We put the Shine Spray to the test. Here's what our Social Media Coordinator, Beth Morton, had to say about it...
"This product just smells amazing. If you've got the time to deal with wet hair in the morning then this is definitely one that will wake up your senses. Let the citrusy grapefruit scent wash over and ready you for the day to come! Upon the first use of this product I noticed immediately how soft my hair felt afterwards. Within just a couple of days of using this product before blow drying my hair (as advised on instructions), my usual frizz fuzz that sits atop my head, had completely disappeared and my hair was silky smooth. This product is step number 4 within the Lisa Shepherd Hair Boss range, so I can only imagine how amazing my hair would feel after following all the steps within the product collection."
