It's thick, very pale pink, creamy. It's unscented which I wasn't expecting. I've used it as an intense conditioner and it works well. I also like it as a mask. Both ways reduce the amount of frizziness my hair gets after blowdrying it. I think that it truly helps to protect my hair but it does get greasier a bit quicker. A little goes a long way! I can normally go 3 days before washing my hair but with this, I have to wash every 2 days. I don't think I'll leave it as a leave-in treatment because it'll be way too heavy. I enjoy using this after washing my hair with the Garnier Watermelon Shampoo Bar.

I have thick, mid length hair. I’ve always been on a hunt for a hair mask that’ll make my hair feel nourished and soft, and this is pretty awesome. As well as it smelling AMAZING, it makes your hair look and feel SO healthy and rejuvenated. My only downside is the packaging, I wish it was in a tube or bottle. The tub is quite large and would be annoying to travel with.
The Garnier Watermelon Hair food is great. I wasn’t sure if my hair would be right for it as I have very thin bleached hair and find anything too heavy can weigh it down and make it look oily but this didn’t do that. It left my hair feeling moisturised and healthy. And it made it smell great! Would definitely repurchase
This mask was awesome and my hair was amazing when I used it. My lank fine hair actually had body and it made a real difference. The fact that the packaging is all recyclable makes it even more attractive especially to the teenagers in our house. We loved it and would definitely recommend
I have quite fine hair so I was really keen to give this a go. Although I wasn't really a fan of the watermelon scent I was really impressed with how it made my hair feel. I've used hair masks in the past and found they made my hair incredibly soft but this one really gave my hair some oomph and definitely made it feel and look fuller. I would love to keep using this hair food and hopefully they bring out a different fragrance.
This mask can be used as conditioner, mask or leave in. I wouldn't use as a leave in personally as I think it would be to heavy for my hair but it would definitely hydrate & give amazing shine. Again not a watermelon fragrance fan but it was fine. Used with the matching shampoo bar & was really surprised how they both were in my bleached fine hair. Lots of bounce, shine & volume & blow waved awesome. Will continue to use to see what the long term effects are.
Priced between $10-14 this mask will last a long time as a little goes a long way.
Tips: Only use a little, it goes a long way.
I like that this has 3 options for use, because it will appeal to people for different reasons. When I first opened the package it came in I thought the watermelon scent was going to be too much for me, but I actually enjoyed the light notes I caught after my hair was dry. The packaging is bright and appealing, but it didn't fit on my shelf, so is sitting on the shower floor.
It worked best as a regular conditioner for me. It was a bit too heavy as a leave in conditioner and my scalp felt a little itchy with that. My hair felt soft and smooth after blow drying, but after air drying felt almost a little greasy to the touch (it didn't look that way, just felt like there was product still there) I think I will use this occasionally as a mask as I'm quite sold on my current conditioner, but I do enjoy this.
Tips: Works nicely as a conditioner with the shampoo bar.
Unfortunately my psoriasis reacted badly to this so i won't use it again but it smells amazing and did leave my hair soft and silky would probably use again if i didn't have psoriasis.
Thanks BR for putting me on this trial by Garnier!
I have thin fine hair that is very limp and dull so I was really excited to trial this product (together with the shampoo and conditioner). This product claims: volume, bounce and movement to fine hair and hair feels soft. It is a new vegan formula that is 97% natural origin ingredients, and I couldn’t find any description on the packaging about recycling like the shampoo and conditioner.
Anyway, this mask can be used 3 ways. 1. Conditioner. 2. Mask. 3. Leave-In. Of course I tried all 3 out paired with only the shampoo and conditioner (and in the case of using as a conditioner I didn’t use the actual conditioner).
My favourite combination was shampoo, conditioner and using the mask as the mask.
When I used this as a conditioner, my hair didn’t look very silky or soft (it looked “not brushed” not long after brushing) – this may have come down to not using enough.
When I used as a mask, after conditioning, I kept it on my hair for a minute as suggested on the packaging. It was easy to rinse out. After drying and styling, my hair looked incredibly soft, clean, shiny and so much volume. I loved this combo.
When it comes to using the product as a “leave-in” – I applied it after towel drying my hair (you can put it on dry or wet hair) and let it dry naturally. It looked really nice, full of volume – however I do use straighteners and once I used those the hair where I applied the mask looked really limp and look like I needed to wash the mask out.
I’ll be using this product as a mask after shampooing and conditioning, so I love that you can get all 3 and use as a set!
Tips: Don't use straighteners after applying this as a leave-in.
I've used the Papaya hair food one before first time trying watermelon hair food... again like the shampoo bar the smell is divine. Makes your hair very soft and manageable I don't leave conditioner in to long all over as I have a greasy scalp but did apply to the ends for longer, combing hair after is so easy I think after longer use my dryish ends will improve more will definitely continue to use love the products aren't full of chemicals cause I can be very sensitive to some of them
Tips: definitely try leaving it on the ends longer for those dry ends keep away from the scalp more if you have greasy scalp
