For the last time, here is my Spring Fever VoxBox:

OSIS Rough Rubber
Last but certainly not least, I am reviewing Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ "Rough Rubber." Like the TastyKake product, there were three possible products you could receive. I am SUPER glad that I got this one.
My hair is very thick and wavy. I don't typically use products on my hair. I shampoo, condition, and let it alone. Hairstylists usually exclaim over how healthy my hair is because I don't color it, and the only heat styling I use is a straightener. (AND I don't even use those all of the time.) The only other product I use on my hair is mousse....occasionally. I use mousse to scrunch my hair.
What I'm trying to say is that I was at a loss for what to even do with this stuff.
Then I got an email from Influenster with suggestions on how to use OSiS+ products, and I discovered that I could basically use this product to scrunch my hair instead of mousse. So after showering, I combed out my hair:
P.S. I apologize for the poor quality of these "selfies." I was having lighting trouble with my iPhone. |
Then I got a scoop of the Rough Rubber, flipped my head upside-down and got to scrunching. This was the result:
I'm always a little weirded out by the pieces of hair around my face when I scrunch my hair. They NEVER lay right. So, I pulled them back and bobby-pinned.
And then I spent about 5 minutes try to get the following picture to show you the back.
I really, really liked this product. My hair didn't feel sticky or crunchy. The waves looked natural and lasted all day. It was easy to use, and I didn't need nearly as much of this as I do mousse. When I use mousse, I typically scrunch my hair in three sections: bottom, middle, and top. I didn't do that with this.
What I don't like (and this is my problem with most hair products) is that I needed to wash my hair the next day. With hair this thick, I do not wash it every day. I usually wash every other day, and sometimes, I go longer than that. I don't like using hair products because you usually need to wash it out the next day. I was hoping that this would be different. The smell is a little odd, but it's not overwhelming enough to discontinue use.
If you're a hair scruncher, I totally recommend this product! Has anyone else out there used OSiS+ products? Any hair styling tips or suggestions for Rough Rubber?? (Please keep in mind that I'm totally hair-styling impaired...)
I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
These are my opinions only. I am not compensated by Influenster or Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ for my thoughts on this product.

I just got word that I am getting a glamour vox box. I'm excited to see what goodies I get to try :)
I've never used this product - my scrunching vehicle of choice right now is Tresseme's hair gel. BUT, a couple of years ago, one of my friend's moms (strange but true) pointed out that if I didn't comb my hair out first, it would probably scrunch better. She was SO RIGHT. I just towel dry my hair and shake it all up with my fingers, then put in the product. It definitely looks scrunchier/curlier that way. Then when I wash it next, I start with conditioner and that removes any knots that may have happened.
Not saying that's the only way to go, but I definitely know what it's like to have long, thick hair - and since it's summer, you can always try it on a day when you're not going anywhere to see how it turns out. : )
As an aside, your hair always looks super cute when you pin it back like that!
Also, I signed up for influenster and I just can't figure it out... any tips are welcome. LOL
