If you’ve ever tied your hair back and grimaced at what looks more like a child’s ponytail than a full, adult one, then you're in my boat. That's been my reality for longer than I care to admit. And the clumps of hair left on my brush after each shower? Disappointing, sad, and downright annoying.
Like many, I’ve been down the road of miracle cures and quick fixes, each time ending with the same letdown. So, when I stumbled upon Kitsch's Hair Growth Rice Water Shampoo & Conditioner Bundle, you bet I was skeptical. Another product claiming to be the savior for my thinning hair? Please, I’ve heard that one before.🙄
But something was different this time. Maybe it was the unique approach of using rice water, known for its hair-strengthening properties, or maybe I was just tired of the same old failures. Either way, I decided to give it a shot, fully prepared to add it to my graveyard of hair care products.
Here’s how it went:
Initial thoughts…fewer hairs in the drain

The first few washes didn’t bring fireworks, but I noticed less hair left behind in the shower. My ponytail didn’t transform overnight, but there was a noticeable difference in the amount of hair on my brush.
It wasn’t magic; it was just... change.
I clung to the TRI-K Rice Tein NPNF study results, which promised a 20% increase in hair volume after five washes. I wasn’t there yet, but for the first time in a long time, I was actually excited to continue using a hair care product.
I’m gradually getting my volume back!

After just a few weeks, I started to see noticeable improvement in not only the fullness of my ponytails, but the overall look of my hair. My locks were shinier, healthier, and downright bouncy.
The skepticism? Consider it gone. Kitsch’s Hair Growth Rice Water Shampoo & Conditioner Bundle transformed not just my hair but my entire outlook on hair care. And for $38.00 (or $32.50 with a subscription), it’s totally worth it.
Plastic-free and good for the planet

Just as I was getting accustomed to the new routine, I realized the impact went beyond just my hair. These bars were a far cry from the plastic-bottled products that filled my bathroom.
Free from parabens, phthalates, silicones, sulfates, and artificial fragrances, Kitsch’s shampoo and conditioner bars resonated with my mission to reduce waste and avoid harmful chemicals.
It made me happy to realize that by switching to Kitsch, I was contributing to a bigger cause, supporting 4ocean in their efforts to clean our oceans, one shampoo bar at a time. It felt good knowing that my choice was not only helping my hair but also making a small dent in the global plastic crisis.
Bye bye, shampoo bottles. Hello, fuller hair! 👋
To those who are as fed up as I was, caught between skepticism and hope, I say this: Yes, the journey is frustrating. Yes, the solutions seem endless and often disappointing. But sometimes, just sometimes, something like Kitsch comes along and makes you believe in change (and voluminous hair!) again.
And who knows? We might just find ourselves flipping our fuller, luscious locks in the mirror once again, no magnifying glass needed, in a few weeks!
