Love is in my Hair with INOAR’s NEW and IMPROVED BOTOX TREATMENT!

I’m so chuffed about the INOAR Ghair Botox Treatment that my hair got this weekend, courtesy of Sorbet Drybar Dunkeld and Inoar SA; for more than one reason and I want to share my experience with you.

As this is also Women’s Month, I thought I would use this as an opportunity to remind you that it is important to take care of yourself and more specifically, your hair in this instance. It is amazing how hair can influence your mood and in some cases, even others’!

Ever heard of this saying, “Some people make hair contact before eye contact!” As cliché as that may sound, it’s true, some people DO notice your hair first. Let’s hope it’s for all good reasons.

Good hair speaks louder than words! Your hair leaves a lasting impression. People may sometimes forget your name, but describe you by means of referring to your hair as a descriptor;

e.g. “the lady with the very short hair”

e.g. “The lady with the outrageous coloured hair”

e.g. “The lady with the beautiful hair” etc.

Some food for thought in the following sayings;

Gorgeous hair is the best revenge! Especially if you want to Rebuild your Confidence After a Breakup

Your hair is 90% of your selfie!

Life is short, make each hair flip fabulous!

With such sayings, and of course many other reasons, there is a desire for us to feel and look fabulous and some say it’s all in the hair.

I don’t know about you, but when I am not having a good hair day, it influences my confidence. Seriously, it does. I wish it didn’t, but it does. It is therefore so important for me to ensure my hair is looking and feeling good.

Being a working mum, there are time constraints. I don’t have as much time as I used to, for myself, to invest in my hair or other beauty related regimes. This is one of the reasons I am so chuffed about my treatment this weekend! It’s going to save me some time in terms of less maintenance, as my hair is naturally wavy with more frizz than I am comfortable with.

Let me tell you more…as I am sure if you haven’t yet experienced Hair Botox, you’re eager to know the details. Yes…Hair Botox, there is such a thing indeed.

First Impressions

The Staff:

I arrived at Sorbet Drybar Dunkeld a few minutes before my appointment. I was courteously attended to by the ladies at reception, who directed me to Connie, the stylist who was going to attend to me. Connie welcomed me with a smile, a smile that signalled to me that she was passionate about her job and happy to be working there. The sincerity in her disposition made me feel welcome. I’m always a bit nervous whenever I visit a salon for the first time, not knowing what to expect or if I will feel at ease there.

The Franchise: Sorbet Drybar Dunkeld:

Colourful – the walls and the spirit! The salon was well stocked from what I could see; the Sorbet Colours deliberately displayed all over, each in its own space. I don’t know what it is, but I found the aesthetics visually appealing. The colours created a “dreamy”, “fantasy-like” feeling.

It was 10h00 and the salon was bustling on a Saturday morning. Perhaps it was the attention to detail in the extra touches; like the colourful sweets on the counter that matched the products, or the beautiful fresh flowers and the well-presented beverages that clearly delighted customers.

Whilst I was having my treatment, I watched and observed the other customers around me. They all left with a huge smile, thanking their stylist profoundly. I even asked one of the ladies if I could take a photo of her hair and post it on my blog, she agreed without any hesitance. Unfortunately, I didn’t think at the time to get her details, but here is the photo which doesn’t do justice to the way it looked in reality. She had a “Honeycombe” blow dry – which for the month of August is on special for only R150! How amazing is that! Almost every lady that I noticed, was having brush curls – I did hear that this salon has a reputation for the best brush curls in town – I could see why.

On my way out, I incidentally happened to meet the owner who happened to be there at the time. It was such a pleasure to meet with her! She is so down to earth and so genuinely passionate about customer service excellence! Which of course, cannot go unnoticed at Sorbet Drybar Dunkeld. I often judge a business without knowing or meeting the owner, by how the staff behave and of course the service I receive. This salon won’t leave you feeling like just another number. You will be made to feel valued and pampered. It’s been there for 5 years already and from what I have seen, will be there many more years to come. Although this is a franchise, there’s just something about this specific one that will make you want to return. If you don’t believe me, go and experience if for yourself.

The Treatment: INOAR Ghair Botox

After all, this is what you wanted to read about, right? Let me not keep you in suspense any longer then.

Firstly, Connie explained the product to me, she said:

• It would last approximately 4+ weeks
• It will not influence tint/colour in the hair – I don’t colour my hair so I didn’t have to worry about this
• However, if you do colour your hair, take note that this treatment may be done immediately AFTER colour/hi-lights/toner (Remember that the cuticles are already open so there is no need for a clarifying shampoo.   A normal shampoo (no conditioner) will be used after colour/hi-lights and then the B-Tox will be applied
• There will be no fumes / odour / eye-burning and there wasn’t any in my experience
• It works extremely well on chemically damaged hair
• It may be done on virgin hair

I’m not sure if Connie mentioned this to me, but I knew beforehand (as I usually do my own research first), is that it is not recommended for pregnant women. For the record, I am not pregnant, so I didn’t have to worry about that either.

The steps for the treatment was simple:

• First, my hair was shampooed
• Then it was towel dried
• Connie then applied the GHair B-Tox mask on my hair, which she then combed through
• She then wrapped my hair in cling wrap, which I kept on for 30-40 minutes
• My hair was then washed
• Finally, my hair was styled, with the result being:

BEAUTIFUL, SOFT, SMOOTH AND HEALTHY LOOKING (AND FEELING) HAIR.

Remember, when your hair is looking and feeling great, so will you too, both personally and professionally.

When your man grabs your waist from behind and buries his cheeks against your neck, you will embrace that feeling when you are feeling confident, with hair that smells and feels fantastic. He will want to run his fingers through such smooth hair…mmh…mummies, if you’ve been struggling to think about how to feel sexy after your pregnancy, here’s some inspiration for you, if hair is your thing…and his too!

For the careerwomen, the next time you walk into a meeting, the bounce and shine in your hair, will make you feel like you can conquer the world! Yes, we are women and we need such confidence boosters.

For the single women, it doesn’t matter what clothes you wear on that date; you’re never fully dressed without great hair.
