Review: Roots Hair and Scalp Treatment

I've been feeling a love for the minty tingle recently, and so have decided to whack out my pot of Roots! Story time; I went for my hair cutting once after work because I needed it doing desperately and my 'regular' place didn't open that week because the owner was on holiday, but I couldn't wait. It needed doing. I decided to try somewhere upstairs from where I work in the shopping centre. First lesson learnt; Don't get your hair-cut in a shopping centre. I sat down in the chair and told the lady what I liked and how I usually have it done. I must have been talking in French as she did not listen to a word, and instead pretty much shaved the whole sides of my head, giving me a generic dickhead teenager hair cut. Lesson two; Be loyal to your hairdressers, other ones try to hurt you. This haircut was so short and I hate it when it's short. I quickly dashed back to work and grabbed Roots to help out.

Roots is a hair treatment that is pre-dominantly used on the scalp. It contains three different types of mint to stimulate the scalp, and aid hair growth. So if you're struggling with shorter hair that you're wanting to grow, or make look more thick, roots is for you. When it's on the scalp you really can feel the mint, it's very tingly (This is good, it's doing its job!) which stimulates hair follicles over time.

It's recommended for people with thine hair (thin and fine), as it also has honey in there which is fantastic for thickening, and adding moisture. There's also some Olive oil in there to add strength and versatility to the hair, making it appear thicker and fuller.

Apply this before a wash, to the scalp. Really massage it into the scalp as this helps the mint get to work easier, it really works it in this way. Wash it out after about twenty minutes, and voila! Your hair will not instantly grow in the shower, however you should notice a difference after about a week or two. I only use a small amount, as should you, as it is needed mainly on the scalp, and so you should be able to get a good weeks worth of uses out of it, if used daily. Some people use this every fortnight which would work well too, I tested it out daily as I was desperate for my hair to grow!

I would give this product a 5 out of 5, because it works excellently, I've never had an issue with my hair looking oily afterwards, and it did exactly what I needed it to do! Simply fantastic. I am, and will continue to be a fan of Lush hair care. Mark Constantine, CEO of Lush, is a trained trichologist (trichology is the study of hair) and has been studying hair for over 30 years, so he really knows what he's talking about!
