Hello Hair Mask | Hydrating Mask Island Escape Edition Review

I’ve been doing hot oil hair treatments for years. In-fact I discovered them when I was just 13 years old, and since then I’ve been totally hooked – to the point that I even make my own DIY Hair Oiling Treatment. Even before dying, frying, and using heat tools on my hair, it was already very dry and damage prone and I loved using oiling treatments to make my hair softer and healthier.

During my high-school years, I experimented with hair colours & cuts so much that people used to joke that I was ever-changing. I loved seeing my hair go from blonde to red to brunette (and then back to the start again) all within a few short months. Since growing up my hair was already dry-prone, all this back and forth with my hair colour & cut really took it’s toll – and hot oil treatments help keep my hair looking and feeling soft and healthy.

Nowadays, it’s rare to see me with a big hair change. I’ve found a hair colour I like, and I want to keep it healthy. The things that get me excited about my hair now are when I hear about a great new hair treatment, a fantastic hair serum, or a beautiful smelling leave-in conditioner. When I heard about Hello Hair Oil Treatments I was immediately excited- and I knew I had to give it a try.

Hello Hair Hydrating Mask Island Escape Edition Review

SCENT:

I want to start by talking about the scent of this product because it’s absolutely amazing. My boyfriend described the scent as a “super tropical piña colada” – lots of coconut, and bright notes of citrus.

APPLICATION:

The application is a bit messy since it is a liquid oil and not a creamy conditioner. The spout makes it simple enough to pour into your hands, but actually getting it through your hair can be a bit chaotic! I applied the oil to dry hair as recommended on the package and left it on for about 45 minutes.

 

I can’t stand when my hair feels oily, so I shampoo’d my hair twice to get out all of the oil and then used a light conditioner.  If you’ve ever done an at-home oil treatment, than chances are you know that they can leave your hair mighty oily! I used my Neutrogena Clarifying shampoo twice to get all the oil out of the roots of my hair.  I didn’t add any serum or detangler to my hair once I was out of the shower.

 

SUMMARY:

Since receiving my Hello Hair Island Escape Edition oil treatment, I’ve tried it out twice and both times I’ve been so thrilled with the results. From the incredible smell, to the fabulous results, this is a treatment I will absolutely 100% be re-purchasing.

Update: I have used the entire package, and I got to say that I really enjoyed this hair treatment. I do think you could get similar results by just creating your own at-home DIY oiling treatment, but this one does smell really lovely and I did quite like it. I have also purchased similar products at Sally’s for less so there definitely are cheaper options available locally. 

WORD OF CAUTION:

I would recommend this very heavy deep conditioner only if you’re like me and have very dry-prone, damaged hair. For example, my friend Leeanne has very healthy hair and she had a very negative experience with this oiling treatment because it was too heavy for her hair!
