Hair
girl Chanthara Kapahi is in for a treat to beat the summer heat!
“In the summertime, when the
weather is fine…” croons Shaggy on the radio, but unfortunately,
even though I feel sun-kissed, there are certain drawbacks of this
hot weather that our hair has to suffer—such as the constant
heat, which causes excess sebum secretion in our hair follicles,
resulting in oily hair almost every day.
This is the perfect time for a hair treat and I’m thrilled
at the thought of trying out Matrix’s newly launched Biospa
Cooling Mint Treatment. It is said to keep hair smooth, shiny and
cool. I walk into their academy (the service is available at select
Matrix salons, but I’ve been invited to try it at their Khar
training academy) feeling tired and washed out by the scorching
heat outside.
I’m instantly cheered up by the Matrix team as they work their
magic around me. We start with a relaxing head massage to stimulate
my hair follicles and then proceed to the Cooling Mint
Shampoo, which contains essence of mint and kola nut. This is followed
by a Biolage Vital Repair treatment serum application to retain
the nutrients in my hair and protect hair strands as well. Next
is the ultimate treatment—the Biolage Cooling Mint Masque,
which not just smells delicious but leaves me with a tingling, cooling
feeling. Ah, how refreshing!
After a rinse with cool water and a light blow-dry (the dryer’s
on a cool setting), my hair feels light and refreshed minus the
oil that was weighing my hair down when I arrived. I totally love
it and recommend it as an amazing way to beat the heat and feel
refreshed this summer!
