Good hair days with Ellips + {GIVEAWAY}
I love a Monday that starts with a giveaway!! Don’t you? So gals, you know I have a hate-hate relationship with my hair. My hair aside, I’m also always looking for products to nourish Addison’s very thick, frizzy, dehydrated hair. When I received a package from Ellips a few months ago, I was excited, but I figured…another hair product. It seems new, different, but probably going to be a novelty and I’ll forget about it after a few weeks. I swear I do this, with even the most high-end and fabulous hair products. I enjoy it, but I don’t feel like I HAVE TO use it. Boy was I wrong…. we’ve been enjoying the Ellips hair vitamin capsules so much! Addison is obsessed. I am obsessed. My mom is obsessed. I hand them out as samples to family members, though, as I start running low, I’m regretting my generosity! lol
What is the Ellips brand and products about?
Ellips Hair Treatments are natural hair oils and vitamins from Indonesia which are enriched with Argan oil to provide strength, vitality and nourishment to a range of hair types. The range includes five variants of the capsules to suit a wide variety of hair types; a leave-in conditioner Milkshake; Hair Masks which only take two minutes to work; an Ultra Treatment for ageing hair as well as a Cuticle Serum.
All products are cruelty-free and use gelatine-based biodegradable capsules to ensure that they remain environmentally friendly at all times.
Product range and pricing
There are 5 variants of the hair treatment capsules:
- Pink Hair Repair – Designed to provide intensive moisture to hair that has been damaged from excessive heat styling. Vitamin C and Jojoba Oil deliver rapid repair action to transform dry and damaged hair into smooth, shiny locks.
- Yellow Smooth & Silky – A light and nourishing treatment that is ideal to help treat fine hair without weighing it down. The treatment includes Aloe Vera to keep hair moisturised and protected from the sun.
- Orange Hair Vitality – Formulated to restore strength and vitality to hair that has become dry and brittle . The replenishing properties of Ginseng and Honey help prevent breakages and actively reinforce the hair structure.
- Purple Nutri Colour – A treatment infused with conditioning ingredients to help care for highlighted and coloured hair. Hair remains healthy, shiny and full of life through a unique combination of vitamins, amino acids and other active ingredients. These provide protection from the sun as well as other environmental aggressors that cause colour to fade over time.
- Silky Black – Specifically targeted to address the needs of very thick or dark hair. Shine is greatly enhanced and hair is made soft and manageable through the combined use of Candlenut Oil and Aloe Vera. This includes a natural form of sun protection for the hair.
The capsules are available in a 12 capsule pack (R89) or a 50 capsule jar (R333).
Note: You dispense the contents of the capsules and apply to wet hair. You do NOT drink the capsules 🙂
There are 3 variants of the hair masks:
- Yellow Smooth & Silky – The Yellow Hair Mask combines a Pro- Keratin complex and Aloe Vera Oil to keep hair strong and maintain a naturally smooth and silky texture.
- Silky Black – The Black Hair Mask is enriched with a Pro-Keratin Complex, Aloe Vera oil and Candlenut Oil to help healthy hair maintain a smooth and silky texture, whilst offering additional UV protection.
- Pink Hair Repair – The Pink Hair Mask offers rescue to hair that has been damaged from excessive heat styling through an ultra-moisturising boost of Jojoba Oil, which is then combined with the benefits of a Pro-Keratin complex to nourish, smooth and strengthen hair.
Hair masks retail for R132.
Other products in the range include:
- Leave-in Milkshake Conditioner – The ellips Milkshake leave-in conditioner contains both Milk and Wheat Protein, along with Pro-Vitamin B5, and offers a range of benefits to nourish and treat damaged hair. Suitable for use on children, it’s the ideal way to avoid tears in the bath or to use after swimming to make sure that hair is gently detangled and remains tangle-free! Retails for R132.
- Ultra Treatment – The ellips Ultra Treatment fights signs of hair ageing with a powerful array of ingredients including Everlasting Flower Oil, Green Tea Oil and Pro-Vitamin B5, A and E. This unique combination of oils provides dull, brittle and dry hair with a much needed dose of nutrition and ensures hair is transformed into healthy, manageable locks. Retails for R168.
- Cuticle Serum – The ellips Cuticle Serum is the perfect solution for hair that may be thin, fine and prone to dryness. Enriched with Pro-Vitamin B5, the lightweight formulation nourishes and protects hair, effectively coating strands right to the roots without weighing hair down. Retails for R63.
My thoughts
The hair treatment capsules are so fun and the colours are so vibrant! How could you NOT want to use them? I love the innovation of the packaging and the thought behind making these look like huge capsules. These capsules do not weigh the hair down at all. Not one bit. There is no heaviness, no greasiness…it honestly doesn’t look like you’ve put oil on your hair. The hair just looks nourished from within. Addison’s hair has been THRIVING since we’re using these capsules. I don’t even have to tell her to get them, she automatically puts it on after she washes her hair. My mom loves the Ultra Treatment. Again, a serum that doesn’t weight the hair down.
I love the Hair Mask, mostly because it’s a 2 minute mask, so I can use it in the shower and be done with it. I never have time for a 10 or even 5 minutes mask. Also, we’re trying to save water, so there’s really no time for long showers. This mask is really nourishing, quick to use and affordable.
All products are available online at www.ellipshair.co.za as well as Takealot.com.

I have such fine hair and gets oily very quickly, so that means my hair looks great only 2 days after i have it done – being working mom of 2 – I can only manage one hair session a week – then we go to the mom-bun for the rest of the week lol I would possibly try the Yellow Smooth & Silky – hopefully doesn’t make my hair too oily and thus last more than 2 days!
Dhesh
I have fine, frizzy hair but l would most love to try the leave in milkshake conditioner for my three year old daughter. She hates me brushing her hair. It’s a major issue every morning but she refuses to get a short cut as she doesn’t want to look like her brother.
Dionne
Firstly can I say…
Do not drink the capsules🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦♀️🤔.
And Interesting that one of the capsules can be used to fight the first signs of aging in hair. Didnt know this was possible.
My hair is dehydrated and also dry and brittle from some awful meds.
So i would love to try the pink hair repair capsules and the orange hair vitality capsules too.
