Ouai Haircare
March 21, 2017You may have seen Ouai haircare all over social media the past year and let me tell you, it definitely lives up to the hype. Jen Atkins, hairstylist to the Kardashians, created this product line to help achieve that chic, effortless, laid back style that everyone is looking for. Knowing that Jen Atkins was the creator of this brand had me running to purchase this product, but it also has some great benefits! According to their official website, their products are designed to help repair, strengthen, and nourish hair to help bring out it's natural beauty. You can go on their website to view the large variety of products they have! They also sell their products in some Sephora locations, so I made a stop while I was in Chicago to pick out a few. When I style my hair, I always go for loose, beachy, texturized waves so I couldn't decide between their wave spray or the texturizing hair spray. Instead, I purchased Jen's Style Edit. This box set contains three travel sized products. It includes the wave spray, texturizing hair spray, finishing creme, and six elastic hair ties. The box cost $25 which is equivalent to purchasing one product. I decided this would be the smarter purchase since I could test out which products I liked the most before committing to a full sized bottle.
Ouai Wave Spray - $26: This product is great when you want to achieve those loose beachy waves. After testing it out a few times, I absolutely love it. It doesn't spray out too heavy, so you aren't stuck with that crunchy feeling in your hair that other wave sprays can give you. I like to use it after I curl my hair to help loosen up the curl and add volume. My hair is naturally wavy, so on days where I don't feel like styling my hair, I will spray this in to help enhance my natural curl. This is the perfect product to use in the summertime if you are spending your days by the pool or beach!
Ouai Texturizing Hair Spray - $26: This is the perfect product to use when you want to put some life back into your hair! Not only does it build texture and add volume, it acts as a hair spray, so you get two products in one. Sometimes after shampooing and blowdrying my hair, it can become way too soft to style, so I like to add this in to help hold my curl. Also, it is great for second day hair because it absorbs oil. I find myself reaching for this product more than my regular dry shampoo.
Ouai Finishing Creme - $24: After I blow-dry my hair, it tends to be a little frizzy, so I like running this through my ends to help tame my hair. I love how soft and shiny my hair looks after using this product.
Overall, this has become my new favorite haircare brand. I noticed instant results when testing the products out for the first time and they helped achieve the style that I was looking for. I also noticed that my style seemed to last longer so I didn't have to do much to my hair when I woke up the next day. The one thing that I love the most about this brand is that Jen wanted to create professional products that are affordable. In my opinion, there are some professional haircare products that are way overpriced, so I love the price range that this brand has. I still feel like I'm buying quality products without breaking the bank. I also can't get over the packaging! It looks so chic and modern. After I made my purchase, I was so excited to go home and take pictures of the products because they photograph so well. The design is simple but it looks so luxurious. All of the products smell great too and it's not too overpowering where it gives me a headache! My favorite is the smell of the wave spray. It includes notes of Italian lemon, amber and white musk. It smells very fresh but also warm. After testing out these products, I think I am going to purchase everything from this box set. It's definitely worth it! I also plan on testing out their pomade and foam dry shampoo, which looks so cool. Look out for a review on those products!

I hate putting heat on my hair every day, but it ends up that way because I can't find anything good like this! My hair is naturally a little wavy and i'm always on the hunt to find products like this. All the ones i've tried before to work with my natural wave leave my hair crunchy, which I hate, so this stuff sounds awesome! I might have to get that travel size pack you got and try it out.
ReplyDeleteI've gone through so many wave sprays that would leave my hair crunchy and knotty! I'm so happy I finally found this product. I think you will really like it! The size of the travel bottle is pretty decent so you can get a longer use out of it, which is great!
DeleteI've heard of this brand before and would definitely consider trying it out! I love that these are great options for adding texture and wave to your hair without having to worry about adding more heat. Great review! :)
ReplyDeleteI have heard so many great things about these products and I have always wanted to try them! I am always trying to achieve that effortless and tousled look. It sounds like these products are definitely worth investing in. I think I will be trying them out soon!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the look of effortless, beachy hair and the Wave Spray sounds amazing for it! I can't stand crunchy hair either, so this seemed to me like a happy medium between a serum and hairspray. Thanks for the helpful review!
