Foamless Cleansing Conditioner - WEN

So over the past few weeks I have swapped my recent obsession for nails and nail colour for haircare. And this new hair care range WEN is a real mind bender! You may have read my previous post on WEN Volumizing Treatment Spray. WEN has been developed by top US stylist Chaz Dean, and is a unique hair care system consisting of a single step cleansing conditioner that cleanses and conditioners your hair simultaneously; sound weird? Let me explain more…

The cleansers are made from a blend of herbs, botanicals and provitamin B.  Uniquely, WEN doesn’t lather but creates a smooth foam when mixed with water. Still sounds weird? Here’s a bit more…

Chaz Dean created WEN following his belief that some shampoos can be harmful to hair. The concept of not using regular shampoo is something Dean began to implement in 1993 and now, no longer uses ordinary shampoo on himself, or his clients.

WEN Haircare

WEN has been designed to gently cleanse and moisturise your hair, leaving it with more sheen, lustre, moisture and better colour retention.  OK, so now it’s time for me to try it. The concept to me is still rather odd. I have a short bob, and my hair is fine and blonde so will look dirty or greasy if I simply step outside for 5 minutes, so I was very dubious to even try this product. I decided to give it a whirl on a weekend where I didn’t have plans to go out or do anything glam in case my hair ends up looking like a ropey mop end.

BUT I wasn’t being fair; this system was quite a pleasure. It saved me time, as I didn’t have to go through a ‘wash, rinse and repeat’ process followed by conditioner. The range smells very invigorating and quite herbal, but not in a stuffy way, more uplifting. So in all I was happy with the end result, but as some one who pretty much feels manky and dirty if I don’t wash my hair at least once in 24 hours, I think WEN would be best suit to those who can go a few days without washing their hair. In fact, this system would be ideal for K, whose hair seems to look better the longer she doesn’t wash it for! (I’m utterly jealous of that fact!).

Volume WEN You Need It

As you may have read before, big hair is my thing and what I strive for daily. So when I was given the chance to try WEN Volumizing Treatment Spray, I jumped at it. Created by celebrity stylist Chaz Dean, this new product is designed to add volume and extra body to any style. It has a gorgeous sweet almond mint scent. I have been using it everyday for over a month now simply sprtiz into wet hair comb through and style, easy as that. It makes your hair feel thicker and look shiny. Volume lasts all day and for extra height I have used a large round brush to blow dry and lift the hair from the root.

I love it and it leaves my hair smelling so wonderful after. ALSO, it is great at keeping hair looking fabulous all day even after the wind has blown my hair about on my way to work!

Better still…The WEN range contains no SLS and is packed with herbs including green tea, botanicals and provitamin B.
