I've always kept my hair washing routine pretty lowkey. Yes, shampoo and conditioner are a given, but anything beyond the basics leaves me stumped. I've definitely been guilty of reaching for the hair products on offer in my local supermarket and my bathroom shelves are stocked with classic brands like Pantene, Herbal Essences, and Alberto Balsam. While there's nothing wrong with these, my hair had been feeling a little lacklustre of late. Stuck in this never-ending winter, I've noticed that my hair is severely lacking the healthy shine and bounce it once had, especially since I jumped on the "gemini hair" trend.
After googling "products to make my hair shine", I found loads of hair oils, shine drops, and finishing creams that promise to make hair glisten, but in all honesty, I want to keep my routine low maintenance. I was tempted to try out "reverse hair washing" but I also need to keep things quick and easy. I also live in a small flat so "hair cycling" wasn't an option for me. So where's the easiest place to start? My shampoo and conditioner, of course. Enter the chat: Function of Beauty customisable hair booster range. Could this be the answer to saving my dry, tired hair? I decided to give it a try.
About the Function of Beauty Customisable Hair Booster:
Function of Beauty has four base shampoo and conditioners, which all feature a nude peach fragrance, based on hair type: straight, wavy, curly, and coily. Then, shoppers can customise the product to their individual needs via the Hair Goals Booster Shots. Up to three can be chosen at any one time, with options including to Strengthen, Deep Condition, Volumise, Shine, Curl Definition, Anti-Frizz, Soothe Scalp, Lengthen, Colour Protection, and Thermal Protection. What's even better is they all come in recycled bottles, are sulfate and paraben free, and 100 percent vegan.
What I Like About the Function of Beauty Customisable Hair Booster
I immediately liked the simplicity of this product. When I first started looking at all the options I was worried it wasn't going to be as straightforward as I originally thought, but actually, it includes just two steps. Firstly, pick a base. I went for the straight base (£12) as my hair is naturally as flat as a pancake. Then, I opted for the strengthen (£4), shine (£4), and thermal protection (£4) boosters to help cater to my personal needs.
Each of the boosters include different ingredients to help achieve the desired results. The strengthen booster includes pea sprout, which helps support natural elasticity and resilience; shine uses amaranth extract which softens and protects the hair; and thermal protection includes sesame protein which shields hair against the damaging effects of heat styling. On top of the boosters, the bases have a nice fruity scent which lingered in my hair after washing making it almost good enough to eat.
The combination of these products definitely brought my hair back to life. I have a really nice shine back and it feels silky smooth. I've also noticed that I have to wash my hair less often, going from 3 to 4 times a week to just once or twice instead.
How to Use the Function of Beauty Customisable Hair Booster
After picking the base and boosters, all I had to do was add them to the bottle and shake for 10-15 seconds. Each booster box comes with two pods, so there's one for your shampoo and one for your conditioner. I loved having this option because it meant I could totally mix things up. Next time, I'll probably just add shine to the conditioner, for example.
What to Consider about the Function of Beauty Customisable Hair Booster
One thing to note about this product is the extra cost of the boosters. The products are slightly more expensive compared to supermarket options as you have to essentially buy more than one product. To keep prices lower, you could always opt for just one or two boosters instead of three.
While I've found that they definitely keep my hair healthy and happy, I do still add a heat protection spray when using my hair dryer and hot brush, so they haven't completely removed extra products from my routine. Although, there is definitely less of a need for oils, masks, and conditioning creams, so when weighing up the pros and cons, it's worth it in my eyes.
