to have my hair out at school and live like a girl. I use to tie it up in a pony tail all the time, no fancy plaits or ribbons or flowers, I was quite a tom-boy at school.

I use to have really thick hair, so thick that my hair bobbles would snap often and it was difficult to manage. Now, it is thin, and very flat. I actually call it boring but in reality, it is very manageable.
My hair use to be long and then I went through alsorts of colour and cuttings, usually a fringe/bangs every year and let it grow out, then a totally new style once a year. Now it is all natural, no hair dye, no fringe/bangs, no layers. I decided to go au naturel and sort out my skin whilst I am at it!

I hate blow drying my hair, it takes too much of my time just adding heat to dry up the hair strands, damaging the hair and then split ends grow quick, I have to protect it by using heat protecting hair spray.

I blow dry my hair if I need to get to bed as soon as possible which is atleast 5 nights out of 7 per week. I usually get home from work and shower, then need to be up in work in less than 7 hours time so you can imagine, I don't have much time to waste. I am on-the-go all the time, running from one place to another.

I am a full time nurse, I work day and night shifts, sometimes even a mixture in the week. I also do part time modelling so I am here there and everywhere, and I also have a business in Nu Skin so I do run up and down the country juggling all my jobs. I always make sure my hair is maintained well and is washed every single night.

I always use a heat protecting spray to protect the hair from heat damage, but I am a little picky on what I use. I have tried alsorts of brands and this one by Umberto Giannini has been my ultimate favourite so far. I have purchased about 5 bottles of these in the last few years and always prefer this one. Let me tell you why....

Pro's:

• it doesn't dry my hair out whereas some I have tried makes the ends dry so quick
• the scent makes my hair smell clean
• this volumises my flat hair
•  professional product from an award winning hairdresser
• You can get a travel sized bottle from big stores of Boots to try
• affordable price
• doesn't leave my hair feeling sticky, rough or greasy
• makes the hair look smooth and healthy

Con's:

• only available in the UK
• only available in big stores of Boots or Umberto salons
• this particular bottle is discontinued in some stores but there is a similar product available

 This was priced about £5.49 which is very affordable, especially when it does so much for my hair! One bottle would last me about a month and half atleast which is decent!

I discovered this product when I had my hair cut 3 years ago at the Umberto salon and I loved how it made my hair feel volumised. I find it difficult to find a spray which would hold my hair well and keep it volumised but this lasts for half a day and is the best so far.

I would spray it on my damp hair before I blow dry it, and also in the morning if I know the sun will hit my hair then I would give it another spritz as I don't know how long the heat protectant would last for after it has been touched by the hair dryer the night before.

The product comes out from a pump which is situated at the top of the bottle. The product sprays evenly and I use about 10 spritz all over my hair as my hair is so long.

It doesn't make the hair sticky like some I have tried, therefore I am not afraid to spray on more.
The scent can be quite strong at first but it isn't strong on the hair the next day, which is why I like it even more. I hate it when products have a heavy scent, it puts me off using the product and the range!

Unfortunately this bottle is discontinued, but the newest one which does the same trick is a purple coloured one. There will be another product review on that soon! I promise!

This hair is suitable for fine to medium hair, long or short and great for if you want a lift in your hair! Great for if you are creating a volumised hair-do!
