Air-dried hair that looks pretty, healthy, and happy. Is there any loftier summer time goal? In the warmer months, I can barely stand the thought of blowdrying and styling my hair. Of course, in the winter, I'd pay an undisclosed amount for an industrial strength blowdryer to meet me halfway outside my shower door... but that's not the point. You and I both want our locks to drip dry and look fabulous. Is that too much to ask? Well, not anymore.
When I started using Wild Child Hair Rehab Oil, I was shocked and pleased when I accidentally let my hair dry naturally one day. When I saw my husband later that day he told me how great my hair looked. Now look, in nearly 20 years of marriage my husband has never appreciated my natural curls, errr frizz, and honestly neither have I. But today was different.
What's the Difference?
My hair was properly nourished. Wild Child is supremely rich in protein, which is so important when it comes to the strength and health of your hair. The botanical blend gives your hair what it has been thirsting for, literally, it leaves your hair hydrated and fed. And I swear to you, my hair has been growing noticeably faster. Thanks to the incredibly effective ingredients like castor oil and argan oil. Honestly, so many good things...
- Detoxes your scalp (I am obsessed with using it as a scalp massage, I swear it helps my hair grow faster)
- Balances oil production (so I can go longer in between washes, (hallelujah!)
- Restores shine (you will notice a difference!)
- Heals dry scalp (I have always had an issue with this at the base of my scalp... but no more!)
- Increases elasticity (this is why my hair curls so much better!)
