Let's Grow Those Locks, FAST!

Hello my little pumpkin dancers (first thing that popped into my head :|) I have recently been using this lovely shampoo & conditioner set from Nisim. Fast shampoo is now available in boots, however when I started using it, it was only available online.

About two years ago I decided to grow my hair out from a very short pixie cut. Growing your hair out is always a slow frustrating experience, I was desperate and Fast popped up in my 'Amazon recommends' list.

Fast is short for fortified amino scalp therapy. Basically this uses a 'blend of natural herbs, vitamins and amino acids to fortify hair and reduce breakage allowing for long beautiful looking hair'. Their words straight off the box. It's perfectly safe to use on colour treated hair, I used it when I was dying my hair red and didn't notice any stripping.

You get 300ml of shampoo and 300ml of conditioner which doesn't seem a lot, but if you use it wisely they can last for about a month maybe a little longer. The directions tell you to wash your hair everyday, which I'm not too keen on. I have been a bit lazy lately and not done it everyday, it does work a little better if you do from past experience. It will dry your hair out a bit if you wash it everyday so make sure you are using a hair mask once or twice a week.

The conditioner is a lot more moisturising this time around. Last time I noticed that it wasn't that great and also that it had a very chemical smell. The smell has since gone (must be a new formula) and the conditioner is a lot better, really makes my hair feel nourished.   

  I was, of course, very skeptical at the time as I really couldn't believe a shampoo and conditioner could make my hair grow faster. I Have very slow growing hair, usually it barely grows 1/2 inch a month. Once I started using this, I noticed that my hair was growing at least 1 inch every month.

It has been a while since I used this though, I had to stop because I just couldn't afford it anymore. But this was on offer, buy one get one half price in Boots. I couldn't say no to that could I? So I ended up getting 2 lots. The shampoo and conditioner can only be bought together in Boots at the moment, you can buy them separately on Amazon though.

If you would like a full list of the ingredients you can go to Nisim's website, they have a full list and it tells you why they have used the ingredients they have. I will be doing an update once I have been using this a little longer, that will most likely be a longer more detailed review.  

RRP: £24.99 for the set, available at Boots and Amazon.co.uk
