I’ve never been one for injectables. In fact, the thought of a needle being poked into my face is honestly terrifying.
But when I heard about Tryo hair salon offering ‘hair Botox’ for luscious locks, I thought: ‘f**k it’.
But before you give me a pat on the back for overcoming my fears, it’s important to know that so-called ‘hair Botox’ works a little differently to traditional Botox treatments.
In fact, it’s totally non-invasive and it’s more of a specialised deep conditioning treatment for your locks.
There are no needles involved. Instead, the solution is slathered onto your hair before you sit under a laser (more on that later).
The aim is to leave your hair looking smoother, softer and fuller – similar to the way that Botox smooths out those fine lines and wrinkles – get it?
I was keen to try it, but part of me questioned if it was a bit of a beauty fad. Well, how wrong I was.
To say I’m obsessed with my hair after the treatment would be an understatement.
It’s been five days since I got it done and I haven’t needed to wash my hair, it’s not greasy. Instead it’s sleek, intensely shiny and soft as hell – you can see for yourself in the video below!
I saw a friend on Friday who I told about the treatment, to which she reached out and touched my hair before looking at me and saying: ‘I’m getting it’.
The whole process took about an hour and a half (Picture: Alice Giddings)
