HAIR: TRESemme 7 Day Smooth and Conair Flat Iron

"Long hair, don't care" - words to live by but not easily so. I love my long hair to bits but it can often be hard to maintain, unruly, and difficult to work with. As of late, I've welcomed the TRESemme 7 Day Smooth System and the Conair Flat Iron into my life and will likely never look back. 

Believe it or not, when it comes to hair I'm pretty low maintenance...I don't own any heated hair tools so it was interesting to test out a flat iron for the first time! 

The TRESemme 7 Day Smooth System consists of three products -  shampoo, conditioner and heat-activated treatment. Together, the system claims to keep hair sleek, shiny, and smooth for 7 days (or through 3 washes). Basically, you wash your hair as per usual with the shampoo and conditioner. Then, after you hop out of the shower, you apply the treatment liberally to the sections of your hair, blow dry, and then straighten for sleek, salon-perfect hair. 

TRESemme Expert Professional Keratin 7 Day Smooth System Shampoo ($8.99) - a fairly light, creamy, shampoo with the classic TRESemme "fresh and clean" scent. When worked into the hair it builds a mild lather and upon rinsing, hair doesn't feel stripped or dry. 

TRESemme Expert Professional Keratin 7 Day Smooth System Conditioner ($8.99) - similar to the shampoo, the conditioner is also lightweight. It leaves the hair feeling moisturized and soft without excess residue. 

TRESemme Expert Professional Keratin 7 Day Smooth System Serum ($7.99) - the scent of the conditioner, shampoo, and serum are the same... I love the consistency and the fresh scent. If you're going to pick up a single item from the system, this is the one you need! It's a hair-perfection-potion in a pump bottle. After using this, my hair looks like I just got a blowout. 

Conair 1" Flat Iron ($39.99) - a new tool for me, using such a small flat iron for my superbly thick hair takes around 15 minutes (which isn't half bad). I wish the red heated strips were slightly longer so that they could catch more surface area of my hair. As for everything else, there are no complaints. It heats up in 30 seconds, has 3 heat settings, and also features an auto-shut off for those of us who are forgetful. 

At the end of the day, it comes down to one question. Does this system work? YES. My hair has been looking pretty darn flawless (if I do say so myself). I've tried the system for the past month and I'm happy to say that it works for me. However, I've actually gone off the system to test out another set of shampoos/conditioners and my hair doesn't feel the same. I feel like the TRESemme 7 Day Smooth System is something I'll be coming back too quite soon... 

Do you use the same brand of hair products - shampoo, conditioner, styling (if so, what brand?)? Do you use heat tools often?
