My Experience with the Monat Hair Products

About 6 months ago I had my first run-in with the Monat hair product line. I was at my best friend’s house for a get together. One of her friends from work arrived a little while later. Right when she walked in I noticed her hair, but I didn’t want to bring attention to myself by asking her about it.

Apparently I wasn’t the only one who noticed. About a half hour later, my best friend, who has no shame in bringing attention to herself, said “Dang girl! Your hair looks amazing!” Her friend then began telling her about the product line she uses called Monat. I listened to her and was impressed. However, the party ended, and days went by. I then forgot all about it.

It wasn’t until a couple months later that I was re-introduced. My sister-in-law, who had been suffering from postpartum hair loss, posted on Facebook before and after photos of her time with Monat. I couldn’t believe it when she said that it was the same Monat product line that the other girl with amazing hair was talking about. Having been self-conscious about my hair for years for various reasons (dry, dull, never-ending split ends), I decided it was time to make a change. That was when I started my research. After reading countless Monat reviews, I decided to try it out for myself.

One wash. One simple wash with Monat, and I was hooked. I couldn’t believe the difference! For this particular wash I used Renew shampoo, Revitalize conditioner, and Rejuvabeads. My sister took the before and after of me, and I think the pictures speak for themselves! I would never have left the house without at least straightening my hair before. Now, I feel confident going out in public without doing anything extra to my hair. That excites me, because I don’t have to damage my hair more with heat!

I have now been using the hair products for around 4 months and here are some things that I have noticed about my hair:

My hair is softer and shinier than ever
I don’t have to spend an obnoxious amount of time trying to de-tangle my hair after a shower
My hair is thicker and has way more volume
I don’t shed like crazy anymore and have less split ends
My hair is less frizzy!
It smells AMAZING
The last bonus, which is extremely important to me, is that it is cruelty free and doesn’t use a bunch of harsh chemicals! Oh, and it’s also made in the USA!

Although I couldn’t put it in my personal Monat review, since I am not yet a mama, but I feel the need to tell women about the reasoning behind new moms going crazy over Monat! Two words: Capixyl and Procataline. One thing that a lot of new moms don’t know, is that postpartum hair loss is incredibly common. Well, these two ingredients fight back! Without going full science nerd on you all, Capixyl is a key ingredient in Monat products. It works by cutting down scalp inflammation. By doing this, it stimulates natural hair growth. It also thickens and strengthens your hair. Procataline, another key ingredient, fights premature hair thinning. Like capixyl, it boosts hair growth. It also protects color and shine. The picture below is my sister-in-law’s before and after of only 16 days on Monat!

The bonus part is, men can benefit too! Ever looked at your man and noticed that his hairline has receded a little (or a lot)? Or maybe his hair is thinning out more and more everyday? Men all over the country have been trying Monat to grow their hair back and it’s working.

That’s not all that men are loving about Monat. They also have a treatment system dedicated entirely to them (or so they think!). It’s called the Monat Black system, and it’s as sexy as it sounds. Now, men might think this is all for them, but not if I have a say in it! Over the past few months of testing out these products, I’ve learned a few tricks of the trade, and I’ve fallen in love with the Black system. Personally, I LOVE to use the men’s aftershave as a moisturizer AND as a makeup primer! The best part is I get to pretend I’m buying it for my boyfriend when in reality it’s for me! Total win, win!

Since I’m almost done ranting about shampoo and conditioner, I HAVE to throw in that there is an adorable jr line! This line is complete with shampoo, conditioner, and detangler that is specifically formulated for the finer and fragile hair that kiddos have. This line is safe and gentle for the mini’s in your life with no harmful colors, fragrances, or chemicals!

And finally, on to the other, yet just as fun, products! Monat has products for just about anybody… I’ll list my favorite goodies and tell ya’ll exactly why I love them so much!

1) Rejuvabeads
As I said in the beginning, I had HORRIBLE split ends. For me, this stuff basically eliminates the split ends!

2) Rejuvenique
I love this oil for two reasons, it moisturizes my scalp AND face! I’ve always had dry skin and scalp, so this stuff is a double whammy for me!

3) Eye Wonder Lash and Brow Enhancing Serum
Plain and simple, it makes my lashes look AMAZING! They’re longer and shinier without the makeup!

4) Blow Out Cream
I use this before styling my hair and it makes my hair silky and shiny!

5) The Champ dry shampoo
Dry shampoo… It’s the best! Need I say more?

Those being my favorite, I still LOVE the other products. You’ll just have to check them out for yourself! Like the hairspray… to die for! Finally, a hairspray that doesn’t leave a product-feel to my hair!

Ok so you’ve read my testimonials on the product-line. There are hundreds of reviews that say similar things as what you’ve just read.

My biggest complaint? I don’t really have any major complaints about Monat, but if I had to choose one it would be… The price. Hands down. What else would there be to complain about the amazing product line?

However, the best part is that these products are the real deal. So yeah, it’s pricier than what you might be used to, but you buy it once and it lasts so long! You don’t need a huge glob of conditioner like the $5 store-bought brand. I bought my shampoo and conditioner four months ago and it’s still not gone!

What does Monat do for your hair? I think the results speak for themselves…

Monat Before and After Results

So, does Monat really work?

Short answer: YES!

Is Monat a good product?

Again: YES! (IMO)

Now that you know all you need to know to get started, what are you waiting for?! Your hair will thank you in the long run!

Note: This is a 100% unbiased Monat review! I am not a market partner or representative, not involved with the company or employed by them, and don’t personally sell it in any other way. I’m simply a VERY happy customer that recommends them, so I wanted to share my results with the world. However, I have since decided to allow my sister in law to “take over” this post (for lack of a better phrase) since she was the one who officially got me started on using Monat. You can find her on Instagram here. And if you are wanting to buy monat hair products, please use this link.

Updates

Update March 2018: It has now been right around a year since I first started using Monat, and 8 months since I originally wrote this post. I’ve since seen some bad monat reviews out there that are negative, but that simply is not my personal experience with them or the experiences of my family and friends. Everyone I personally know who uses the monat hair products love them and have nothing but great things to say. As with any product or service, I’m sure there are some people who haven’t had positive experiences with them, but in my opinion the Monat shampoo and other products are still the best things that have ever happened to my hair!

Update May 2018: Everything posted above is my 100% honest and unbiased review of Monat. I do not sell it and never have. I do recommend it all the time and will continue to do so, but I am not a market partner, and have no intentions to become one. I don’t know why everyone thinks my post above has strings attached, but I assure you, it doesn’t! It is real, honest, legit, unbiased, and I gain nothing from taking the time to write it. Believe me or not, I truly don’t care! Haters always try to justify their negativity, but I’m really not wasting my time on that anymore. This is MY monat review and it is what it is!

Update July 2020: It has been a little over 2 years since my last update. So, I wanted to jump in here real quick to let you know that I’m still using Monat and still loving it! Their hair products are undoubtedly the best – in my opinion – and the results are amazing. If you are on the fence about it, I highly recommend you go for it. My review has not changed — it is still 100% positive!

Update April 2021: Another 9 months has already flown by since my last update. Where does the time go?! Really not much new to report with my monat experience. I’m still using them with amazing results. Lots of new products have come out since my original post and many have become quite popular. I mostly stick to a few basics though I’ve tried pretty much all of their products at this point and liked the vast majority of them.

Update January 2022: Still loving Monat. My positive review and full recommendation has not changed a bit. Even more new products that are great – although, as I said in my last update, I tend to stick with the items that I have always used & have served me well (yes, I’m boring).

Weight Loss Is Hard Except With This Dirty Little Secret.

Beauty , Blog , CoolSculpting , Reviews

Before I share with you this dirty little secret to losing 100lbs in 8 months.

I want you to know, shortcuts are solutions that are more efficient. This turned my life around.

I have to tell you this is a little "out-there" solution one of my friends clued me in on....

According to some, it's a bit weird and sounds like "cheating" because it's not the normal messaging the skinny celebrity filled mass media world pushes down our throats.. The results speak for themselves. I'm my transformation is proof.

What I had to do to get to my ideal body weight and shape, I cut some corners, or so I thought. When in reality, it was the best and only path to my success and preventing me from worse health problems down the road.

Why take the long route that ends in so many dead end failures when you can shortcut it and speed up your energy and metabolism?

I didn't just do the normal diet and exercise because it didn't work for me for decades. Each new years I would set a goal and break it within weeks.

I truly didn't have the energy to exercise. I was always hungry and even after trying all the meal replacement program out there, I was still left with this aching hunger in my whole body.

I was tired, lonely, and full of self hatred. I couldn't stand looking at myself in the mirror any longer. I wasn't sexy. I wasn't attractive and worst of all I fell back into my self sabotaging behavior of eating my sorrows away. I was miserable.

The breakthrough that came for me wasn't from liposuction... wasn't from coolsculpting because that would only work for fit people. Plus, it wouldn't solve my energy issues and hunger.

I was hungry for chocolate, bubbly soda pop, and antyhign sweet, salty, and full of fat... but not that good keto fat that's all the rage right now.

My body couldn't get into the "keto" that everyone was raging about. It just wanted sugar and carbs.

The solution came from my breakdown moment. It came the night I was eating double stuffed Oreo's and a galon of milk in bed. Crumbs were everywhere, I was 3/4 a package down and half a gallon of milk away from finishing when my friend Elizabeth, who moved to Germany, called.

She used to be fat. Use to be almost as miserable as I was.

But she changed. And during her process she posted pictures of her transformation and her breakthrough online in half naked dresses and skimpy swimsuits..

Honestly, it made me sick. Made me mad.

Why could she do it but not me? I stopped following her on instagram., and "Defriended" her on facebook. Honestly, I was uber jealous.

This was the night she found out we were no longer friends. She called me upset because we weren't friends online.

"Took you long enough", I said.. full of self pity.

She had no idea that we weren't friends until she wanted to send me a message. The message that would save my life.

She said she was sad when she found out were weren't friend... and it felt good to me. I was wanted and I knew it and she knew it. It feels good to be wanted.

She asked me if I was upset because of her transformation and I told her yes and how she strutted her shit online, made me sick. Her fat went to her ego and I coldn't take it.

She said, you're jealous.

I tried to cover up.

But we both knew I was jelly.

Then she said, "you want to know my dirty little secret?"

"Your what?!?!? ", I gleamed.

The secret to jump starting my weight loss came from an at home self-administered injection of vitamins and nutrients. I would shoot a good for you body enhancement solution into my fat, full of vitamins and a little thing call hcg.

"What the fuck, you're on drugs?" I said.

"No, listen here. My doctor recommended it to me. But there stuff was so expensive and was the exact same thing as what I'm going to send you. You see, this stuff boosts energy, so you can work out. This is what you want. It stops your hunger, so you don't over eat, makes dieting easier right? It helped me get into keto so my body ate the fat and I was able to 4x my weight loss and increase my vitality."

With a snarky attitude, "I knew it! You cheated!!!

"Well if you want to call it that, sure, but who did I cheat? No one. I cheated myself for not getting my self the help I needed sooner. I cheated myself by not helping myself, when I needed it the most. The support my body wanted and needed couldn't come through my stomach that was cheating my soul. I did what it took to get results my spirit needed.

In the end you are only cheating yourself by staying up till 3:00am smashing your face with double stuffed oreos and think you are helping yourself by drinking skim milk. Tomorrow you'll wake up feeling bad about yourself and repeat the vicious cycles, unless you do something about it. Do what you haven't done in the past because that's getting you no where."

Then she paused...

I knew she was right. I was on this circle of destruction for decades. Trying the same diet and exercise bullshit.

"Want some help?" she asked.

I hesitated... then buckled.

"YES! Please!"

"Alrighty". she said," I'm going to send you a link to my source. You can buy online. You don't need a prescription and it's 50% less than the price my doctor prescribed it at. I did all the research and they source the same ingredients as my doctors and everything is vetted and certified for purity.

Follow the instructions, don't use them everyday. You'll have more energy than you know what to do with.

"Follow the instructions", she said, "it's easy."

I asked, "Does it hurt?"

She said, "No, I barely even felt it. It goes right under the skin and feels just like insulin shot.."

This sparked a nerve because my doctor was telling me the week before, I would need to be on insulin soon, if I couldn't get my blood sugar levels stable. For me the small injections would come from either direction. To boost my weight loss or to sustain my blod sugar level.

"Alrighty, I said, "lets do it!"

She sent me the link here for hcg and vitmain injections.

Take the 84 day supply and if you don't like it you can return the unused portion. But the savings is worth it and you can always spread out the usage if you want. I started with full dosage and then slowly backed down after my body got intot he groove. If you want to share it with a friend to cut down on the cost you can and it will save you a ton of money compared to the doctors, even after insurance.

So, I paid $750 for my kit and 3 months later I lost about 50lbs had more energy than ever before. Been on 8 dates and loving life. I'm not perfect, still eat chocolate here and there but I have control over my cravings, don't need insulin and have more confidence than ever. Exercise is fun now and I don't feel out of place at the gym.

Then last week, I got a job promotion. They noticed my life transformation and wanted a leader who could take control and get results. This "dirty little secret" saved my life.

So, I wanted to reveal it to others who struggle just like I did.

You don't have to go at this alone. You don't have to suffer like I did, for decades. Science has figured out how to solve the fat loss and energy problem. It's about giving your body what it needs.

It comes in a little injector that you take twice a week and it will make you come alive. Starving yourself isn't the answer. Either is liposuction because that wont solve your energy problems or appetite. Natural vitamins directly to the source of your life bypassing the stomach is the cure.

Once you try it, you wont look back except at the pictures that will remind you, you're worth it. You're worth every bit of it. Your worth the energy. You're worth the confidence. You're worth the new self love.

And so I wanted to give you an extra little gift to make it even more worth it.

If you hurry and act now, you can get the same HCG and vitmain mix that I used and get it for $599.

The 84 days supply is normally $750 but if you get it now, you will save $150.

My little tip, use that money to buy yourself a new dress a couple sizes smaller than you. Watch the pounds come off and use the dress to motivate you. It's your "WHY" treasure piece you hang in front of your bed.

Here's the link to save over $150 now and get into that sexy dress!.

If you want to try out the vitamin HCG mix, with a less expensive cost, you can get a 1 month cupply, do that too but I recommend that you commit like I did and stack up. You don't want to forget to buy another month supply and be without.

You can do this! I believe in you and with a little help, you can breakthrough you know is possible and reach your goals.

I lost 100lbs in 10 months and so can you.

Love you friends,
