Over the last few weeks I have been using the Kalahari Melon Oil collection of products from HASK. I was especially excited to try the line when I find out HASK hair care is one of the fastest growing beauty brands in 2016 and that there's a HASK Shine Oil or Deep Conditioner purchased every 5 seconds! Very impressive!   

Sure, Life Isn’t Perfect But My Hair Is™

What if we told you the secret to preserving and nurturing color-treated hair comes from the desert? It’s true, and HASK bottled it up in the Kalahari Melon Oil Color Protection collection! The line features a Shampoo, Conditioner, Deep Conditioner and Shine Oil all formulated with Color Shield Complex, which helps protect color-treated hair from damage and fading caused by every day washing and heat styling.

Found in the African desert, the kalahari melon thrives by retaining moisture in the driest conditions. This powerhouse ingredient counteracts moisture loss and fading, leaving color-treated hair healthy and vibrant. Don’t damage your hair or your wallet with endless trips to the salon, add HASK Kalahari Melon Oil Color Protection collection to your routine for unbeatable color retention!

Before I dive in and begin to tell you about each product, I want to let you know that I am very picky when it comes to shampoo and conditioner. My hair is over processed, dry, thick and coarse, and products tend to get lost in my hair. Meaning the shampoo doesn't always lather up or I have to practically use an entire bottle of conditioner to cover my whole head of hair. Well, as you'll see below, HASK's Kalahari Melon Oil collection surpassed my expectations and has done wonders for my hair! 

Kalahari Melon Oil Color Protection Shampoo (Shields & Replenishes) - The first thing I noticed when using this shampoo is its light fruity scent. It is not overpowering and the scent is a refreshing start to my day. The shampoo is a pearly white color with a thick consistency that will not slip away from you in the shower. It lathers up very well and a golf ball-sized amount was enough to suds up my entire head of hair. I always have problems with shampoos leaving my hair a little brassy looking, but not this shampoo. The color retention has been outstanding and I love that it contains no sulfates, parabens, phthalates, gluten, drying alcohol or artificial colors. Retail price: $5.99! A steal for this salon-quality shampoo! 

Kalahari Melon Oil Color Protection Conditioner (Shields & Replenishes) Like its sister shampoo, the conditioner has a light fruity scent and works well in my hair. I apply a golf ball-sized amount to my hair and work it through the hair from mid-section to bottom, focusing on the ends of my hair. I then lightly squeeze out the excess and add it to the top of my head. It is a thick white consistency that, like the shampoo, will not slip away in the shower and is outstanding at preserving my hair color. The conditioner (like the shampoo) contains no sulfates, parabens, phthalates, gluten, drying alcohol or artificial colors. Retails for $5.99!

Kalahari Melon Oil Protection Shine Treatment - Love this stuff! The Shine Treatment is super lightweight, but adds a whole lot of shine! I use a pea-sized amount for my whole head of hair. I apply it to my hair when wet (avoiding the roots), style, and add a tiny bit more to the ends after blow drying and styling. It seals and protects my hair from heat damage, counteracts moisture loss and fading, and leaves my hair feeling silky smooth, never greasy. It's amazing how it absorbs in the hair and doesn't leave a greasy feeling at all! The vial retails for $2.99! Amazing price for such a quality product!  Can you see why the HASK company is growing so quickly?!   

Kalahari Melon Oil Color Protection Deep Conditioner - This ultra-restorative, deep conditioning treatment is fantastic! I massaged it into my clean, wet hair and left it on for about 10 minutes and rinsed. After styling my hair as usual, all I can say is silky, silky, silky!  I'm seriously blown away by the prices for these amazing products too! This packet retails for $2.99 and I have yet to find a deep conditioner that works this well without going to a salon.

I wish I had taken a "before" photo to show you how dry and damaged my hair was prior to using Kalahari Melon Oil products. I added highlights to my color-treated hair and it was way over-processed, dry and brittle. I credit HASK's Kalahari Melon Oil products as the reason why my hair is now smoother, shinier and healthier! And that's only after one week! I highly recommend Kalahari Melon Oil products and can't wait to see what the long-term results will look like.
