My last post was about my spring hair color. So, here are the products I've been using this season to keep my mane healthy and manageable.


Philip B Lavender Hair & Body Shampoo (14,600 yen): aside from sakura, Spring is all about the Lavender. First, I'll address the positives: Philip B's Lavender Hair & Body Shampoo has a great scent that lingers for the entirely of the first day. It cleans thoroughly, and removes all excess oil and residue from the scalp. However, you have to use a lot of product because it doesn't lather well at all. Also, I need to follow up with a good conditioner because after rinsing, my hair is tangled and feels dry.

John Masters Organics Lavender & Avocado Intensive Conditioner (7,776 yen): a pleasing, delicate lavender scent, the  Lavender & Avocado Intensive Conditioner has a thin, lotion consistency. I apply a dollar-size amount to the mid-lengths of my hair to the ends. Great at detangling, I usually leave it on from anywhere between 5 to 10 minutes. after rinsing with cold water, my hair is tangle-free, soft, moisturized, and shiny without being weighed down. I really like this conditioner.


Philip B Drop Dead Straightening Baume (3,780 yen): a heat-activated, silicone-free, non-greasy, water-soluble formula protects my hair from thermal styling and helps cut down on my blow-drying time. I like to apply a mix this along with the Anti-Frizz Formula 57 to damp hair. Afterwards,my hair feeling and looking extremely soft, voluminous, sleek, shiny and frizz-free.

Philip B Anti-Frizz Formula 57 (5,292 yen): the lavender oil is this product gives it a delicious lavender scent. I like to mix four pumps into the Philip B Drop Dead Straightening Baume for extra shine and protect from heat styling. Also, I use it as a finishing polish to on the mid-lengths of my hair to the ends.

John Masters Organics Sea Mist Sea Salt Spray with Lavender (3,240 yen): Another delectable lavender fragrance (can you see a pattern here?!) , I like to use this salt spray on my roots to add volume and texture, as well as adsorb any excess oil between washes.

Although after rinsing the Philip B Lavender Hair & Body Shampoo out, my hair is left feeling dry and tangled, when paired with the John Masters Organics Lavender & Avocado Intensive Conditioner, and the Philip B Drop Dead Straightening Baume, and the Philip B Anti-Frizz Formula 57, my hair feels extremely soft, silky smooth, and with an incredible shine.
