As a blogger, I tend to have my staple haircare and skincare favourites, but there’s always a few times a year when a product or two shows up that causes me to stray away from my usuals. Sometimes it’s a good thing, and sometimes it’s (very) bad thing. But I’m always so, so glad when it’s a good thing like these haircare products by Wella!
Wella is a totally new to me brand – while I had heard of them , I had zero experience with the brand. When I posted about them on Instagram stories, I had a viewer/reader tell me their mom used the Wella brand back in the 60s – I had no idea they’d been around that long!
While Wella has a whole bunch of different product ranges, the ones I’ve become familiar with are in the Enrich line for fine to normal hair (they also have one for coarse hair as well). The Enrich range is intended to volumize your hair, which for me, at this point in time, basically means not to weight it down. My hair is exceptionally long at this point and almost nothing will volumize it outside of backcombing, so when I was trying these out I just wanted it to feel like my hair was bouncy – and it definitely was. I didn’t feel like my hair had any extra weight to it and it was definitely not greasy either (one of the ways I know a shampoo or conditioner combo is bad for me is if my hair feels as if it hadn’t been washed as soon as I get out of the shower).
While I really liked the shampoo and conditioner, the product that really delighted me was the Enrich Moisturizing Treatment. It’s essentially a hair mask, but one that only requires you to leave on your head for five minutes. I always get annoyed when a hair mask indicates you need to leave it on for 20-30 minutes! I want to moisturize my hair quickly in the shower while I’m washing my face and shaving my bits – I don’t want to stand there like a nonce while the mask works itself into my hair!
Of course, I half wondered “well how good is this hair mask going to be if it only takes five minutes?”. That thought was quickly put to rest because this is hands down the best hair mask I have ever used. It is super concentrated and thick – you barely need any product at all (which is a slight relief since the tub is on the small side!). It sank into my hair incredibly quickly and my hair felt like absolute BUTTER when I was rinsing it out. Almost unbelievably, there’s no heavy residue left over from it either!
Final Thoughts
The one thing I didn’t get around to mentioning is that the scent on these products is to die for. The shampoo and conditioner smell lovely and rather neutral, but it’s the hair mask that really set me over the edge in terms of scents – it smells WONDERFUL! Fresh, clean… and there’s something in there that reminds me of my childhood.
So the products work great, they smell lovely and they don’t leave my hair feeling heavy – all huge wins in my book. I’ll definitely be picking up the Moisturizing Treatment whenever I run out!
