Naturally Based Anti-Aging Hair Care with MONAT #Partner

***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my post. All opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.***

Anyone who knows me is well aware of the fact that I love pampering my hair. I've got super thick, wavy, longish hair, which just happens to be purple right now. (Hey, don't judge. It's Halloween season, and this is a semi-permanent, Vegan, direct deposit color that will gradually wash out.) Anyway, since I do color my hair on occasion, I am always super picky about the products that I use to keep it soft, shiny, full, and healthy. 

So naturally, when I was contacted by Krista Lent about Monat Hair Care and their revolutionary line of naturally-based, anti-aging hair care products, I was more than a little bit intrigued. 

Monat offers products for women, men, and kids. Their products contain Capixyl, an extract proven to promote hair regrowth/growth, that is free of toxic chemicals. And also a patented oil, called Rejuveniqe, made up of 11 unique oils from around the world. Monat considers their products as treatment systems because they continue to improve the health of your hair over time from the inside out, not just covering the outside of the hair. 

Monat's product line is also great for all hair types, making all hair types more manageable. The proven hair growth is better than results from minoxidil or nioxin and is done without harsh chemicals or side effects. Men and women with thin or thinning hair, or no hair, are able to regain their confidence. How cool is that?! 

Here is a list of things you DON'T have to worry about when choosing Monat: 

• NO Parabens - Could be linked to chronic disorders.
• NO Sulfates - irritating to skin and scalp.
• NO DEA/MEA - can be irritating to skin and eyes and could be linked to chronic disorders.
• NO Phthalates - long-term exposure could be toxic.
• NO PEG - can be linked to chronic disorders
• NO Phenoxyethanol - can be irritating to the eyes and skin.
• NO Ethanol - can be drying to the hair and cause frizz and damage.
• NO Petrochemicals - can coat the hair shaft causing moisture loss and suffocation of the shaft.
• NO Glutens - can cause allergic reactions to sensitive individuals.
• NO Sodium Chloride and NO Harsh Salt System - can build up in tissues and cause dryness and dehydration.
• NO Harmful Colors - can be toxic to skin and scalp and linked to chronic disorders.
• NO Harmful Fragances - can be irritating and linked to chronic disease.

Krista Lent, a Monat consultant, generously sent me an assortment of Monat products to try for myself. Included in this bundle are the following products:

• Revitalize Conditioner A gentle volumizing conditioner for fine, limp and lifeless hair that penetrates and nurtures the scalp while helping boost natural growth, improve follicle strength, and reduce hair thinning. Delivers weightless moisture and vital nutrients to help plump and energize hair from roots to ends. Fine, flat hair is left touchably soft, shiny, and youthful. Safe to use on colored or chemically treated hair and extensions.
• Renew Shampoo A salt and sulfate-free gentle, hydrating cleanser that penetrates and moisturizes the scalp. Helps boost natural hair growth and improves follicle strength to aid in reducing hair thinning. Supports the restoration of the hair’s youthful vitality by adding essential moisture back into the hair. Safe to use on colored and/or chemically treated hair and extensions. Infused with REJUVENIQE™ Oil Intensive – our revolutionary oil treatment – this gentle, salt-and-sulfate free shampoo is gentle enough for even the weakest strands.
• Moxie Magnifying Mousse Infused with REJUVENIQE™, which helps to condition the hair while providing a touchably soft hold. Supports weightless body and volume without any stiffness or crunchiness. This revolutionary blend of clinically proven ingredients assists in achieving an all-over fuller look and feel for thin and flat strands. The inclusion of Crodasorb™ helps protect the hair against harmful UV rays which can lead to dryness. This product is appropriate for all hair types and textures, including chemically and/or color treated hair.

By mimicking the body’s own chemistry, our revolutionary replenishing treatment can address oxidative stress and adds volume and shine. A little goes a long way; just a drop is all you need! Nourish and energize your scalp with an invigorating blend of 11+ unique molecular ingredients –including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, beta-carotene and omega-3 fatty acids – that replace the body’s own natural oils!

I've been using my personalized collection of Monat hair care products for a couple of weeks now. All I can say is WOW. These products definitely leave my hair feeling soft, hydrated, and full of volume and bounce. 

A few things to note about Monat: A little product goes a VERY long way. When shampooing and conditioning, I only need about a nickel-sized dab and I'm all set. The same is true for the Moxie Magnifying Mousse, which has GOT to be the best mousse I've tried in a LONG time. This mousse can also be used rather sparingly, and gives nice hold and volume without any crunchy feeling. It doesn't leave my hair "burnt out" feeling, either, like many styling products tend to do.  

I usually wash my hair a few times a week, and with Monat's Renew Shampoo, I like to wash twice. The first wash, which doesn't produce a ton of lather but that's totally okay, works to loosen up the build up and grime that comes with daily life and styling. The second wash, which includes a lot more lathering action, really gets down to the bottom of things for a nice, deep clean. The Revitalize Conditioner leaves my hair soft, touchable, and shiny, too. 

The star of the show, though, would have to be the REJUVENIQE™ Oil Intensive. It is super concentrated, so all you need is a drop or 2 of this liquid gold. This can be used on the hair and scalp for amazingly gorgeous hair, or it can be used on the face as a moisturizer....Oh! You can also add a drop or 2 to your mascara to help pamper those lashes, too! This oil is light, and doesn't leave behind a crazy, greasy residue. It absorbs rapidly, simply leaving behind soft, supple, gorgeous skin or hair. Hooray for versatility! I just love products that have multiple uses! 

Another perk? When I use my REJUVENIQE™ Oil Intensive treatment, Dan swears I smell like delicious, homemade lemon bars. This oil has a wonderful scent that actually does smell like lemony baked goods. 

Anyway, overall, I cannot say enough good things about Monat Hair Care. Every product I've tried has done wonderful things for my color-treated hair, and I absolutely love how soft and healthy it feels! 

If you've never checked out this brand before, try it! I think you'll be as pleasantly surprised as I am! Be sure to visit Monat with Krista Lent and she'll happily answer any questions you may have.
