Another product from the past that's still perfect

Another product from the past that's still perfect

I’ve been feeling a bit nostalgic beauty-wise lately, and the most recent wave came over me while perusing the hair aisle at CVS. I was there to get shampoo for my son, when suddenly a spied Sebastian’s Potion 9 on the very end of the shelf at the wee top. I hadn’t thought about this styling product since it was a staple in my routine at least 15 years ago (possibly more)—and there it was begging to come home me. (I swear.)

First introduced in 1990, Potion 9 and I had a great run as this multipurpose styling treatment conditions and protects while adding softness and shine. It was as if no time had passed at all once I saw the first pump of divine orange elixir in the palm of my hand, and the results were exactly what I remembered (although my hair’s thickness and texture has changed a bit since we first met). Other than smooth strands, there’s no evidence that you actually used it you realize your hair looks freshly styled for days after you actually blew it out—and the fact that there’s no extra greasiness is obviously a major plus.

This impulse buy turned out to be further proof that’s it’s worth sticking with a product that works for you (or in this case, your hair), and that newer isn’t always better. What hair products do you keep going back to, even after taking an extended break?
