Our Staff Shares Insider Tips On Using Virtue
We asked our team to share their favorite products, but where’s the fun in hearing about their must-haves without the insider tips and tricks on how they use them?
Shampoo & Conditioner:
“I emulsify the shampoo in my hands with water before applying on my scalp and hair. When I use the conditioner, I like to use from mid-shaft to ends, staying away from my roots. This way I get the maximum volume in my hair, but I can still target the damage spots”
-Adir, Creative Director
“Alternate depending on my style that day. If I’m going sleek and shiny, I use Smooth. If I’m curling or doing a lot of heat styling, I use Recovery. If I’m wearing my hair more natural or blown out, I use Full.”
-Andrea, Social Media
Unfrizz Cream:
“Mixing the Unfrizz Cream with the Split End Serum is an amazing weekly leave-in treatment, especially on air-dried hair. I had big, beachy waves with zero effort!”
-Christianna, Customer Care
“This is surprisingly useful for adding texture to dry hair. I have fine hair that I like to style in messy waves, so sometimes I use the Unfrizz Cream to provide more grip and grit to hold my tousled look in place.”
-Jackie, Digital Marketing
Split End Serum:
“Split End Serum is a twice a day, every day essential! On wet hair, I apply before I blow dry and then add a little more on my ends (after dry) before I create waves with my big barrel curling iron. On dry hair, I use every morning and night before bed. It dries into your strands which is amazing because it doesn’t leave me with greasy strands. It’s magical!”
-Lexi, Community Management / Social Media
6-in-1 Styler:
“This is my go-to for restyling second or third day hair. Put it on mid-shaft to ends and brush it through, then style as usual (or don’t style at all - if I don’t have time, I let the 6-in-1 work its magic!). It smoothes my locks, adds shine, and refreshes my ends so they don’t look dried out. It also makes my hair smell great!”
-Jackie, Digital Marketing
“For body and an effortless look: Use 6-in-1 Styler on damp hair - all over - and let air dry. Add the Whip on the ends of hair and then run a blow dryer over for a couple of seconds.” -
Aaron, Sales
Volumizing Whip:
“To get my best hair, I apply the Whip to very wet hair with the Split End Serum and squish it into my curls. I then use a t-shirt to scrunch my curls some more and remove excess water and product (if there is any). It makes my curls look more defined and bouncier than ever before.”
-Erin, Scientist
“I love this on dry hair to refresh curls, but I have to use it sparingly so it doesn’t stretch out the curls too much”
-Andrea, Social Media
Shaping Spray:
“This has really given me the best second-day hair. For a quick lift, I spray the Finale Shaping Spray through the ‘under’ layers of my hair, giving it a little oomph. It doesn’t add weight, but definitely adds lift”
-Debby, Product Development
