Davines is an international, family-owned beauty line with a root in sustainability. It was founded in Italy and began as a research laboratory (which explains their adorable and reusable packaging) and is now in renowned hair salons all over the world, like
salon blonde!
More Inside is a new styling line from
Davines that is more than just a quality hair product, but a form of creative expression. Each item is packaged with unique paper that is inspired from Italian tile, paintings, and architecture. Open up your new product, just like a gift, and there's more inside! Find directions, inspirational quotes, and an adorable rendering of someone from
Davines. This line is fool-proof, the medium hairspray is
literally called "
This is a Medium Hairspray".




Salon Blonde (1643 W. North Ave.) in Wicker Park is a globally conscious beauty boutique that is a perfect home for
Davines. Richard took care of Jess's layers and straightened her hair to a sleek look, while Bridget gave Jill wavy, blow-dryed locks.
Davines sent us home with a variety of products from
More Inside and we couldn't wait to try them all!
This is a Medium Hairspray -
Pro: The hold is great, and still keeps your hair touchable.
Con: It sprays more of a wet mist and the bottle clogs easily.
This is an Invisible Serum -
Pro: Does exactly what it's supposed to do! Makes your hair soft and gives it a little shine. It's also paraben-free!
Con: Has a bit of a product-feel to it after it's on.
This is a Sea Salt Spray -
Pro: Gives great texture, body, and waves. You can actually see your hair changing when you spray this on!
Con: It can be a bit too much for oily hair, so if you have this issue, spray lightly.
Love Smoothing Shampoo and
Conditioner -
Pro: Keeps your hair smooth and frizz-free, but isn't too heavy for those with oily hair, and has actually helped Jill's hair! You can also reuse the cute containers.
Con: Contains parabens.
