Festival season is officially in full swing and you know what that means… lots of fun in the sun! But let’s be real- one of the top priorities at festivals nowadays is looking cute and styling your hair perfectly, and I’m here for it!! One thing that isn’t great that typically comes along with festival season, is damaged and “tired” hair. Thank goodness this year Pantene is the official haircare sponsor for Coachella, Stagecoach, and Firefly and they created the Pantene Festival Hair Kit, a limited edition portable haircare pack, with all the essentials to keep your hair looking radiant and fresh! I have a festival this summer on my bucket list and can’t wait to take the Festival Hair Kit with me! I’ve already been using the products in the meantime and think it’s such a great idea so I’m excited to share all the details today on the blog!
The limited-edition Pantene Festival Hair Kit includes 5 amazing (and highly recommended) essential haircare products that come packaged up in a perfectly-sized portable pack so you can take it with you on-the-go! I’ve already used, tested out, and love these products so much, that I totally recommend you try them! The first three are what I’d use before and during the festival, and the remaining two are great products to nourish my hair after the festival:
PRE/DURING FESTIVAL:
1. Dry Shampoo: I’m a die-hard dry shampoo fan so there’s no surprise that this is my #1 used product from the Festival Hair Kit! Sweaty gym hair? Dry shampoo. Don’t feel like washing your hair on day 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the festival? Dry shampoo. I rarely go a day without using Dry Shampoo and Pantene has mastered a fresh feeling, leaving your hair clean in-between washes! It really is my BFF. Just spray at the roots, or wherever refreshment is needed most. Massage with fingertips and remove excess with the swipe of a brush. It’s so simple!
2. Airspray (alcohol-free hairspray): This is the lightest weight hairspray I’ve tried! It really locks in your hairstyle without that crunchy feeling. The cool thing about this Airspray is that it’s alcohol-free AND it’s “brushable” for a strong hold all day and night long!
3. On-The-Go Frizz Iron: I get asked what my natural hair is like, and oh my gosh, sometimes it feels like a lion’s mane- literally one big frizzy mess, which is why I always have to straighten my hair before it’s curled. Well, thanks to Pantene’s small, but mighty, On-The-Go Frizz Iron, I can tame my frizz without the heat for an instant fix! Genius! Close the Frizz Iron around your hair and glide from top to bottom.
POST FESTIVAL:
4. Intense Rescue Shots (I wrote a full blog post about them here): The name of the product says it all! This is a one-stop shop for rescuing intensely damaged hair and is the best TLC for all of the hair clips, braids, hair dye, heat, and a lot of wear and tear from the styling! All you have to do is wash your hair with shampoo as normal, rinse, then apply the shot onto your damp hair and massage from the root of your hair to the tips. Simply wait 30 seconds, rinse for 30 seconds, and voila- your hair will feel so much smoother and healthy!
5. Nourishing Mask Sachets: These give an instant hydration boost and visibly healthier, shinier and stronger hair. While in the shower, after shampooing, place a half dollar amount inside the hands, rub together and comb mask into hair from mid-shaft to ends. Leave on for 5-7 minutes (or longer if desired!). Then, rinse thoroughly.
I’ve been using Pantene’s Dry Shampoo and Intense Rescue Shots for at least 6 months after I discovered them and can definitely say they are game changers. You already know that I live for a good dry shampoo after the gym every day (and this one from Pantene is everything)! I also love the invention of the On-The-Go Frizz Iron, because ain’t nobody got time to fix frizzy hair so this tool makes it so simple!
Not only is this Pantene Festival Hair Kit perfect for festivals (are you attending any this season?) but it’s perfect for traveling and the upcoming warmer months! I recently went to Florida and threw the portable kit filled with all the essential haircare needs in my suitcase. Being out in the sun on my recent trips has been super fun, but the sun and styling then restyling my locks can take a toll on my hair! Enter: the Festival Hair Kit that helped me enjoy my vacations and experiences without having to worry about my hair. What’s your tried and true haircare product you can’t live without?
