The Easy Rider Giveaway!



  Kevin Murphy's Easy Rider single handedly changed my mind about the "coolness" of hair products.  It was the first exposure I had to this unique line from Australia.    It stuck me as innovative,  modern and effective.  I recommend it to my curly haired clients, men and women alike.  The universally appealing scent makes it unisex, as well as the packaging.  Its one of those marketing sweethearts-  it sells itself.  

  It's not just for curly hair though-  it will work in a number of different hair textures.  I use it to style short wavy cuts,  to add definition and de-frizz.  It also works great on long hair, as a texture cream applied while wet.  It tames the unruly and defines the dried out ends of a bleach blonde.  Its cruelty free!  It's water-soluble,  so it washes out with shampoo.  I find it works well on second (or third or fourth) day hair. 

   Some of the notable ingredients include: Green tea, Horse Chestnut extract, Jasmine,  tangerine and Lavender oil.   It smells incredible-  not too feminine or masculine,  mostly just clean and plant-like. 

  The packaging is minimal,  a light aqua green box,  with a handy closure.  Its 3.4 oz/100g,  which is a LOT of product in my opinion.  The box is easily re-purposed after the product has run out.  I LOVE when I can re-purpose packaging, and this box is very sturdy.    It is also recyclable plastic,  if you aren't the re-using type.   

   I tend to tread carefully with fine hair with this product, as it could weigh your hair down if not applied correctly, or too heavy-handedly.  Its definitely the type of product to be used delicately,  always starting with a small amount, and adding more as needed.   

     FOR MY FIRST EVER GIVEAWAY,  I will be giving away THREE of these babies!   The giveaway is open internationally, and closes on Feb 28th, 2014.  The winner will be announced here on my blog!
