    Beautiful Hair – Pure and Simple way!

    In my previous blog, I had shared my experience of “Kerastase” which although is a blessing for my hair but is not a very regular cost-effective option. Hence, I decided to venture into OGX, a brand that uses exotic ingredients and they approach each hair type with a specific solution.
