The Expert's Opinion on NVNT

As with any new product, its merits are only ever as good as its feedback. Here are some comments made on the range so far from professional hairdressers and colourists on a variety of hair types and textures.

“Overall all of the products smell amazing. The colour protect conditioner leaves the hair feeling silky soft and gives an amazing shine. The blowdry priming spray is the perfect all-rounder to give the hair the perfect prep for blowdrying. The anti-humidity spray really smoothens out the hair and gives amazing shine. The curl definition cream gives a beautiful soft hold to natural curls leaving the hair soft and bouncy." Amie Jeffery

Before/After   Before/After

“I've been using the NVNT shampoo and conditioner, the conditioner is amazing! The curl cream works really well on my hair, my son has started to use it to tame his curls so easy for teenagers also. My daughter has pinched the style primer to help brush her hair. The products have a strong fragrance which is okay. (Me personally I don’t like strong fragrances) but are good products to use. Smooth cream works well also.” Amy Alderman @hairbyalderman “Well don’t these smell amazing! Used the colour protect shampoo & conditioner and the anti-humidity spray on a colour client today, she loved it so I brought them home to try on myself. Hair feels fab.” Nicky Wyatt

“The curl cream is gorgeous, I tried it on a client who has fine, coloured, very curly hair but likes it straight so used the colour protect shampoo and conditioner. Smelt and felt amazing, the comb went straight through with no tangling and not heavy on the hair – then used the smoothing cream to blow dry. Lovely result. I also tried it on my mane – I have thick, strong, wavy, curly hair. I normally leave mine curly but blow-dried mine smooth using a bit of curl cream and smoothing cream after shampoo and conditioner. Hair felt fab and still straight two days later.” Rachael Harvey Howell

“I used the colour protect shampoo and conditioner and styled using the curl definition cream and smoothing serum. I love the way it all makes my hair feel. After using the colour protect shampoo and conditioner my hair felt soft and manageable and knot-free. The curl cream was fantastic in managing my unruly curls and the smoothing serum just added shine and made my hair feel amazing. The anti-humidity spray works wonders especially this time of year when being so damp outside. The style primer is a great all-rounder and fantastic for prepping the client’s hair before blow drying. The sizes of the bottles are great and it feels like you get a lot of product out of it. This is a picture of my hair after using shampoo, conditioner, anti-humidity spray, serum and the curl cream.” Rushmeeta Lewis-Meisuria

“Loving the shampoo and conditioner with smoothing balm. The gloss and softness it leaves the hair…” Steph Curran

“Use shampoo and conditioner colour protect – great fragrance and low PH. I love this product.” Tomasz Kuśmierczyk
