I don’t talk about a lot of haircare stuff on here or in my videos. My hair, much like my skin, is fairly undemanding – I get it cut maybe once a year, I can style it without issue, it’ll hold a curl for days on end, and, maybe the most important point to highlight – it’s not dyed either. So for that reason, I tend to find that most haircare products work just fine on me without having to tinker around much with product combinations. For the most part, if a product says it’s going to do X on my hair, then it usually does!

So for this reason I don’t tend to be that interested in haircare products – since not much makes a difference in it. But, there are products out there that appeal to me (for whatever reason) and it can be fun to talk about those, and that’s where this post comes in. I was sent a bunch of items from Morrocanoil‘s SMOOTH range, and I was eager to try them out.

My initial reaction was that these smelled far too heavily of the argan oil that’s in it (which I tend to despise), but I found that with day to day wear I ended up enjoying the scent because it never clung to my hair too heavily. I hugely appreciate that the shampoo and conditioner come in different coloured bottles which makes it easy to grab the right one! I’m a daily shower/hair-washer and I found that these two worked out just fine for that. I never felt like my hair was heavy or weighed down, and I might even say I had less greasiness by the end of the day.

The Smoothing Mask was a once a week kind of treatment for me. It’s super thick and luxurious, but once again didn’t leave my hair feeling heavy (huge bonus). In combination with the Moroccanoil SMOOTH Shampoo and Conditioner, this worked out really well – but I can’t say that I noticed a difference on top of what the shampoo and conditioner were already doing for me.

The Smoothing Lotion is part of the SMOOTH range and was a great leave-in styling aid, but you really don’t need much. The first time I tried it I put a big glob, which wasn’t nearly as effective as distributing a smaller pump throughout my hair. I felt it helped retain a hold  a little bit better than normal, but also helped me comb through the tangles in my hair after a shower without having to use an additional leave-in conditioner.

The Molding Cream is part of their STYLE range and I was really unsure how to use this at first. I have long hair that doesn’t require a ton of tweaking in the front layers since they’ll just slide all around throughout the day. But, I found that this worked out great to tame any flyaways I may have when I put my hair up in a ponytail. I’m not usually after a super polished look for my hair, but taming flyaways does work out really well for some looks, so I found that after I’d yanked my hair back into a ponytail, I could smooth on a little bit of the molding cream along the top and sides of my head and it held everything down. You may need to touch up a bit throughout the day, but it really did help to keep those little punks in place.

Perhaps the most important thing I can say about this collection is that I didn’t realize this was the smoothing range until I sat down to write this post. And when I think back to the last week, I actually opted to wear my hair down every single day for work. This is a rarity for me as I far prefer to put it up every day at the office so I don’t have to deal with staticky hair getting all in my face while I’m at my computer. And I’m realizing now that I never once felt like I had a face full of static-laden hair, which encouraged me to continue wearing my hair down all week. Honestly, it’s a bit of a shock to me to put these pieces together and I can only attribute that to this Moroccanoil SMOOTH range. I don’t think you need all of the pieces from the range though – the shampoo and the conditioner seemed to manage my hair just fine!
