Today we have a Monday shampoo and conditioner review. Haircare is now getting more and more popular as people have started to realize how important it is. Not only that, but hair care is also getting cheaper, so more people have access to it. In this article, I want to talk about a hair care product called MONDAY Hair Care that is so popular nowadays.
Before, this product was only available in Australia and New Zealand. Now Monday shampoo and conditioner is everywhere. The brand has been really trying to build a name for itself in recent months, and I can clearly see the results. It just seems amazing to me that they have put so much thought into the product and made it so much more appealing than most other products. For example, MONDAY Hair Care is really instagrammable, so it’s not surprising to see its pictures all over the internet.
Believe me, in this day and age, a product that looks good to be on the internet is always worth the attention. At least just for its appearance. Now, let’s see if MONDAY shampoo and conditioner hair care works as well as it looks.
What is MONDAY Shampoo and Conditioner Hair Care Line
MONDAY is a luxury brand that many people don’t know. This brand is known to blend luxury and drugstore vibes that are also SLS and paraben-free, animal cruelty-free, and use various sustainable materials. I have talked about how instagrammable their product is, but the packaging is minimalistic. You’ll know what I’m talking about when looking at the bottle.
Monday offers four different conditioners and shampoos that can help various hair types from straight to frizzy and even from oily to dry. Also, more information about SLS and paraben if you didn’t know already. SLS stands for Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which is a chemical cleansing agent that is commonly used to create the lathering effect to remove oils and dirt. Now that may sound good an all, but the problem is that it can damage your hair in the long term, especially if you have a sensitive scalp.
Parabens, on the other hand, is a preservative that prevents mold and bacteria from building up inside the packaging of a product. Again, that may sound good, but parabens contains weak estrogen-like properties that have been proven to cause damage to the scalp and hair.
What are MONDAY’s other ingredients?
MONDAY has many great ingredients that are beneficial for your hair. I am going to list a few of them here. You’ll notice that most of the ingredients are natural, and that is because MONDAY likes to combine nature and science to create the best product.
- Ginger root extract. It stimulates the scalp by increasing the blood flow, which can lead to increased hair growth.
- Coconut root extract. It can clean and moisturize the scalp, which is effective for people with a dry scalp.
- Artichoke leaf extract. It protects the hair cuticles thanks to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
My MONDAY Shampoo and Conditioner Review
There are four main products of MONDAY: the VOLUME conditioner and shampoo, SMOOTH conditioner, and GENTLE shampoo. It’s time to get into this MONDAY shampoo and conditioner review. The first thing I notice is the fragrance, which smells floral yet fruity but not overpowering. I can sense the scent dissipates almost immediately once I leave the shower.
Now for the bottles, they are all made of 100% recycled material. The packaging is basically perfect if not for the pump. My problem with the pump is the nozzle is too small, which forces me to grab the bobble and press the nozzle a few times to get enough of the content.
The shampoo’s lather is beautiful; my first wash felt amazing. I have never used a shampoo that can properly wash my hair completely in one wash before, especially for the first time. However, it’s just my habit to wash my hair twice.
I want to mention that the VOLUME shampoo tends to put knots in my hair for some reason. This could be caused by a specific chemical reaction in the shampoo to my hair. I do not have the same problem when using the GENTLE shampoo so keep that in mind.
Both VOLUME and SMOOTH conditioners are incredible. I really think they are both effective and beautiful conditioners. Just imagine a product that is in between a hair mask and a conditioner. The consistency is just right, perfect for my hair.
Concluding This MONDAY Shampoo and Conditioner Review
I can say that I am satisfied with MONDAY’s products. After finishing my hair care routine, I can feel that my hair is really smooth. However, I want to mention that I don’t notice a big difference in volume when using the VOLUME shampoo and conditioner together.
Other than that, I do live the shine and weightless bounce in the back of my hair. It is exactly the result that I have been looking for. Overall, I think the brand is worth the money and I get the value that I wanted.
