This is a great product which has multiple uses. It can be used as a conditioner, a mask or a leave in treatment. I always use it as a mask. It leaves my frizzy hair smooth and shiny and smells divine. Great value product.

Reviews
After reading all the fantastic reviews I decided to add this one to my stash . I got this one along with the Goji berry one.My hair is thick and dry especially on the ends .
Packaging comes in a large sized pot . Labelling is bright and reminiscent of the fruit . Consistency is thick and creamy . This scent reminds me of freshly sliced papayas. It takes me on a tropical journey with this sweet explosion of summery fruits. I like to grab a table spoon of it .I brush it through my thick hair . It melts in easily . I like to leave it in for a few hours . The longest ever was a 9 hour shift . I know naughty . But when I got home and rinsed it out my hair was soft and hydrated. My hair smelled wonderful. I like to use it as my leave in conditioner . I don’t have hair drying time in the morning. This saves my hair from having a damp smell.
So far my tub has lasted me over a month with daily usage . Sometimes I reduce to every second to third day . It’s priced fairly . When I see it on special I buy it . I’ll keep buying this one.
I was so dissapointed with this flavour, I didn't even use it til the end. It had no slip whatsoever so was literally useless at getting any knots out of my hair. I have thick, curly hair.
Tips: Don't buy it if you have thick and curly hair
I love this product!! It is an amazing hair product and the intense conditioner makes your hair feel amazing - especially If you hair is damaged. It doesn't cost that much for what you get and you can use it as different things like a hair mask or a hair conditioner. It lasts a pretty long time as it comes in a big container. I would like to try the other flavours as well!!
I'm a huge fan of hair food, however this variety isn't the best for my hair which is dry and frizzy with waves. Its probably best suited for straight hair which isn't overly dry. The macadamia and aloe versions however are AMAZING for my hair.
However, that being said for the price and not to mention tub size even with average result in conditioning my hair this is definitely worth a try to see if it works for you. Worst case you can use it up as a conditioner.
The smell is pleasant fruity fragrance that's not overly strong. It's a lovely thick texture as all hair foods are and if I had not tried other varieties I'd have been pretty happy with the purchase as a conditioner. It is reasonably moisturising.
I love Garnier as a brand and this range is definitely worth trying out
I use this product as a conditioner and leave in for my very dry hair. I started using because it is free of silicones, alcohol etc so perfect if you follow the curly girl method. I liked this one better than the Goji or Aloe versions, haven't yet tried Banana or Macadamia because the Papaya has been good for my dry hair.
I started using this everytime I washed my hair for 2 months, but didn't really find a difference in my hair, there was really no improvement at all. Although it did smell great.
I really like the smell of this one and how soft my hair feels after using it. You can use it 3 different ways and the tub is massive. I'm not a huge fan of twist off tops for products that need to be used in the shower and it's quite a handful as the tub is so big (if you don't have space to put it if you have a small shower surface to put your shampoos, etc like me). I love Garnier skin care but have found that my hair isn't suited to Garnier products-I tend to end up with itchy dandruff unfortunately. I got this on sale though and will use up what I have but may not buy again.
The Garnier Hair Foods are basically famous if you follow the Curly Girl Method. They Key is to find the right one for your hair. I found Papaya to be too heavy for my Fine, wavy/curly hair. The price of these products is sensational - especially if you get them on special at the supermarket. you get so much product, and they all smell amazing. I think Papaya would be great for people with medium - thick hair, and just adjust the amount you use.
Tips: As the Papaya Hair Food is too heavy for my fine hair - I do NOT use it as a mask or as a leave in. I only use it as a very moisturizing conditioner every now and then and ensure I rinse it all out.
Got really good deal two for one. Smells nice but not sure there is any noticeable difference - I’ve got very thick hair and apart from making it slightly greasy didn’t seem to be any significant benefit? I also found the very large container quite unwieldy and hard to handle with slippery hands
