UPDATE MY HONEST REVIEW 1 YEAR LATER – Finally trying Monat hair products.

monat natural hair care

Okay guys, so after much deliberation I’m finally trying out these Monat products that I keep hearing so many good things about and I’m taking you all on my hair transformation journey!

My real motivation for trying these products came shortly after receiving a Brazilian Blowout back in June. Immediately, after getting the smoothing treatment I noticed a TON of new breakage throughout my hair.

I’m almost a bit embarrassed at how distressed my hair is at the moment – I’ve been rocking a lot of pony tails & buns because I just cant stand to see how dehydrated and dull my hair looks.

A good friend of mine had been trying to get me to try these products for MONTHS, until she sent me the Monat Blow Out Cream and WOW.

I literally noticed an immediate difference after styling my hair from using just ONE Monat product (I was still using my old shampoo/conditioner).

I gave it a few more tries to see if this “new product glow” was going to fade and it didn’t. My hair actually looked better and better each time I used it! So I said F it let’s try this thing that I hear so many women rave about.

For those that know me well, know I’m very particular with my hair products – I only use good, salon quality products. I have naturally curly frizzy hair that I blow dry & flat iron after every wash – so it needs extra love and care!

All of the different hair products & brands I was going through just weren’t doing it for me. Not to mention, most of these high end brands I was using weren’t even naturally based like Monat is.

monat natural hair care split ends
REJUVABEADS Split End Mender
Heals split ends and other damaged or stressed areas along the hair shaft, eliminating breakage and frizz, decreasing friction, increasing shine and helping improve color.

Since I was so blown-away from just trying one of their products, I decided to go for it.

I’ll be sharing this hair journey with you guys and letting you know how these products work for my unruly, dry, damaged hair.

I’ve already got my BEFORE pictures, I cant wait to hopefully share some improved AFTER Monat pictures.

monat natural hair care mask
Replenish Masque
A repairing and hydrating masque ideal for damaged and moisture-starved
hair that penetrates and nurtures the scalp while helping boost natural hair
growth, improve follicle strength, and reduce hair thinning. Infuses
essential moisture and delivers vital nutrients to help eliminate frizz and
reduce split ends.

I’m so looking forward to better, healthier hair!

*update after using monat products for 1 full year

Okay friends, so here is my honest review on Monat hair products.

I have been consistently using Monat products for over a year (14 months to be exact) and to be completely honest with you…I was not blown away.

Yes, it makes my hair feels soft, the products smell lovely and I appreciate the clean ingredients in these products – but it just did not do anything special for my hair.

In fact, for those of you that know me well – know that I have extremely curly, frizzy hair which I blow dry after every wash (I try to only wash my hair 1-2x a week max)

So my hair is already naturally pretty unruly and difficult to manage, so I had somewhat low expectations for these products.

I am in the process of transitioning to a new haircare line, that has a big celebrity following – so stay tuned!

XO, Jess
