Life is short. We all get just 24 hours a day. Killing two birds with one stone (a small flock even) gives us more bang for our buck. So what if you could style your hair beautifully, and quickly, and easily, AND be giving your hair a restorative protective treatment at the same time? Does that sound like a good deal?
This is what LifeSaver UV gives so many people across a range of hair types and styles. Plus UV protection too. From long and frizzy to my own shorter more sober hair, which is fluffy and uncontrollable without a teaspoon of LifeSaver UV combed through after washing.
The ‘before’ hair in the left picture was damped down with LifeSaver UV and diffused with a dryer. It could also have been left to dry naturally. The ‘after’ picture on the right was taken 15 minutes later.
LifeSaver UV is a leave-in styling treatment that was developed after the LifeSaver Prewash Treatment. We discovered many people were leaving the original treatment in for days, instead of washing it off, because they liked the smooth beachy effect. But the LifeSaver Prewash was too heavy as a leave-in for finer to normal hair so we developed the lighter LifeSaver UV as a leave-in styling treatment and added more UV protection with a natural SPF ingredient from sunflowers.
A teaspoon of LifeSaver UV combed through damp hair before blowdrying, keeps the hair hydrated and helps protect from heat styling.
LifeSaver UV was liberally applied to the damp hair, combed through and just left to dry naturally. That took about 90 minutes.
A little LifeSaver UV before blowdrying helps inject hydration, body and protect from heat.
Gorgeous but a little unruly. We use LifeSaver UV on his wet hair and let it dry which takes about 30 minutes. It starts out elegantly groomed and with the rough and tumble of the school day and rainy weather the curl can return but much smoother and more polished.
Applying LifeSaver direct gives instant smoothness and defined waves. When blowdrying her hair smooth she uses LifeSaver UV as a heat protector but less of it than when drying naturally.
LifeSaver UV has been a Godsend. I use it as a styling product but because it has treatment qualities, my hair is in better condition and easier to manage than it’s been for 20 years.
It may also be helped by taking two of our Nutritional Supplements a day, using Scalp Exfoliating Shampoo and finishing with Ten Second Transformation. Those were the only products I used on my own hair but now it’s so much longer I also use the Magic Oil which is brilliant too. If your lockdown hair’s getting bigger than a Regency wig. This video might help.
LifeSaver UV is the best sun protection for your hair bar staying indoors or wearing a sombrero. And that goes for beach combers and city dwellers. We tested LifeSaver UV in two of the harshest climates for hair. First, we conducted a seven-day sun and seawater test in the Maldives where temperatures averaged 32 degrees Centigrade. For the tests, one long weft of hair was cut into three pieces. One piece stayed indoors, two were pinned to the dock. One of these was protected with LifeSaver UV twice a day. And one was left unprotected. Sea water was poured over both wefts once a day.
The comparisons were stark. At the end of day seven, the unprotected blonde hair on the right had become brittle, faded and distinctly thinner. I was surprised myself at just how noticeable the differences were and how obviously damaging just seven days of sun and seawater is for unprotected hair. We only fully notice with these controlled experiments where we can compare.
After seven days, the unprotected brown hair weft on the right became drier, thinner and faded.
Then we tested against sun and pool water in the blistering Negev desert, with a weft of brown hair cut in two. The right-hand weft had LifeSaver UV applied twice a day. The left-hand weft of hair was left unprotected. They were each dipped in the swimming pool once each day.
It’s only when you see the comparison side by side as each day passes that you can understand clearly just how mercilessly the sun rips colour and condition out of hair.
LifeSaver UV’s amazing protective properties help protect from thinning, drying, and colour fade but allow the hair to be worn in attractive styles.
Hair shrinks and wastes away under the sun’s rays. Long hair would take 3-4 years to fully replace the damage at the ends, and in that time would likely have had this punishment repeated a dozen times on successive holidays. LifeSaver UV Leave-in Styling Treatment is sun-cream for hair.
