As the old saying goes, “Your hair is your crowning glory.” So naturally, we want to take very good care of our hair by cleansing it well and using conditioner to keep it in tip-top shape. We even style it, use heated tools, or have it colored, permed or rebonded. These things can damage hair but even little things like too much sun exposure can be damaging too. 

This is why it’s important to use the right type of hair products. The wrong type of products can actually dry out your hair and damage it. Conditioners are our first line of defense against hair damage, so we need one that is powerful enough to protect our hair from harsh elements and nourishing enough to prevent the loss of oil and moisture.

Dry hair is usually the first sign of hair damage, but damaged hair can show in many different ways. It can have split ends, look dull, lose its elasticity, tangle easily, or be rough to the touch. This roughness is what causes frizzy hair, when randoms strands stick out, also known as tutchang

I love to color my hair, which is one of the harshest treatments you can subject your hair to, so I really need to keep my hair in good condition. I found myself unsatisfied with a lot of conditioners that I’ve tried. A lot of them don’t moisturize my hair enough and don’t tame my chemically-treated, frizzy hair. 

Pantene makes the cut and is one of my go-to brands for intense conditioning! Recently, they released a new line called Collagen Miracle. The new Collagen Miracle is their most intensive line for unruly, frizzy and damaged hair. There are two products in the line: The Collagen Miracle Intensive Serum Conditioner (P299 for 300 ml) is a daily yet potent conditioner that will smoothen tutchangs. It has a pleasant floral scent that gets rid of frizz without weighing the hair down. It doesn’t leave a sticky feeling and washes off easily. For a more intensive treatment to really keep the hair healthy, the Collagen Miracle Treatment Shots (P49/12 ml) can be used several times a week. It helps keep hair smooth for up to 72 hours with regular use.

Collagen has many benefits for the skin, and for the hair as well. It is rich in amino acids that the body needs to build keratin, the protein that is found in human hair; helping to make it stronger. It also acts as an antioxidant and fights free radicals that cause damage to the hair. It is a potent moisturizer; it keeps the hair hydrated and helps make hair shiny and supple. It can also help improve the texture of damaged hair.

Pantene isn’t the only collagen hair product in the market, but Pantene’s Collagen Miracle line is superior to other collagen products because most hair collagen products use hydrolyzed collagen, which is collagen that is broken down into smaller units. On the other hand, Pantene’s Collagen Miracle line uses collagen with a triple helix structure, which is the natural structure of collagen. This adds an extra layer of strength to keep hair healthy that is smooth and frizz-free. Pantene’s Collagen Miracle line is definitely worth checking out.
