The Shower Conditioning Brush Review

by Missy Chrissy October 13, 2015

 

Hi Everyone! My name is Chrissy and I'm a Canadian Youtube personality/stylist from Vancouver, BC. I have a love for all things beauty - especially beauty on a budget. I strive to find my subscribers the best beauty tips, hair ideas and styling choices to help you save money and look your absolute best.

I've been using Remington products my whole life - and I was so excited when Remington contacted me to try out the new Shower Conditioning Brush. As a platinum blonde, with all the bleach and toner im putting on my hair every 6-8 weeks - I really needed a miracle. Even though I use one of the best argon oil conditioners on the market, my ends are constantly dry and breaking off. I love having long hair, so cutting it all off isn't really an option for me and with the amount of breakage I had - it was taking forever to grow out. The first time I used this brush, I noticed an immediate difference in the texture of my hair. It felt hydrated, soft and smooth. I didn't have to brush through my towel dried hair either - which was when the most  breakage was happening.  After a week of using the conditioning brush, my hair finally had the shine, silkiness and volume that I had been searching for. Not only did this brush restore my damaged hair, it provided me with a super amazing scalp massage each time I used it. Scalp massages stimulate hair growth, which just keeps adding to this list of amazing benefits to this brush.

 

 

I hope you love this brush as much as I do. I'm going to keep using this as part of my shower routine. Remington, you certainly saved my hair!

My Hair Care Routine

by Becca Leah October 5, 2015

 

Hi guys! My name is Becca and I’m a guest blogger on the Remington channel! I create beauty and fashion videos over on my channel (Becca Leah). In this video I talk about my hair care routine and the steps I take to keep my hair healthy. I start off by using shampoo and conditioner. With my conditioner, I use the Remington conditioning brush to brush the conditioner through my hair. It distributes the conditioner evenly throughout my hair and doesn’t leave any clumps. After I use the brush, it leaves my hair feeling soft and easy to style. After styling, I use hairspray to keep my curls in tact throughout the day. Lastly, in between washes I apply dry shampoo of a powder solution to my roots and that gets rid of all of the bad oils in my hair and makes it look and feel fresh and ready to go.

The Science of Conditioning

by Remington Ready September 24, 2015

 

 

 

Hair goes through a lot. Washing, brushing, drying, curling, straightening—all these things and more can leave hair dry and brittle.

 

That’s why you use conditioner. It brings hair back to its natural beauty with a full and healthy look. (It smells pretty nice, too.) 

 

It’s usually easy to see the benefits of using conditioner, but do you know what’s really going on when you work it through your hair? Let’s take a look at the science behind hair conditioner and see how to get the most out of using it.

 

 

 

 

Here’s a simple explanation about the structure of your hair: Each hair is made up of tiny cuticles. Under a microscope, these cuticles look like overlapping flakes spiraling along the hair from root to tip. Of course, the hair we see on our heads is not actually alive, so these cuticles don’t receive nutrients from the body. That means they can easily become frayed and weakened from heat and styling.

 

That’s where conditioner comes in handy. Conditioners contain a variety of ingredients that are supposed to smooth out hair and give it that healthy look.

 

Examples of these substances are: surfactants, oils, humectants, silicones, and proteins.

 

Different conditioners contain varying amounts of these, but they’re all intended to smooth out cuticles and seal hair to prevent it from future styling damage.

 

The most important thing to keep in mind is that conditioner needs to be applied completely to all hair strands for it to be effective. That can be hard to do sometimes, especially if you have long, thick hair. But there are ways to make it easier.

 

 

 

 

The Remington Conditioning Brush is designed to maximize conditioner distribution. It dispenses conditioner as you work the detangling silicon bristles through your hair, leaving nourishment along the entire hair strand.

 

The brush is proven to be four times more effective than manual application, and it works with any conditioner for all hair types. Make the Remington Conditioning Brush part of your beauty routine and see what science can do for your hair.

 

Shower Conditioning Brush Review

by Sonja September 11, 2015

 

 

 

I remember back when I would comb my hair in the shower after applying conditioner in an attempt to thoroughly saturate it. But that wasn't so great for my tresses because the comb put a lot of stress on my hair and pulled some of it out with every use. But with a comfortable detangling brush like this that also dispenses my favorite conditioner, my hair-cleaning process has never been easier. My hair looks and feels better than ever! Read more below to see how this great new product can improve your daily routine.

 

About The Product

 

The Shower Conditioning Brush is a convenient way to condition your hair and detangle it at the same time. Just put your favorite conditioner into the reservoir and press the dispensing button while you work the silicon bristles effortlessly through your hair. It might look intimidating or even completely foreign to some, but if you're familiar with the Tangle Teezer, you'll definitely love this one because the silicon bristles are much softer and more spread apart, which allows you to brush your hair gently but also effectively.

 

How to Use

 

 

To fill the reservoir with conditioner, remove the cap by simply turning it to the right as you would open a regular bottle or dispenser. The first thing you see should be a plastic film with instructions. Don't throw it away, it's got important information for you! As stated in the instructions, remove the film first, then fill the reservoir with a conditioner of your choice, then place the plastic film on top of the conditioner and reattach the lid. Once that's done, all you have to do is push the soft grip button on the lid to dispense the conditioner through the three small ports shown above.

 

Thoughts

 

I've been using this for the past couple weeks whenever I apply conditioner and I'd say that it has certainly become a permanent addition to my hair care routine. The smooth silicon teeth of the brush make detangling super painless and easy, and since the bristles are quite far apart, there's very little fallout which minimizes the possibility of hair damage. The three ports inside the brush also help dispense the conditioner evenly and saturate all of my hair completely, which can't always be accomplished with just my fingers. In my experience, it works best to fill the brush fully with conditioner so that the product can escape the dispenser easily, and that's also why the plastic film is necessary - so that once you push the dispense button, the conditioner comes out straight through the ports evenly.

In a nutshell, I'm truly pleased with this innovative and efficient product. It's an easy and much more effective way to evenly distribute conditioner to your hair and provide maximum moisture for a healthy, radiant look. My hair feels incredibly silky and smooth every time I use this brush!

 

The Shower Conditioning Brush launches at Walmart and Target on September 1st for $9.99, so grab yours when you get the chance!

 

As always, thanks for stopping by. 'Til next time! xoxo,

Ways To Protect Your Hair

by Remington Ready April 15, 2015

 

Beautiful style starts with healthy hair. To keep hair healthy, you have to protect it against damage from the environment and from styling. Here are a few of the most important tips to keep your hair healthy, smooth, and strong.

 

 

Avoid exposure to harsh weather

You might not think weather or a little sun could do much damage, but all that exposure can really take a toll! Excessive dirt, heat, pollution or sun can cause breakage and dry out hair. It can also have harsh effects on your scalp, even creating scalp conditions or infections (EW!). So be sure to cover your flowing locks during a day in the sun or a dusty area with a hat or scarf. Go ahead and take advantage of the giant sun hat trend. You could also try a UV protection spray or conditioner like the Ubuntu Oil Colour Fade Protection Oil from Ulta ($12.99).

 

Be gentle with wet hair

Okay, we all know wet hair breaks easily, but we had to say it anyway: DON’T MESS WITH WET HAIR. It’s way more vulnerable to breakage than dry hair. It all starts in the shower. Don’t scrub your hair too aggressively; massage your hair as if you were hand washing your delicates. Once out of the shower gently towel dry, but don’t twist hair. Use a wide tooth comb to detangle and you’re all set to style!

 

Condition your hair the right way

Conditioner is crucial to protecting your hair, along with making it look awesome. It’s the one hair product you should spend a little more on to get something that really does its job right. We recommend It’s A 10! Miracle Daily Conditioner from Target ($14.99), which also have UV protection! Apply conditioner to the bottom ¾ of your hair and make sure to work it into your strands gently. Also, as summer rolls around, try putting on some light conditioner before hitting the pool or beach.

 

Brush carefully

Your grandma might have told you to brush hair 100 strokes a day. And while it helps distribute oils, it can also damage your hair if it’s not done right. Use an ionic bristle for less frizz or a detangler brush if you need to. Even better, use a conditioning brush like the PROtect micro-conditioning styling brush ($10.99) for a healthy shine. Overall, just handle with care. You should know if you’re brushing too hard if you notice a lot of hair in your brush afterwards.

 

Use protective styling tools

Unless your natural hair is just the way you like it, chances are you can’t help using heat to dry or style it. So make sure your styling tools are being as protective as possible while you style. Keep the heat setting as low as possible to get the style you want.

Look for dryers with ceramic and ionic technology like the T|Studio PROtect Hair Dryer ($47.99). This dryer has a conditioning ring that conditions hair as you dry for a healthy finish. For flat irons or curling tools, try to find products with high ceramic content so heat is distributed equally, minimizing the risk of damaging your hair.The T|Studio PROtect Flat Iron ($82.99) has vapor infusion technology that actually conditions hair with a macadamia treatment while you straighten. That means smoother and healthier hair!
