For anyone who suffers from unruly hair like myself, then the professional L’Oreal Steampod 2.0 is the hairstyling tool that you must try! Take a look at what a fantastic job this Steampod 2.0 has done to my head of hair the results speak for themselves, we even have a video demonstrating the styling tool in action.
I have extremely unruly, thick, frizzy hair and it really is the bane of one’s life! I haven’t been blessed with the best hair in life, the texture is very dry and course and this hasn’t helped with colouring my hair over the years, but I don’t fancy turning grey just yet!
Why the Steampod 2.0 helps me with styling
I have one of those hair types that is a nightmare to style and keep under control. It is neither straight nor curly just somewhere in between in the nightmare zone!
I have tried various lotions and potions over the years to attempt to calm and condition my tresses, yet never found anything to make it resemble actual hair.
When I was asked to try the new L’Oreal Professionnel Steampod 2.0 I was excited but also a little apprehensive, after all, I had purchased and tried out practically every hairstyling tool on the market from straighteners, styling brushes to curlers and crimpers.
I didn’t want to get too excited that Steampod 2.0 would be the hairstyling tool to finally work and stop my search for the ‘Miracle hair tool’.

Using the Steampod 2.0
Using the Steampod 2.0 couldn’t be easier, you simply fill the pod with water, switch on, choose your desired temperature and wait a few minutes for the steam to start.
Before I used the Steampod, I prepped my hair whilst wet with the Steampod Replenishing smoothing cream. A Pro-Keratin enriched smoothing cream that has been specifically designed and formulated to be activated by the Steampod for an anti-frizz effect that lasts for up to three days. I was then ready to create sleek, smooth hair in the same way as you would use a hair straighter.
As you can see from the picture this is the before picture! I had already washed and blow-dried my hair and this the horrendous result.
I divided my hair into sections as I would before using any styling tool then got set to work running the Steampod plates down sections of my hair. Even on my first attempt, I found using the Steampod simple and stress-free, I even managed to straighten my hair in half the time I normally would when using a GHD hair straightener.
This picture shows one-half of my hair straightened with the L’oreal Steampod 2.0, I am sure you can clearly see the difference.
I completed the look using a small amount of Steampod Protective Smoothing Serum. The Steampod Serum works by helping to resurface and re-seal the cuticles of the hair fibre for a mirror-like shine. It is enriched with oils of Avocado and Apricot and smells gorgeous.
I could not hide how excited I was with the results, I had never had hair that felt so smooth and actually like hair and not a mass of frizz! The real test of time would be how long my hair stayed looking this good and I am pleased to report that after 3 days my hair still remained smooth and straight without the need of using any hair styling tool.
This is truly something I have never experienced before and I will not be switching back. It has given me a new confidence now my hair looks this good and I will never feel ashamed of my hair again.
I tried the Steampod 2.0 out on a family member with lovely thick, healthy, wavy hair that had never been coloured and here are the results.
Take a look at my video showing the Steampod 2.0 in action on extremely thick, healthy, wavy hair. See the results right before your eyes. This would make a perfect gift for all hair types.

This sounds like a fab product. I love l’oreal’s hair range so this would be a fab item to have your hair looks lovely.
IT LOOKS FAB! i ACTUALLY HAVE DEAD STRAIGHT HAIR SO THIS WOULD NOT WORK OUT FOR ME AS IF IT WAS STRAIGHTER I THINK IT WOULD LOOK A BIT SILLY. SO GREAT WHEN A PRODUCT ACTUALLY GIVES YOU RESULTS THAT YOU WANT. X
i havent brought an hair styler in years, this looks amazing! great review!
tHIS IS AMAZING!! Sounds like a really great product!!! i get such frizzy hair it’s not even funny. One whiff of humidity and I need braids I swear! This sounds really cool. xxx #love2blog
What is amazing about this is I can go out in the rain and it still looks good. My hair feels soft and well like hair! It really is the best thing I have ever tried.
this proDuct looks amazing. I love the shine it gives to your hair. You look stunning. And it is obviously really easy to use which is hugely important to me. I really can’t be bothered faffing around with tools that are complicated and normally give me second degree burns. What a fab styling tool. Hugs Mrs H xxxx
I can never be bothered with my hair taking ages and tryng new styles. This styler just keeps me looking human and is so easy and takes far less time than GHD’s do and it lasts longer too.
Wow, what a difference! I have really wild long hair very similar to yours so this would be perfect. This has reminded me to book a hair dressers appointment too!
I need a hairdressers appointment too. I keep going on and on but this really has transformed my hair and I could not be without one now.
Sounds like such an amazing product. I may need to get some for myself, my hair is like a bush when I wake in the morning! #Love2Blog
I had a before picture that was so bad I could not even bring myself to let people see it. I have always had wild, course hair and at last I have found a tool to tame it, it actually feels too good to be true!
Wow this looks brilliant. The difference in the before and after photos is amazing x
This looks fab, did the products make your hair greasy?
No not at first. I do have to wash it more often, I am very bad and tend to leave my hair unwashed and use dry shampoo as I just hate washing and drying my hair I just never get the time! I could not recommend anything more, saying that I don’t think It would be as good for people with thin, fine hair as it makes your hair look like so much weight has been removed from it.
Oh wow your hair looks gorgeous so sleek and shiny love it! xx
This looks amazing. I have heard about the steampod but the results are fantastic. Your hair looks so shiny. x
Thanks, I had never heard of Steam Pod before my hairdresser recommended it but I did think it was a salon only tool.Merry Christmas
WOW! What a fab product — Nice to see something that actually looks like it works! Your hair looks fantastic 🙂
I know, normally products I try are ok but not as amazing as this!
Oh my gosh, that Looks amazing! I have super thick hair so always looking for someThing that caN tame the mop! SO pretty ^_^ x
I could not believe the results either, my GHD’s will not get a look in now! Expensive but worth it if they can tame my horrible hair!
This looks amazing
