Watermelon Shampoo High

This shampoo is the tits. It smells utterly delicious, it leaves my hair feeling really clean (but not that gross kind of squeaky clean), and it's cruelty-free - yes, yes and yes please. I don't think it really added much volume to my hair, but it certainly didn't weigh it down at all and it felt great after a wash. Would 100% re-purchase.

Tips: Definitely pair with the conditioner and mask for maximum watermelon goodness!

Fruity Check! - Shampoos - Check!

Like it's conditioner counterpart this Garnier line has been designed to look ridiculously cute! The scent is so yummy that you just want to eat it.

As someone with fine hair, it can be hard to find a shampoo that doesn't leave my hair flat and limp at the end of the day. I was pleasantly surprised at how well my hair lasted during the day after using the shampoo and I finally had volume YAY!

I will 100% be buying this again and happily recommend to anyone with fine hair.

Watermelon Shampoo

Let's start with the pro's of this product: - The fragrance: Oh. My. Gosh. Think summer fruit cocktails at a bbq with friends. This fragrance is DIVINE, and smells almost good enough to drink (please refrain from doing this, but it is THAT good!). It's 96% Vegan and no 'nasties' which is always a good thing, especially when it comes to my precious mane. The promise of more volume came through, although there was a catch, see the not so great stuff paragraph below. You have to always give a product props when it delivers on its marketing promises. Value for money: I loved how little I needed of this product to get a good lather going and it made my hair feel squeaky clean. A little really does go a long way and one of these 350ml bottles would actually last me for weeks. Now for the not so great stuff: although this product delivered on its 'more volume' promise, unfortunately it came at the expense of softness and shine. By the end of the trial period my hair was noticeably 'rougher' and a lot less shiny than normal. I was also struggling to get a wide tooth comb through my hair when it was wet after washing with this product. Unfortunately the divine smell and other pros of this product don't outweigh the not so great stuff, which was so disappointing as I would have gladly switched my normal haircare regime for these products - which is the highest praise I can give any product.

gives a good lift..

this smells really good, as soon as i lathered it in my hair i felt an instant lift, creating some body to my very fine limp hair. It cleans well too, my hair feels soft and is remarkably less oily at the roots at the end of the day.

Tips: Use with the hair food conditioner and the mask for extra softness.

Garnier Shampoo

As expected, the product has a lovely fruity watermelon fragrance. I didn't think it was overpowering, quite subtle really. I love when shampoos are fun colours and with a peachy pink colour, this product definitely hits the mark.

The shampoo came out of the bottle easily, lathered up nicely and rinsed off quickly enough. While I didn't feel like it gave my hair a particularly thorough cleaning, it did a pretty good job and left my hair feeling nice and smooth. I would maybe call it a gentle clean. I also didn't feel like it gave my hair a bigger boost of volume than other shampoos, even though my fine hair is exactly the hair type this shampoo is targeted to.

I thought that the shampoo containing sulfate might be a problem as I have trouble with a dry scalp, but it was great.

Overall, it performed pretty well and I wouldn't be against using it again. But while I do like the shampoo, I don't really think the high price is justified. I didn't feel like it did anything special that I can't get from cheaper products. I would only consider getting it again if it was on sale.

Watermelon bliss for fine hair

I like the fact that this is a 'green' product with recyclable packaging. The bottle looks cute - reminds me of a smoothie bottle, very pretty. I also love the fact that Garnier is cruelty free. The shampoo does not contain silicone, but unfortunately it does contain sulfates - something I usually steer clear of because I have coloured hair. This shampoo smells like summer. I don't usually like the smell of watermelon very much, so I would not have picked it for the smell but I actually enjoy the fresh smell. The shampoo is lightweight and perfect for fine hair. It doesn't lather much but does a good job of cleaning the hair. I didn't experience any problems such as scalp irritation. It is well priced and if it wasn't for the fact that it contains sulfates, I would have happily bought this again. Yes, I would recommend to a friend with fine hair.

Tips: Try it if you have fine hair but if your hair is colour- or keratin treated, be aware that it contains sulfates.

So much volume!

Thanks BR for chucking me on this trial! I have fine/thin hair that pretty much has nothing to it,its quite limp. Anytime a product exclaims volume I'm always down to trying it out. But my hair also gets oily on top so it's quite a balancing act trying to find the perfect product.

I am loving Garnier lately, this product is a new vegan formula with 96% natural origin, packaging is made with 50% recycled plastic and is 100% recyclable. This product claims: cleanse, volume and no weigh down. Tick tick tick.

I only needed to use a small amount in my palm to get a nice lather up and feel all of the above. My hair felt extremely cleansed, the product felt really lightweight and after my shower and blow drying my hair had a lot of volume. I also really love the scent, it's watermelon scent but I didn't find it overpowering at all and my hair smelt really nice too.

I will definitely keep using this product and reach for it again off the supermarket shelf!

Tips: I have shoulder length hair and a small amount was all that was needed, I feel a bit more might be useful if you have longer hair.

Absolutely love this shampoo!

First of all thanks BR for selecting me for this trial of the shampoo, conditioner and hair food mask. (See each item for individual reviews). Lets start with the shampoo - this shampoo is fabulous. Packaging awesome very colorful loved shape of shampoo bottle and really compact and easy to handle although flip top lid was a bit hard to open. Love smell of shampoo which lathered really well and only needed small amount, thickish clear gel consistency - i wash my hair twice. Hair was very soft and smooth once dried and did look really good and noticed my highlites were more prominent which was awesome. My hair smelt great too. Greatest thing was it didn't weigh my hair down so its done what it said it would. I trialled this shampoo with the conditioner and the hair food mask. I loved the shampoo so much i bought 2 more bottles on special at Countdown yesterday- there was 1 bottle left so its been popular judging by the other shampoos in the range which were still on shelf. Its also a great price!

Tips: Just buy it and see for yourself!

Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon Shampoo

I received this product on Monday so have only managed to use it twice but I have liked the results, The shampoo is in a nice sized container and it is easy to get the product out of the container. It lathered nicely and washed out easily my hair seemed clean and certainly felt there was no heaviness about it. I did not notice any significance in volume but maybe i have to use it longer .

Tips: My hair is short so I needed only a small amount to create a good lather

Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon Shampoo

The packaging for this product is fairly enticing. Looks like fresh fruit juice. The bottle is a nice shape and size so doesn’t take up too much space in the family bathroom. The cap is easily opened and the smell of the product is just like fresh watermelon but not too sweet or overpowering. Having short hair, I used about a 50c size squeeze of shampoo and found this adequate to achieve a lather. The product claims to have a ‘light foam’ and I would agree with this statement. I found the product rinsed out easily, which is handy with our current limited water supply. I liked the light fragrance that my hair retained once dry. My fine hair combed out well while wet and dried with a bit of extra ‘bounce’. The extra volume was still there the following morning which I was impressed with. I had recently had my fine hair styled at the hairdresser but it only lasted a couple of days before it went back to looking loosely hung and flat. After using this shampoo my hair looked like it had been styled daily by the hairdresser with extra volume and I feel it looked shinier and more healthy. I used this product in conjunction with the Garnier Fructis Watermelon Hair Food used as a conditioner after shampooing or a leave-in product on dry hair the following morning. Both methods achieved great results. My hair looked full and shiny with plenty of volume without using other styling products and felt clean and soft for up to three days after each application. I care about the environment and was pleased to see the product is a vegan formula and 96% biodegradable. Great to see the bottle is made from 50% recycled plastic and is 100% recyclable. I will definitely be using and recommending this product in the future.

Tips: If you have dull, flat or lifeless fine hair, put this product on your shopping list !!!
