Hair is so difficult to style in the summer. I just want to wash and go with no fuss, but it takes extra work to achieve volume and banish the frizz!
I have been sent some amazing hair products for my honest review. Below is a fragrance made just for the hair, styling products to give volume during the heat of summer and products to keep hair looking healthy all day long!
Tocca Hair Fragrance ($36 USD, 3.2 fl. oz.) — Think of this hair mist as a perfume that’s been specially engineered for your hair. Crafted with a delicate blend of moisturizing oils, these mists won’t be harsh on your strands! It’s time to stop spritzing your locks with standard drying perfume & instead leave a subtle trail of scent-sational notes. Bring a touch of luxury to your everyday hair care with this lightweight mist, fragrant with Tocca’s signature scents:
Florence: an alluring combination of bergamot, crushed violet petals and blond wood (FLORAL)
Cleopatra: rich amber patchouli blends royally with vanilla musk and hints of tuberose and grapefruit (SPICE)
Colette: a lush mix of bergamot, citrus, juniper and pink peppercorn mingle with florals, musk and woods (FRESH)
Liliana: neroli, gardenia and faint peach (FRESH)
Stella: a flirtatious combination of sheer musk, white freesia, blood orange and spicy lily (FRESH)
What I think: I was sent this in Colette to test. And I love it! The bottle is gorgeous. The spray smells fresh and sultry. Perfect for hot summer days. The spray isn’t sticky or harmful to my hair. The only thing is that it isn’t very long lasting, I have to reapply during the day. But, I do love having scent in my hair!

What I think: The Diametress is my favorite of the three, because I have thin hair and it does appear thicker after use. The ProMend leaves my hair soft and smooth. I also love the Frizz Defy spray. It’s perfect for the summer humidity when my hair is so frizzy. It smooths the cuticle and leaves my hair shiny.
