LOreal Styling Gel For Kids
---------------------------
I bought this product because I recently cut my sons hair with some hair shavers. What a disaster!! If youve ever cut a childs hair youll know how hard it can be to get them to sit still, in my sons case this is nigh on impossible as hes only 14 mths old.
I have tried taking him to the hairdressers but this proved to much for him and he promtly started screaming at the top of his voice lungs , lol.
So you can imagine my dilemma - he was starting to look like a hippy dude so I had to take action!! Well when I had finished shaving the back of his head and was quite pleased with the results - I then proceded onto the top - he wriggled around that much that the attachment popped of and he ended up with a wee bit missing in his fringe area (oh the guilt)
I felt terribly guilty about this and he also looked a little bit silly, lol. So off we popped to the shop to see if there was anything I could use to try and disguise my mistake!!
Not much choice really in my local chemist. Then I spotted this and thought this must be good, Ive seen it on tv. I paid for my LOreal raspberry burst hair gel (which wasnt exactly cheap at £1.99 for a 250ml bottle) and went home to try it out.
By the way he WAS wearing a hat to hide the said mistake, lol so he wasnt to embarrased.
The bottles a nice shape and its red and blue with yellow writting on it - very eye-catching. I personally dont think packaging is too important but, I suppose its got to be presentable hasnt it? The information on the bottle is quite a good read for a hair gel product!
THE INFORMATION
------------------
Extra gentle styling gel plus manager Not sticky Helps stop unruly hair in its tracks Suitable for all hair types Contains no alcohol (always a good thing in my book)
Its say on the bottle that its so gentle its tear free and Ophthalmologist tested (whatever that means)
I suppose if you using this on long hair it will help against tangling and knotted hair but, as my son had just been more or less scalped this wasnt really an issue!! So I squirted a small amount onto my palm as directed on the bottle and applied it to his hair - especially his fringe area - spiked what was left up and hay presto - he now looked very cool and no longer like hed had a barny (fight) with the barber!!
When it dries you cant really tell its on but the hair does stay where you styled it to so, thats good.
Extremely good in this case, lol..... You will all be pleased to learn that my sons hair is now doing fine and in recovery!! Its growing back and you can hardly tell where I accidently shaved his fringe off.

I would recommend this to any-one with kids but I would also like to add that I have a small worry about the product.
This product smells absolutely scrumptious - infact some kids may even find that it smells good enough to eat, so if you are letting your children use this themselves - make sure they know its for there hair and ABSOLUTELY not to be eaten.
It smells like raspberry jelly to me and kids will probably think so too. I still think its a top product hence the 5 star rating. Just be careful.
Happy styling every-one :)))
