Have You Wash Your Hair with Mud?

I have naturally curly hair that's naturally thin and dry, so I do everything that I can to keep it moisturized, healthy and shiny. My curly hair routine usually involves:

• Washing my hair every other day.
• Using hair products (e.g., gel and hairspray) only when I go out. 
• Using a leave-in conditioner daily.
• Blow-drying my hair only when I have to.
• Never straightening my hair with chemicals or a flat iron.
• Never dying my hair.

When Adovia offered the chance to try its Dead Sea Mud Shampoo and Dead Sea Salt Deep Hair Conditioner, I jumped at the chance. It's not every day that you get to shampoo your hair with mud. Right?

When I got the shampoo, I found out that its texture is not like mud; it's like regular shampoo. The "mud" part comes from the fact that the company uses minerals found in the Dead Sea's silt to make the shampoo.

When I tried the shampoo, I noticed that it has a pleasant, clean smell that both men and women would enjoy. The color is also cool, like a shimmery, deep olive green. The shampoo is pretty sudsy, so a little goes a long way.

What I liked best is that the shampoo didn't dry out my hair. I attribute this to the olive oil and chamomile in the ingredients. 

Since shampoos work best with their complementary conditioners, I was eager to try the Dead Sea Salt conditioner. Again, the scent is pleasing; it smells like the shampoo. The conditioner felt hydrating, but not heavy or oily.

The benefit of the products working together were most the noticeable after I rinsed my hair. After it air-dried, my hair had more volume (this has never happened before) and was more manageable. I always thought that shampoos and conditioners all did the same thing, but I definitely noticed a positive difference with the Adovia products.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
