I Snailed my Hair with Kenra Platinum

If you are interested in looking as youthful as possible, I recommend paying more attention to your hair. A lot of people ignore their hair in their anti-aging regimen, but actually the hair also ages, so in order to look your best and keep your youthful looks, it is essential to treat your hair right and even look for anti-aging hair products.

The top 10 signs of aging hair include:

dulling
thinning
breakage
frizz
dryness
decreased elasticity
decreased porosity (how well your hair can absorb and retain moisture)
increased scalp irritation
unmanageability
coarse texture

I am so excited to be able to partner with Kenra Professional again to try out their Platinum Snail Collection. First of all, what exactly is Snail Essence?

Snail Essence is a natural protein derived from snail slime. It was discovered by Chilean farmers who noticed that their hands were softer after they touched snails. It smoothes, softens and fills in cracks of the hair and skin for restoring and prolonging youth. No snails are harmed in the making of this product. Snail Essence is actually a byproduct of escargot farms that has been repurposed for hair and skin products.

I wanted to create special hair experience for a concert, so I used Kenra Platinum products to create my look. I started by washing and conditioning my hair. I love the tangy lemon, lush rose and sweet jasmine aroma of these products.

I started with the Snail Anti-aging Shampoo, a youth prolonging shampoo, fights all 10 signs of aging hair, provides legendary softness & youthful movement, restores shine & prolongs agility of hair at any age, is of course enriched with Snail Essence, and formulated without sulfates, parabens, or sodium chloride.

The Snail Anti-aging Conditioner (also a youth prolonging conditioner) is enriched with Snail Essence and also fights all 10 signs of aging hair, restores managability & prolongs youth, delivers moisture, radiance, & resilience to the hair. I massaged this into my damp hair after cleansing with Kenra Platinum Snail Anti-Aging Shampoo.

Next I applied some Snail CC Crème, an anti-age 10-IN-1 complete corrective crème that fights all 10 signs of aging hair. It is a lightweight crème that does not provide styling hold, but instead restores & prolongs youth in the hair. It, too is enriched with Snail Essence and formulated without sulfates & parabens. I like that I can apply this through damp or dry hair and then style as desired, even if I want to just air dry my hair, since it isn’t sticky or greasy.

Once I blow dried my hair, I was able to start my hair style. I used Kenra Shaping Spray 21, the first Professional alcohol-free hairspray. This is perfect for maximum moisture retention (what you want for youthful looking hair), optimal working time (I don’t have to rush because it allows for working styles before setting), and extra firm hold & high shine.

I finished the look with Heat Block 22, an ultra-fine finishing spray featuring unique Bee Propolis. Bees make propolis, which they use to glue the materials of their hives together, by mixing beeswax and other secretions with resins from the buds of conifer and poplar trees. There is some evidence that Bee Propolis can help with hair regrowth. Heat Block 22 is a multi-benefit styler that provides heat protection up to 450°F (which is the temperature I use when I style my hair). I love how the ultra fine mist dries on contact and allows for clean release from styling tools. This is such an improvement to other styling products I have used that burn and leave a residue on your hair and styling tools (flat iron, usually). Thank goodness the smell of burning hair is something I no longer have to deal with! My style lasted 8+ hours thanks to the high hold finish. It’s also comforting to know that no bees are harmed in the production of this product.
