Smooth and silk

Love the texture and feel of this “hair food” I used it after the cleansing bar as a conditioner and found it made my ends soft, nourished and shiney. It’s not weighty or greasy and rinsed out well. I also used it as a leave in conditioner like the instructions said and added a small amount to the tips of my dry hair, again I found a little went a long way and it has a great smoothing quality I enjoyed.

Tips: A little of this goes a long way. Start with a small Amount and add more as needed

Food For Your Hair

Wow what a massive pot. Was a bit awkward being so big getting it opened in the shower when you have small wet hands. I'd probably prefer it was in a large tube as was hard to get the lid back on when you had the product on your hand and you need to get the lid on so the water from the shower didn't fill up the container. After washing with the shampoo bar I used a small amount on the ends of my hair and a little goes a long way. Comb glided thru easily and I rinsed out after going about my normal showering business. Rinsed out well and left my hair feeling silky smooth and not weighed down. Hair was lovely and manageable afterwards and felt good after blow drying and straightening. I'd probably only use it maybe once or twice a week after using the shampoo and conditioner bar. Also used as a leave in conditioner but would only do this for me probably once every 2 weeks. Smelt amazing and is so creamy..

Tips: A little goes a long way. Start with less and move onto more if needed.

Garnier Aloe Vera Hair Food

I used this as part of a trial with the shampoo and conditioner of the same range. I like that this can be used as a conditioner/hair mask/leave in product. I have used as a conditioner and a hair mask and I think it made for a nice moisturising conditioner but as a hair mask I much prefer other hair masks as they much more richer and thicker than this and my hair definitely didn't feel as soft with this product. Easy to apply, easy to rinse off and has a faint pleasant scent.

Good for nourishing dry ends

I personally found this too nourishing as it weighed my hair down throughout the day but could see how someone with dry ends might find this helpful. I still love the smell of this range and the price point is affordable yet effective. I think this mask would be perfect for hair that has been bleached, the bleach can be incredibly drying on hair.

It’s Pretty Good

I actually quite liked this product! it’s multi use so you kind of get more bang for your buck and get to try it a few different ways and see what works for you and your hair! It smells amazing and it very light weight hydration it makes my hair nice and bouncy but i have VERY dry hair so i don’t feel like it gives me enough moisture but it definitely keeps it nice and sleek and shiny.

Tips: i like to use this with the matching shampoo and conditioner for the full effect of the products :-)

Garnier Hydrating Hair Food Review

I have. Previously received and used Garniers multi use hair food product before and did find that my hair is and has been pretty soft and more easier to manage with no kinks or knots.

The product rinses out somewhat pretty quickly and leaves hair feeling very soft and silky afterward. I usually apply the product and leave it for a good couple of minutes while I do other things in the shower (I always wash my hair first) and then rinse off before I hop out.

The scent is not very strong and I would probably say it is on the low side unless you are sticking your nose very close to the little. It would also be space saving, convenient and easier to use if it was in a bottle but then also it would be much easier to use up all of the product in the round potter and being able to visually see that it is completely used up is good rather than having to cut open the bottle.

Overall, I did enjoy using it and thought the scent was not overpowering and mild.

Great for some extra self care

I used this product in conjunction with the Garnier Fructis Aloe Vera Shampoo and Conditioner as a leave in mask (and note that it can also be used as a substitute for conditioner and as a leave in conditioner). I found it was a nice, albiet not necessary addition to my haircare routine and I am looking forward to occasionally incorporating it as a mask when I wash my hair. I feel like it makes my hair smoother for longer, but I don't think it will be necessary to use every time I wash my hair. I was impressed that the mask only needed to be left on for 1 minute, which is perfect for those with a busy lifestyle.

Tips: Perfect when your hair is feeling dry and in need of some "tlc" - I would recommend using it in conjunction with the Garnier Fructis shampoo and conditioner from the same range.

Mixed reaction to aloe hair food

I have used the mask both as a conditioner and as a leave in product. Works well as a conditioner and mask with my hair being soft an manageable . Not such a fan as a leave in conditioner as I felt my hair seemed a little straw like and needed to wash my hair again before I normally would have as I felt there was too much product buildup on my scalp despite trying hard to use it in my ends. Perhaps it just takes a while for my hair to adjust to a new product though so will continue to use

Smells fresh

I'm a huge fan of these products and have even recommended them to friends. This aloe one was nice but not as good as the other ones they have. I enjoy how much you get in the tub and how a little goes a long way.

Is it a leave-in mask or a conditioner?

I have mixed feelings about this Garnier Fructis Hair Food. First impressions, it’s nothing fancy. The tub is nice and generous but it makes it hard to handle in the shower. It’s not a design for aesthetic bathrooms, especially not alongside the shampoo and conditioner. Usage, it’s nice and light. It smells really good and I definitely noticed the smell lasted longer than my other hair products. However, this was when I used a little as a leave-in treatment after my shower. Personal preference, but I’m not a big fan of the fact that it is multi-use. And intense conditioner is the same as a hair mask, in my opinion, and if a product is made to washout, I don’t think it should have a leave-in option and vice versa. If this product is meant to be left in the hair after you wash it, why also advertise it as a conditioner? It would be a waste to wash out. As a conditioner, I didn’t find any more nourishing than normal conditioner. As a hair treatment, I found left my hair oily and greasy even though I only applied a small amount on the ends. I wouldn’t repurchased, and I wouldn’t recommend to my friends, but I do like it enough to use up.

Tips: Use in place of a conditioner and don’t apply to your roots
