What can’t Rihanna do? Since disrupting the makeup industry in 2017 with Fenty Beauty’s truly inclusive 40-shade foundation range (the brand now boasts 50 shades), the music icon-turned-business mogul has This person started Fenty Hair.
It’s no surprise that hair care was Rihanna’s next natural chapter. While most public figures can be identified by their signature hairstyles, the Bajan multi-hyphenate is known for his innovative approach to style. “Hair has always been very personal to me, and my hairstyle has been an indicator of my evolution and growth over the years,” Rihanna said in a statement. “So starting Fenty Hair was a real passion for me.”
Formulated in collaboration with Fenty’s in-house stylists and team of leading chemists, and tested on all hair types and textures, the Core Collection includes nine shampoos, two conditioners, one treatment, and four treatments. hair care and styling products (priced from £15 to £34). One styler and one tool.
Fenty Hair products infused with Replenicore-5 are clinically tested with a proprietary complex designed to repair, strengthen, moisturize, smooth, and protect hair and scalp. “Scalp health is the backbone of hair health, so we made sure this complex included scalp care and conditioning,” Rihanna said.
The five main ingredients in Replenicore-5 are: Barbados Gooseberry (promotes hydration), Amino Acids (builds protein), Green Tea Extract (powerful antioxidant), Upcycled Jackfruit Extract (rich in nutrients and vitamins); Hydrolyzed plant protein (optimized to prevent overconsumption). -proteination).
Fenty Hair Review: Verdict
While repair was the most important factor when formulating Fenty Hair, getting the right scent was second most important. Rihanna, known as one of the most fragrant celebrities, said, “I wanted Fenty Hair to have a scent so great that you can’t stop smelling your hair all day and when you’re sleeping next to your boo.” ” she said.
“At first, top notes of (golden) amber, lemon, and sparkling yuzu appear. Then the scent of lily, freesia, and coconut reaches the heart. Everyone says you smell so good, and what do you think? They’ll ask you if you’re wearing one.
What I can certainly attest to is that the first time I tried Rich One Moisture Repair Shampoo and Rich One Deep Conditioner, my partner walked into the steamy bathroom and said, “This smells so good in here, have a great holiday.” I remember that,” he said.
As a curly hair girl (type 3C to 4A), I shampoo and deep condition once on the weekend and do a conditioner-only rinse mid-week to boost hydration and revive my curly hair pattern . To be honest, The Rich One shampoo and conditioner were perfectly fine. My hair is so healthy that I don’t really notice the difference between shampoo and conditioner. Unless the product is terrible (yes, that sometimes happens with products that are dry, hard to detangle, and don’t smell very delicious, Fenty does not apply). Since these are restorative products, I’ve only been testing them for a week so I’m interested to see how they improve my hair health (less hair fall) in the long term.
Moving on to Superstar’s styling and treatment products. Without a doubt, Homecurl Curl Defining Cream is the best I’ve ever used. To get moisturized and defined curls, we usually use a two-step process: use a curl cream, followed by a curl-defining gel. While this is a perfect method, it tends to build up over time and no one wants to use two products when they can use one.
The cream is light and smooth, slightly sticky and not sticky. It’s best applied to wet or damp hair from roots to ends, by raking the tangles out of your hair with your fingers. After diffusing or air-drying, there’s no need to shake off the crispiness before you get soft, defined curls and coils. It also smells divine, and the best part? The finish is surprisingly long-lasting. It takes 5 days to wash and use instead of the 3 days I’m used to.
To finish, I used Control Type Hair Thickening Edge Control Gel and Sidestick 3-In-1 Edge Tool. Perfect for parting hair, smoothing edges, and stroking baby hair, Edge Control Gel provides a glossy, smooth hold and dries soft and non-stripping.
I was looking for a go-to product to protect my curls from heat, either for blowouts or as a final step before diffusing. And then Fenty Hair arrived. The protective 5-In-1 heat-resistant styler is designed to protect up to 230°C (450°F), repair split ends, and reduce breakage.
After two passes with the straightener, I had shiny, bouncy hair. When you’re ready to get your curly hair back, Comeback Kid Instant Damage Repair Treatment comes into play. It strengthens hair by penetrating deep into the cortex and repairing damaged keratin structures. You can wash it off after 5 minutes like I did, or you can leave the treatment on after shampooing.
If you are convinced to try out all of Fenty Hair’s products for yourself, you won’t regret it. The shampoo and conditioner are perfect for any hair type that needs hydration. Treatments and heat protectors are perfect for people who frequently reach for hot tools. Styling products, on the other hand, are a must-have for curly, coiled, and wavy hair. Rihanna has done it again.
