Trevor Sorbie Straightening Balm

As a total straightening adict I love using my hair irons (Remmington Wet - Dry) however I find that my hair gets damaged quite quickly in the process. I have very fine, fly-away, blond hair which takes alot of controlling! In the past I have used Pantene ProV Smooth and Sleek but I find that it makes my hair very greasy. Then at Christmas a most excellent friend bought me the Trevor Sorbie Straightening Adict Shampoo, Conditioner and Protect, Flatter and shine spray. To my great delight I saw an instant improvement in my hair condition and even before blow drying it was straighter! So I decided to buy more, which lead me into Boots where I found that there ...  Read the complete review

I work really, really hard on getting my hair looking as good as it can possibly be. It's naughty hair with lots of issues. It's currently resting just below my shoulder blades, is dyed jet black and loves to be curly. However getting it looking nice and curly and without frizz is near on impossible so I actually find it easier to whack on my hair straighteners on 220c and use lots of products and I get a reasonable result straight. It's just a bit easier and I'm a lazy bones to be honest lol However I use alot and own alot of straightening products and I struggle to find anything really good that lives up to the claims that they usually have made about ...  Read the complete review

Like so many women these days I subject my poor hair to a never ending ordeal with heated appliances. I am lucky to have quite strong, thick hair that withstands quite a lot of damage but I feel I should make some effort to protect it.

On one of my trips to Boots I purchased the Trevor Sorbie straightening heat protection spray that I usually use. I noticed on the same shelf there were various other products in the range. The product I am now reviewing is called Trevor Sorbie Straightening Addict Smoothing Balm. This is not exactly ...  Read the complete review

Having run out of my usual brazil nut anti-frizz cream I searched around the bathroom cupboards to find something similar and stumbled across an unopened travel size of Trevor Sorbie straightening balm. I read the instructions which were to massage a pea sized amount through my damp hair and then blow dry or leave to dry naturally to achieve straighter shinier hair. After the first application I noticed that it had definitely taken away some of the waves and reduced the frizz from my dry, wild, bushy mane. Once the GHDs had been passed over it the results were pretty much as good as anything else I've tried. Unusually this doesn't leave your ...  Read the complete review

I simply love straightening my hair and my GHDs are one of my most prized possessions; I take them everywhere. However constant straightening inevitably takes its toll eventually. No matter how much GHD try and convince me that the straighteners seal all the hairs natural oil into the hair cuticle therefore preventing damage, I don?t think they can deny that regularly heating your hair to 210°C will cause damage in the long term. The best way to keep hair in good condition is to have it cut regularly but I?m growing my hair longer at the moment so going for the chop wasn?t quite what I had in mind, ...  Read the complete review
