Muggles Need Not Apply

As the previous post mentioned, Davines is a hair care line for wizards! 

Yes, it would indeed take a well-versed mane maestro to fully utilize the No. 3 Universal Mattering Mousse and OI Oil Absolute Beautifying Potion. I don't know if it was just me and my lack of skills, but these products just didn't do anything for me. 

The Oi Oil's best aspect is that it smells divine- Very aromatic and relaxing. When I used it on my fine, semi-wavy hair it left it a bit limp. So probably a product to use for those hair-straightening, shiny glossy days. 

The No. 3 Universal Mattering Mousse (which I always want to type as "mouse". A mattering mouse! Would that be like Muffy the Mouse from Today's Special?!) also left my locks a bit lackluster... And crunchy too, even though I made sure to work the foam adequately through my hair. It also smelled nice, but was more candy-sweet than the hair oil.

In my opinion these hair products are overall nice smelling, but better left to wizards and their hair care shelves.

You smell so nice, but you made my hair so sad.

Smells like candy, works like meh!

I wonder if you can find this on Diagon Alley.

Finally, hair care for Wizards!

I took a little look-see at Davines' website and found that they describe their philosophy as follows: "

Our ideal of beauty finds its inspiration in the concept of equilibrium between substance and shape as well as in the Italian Renaissance tradition. Our style is a delicate convergence of unique characteristics and it’s inspired by simplicity, harmony and good taste.

The beauty that we believe in is based on respect and appreciation for individuality. So we celebrate and express the grace and elegance that makes each of us who we are. This is why we consider ourselves as a tool for our customers to express their own uniqueness.

By creating “beauty” we want to encourage people to take care of themselves, of the environment in which they live and work, and of the things they love.

Our multicultural curiosity motivates us to explore the many truths that make our world. We strive to be in tune with the mood of the moment while still remaining fresh over time."

Sounds devine no? Eh....that might be a stretch. Here is how my experience went down...

VOLU SHAMPOO & VOLU CONDITIONER, VOLUME ENHANCING SOFTENING SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER: Pros list: great scent, good lather, leaves hair feeling clean. Cons list: not very concentrated, did not see much volume, cheap packaging, conditioner lacked softness

MOMO FLUID, MOISTURIZING ANTI FRIZZ PROTECTIVE FLUID: Pros: a little goes a long way, controlled frizz Cons: a little heavy-use with caution

No 14 SEA SALT PRIMER FOR WIZARDS: Pros: Awesome name, cute packaging, good scent, effective on wet or dry locks Cons: none!
