As someone with over a decade of experience in the beauty industry, it’d be easy to assume that I’ve never dealt with damaged hair. But the truth is most days, convenience trumps best practices. I know tight ponytails and buns aren’t great for my strands (or edges), but when I need to get out of the door in a hurry and still look put together, they’re my go-to. Despite being equipped with all the knowledge to have an incredibly healthy hair, I still need to rely on professional hair products to bring my damaged hair back to life.
When I was sent the Biolage Professional Strength Recovery line, it couldn’t have come at a better time. My hair was in some desperate need of TLC and a highly moisturizing and strengthening arsenal of products was just what the (hair) doctor ordered. Read on to find out how the Biolage Professional Strength Recovery line repaired my damaged hair.

How I Use Biolage Professional Strength Recovery In My Routine
When I received the Biolage Professional Strength Recovery line, I was coming off a hectic week where I relied heavily on my emotional support bun. You know the bun. The one you slick your hair into day after day so that at least if nothing else goes your way, you know your hair looks put together. Well, it helped me survive the week, but at a cost. My hair looked and felt extremely dry and brittle. The loose strands of hair wrapped around my hair tie told me that my mane was in serious need of some repair.
I hit the shower and lathered up my strands with the Strength Recovery Shampoo to start my routine. The formula was so creamy for a moment, I thought I had accidentally grabbed the conditioner. As I began to work the shampoo through my strands, I could feel my snarls start to smooth, and my hair detangle beneath my fingers. While I know the benefits of double shampooing, it’s a step I often skip because sometimes it can feel like shampoo makes my tangles even worse. But I was happy to lather up with the Strength Recovery formula a second time.
After rinsing out the shampoo, I opted to skip the conditioner and go straight to the Deep Treatment Mask. The formula was thick but spread through my mane easily as I worked it through my hair evenly. Once my strands were completely coated, I clipped my hair on the top of my head and let the treatment mask sit in my hair for 10 minutes while I went about the rest of my shower routine. After 10 minutes, I rinsed out half of the treatment and used a wide tooth comb to detangle my hair. Seeing as the detangling process began while I was shampooing my hair, completely detangling took just a few minutes. Once my curls were snarl-free, I rinsed the remaining treatment out of my hair.
Once I stepped out of the shower, I reached for the Strength Recovery Repairing Spray and sprayed it throughout my curls. I loved how it made my hair smell, that quintessential salon smell. While the mist was incredibly lightweight, it made my hair feel smoother than it was a moment before. It was the perfect hair priming spray before applying my styling products.
While I noticed fewer loose strands in my bathtub than usual while using the Strength Recovery system, it will take a few more weeks to see the effects of this hair care routine truly. But if my most recent wash-and-go is any indication, Biolage has a real winner in the Strength Recovery line. If you’re dealing with breakage and weakened strands, don’t wait to add this to your routine.
