I’ll admit, when the Matrix folk said their new Oil Wonders Flash Blow Dry Oil could reduce the time it takes me to dry my hair by at least 50%, I was more than a little dubious.
The potential time saved works out at around 46 hours per year. I could do a lot with 46 hours. I could sleep for 46 hours. I could do 30 Bikram yoga classes (hahahaha!). I could finally do that 36-hour juice fast I’m always planning and still have 10 hours to spare. I could find the lids for all my Tupperware.
In any case I decided to give the magic spray a shot. According to the directions, three spritzes is all it takes to get going. It doesn’t feel like much but the Moroccan argan oil formula spreads out when you brush it through. Having separated my hair into the usual sections, I got to work with the hairdryer and quickly felt a big difference in my hair: the texture was far smoother and silkier than normal.
This silky hair fast turned into dry silky hair. Well whaddya know – it works!
Not only was my gruaig completely dry in less time than usual, it was also bouncier and far shinier (despite my collection of serums) and it smelled delicious.
If, like me, one of your biceps is slightly more shapely than the other from dangling your hairdryer above your head for 20 minutes a day, this could be the answer to your styling woes. Or just a neat way to get 10 minutes extra snooze time in when the alarm goes off.
