Yummy Aloe Vera Fragrance

This combination of Shampoo and Conditioner is a winning duo. Absolutely love this fragrance and using it to wash and condition my hair. It's a subtle yet clean and fresh smell that evokes good feelings when you use it. I look forward to hair washing day with anticipation.

The Shampoo has a great lather leaving hair clean and fragrant. Gently cleanses any styling products without stripping the hair or feeling tight on scalp. The Conditioner is light but very hydrating, smoothing down flyaways and keeping it weightless so you still have good volume and body. Gentle on scalps, No itching or flaking.

Easy to buy online or from your local supermarket vendor, it's affordable for the whole family to use. Good packaging with a flip top lid that easily opens.

I will definitely use this again and keen to explore other products in the range. A good bonus that animals are not harmed in its production.

Tips: Wet hair and apply a small amount of shampoo about $2 coin amount. Apply to the roots through to the lengths for a good lather. Rinse and repeat for extra clean or very greasy hair.

Wring out excess water to apply Conditioner. Apply a small amount- $2 coin size is sufficient as well. Work through from roots to the end lengths and leave on for at least a minute. Rinse til all residue is removed. Squeeze out excess water and towel dry. Style as usual. Viola - beautiful smelling clean and conditioned hair with good volume and shine.

Wow so natural

I was pleasantly surprised with this combo, the packaging was neat! Love the milk bottle look. Smells lovely - the whole family enjoyed using it.

Works best together using both the shampoo and conditioner, leaving my hair feeling silky and smooth - even my dry frizzy prone hair felt smooth and soft once my hair had dried, and the straightners glided through effortlesly. Love that its vegan, and 'natural'.

Cant complain, bit i do prefer using my current brand shampoo and conditioner purely for the purple shampoo aspect.

Tips: Use both the shampoo and conditioner together to maximise benefits.

In love with this duo

I was excited to try this duo. My hair was falling out a lot, dry, and not in a good state. My hair is thin, there's lots of it and is curly wave. I instantly noticed the difference after the first wash with this duo. After using both, my hair didn't feel like any of those things. I didn't need products to tame the mane. It felt cleaner for longer, stronger and there was significantly less fall out. The scent of both products are pleasant and not over whelming, and both lathered well. The biodegradable bottles is a huge plus for me and They look good too. I love this product - I can't wait to try the hair mask.

Tips: Definitely use the products together.

The idea was there.

It had all the elements of a successful hair care duo but something went wrong. The shampoo was too drying and the conditioner was too heavy. A little tweak to both product formulations perhaps? You can tell the ingredients are quality but that doesn't matter if they leave your hair feeling drab and limp. The shampoo left my hair knotty with dry ends, stripped of its natural oils and my scalp ended up flakey. The conditioner started off well, giving my hair shine and bounce before it became heavy and left my hair feeling lank and sad.

Tips: The shampoo is a super lathering product so be aware of that and the conditioner is heavy and creamy so you only need a smidge.

Good Affordable Natural Shampoo Conditioner Combo

I use the Garnier Fructis Hair Food Aloe Shampoo and Conditioner together and very happy with the products. My hair feels soft and looks healthy. It smells nice and is loaded with lovely natural ingredients. The products packaging is recyclable which is a bonus. Highly recommend!

Garnier Hair Food Aloe Shampoo and Conditioner

I really liked the unique packaging of the products. While the bottles are the same shape, thankfully you can tell them apart as the shampoo is mainly green while the conditioner is mainly white. I found the bottle cap hard to open on the shampoo - I thought I was going to break a nail trying to open it! The conditioner was easier to open, so I guess it is luck of the draw and some bottles from the range will be easier to open than others. On the plus side I feel like the lids would be pretty leak-proof!

The shampoo is clear with a gel-like consistency. I found I needed to use a bit more product than I would with other shampoos, in order to get a good lather. I also definitely needed to double shampoo, as the first application I didn't feel like I got much lather or much of a clean at all. Then, once I rinsed my hair the second time it felt almost too squeaky clean.

Unfortunately I didn't like the smell - the shampoo in particular smelt quite fake and chemical-like. Overall, it made the whole washing experience pretty underwhelming. Thankfully, the scent of the conditioner was more mild but overall I would prefer for the range to have a light floral scent or even no scent at all.

The conditioner is a milk like consistency which I wasn't expecting and am not used to - the liquid was quite runny and sometimes I found it hard not to squeeze out too much product. I also found it hard to control - getting it from my hand to my hair actually turned out to be quite a mission!

Unfortunately the thin consistency didn't feel great to apply either. It felt like I needed to apply quite a lot, but on contact with my hair it just seemed to sink in and my hair felt quite coarse. When I tried to brush the conditioner through my hair to disperse it, my fingers were getting stuck in knots. I also ended up having knots that I had to brush out after the shower (I don't get this with most other conditioners).

After drying my hair, it felt clean but it didn't feel overly soft or look shiny/hydrated. My hair didn't feel weighed down though, and I appreciated that the products delivered on that promise.

To me, the shampoo and conditioner just do not feel like they work well together. The shampoo left my hair feeling squeaky clean almost to the point of feeling stripped, so I felt like I needed a really moisturising conditioner to balance this out. I will continue to use the products, but I won't be repurchasing. I liked the concept of the products - it's great that they are made up of natural and vegan ingredients. However, I don't feel like it was executed as well as expected, so I wouldn't purchase them again. They didn't feel great to apply and they didn't provide great results.

Garnier Fructis Hair Food Aloe duo

This Duo are both a thin creamy constancy, that is easy to use. The shampoo has a great fragrance and the conditioner was i little less to my liking but still in keeping with the shampoo. I did find i needed to use a little more shampoo than conditioner with this duo, i think that's OK as i was using it less often. I would normally was my hair every other day (activity dependent) i was able to do 3-4 with these so would last a decent amount of time for me. While i do find this a little more expensive than other supermarket brands i'm using it less often so will still work out a good price per usage. These slender rectangular bottles are easy to hold and use, are a nice colour and have clear information on the label. My hair has been left with a nice natural shine and nicely hydrated which it is what the labels say they do, my slightly frizzy ends are much less of an issue and less visible.

If your like me where your hair is getting slightly dry at the ends and just loses its nice natural shine quickly then this is for you. It smells pretty good and you end up with healthy looking hair that needs less washing.

Tips: If you can purchase on special its a pretty good discount and when your hair is feeling more healthy after a couple of weeks you wont regret it!

Does the job for supermarket duo

The first thing I like is the packaging! Different from the classic Garnier shampoo/condition slim bottles - it is super cute, reminds me of a juice bottle. The bottles look and feel like a premium version of the classic Garnier range. The breakdown of ingredients on the back of the bottles is easy peasy to understand, with 96-98% of natural origin products I found it an interesting read.

As all Garnier products do - it smells yummy. I wasn't quite sure what to expect with Aloe Vera, it was light and refreshing but not overpowering.

I always try to use the same brand and range of shampoo and conditioner to make sure I am getting the intended outcome. The combination works well with my hair, leaving it feeling light, fresh, and clean. The products do what they say, and as far as being a supermarket brand product it is definitely one of the better ones I've tried. I probably liked the shampoo better, it lathered well in my hair (which always feels satisfactory). I always shampoo twice and condition once. I only use the conditioner on the lower parts of my hair - the ponytail. I may have used a bit more than typical (due to it coming out the bottle quicker than expected) it left my hair feeling nice and soft.

At a 350ml volume bottle, I would expect it would last me a few weeks. It is on the smaller size, which is good if you are just wanting to try a new product out. The price point of $12.00 each!! (full price at countdown) is way more than I wouldn't want to pay for a supermarket brand hair product especially since I grew up using the classic Garnier range which on sale was $3! It is currently on sale for $8.40 which is more realistic in my opinion.

Garnier Fructis Hair Food Aloe Duo

These guys look super cute on the bathroom shelf and I wish they worked better for me as I love the concept!

Unfortunately the second and third use didn't live up to the promise of the first experience, my hair felt really dry and weirdly needed washing earlier than my usual three or four day cycle. Almost like it was oily but felt even drier than usual.

Very strange!

The shampoo and conditioner look and smell lovely, but just left my hair feeling coarse and dry after 3 uses.

I'm interested to read other reviews from the trial as maybe its my slightly fried blonde locks that the shampoo didn't agree with? Another reason for brown hair envy maybe?

Well it’s ok

Packaged in beautiful sustainable packaging, smells delish but does it do what it says…… I’m unsure, I found myself needing to wash my hair more using this product. My hair got greasier quicker, it wasn’t nearly as soft as when I had been doing my normal routine and the conditioner was so thin it fell off my hand before I got most in my hair. Would I use it again? Probably not as i like my normal routine where I can wash my hair once a week.

Tips: Put conditioner directly in hair or you will loose it.
