Schwarzkopf - Drei Wetter Taft (Three Weather Taft) - (Ultimativ Styling Gel) Ultimate Styling Gel



This is a strong hold hair gel.

The scent is a marine scent, perhaps a little too strong for my liking.

As with some hair gels, this can leave the hair 'crunchy', so keep that in mind when using it.

Price: 5/5 ($2.80 for 150mL)
Scent: 2/5
Effectiveness: 3/5

Schwarzkopf - 3 Wetter Taft Pump- Haarspray Classic Extra Stark


This is a hair spray that comes as a pump spray.

The pump instead of an aerosol keeps it from spreading too far in the air and stinking up the house. It is also better for the environment.

It holds really well and does not disappoint.

Price: 4/5 ($4.64 for 150mL)
Scent: 2.5 (normal hairspray stink)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Same Product, Different Colour - Schwarzkopf - Brilliance Intense Permanent Colour - 47 Copper Mahogany


I honestly wasn't too happy with the result of this one, it was too dark and too brunette.
And unfortunately I got it as a twin pack, so I guess I'll have darker hair for a while (or bleach... bleach is tempting me)

Same Product, Different Colour - Schwarzkopf - Brilliance Intense Permanent Colour - 43 Red Passion


I'm going to level with you guys, I don't recall when I used this one.
But the box is in my blogging box, so I probably did use it.
Since the box isn't covered in curse words, I'm lead to believe that it was much like the other shades in this line.
Schwarzkopf sure know how to offer a range of red shades! (Don't stop ever)

Same Product, Different Colour - Schwarzkopf - Brilliance Intense - Permanent Colour - 37 Hypnotic Red



I did a before shot!!!



Ok, I used this colour last time and am really just redoing the roots but this is progress, people!

The colour of this shade really holds, as you can see by the before photo.


I asked Ma if she wanted to wrap my head in cling film, she said 'yes' before she even knew why I was asking.
We spend too much time together.

And the after:

Schwarzkopf - Brilliance Intense Permanent Colour - 85 Violet Vision

I got this after I decided I didn't want to keep putting (non-permanent) pink in my bleached hair. I wanted a permanent shade to grow out.
I went with purple because my sister suggested it XP

I thought this would be a good product for my purposes.

Initially, the colour was great, but after a few weeks, all of the blue tones were gone and my hair was just red :C

I really expected better from Schwarzkopf.

Price: 3/5 ($14.99)
Scent: 1/5 (standard hair dye smell)
Effectiveness: 1/5

Schwarzkopf - Nordic Blonde, L1++ Ultimate Lightener

I used this to bleach my hair when transitioning from dark to hot pink.
I would have taken photos, but because the amount of red in my hair it came out orange.
Here is a close approximation to how it looked:


Not the bombshell blonde I imagined, but it was my own fault.
This product was easy to use, smelt terrible (like a bleach will), and didn't damage my hair.

And it let me achieve this:

Same Product, Different Colour - Schwarzkopf - Live Colour - Ultra Brights, Cotton Candy Pink


My mum has this theory that hair dye gives you cancer and the darker the dye, the worse it is... I do not agree.
However, to keep her happy when I needed to touch up my pink hair, I went with a pastel pink dye.

It improved the colour quite a bit (my hair being bleached at this stage) and being the blogging genius that I am, I didn't take any before and after photos.

Schwarzkopf - Extra Care Hair Repair with Liquid Keratin - Ultimate Colour Shampoo


I picked this up at the same time that I put the permanent red dye in my hair, to try and keep the colour intensity for longer.
It smells like pears, lathers and cleans well.
As far as retaining colour, I don't personally feel that this shampoo made much of a difference, as I had a bit of colour fade (hence the use of the Live Colour dyes).

I don't feel the 'liquid keratin' in it made any difference either, my hair didn't feel less frizzy after use.

Price: 4/5 (rrp $6.99 for 400mL)
Scent: 2/5
Effectiveness: 3/5

Same Product, Different Colour - Schwarzkopf - Live Colour - Ultra Brights, Shocking Pink

After having red hair for a while, I decided to switch it up and do something I have always wanted to do... I dyed my hair pink!

This product acted just the same as the 'Red Embers' version, and I just love my new hair colour!
I didn't bleach it prior, so I got a lovely dark pink shade :)



Do we love it, or do we love it? :D

This shade also smelled like raspberry which is pretty cool.

... my parental units don't know yet...

Schwarzkopf - Live Colour - Red Embers

So, as I may or may not have mentioned, I dyed my hair red.
I did this with a permanent colour and while the result was nice, I wanted to make the colour more vibrant.
Enter the '8 washes' Schwarzkopf live colour!
This is a semi-permanent colour treatment that will wash out bit-by-bit (and the shower water will look like it is from 'Psycho')


The colour it added was quite true to what was shown on the box and it made my hair smell like hair dye (love that chemical-lly smell, by the way)

And because I am a great blogger, I didn't take any photos o.O

Price: 5/5 (rrp $4.89 for one box)
Scent: 1/5 (oh so traditional hair dye smell)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Schwarzkopf - Essence Ultime - Omega Repair Shampoo, Conditioner and BB Beauty Balm


I received this trio as a sample, as you may be able to guess by now, I wouldn't normally buy conditioner or hair BB cream.

So you can probably going to predict that I found these later two items too heavy for my hair (a correct prediction!)
However, unlike the Pantene I reviewed earlier, it didn't leave my hair feeling too bad... I guess less residue?

Also, my hair (although a bit heavy) looked good afterward! *gasp!*

The products have a vanilla and stone fruit smell to me, which is quite pleasant.

So if you have thicker hair (thicker than 0.03mm, I measured it), then give this stuff a chance (if you are so inclined)!

Price: 3/5 (rrp $14.99 per item)
Scent: 4/5
Effectiveness: 3/5
