I typically go for super moisturizing hair products, like the Mark Hill MiracOILicious intensive treatment I reviewed yesterday, here. I adore the MiracOILicious treatment for making my dry hair soft and smooth. I will definitely be trying the other products in that range.
For testing purposes, I wanted to try the volumizing line from Mark Hill. Big It Up! shampoo and Bigger is Better! conditioner delivered on their promise for hair with body, bounce, and volume. I haven’t had good luck with other brands volumizing lines in the past, probably because I have thick heavy hair!
On my hair, the Big It Up! shampoo cleansed like a clarifying shampoo, without stripping it dry. Win! It also made my hair super shiny. A big bonus! The conditioner is a little lightweight for my dry hair, but I think it would be perfect for someone with hair that’s finer than mine.
Big It Up! Shampoo ingredients:
Aqua (Water), Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, PEG 200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmitate, Decyl Glucoside, Sodium Chloride, Glyceryl Laurate, Sodium Benzoate, PEG 7 Glyceryl Cocoate, PEG 60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Parfum (Fragrance), Citric Acid, Methoxy PEG/PPG 7/3 Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Polyquaternium 10, Panthenol, Propylene Glycol, Bambusa Vulgaris (Leaf/Stem) Extract, Linalool, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Butylphenyl Methlypropronial, Hexyl Cinnamal
Bigger Is Better Conditioner ingredients:
Aqua (Water), Cetearyl Alcohol, Paraffinium Liquidum (Mineral Oil), Centrimonium Chloride, Behentrimonium Chloride, Parfum (Fragrance), Sodium Benzoate, Oleyl Erucate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Lactic Acid, Isopropyl Alcohol, Polyquaternium 37, Panthenol, Squalane, Polyquaternium 10, Propylene Glycol, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, PPG 1 Trideceth 6, Bambusa Vulgaris (Leaf/Stem) Extract, Linalool, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Hexyl Cinnamal
If you have a Walgreens near you, I believe the Mark Hill line is 20% off this week. In the UK, Mark Hill products can be found in Boots. You can also find Mark Hill Love Big Hair on amazon: (it looks like they only have the conditioner, not the shampoo) Mark Hill Big Is Better Volume Conditioner
If you’ve tried anything from Mark Hill haircare, I’d love to hear about it!! I got a fab haircut and color yesterday. Maybe I’ll post pics!!

Headed off to Walgreens. Stat.
Amber, please post the related hair pix. Would love to see.
I need a good haircut, but this mane is gonna be growing LONG cause with work and school right now, there’s no time until December to see my stylist. In the meantime, maybe Mark Hill can help me with these products.
Thanks for the head’s up (no pun intended)!

Did you get anything from Walgreens Lisa? I posted the pic on Instagram. It’s just a crappy pic I took in the car, really not blog worthy lol! Are you on IG?
Ooooooooooh. I agree, I will be looking for the Mark Hill products next time I’m at Walgreens. I’ve been meaning to try a new hair care regiment, but I just haven’t committed.
My hair has too much volume. But my Mom would really like this!

I’m jealous Krystle! They have smoothing, color care and a couple of other ranges in this line. Something for everyone I suppose!
