BBreview: Bumble and Bumble Grooming Creme
Bumble & Bumble is an amazing brand founded in NYC, 'the city of hairdressing legends' and their goal is to develop products that are able to withstand the demands of a photo shoot and/or fashion shows.
Now, I love Bb, but some of their products really turn me off, others, I fall in love with, some, I really just don't know what to think of!
Take Bumble and Bumble Grooming Creme, this stuff is fabulous, I repeat, fabulous. I used it when I was rushing in the morning and had absolutely no time for my flat iron.
Now, a bit of background on my hair, I have really weird hair. Like really weird hair. First off, it's dry and chemically damaged from my years of highlighting my (once) blonde hair. After chemically damaged, comes the fact that it likes to frizz at the worst time possible, and is wavy, but curls a bit at the bottom.
Normally, I would use Fekkai's Straight Away, which eliminates frizz and straightens my hair, but I was out. So the Grooming Creme it was.
It was a nice, creamy consistency, not too thick or thin, and I smoothed a drop onto my hair, hoping for the best. It got rid of my frizzies, and my hair wasn't as straight as it would be with, say my flat iron, but it was good. Super easy to spread through hair, not greasy in the least yet with good shine (a plus!), didn't weigh down my hair, and made my hair feel really conditioned. Yay! A good alternative to my Fekkai. But wait, what's that smell? I guess I wasn't really paying attention to the stuff when I put it on my hair, or maybe it took a while for the smell to come out. I can't really put my finger on it, it just smells bad. Sort of plasticky alcohol (if that makes sense), with a touch of something that reminds me of bug spray! The smell did not dissipate until later that day, but it leaves me pondering the question; Is it good, or bad?
It's a good product in every aspect, except the smell! Oh, and one note, it is entirely possible to go overboard with this stuff, so use a tiny, tiny smidge and work it into your hair, adding more if neccesary. Going overboard with this stuff would definitely make your hair smell really, really, bad, not to mention the overall greasiness and stringy-ness of your hair!
So, what do you think? Good, or bad?
