Leonor Greyl: Luxurious Hair Care

I alternate between five or six brands of shampoo, and my shower is starting to eerily resemble shelves at salons. My poor husband has no idea what he is putting on his hair and body, and often uses whatever is closest to him. The reason I use so many brands is because I've never really found one that I can't live without, (though I have many I "like") so I just keep switching around depending on my hair needs. But I think I have discovered the ultimate in hair care and can now throw away all the random bottles in my shower! Leonor Greyl, (a well known Parisian brand in Europe, but little known in the United States) is possibly the most luxurious and amazing hair care I have ever come across. (Jump to see the details!)
My favorite so far is the Volumizing Shampoo and Dry Hair Fleurs de Jasmine Nourishing Treatment Mask . Not only is my hair fabulously smooth and shiny afterward, but I do not feel any residue after using it for two weeks straight. What I love most, however, is the variety of products Leonor Greyl offers. If my hair is dry one week from hormones or PMS, I can switch to a dry hair shampoo. If I am oily from humid weather, I'll switch to the appropriate shampoo for the climate. The most interesting product is the Before Shampoo Treatment oil. You coat it on your hair to protect from sea/pool water and shampoo it out later. And if I ever start experiencing hair loss, there is something for that, too! I'll still have half a dozen bottles of shampoo in my shower, but they'll all be from Leonor Greyl. I can't wait to try the sun-care hair products when I go to Florida in May. Finally, a hair line has enough variety to keep me happy! There is even a multi-use body and hair shampoo, so my hubby can just grab and use without worrying about what he is using! At BeautyExclusives.

Dry Hair Care: This is great if you've been using a flat/curling iron too much, making your hair dry and brittle.

Colored/Permed Hair Care: I don't color my hair, yet. But, I plan on trying this when I do.

Curly/Frizzy Hair Care: I have a friend who has a patch of frizzy hair on the back of her head after giving birth. I'd suggest using this on that area. :)

Fine/Limp Hair Care: I have a lot of hair, so this does not happen often, but there have been moments when I use a heavy conditioner too often, and my hair gets limp and wimpy.

Dandruff Hair Care: This is gross, but during the winter months, my scalp got really flaky. I saw a dusting of flakes on my black sweater and almost gagged. The problem has gone away, but I could have used this during that time.

Oily Scalp Hair Care: The minute I go home to tropical Asia, the oil glands in my hair go into overdrive. I will keep this with me the next time I go home.

Hair Loss Hair Care: Not happening yet and hopefully never will, but you never know.

Hair Care for Men: Now this is nice--made for the needs of the Alpha male.

Multi-Use Body and Hair: Can you say, made for the hubby?
