What Do You Think? Reader Reviews of Vidal Sassoon Salonist Hair Colour #PGMom

May 29, 2016 by Kathryn 2 Comments

About a month ago, I made the drastic decision to say goodbye to my natural brown hair colour and try a fun new reddish brown shade using new Vidal Sassoon Salonist hair colour. I loved the results and sharing my new colour with the world. But Vidal Sassoon wanted to know what you thought of its product too! Recently, twenty of my readers had the chance to review VS Salonist, and now they’re sharing their thoughts on the process and the results! Here are a few of the reviews; you can read even more on the pgeveryday.ca website!

This is probably the best hair colour that I have used since I started colouring my hair full time around 4 years ago. The process is quite messy and lengthy but I really love the results that I get from it. I have stubborn greys and they cover them without issues and they blend naturally in with the rest of my hair. My greys usually don’t hold colour well and fade quickly but a week later it is still holding up. My hair feels so nice when I am done and is much more manageable. I will continue using it in the future. ~newfiechic

Renew Your Hair for Spring with Vidal Sassoon Salonist Hair Colour-Giveaway

March 23, 2016 by Kathryn 116 Comments

Like most teenage girls, I used to love changing my hair with different at-home colour kits. I usually went red, sometimes added streaks of blonde and even considered going jet black. But then I let a few months pass between colourings shortly after turning twenty, and I remembered what a great natural hair colour I had. At that moment, I decided that I would stop colouring my hair and enjoy my own, natural tresses until my hair started going so grey that I had no choice but to dye it. At that point, I figured, I could go crazy with wild hair colours to my heart’s content.

I managed to fend off those days for quite awhile by yanking out the occasional grey hairs I found but now, at 35, I’m starting to think that I’m doing more damage to my hair by yanking out greys than I would be just dying it again! So I decided to take the plunge and colour my untouched hair for the first time in about 15 years…with a little help from Vidal Sassoon! The company’s new Salonist hair colour promised a salon-quality colouring experience due to a system that treats roots and lengths separately.

Choosing a colour was the biggest first step. I asked my fiance if I should pick a colour that was drastically different, slightly different or as close to my natural colour as possible. He thought that switching my colour up a bit with a slightly different change sounded fun, so I decided to go with a colour that I had a bit of past experience with and picked up two boxes of Vidal Sassoon Salonist Medium Reddish Brown.

Summer is definitely the season for wearing cool, flowing dresses while sporting cool, flowing hair and I have to admit, it’s one of my favourite things about July and August. There’s simply nothing better than feeling the warm breeze blowing while being outside in the sunshine.

But summer clothes can mean summer woes at times, whether it’s because occasionally the sun tends to leave my hair looking less than luxurious or because I have a tendency to sometimes sashay out the door in a strappy dress forgetting that I haven’t shaved my legs or underarms. Luckily, this year Proctor & Gamble is coming to the rescue with some products that will end summer hair problems once and for all!

My thick, straight hair is actually fairly well-behaved in all weather, but if you have curly or wavy hair and the humidity causes you grief each summer, Vidal Sassoon has two fabulous new products to help tame your tresses. When there’s just no avoiding humidity, embrace your natural wave with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Waves Enhancer Spray and Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Waves Crème Pomade. The 7-in-1 wave enhancer spray allows for maximum styling so you can achieve that tousled, beach hair look with ease! After a quick spray, just apply the crème pomade for genius curl control, leaving hair soft, touchable and beautifully defined for up to 24 hours! [Read more…]

When it comes to beauty, I am pretty darn good at creating great makeup looks, but I’m utterly hopeless with my hair. It’s straight and thick so I have trouble finding styles that last and since I’m usually rushing around with my boys anyways, my hair spends a lot of time in a ponytail. But I do want my hair to look healthy and luxurious even if I’m just wearing it down straight or pulling it into a quick bun, so having high-quality hair products that nourish my hair is important to me.

Vidal Sassoon has been helping women get the looks they love for fifty years and the new Vidal Sassoon Pro Series is especially designed to provide salon-quality styling at home. I recently got the chance to check out the new line and I looked forward to seeing what it was like. [Read more…]
