Garnier Hair Food Shampoo Bar - Watermelon

Arriving in a recyclable cardboard packet, allowing for proper disposal, and no plastic waste means this cute shaped ball of hardness packs a mean punch, Right from its scent of watermelon, easy to hold slice running it Down your hair is a breeze. This bar lathers nicely giving that foamy texture we all love, the sweet scent of watermelon makes you feel your in foodie paradise. After rinsing off it does mean you r hair does feel a tad dry, a little bit frizzed from the rubbing down motion, but you’ll be wishing you had a conditioner nearby to finish off the job, lasting for a good couple of day ms in between washing, means that this little gem will hang around a little longer then normal shampoos and it takes up so little space, from the packaging to the product this is one little slice you’ll want to try.

This shampoo bar really surprised me. I had never used one before & I really liked it. Left my hair clean but not stripped out like alot of volume shampoos do. Hair was shiny, bouncy, full of body & blow waved great. Not really a watermelon fragrance fan but smell was fine not over powering. Price wise the bar equals 1 litre of liquid shampoo & retailing at $10 its very economical. Love that it's vegan, has zero plastic & no artificial additives. I paired with the matching watermelon Hair Food mask & they compliment each other really well.

I have tried Shampoo Bars in the past and had decided they were not for me (another brand). However, so far, I am pleasantly surprised with the Garnier Hair Food Shampoo Bar - Watermelon.

The bar comes in a lovely little cardboard box which took up no room in my recycle bin. The packaging was bright and exciting, and you felt good about yourself just by how little waste you were creating on this planet. However, at the same time no information was spared on what this product could do or how to use the bar.

The little solid Shampoo bar has a Watermelony fragrance which is pleasant but not completely natural smelling but I enjoyed the fragrance whilst using it.

The bar is surprisingly easy to use. It foams up easily and you get great coverage over your hair (I have fine hair but lots of it). I always shampoo twice and my hair felt as clean, if not cleaner than other products I use. After using the bar it hardly looked like I had even used any product at all, I can see how this would last a very long time.

Once my hair was dry it was shiny and healthy (I have found some other shampoo bars would leave my hair to dry and dull). Some products tend to lead to my hair getting oily very quickly but have found this bar would leave my hair looking clean for a couple of days (I used the Garnier Hair Food Conditioner too, If I had left out the conditioner I may have had more Oil Free hair days).

Overall, so far I am really pleased with this product and would definitely consider purchasing this again. I would recommend to anyone who was looking to cut their waste, cares about our environment or who just wants to have an alternative for lovely shiny hair

To begin with I was confused as to how, what looked like a bar of soap, would generate enough foam to actually wash my hair. From first use I found I found this product great. It only takes a few wipes of the bar on your scalp to generate enough foam to be able to lather and wash your hair thoroughly. It was easy to rinse out and left a subtle but pleasant smell. My hair was soft and shiny after use and was gentle on my scalp (I have psoriasis) and found this did not irrate my scalp. I have since become a regular user and alternate between the banana and watermelon flavors.

I have been going to try this shampoo bar for a long time and finally decided to buy one and give it a go.I love the scent and it lathers up well which is a nice feeling.I am in a habit of shampooing twice so did the same and massaged well into my hair and scalp.My hair felt really nice afterwards and was very soft too. I have fine hair which can go lank but my hair did not sit flat as it usually does which did make it look a little fuller. Over all a good experience .I like the idea of reducing plastic and this is certainly a good way to start.I had purchased a different brand in RR which started me wanting to try others and I am very happy with them both.I like to use different shampoos and enjoy seeing the difference to my hair.

Now this product is handy, it last a while and you don't need to worry about broken lids or bottles falling over. Only thing I wish is that it smelt more like strawberries has more of a wheat like smell.

The Garnier Hair Food Shampoo Bar is the first shampoo bar I have tried and it is so effortless to use. I love that it's tear-shaped so that it doesn't slip out of your hand. It made my hair very clean (including my roots) and smelled like watermelon.

I am a long time user of bar shampoos. I find them to be environmentally and pocket friendly so was super keen to try Garnier’s offering. This watermelon bar smelled fantastic and lathered up well. My hair was clean after using it and didn’t weigh it down. It’s slightly cheaper than other shampoo bars available and it’s handy for travel…highly recommend it!

Using this with my regular conditioner has been great. My hair tends to get oily at the roots quickly, but dry ends. I've used other shampoo bars and felt that they didn't work well, this one lathers nicely which others claim don't need to do. Maybe that's just a mind thing, but I feel I need a bit of lather for it to clean.

My hair felt clean without that squeaky stripped feeling, and I could run my fingers through it easily. It felt nice when my hair was dry, I didn't notice a big volume difference, but I have a lot of fine hair so it didn't make it frizzy either.

I like being able to smell the fragrance lightly in my hair.

While it was a good experience, I'm still not sure if I am sold on solid shampoo, it just feels like a bit of extra effort...I know that's probably terrible.

I tried this product at the same time as the Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon. I never use shampoo on its own so I did use it with conditioner. I usually shampoo once to twice a week.

This is the best shampoo bar I have tried. The packaging was nice and small but the bar itself was larger than most others I have tried. It claims to last up to the equivalent of 500ml - I haven’t used up the bar so I can’t comment on that.

I found it easy to use, i lathered it into my hands and then rubbed that through my hair. It lathered a small amount. It doesn’t claim to be good for dyed hair so I can’t hold this against it, but the reason it didn’t get 5/5 for use again is that I have dyed hair (green) and I felt like a lot of green came out while I washed it. It did give me the usual squeaky clean feeling that you get before conditioner. Combined with the conditioner my hair felt really soft and I did notice more volume. I usually always need to add leave in conditioner to my hair in order to comb it after I shower but with this shampoo and hair food combo I didn’t! My hair felt really good. The scent was nice, not too strong but definitely there so if you don’t like scents this wouldn’t work for you. I didn’t notice any scent once my hair was dry though.

Overall I like this and would use it again but not every time to preserve my hair colour.
