Bumble and Bumble Repair Blow Dry Creme

As a result of having nearly every hair color under the sun and constantly getting bored with it, I feel like I've tried a decent amount of hair products in my lifetime. After hating the Bumble and Bumble sea salt spray a few years ago, I pretty much wrote the brand off completely. However, I was recently given the smaller (2 oz.) tube of this creme and I have to admit, it's a total GAME CHANGER.


PROS: 
I use the smallest amount of product and get the best results. The full size bottle is $30 and the small one is $14...not exactly wallet friendly BUT you do get what you pay for! I can see this bottle lasting months and I'm so in love with it that I can justify the price. I use about a nickel-sized amount and run it through the bottom half of damp hair that's mostly dry, and then blow dry all over before running a round brush through the ends. I was seriously blown away (pun not intended haha) at the results! My hair seriously felt like silk and looked like it was just professionally done. It had shine, volume, the layers were bouncy and defined, and the style held up without hairspray. It continues to last for days, I would only suggest a spray of dry shampoo between days and avoid getting the product near your roots. I've never gotten so many compliments on my hair and personally felt so confident with how it looked!


CONS: 
If you get it near your roots it can feel kind of greasy, especially if you're trying to wear your style for more than a day. By the next day the roots can lose a lot of volume and feel oily even if you didn't get a lot of product up there but it's nothing serious. Batiste makes the best dry shampoo in the world and it's cheap so I'd suggest it for extending the use of the creme. Another con is the price. As I mentioned before the full size bottle runs for $30 which is hard for me to spend on product but it's quickly become a holy grail item for me.

IS IT WORTH IT? 
YES! I've NEVER found a product like this; I usually feel pretty "meh" about the products I use but as I've said I get the most amazing results and can see the bottle lasting long enough to justify the price tag. I'd HIGHLY recommend everyone gives this product a try.
