Beauty Box: Paul Mitchell Super Strong Treatment

After watching several episodes of Game of Thrones and admiring Daenerys Targaryen’s beautiful silver-blonde hair, I decided I needed to go back to my natural blonde roots. My hair color at the time was a dark auburn brown color, so I knew the color change would be quite the process.

8 hours and 2 hair appointments later, I was able to achieve my desired fair hue. However, all the stripping and bleaching took a toll on my hair. An inch and a half needed to be cut off and the strands felt like straw. It seemed so delicate that I didn’t wash it for over a week and I feared putting any kind of heat on it. It was also super frizzy, which is something I had never experienced with my fine hair before. I knew I need to quench my hair’s thirst, so I set off on a hunt for mane rehydration. I went to Ulta and just planned on purchasing one of those single-use hair masks, but I couldn’t find any there. Lucky for me, one of their sales people recommended Paul Mitchell’s Super Strong Treatment.

She recommended that I use it like a conditioner but warned me that using it more than twice a week could end up weighing my hair down. I have used the product only 3 times since then and it has been a miracle worker! My hair feels smooth again and is reacting well to styling. I no longer have fear of blow drying it and it looks beautifully silky and shiny. Now if I could just find my Khal Drogo…
