My Mum bought me these after I gave her my deluxe samples I received in the mail, as I turned away from Pantene in my teen years as I felt as it dried my hair out completely and lathered my hair and stripped the natural oils out. Anyway, my Mum was so impressed with them, she bought the full size for me to give a try.
First of all, I love the smell of it, a fresh perfumed but rich scent that stays a few days after washing my hair, which I like.
The packaging is simple enough but feels elegant, with some gold detailing on it, nice click close lid the only thing I feel is that the actual spout of it and the silky thin formula makes it when your tipping it out, that you get a lot more product than you bargained for, and a small amount goes a long way, so its a bit of a waste.
The actual formula is very silky and lathers quite a bit, so you only need a small amount to cover your scalp, I tend massage my head with extended fingers for a few seconds which creates a small foam then I rinse out thoroughly.
I'm left with my hair with loads of body, doesnt feel flat or weighed down like it used to with Pantenes old formula, I tend to leave my hair another 4 or 5 days before it needs to be washed again.
I'm really impressed with it. I will repurchase again.
I received a deluxe sample of this in the mail, and I'm going to get straight to the point. I hate it.
My first use went swimmingly, the shampoo lathered like I remembered, and the smell was the same. I had missed Pantene, and since they switched up their formula I was excited to use it. The excitement ended the next morning when I woke up with a massive rats tail dreadlock, which was my entire freakin' pony tail! Curse the hair gods! I thought, not thinking it was the shampoo. I kept using it, relishing in that familiar smell.
It wasn't until my hair started to go really dry and frizzy, and literally unbrushable, did I realize it was the shampoo. I was pulling my hair out when I brushed because everything had knotted together. I had stopped using products like argan oil in my damp hair, and this shampoo brought out the worst in my hair. Unbelievable. I have used it for a solid week with no results but bad. I won't be purchasing a full sized bottle of this overpriced cr*p, not with these results.
