Essano... you've done it again!

I am a huge fan of this product. Another great product by Essano!

The results were fantastic - left my hair soft, silky and smelling delightful! (actually took my back to my holiday in Samoa). The coconut and pawpaw is not only a great combination to help the condition and hydration of your hair, but also smells divine!

I had seen it under the "new products" at the supermarket when it first came out, and I just had to try it - glad I had made the sacrifice of that amount. Although you will notice it on sale often at the local supermarkets.

My hair is very long, normally rather dry and lifeless, but when I had bought this shampoo, it made a dramatic difference! Very clean, soft, full of bounce and volume, easy to maintain and smelling great!

Easy to spot on the shelves, as most Essano products are in simple yet cute pink bottles. Easy to dispense product, and even with the large amount of shampoo I need to wash my long hair, the bottle lasted for a fair while.

If you're wanting great hydration for your hair... look no further! I will definitely be repurchasing.

Tips: Definitely team this with the Essano Coconut Milk Conditioner for ultimate hair care!

Not their best work but not bad

I picked up a bottle of this to try as i really like Essano's face and body ranges.

This shampoo, which comes in a sturdy pop top bottle, isn't terrible - but its not as hydrating as I had hoped.

My hair is dried out by this shampoo - not terribly, but enough to mean I can't use it every wash.

It smells lovely, and I love the shimmery, almost pearlescent look of the formula, but can't confirm that it hydrates my hair.

I'll use this bottle, but probably not replace it

Tips: Definitely give it a go if your hair is healthier than mine, or washed less frequently.

Use the leave in conditioner as well as your normal one n conjunction with this to up the hydration factor.

Left my hair dry and limp

Usually I go on first two times of using a product before I make a judgement and this product, After second time was the same result. Dry and limp hair, maybe it doesn’t cater to my hair type? Thick and wavy, mid length hair?

Tips: Some things work and something’s dont, this shampoo smells great but that’s about it for me.

One of my favourite supermarket shampoos

My hair is thick, and naturally frizzy and wavy, with quite dry ends due to bleaching, so few hair products actually end up making my hair feel sleek and silky, but this one does. I've been consistently repurchasing this shampoo since it was released. The shampoo comes in a squeezy plastic bottle made of recycled plastic (bonus!). I do find the packaging a bit awkward, as once the product gets to a 1/4 full, the shampoo just won't come out with ease, but that's my only gripe. The shampoo is white and has a thick texture, and has a heavenly coconut and frangipani scent, that smells really natural and not artificial. The smell is AMAZING and lingers long after I have washed and dried my hair. The shampoo lathers well and washes out easily. I find it doesn't strip my hair and tames my frizziness. I can literally feel as soon as I apply this that my hair feels so much softer and smoother, it genuinely does feel like a salon quality product. I know others have experienced this product as making their hair oily, for me I only wash my hair twice a week, and I don't find an issue, and my hair is naturally quite oily.

Not As Good As I Had Thought

I received this product in the BBBE You Won't Believe It's Hair box and have been using it for almost 3 months. I have used a couple of Essano products now and had high expectations for this product.

Like the rest of the Essano brand the packaging is a gorgeous rose pink. The smell is beautiful like a bouquet of flowers. I like the smell and don't find it overpowering.

Results: I found it just okay. This shampoo was no where near as hydrating as I expected it to be though I must say it is summer and probably didn't help. I wonder if this would have been better to use in a different season. My hair is slightly softer, just not as soft or smooth as a previous shampoo of a different brand I was using before trying this one. I also had a bit of a reaction to this shampoo, which is unusal as I know I have used another Essano Shampoo in the past and had no reaction to it.

All in all though I won't be repurchasing this.

Tips: Does not lather very well, I found applying product to wet hair, then running water over hair for a couple of seconds enabled a really good lather.

On the fence

I'm not sure about this shampoo - it's okay.

I like the colour of the packaging, and I like the idea of a coconut milk hydrating shampoo (my lengths are rather dry and I'm prone to frizz so hydration's a good thing)... but it just doesn't do it for me.

The scent reminds me of baby sick and I don't find my hair any more hydrated. It does clean it though, which is why I don't dislike it - I just wouldn't reach for it.

It has become the shampoo I keep for when I run out of shampoo and have forgotten to buy some in the groceries.

Would I recommend it? Not so much. It's not the worst, but it's not a wow, especially when considering the price.

Coconut shampoo

I received this in Beauty Review’s original “You won’t believe it is hair” box, which has since sold out. I have been using it for about 4 months.

The shampoo comes in Essano’s traditional rose-pink packaging. The lid is black, and “Coconut” is written in silver around the bottom. The bottle contains 300ml. The product is free from sulphates, parabens, and animal testing, in addition to other chemicals. The product itself is white with a pearly sheen.

One palmful of the shampoo is enough to clean my shoulder-length hair. The product is mildly scented, and smells like coconut, but is not overpowering. My hair feels nice and soft after using this, however, it does not feel especially moisturised. I have very dry hair, so I guess it would take quite a powerful shampoo to inject it with some moisture. My hair is very fine and flat as well, and this shampoo allows it to retain some volume after washing.

There are a couple of drawbacks with this shampoo: I found it hard to work into a lather, and that is probably because it is sulphate free. The other problem is the design of the lid. It has a big, flat lid, which is great for standing the bottle on its head when the product is getting low. However, the bottle has a very small nozzle, which makes it difficult to squeeze the shampoo out in the first place.

Altogether, this is a decent shampoo that is a good option if you are looking for a natural, cruelty free and affordable shampoo.

Clean and soft

I was excited to receive this in the 'I can't believe it's hair 2' beauty box. I love anything coconut and had been eyeing this up at the supermarket. The price is a little steep at $16 but I would buy it if it was on special.

It comes in a cute pink bottle which I think is gorgeous packaging. The lid is one where you push down on one side and the other side pops up. My gripe with the bottle is it is so hard to get the shampoo out as you get half way through it so you have to bang it upside down which is really annoying. The plastic bottle is just too hard to squeeze. It would be great if they could change this.

The shampoo itself is gorgeous on my hair. It makes it feel so clean and the smell is delicious. It does not lather heaps like other shampoos I have used, you don't need a lot and I feel a little goes a long way. It washes out easily. I love that the smell lingers. It smells fresh and clean. I feel like it helps my hair stay cleaner for longer also.I use this in conjunction with the matching conditioner and they are a great combo. I hope they sort the bottle issue out as that is the only downside.

Thanks for the review. I’m using Essano body wash and love it. I was wondering about the shampoo and conditioner but loathe to buy it and find I hated it! Good to have a heads up about the bottle issue. Thanks again!

Nothing amazing but reliable

Sad that in this day and age I want amazing products every time so when it literally does what it says I kind of feel unimpressed. We are quick to say when they don't meet your requirements but this is a good example of a mid product doing a mid job. It was well priced but clearly it is not a salon product so you don't get a salon result. I liked the fragrance of the shampoo - but I like coconut and it said it was coconut :-) It was not too heavy and didn't leave my hair feeling stripped. A good reliable product. I admit it was over the summer in humidity I was using this product which is notoriously a hard time for shampoo so I was quite generous with my ratings as honestly it did not disappoint

Tips: Don't expect miracles its only a shampoo Don't use too much at once or it will feel harsh Good in summer

Not so hydrating

I usually love any and all Essano products and think the brand is usually excellent value for money. However, this one is an exception: this is not in the low-price range for shampoo and I'd expect a lot better for the cost. It's a lovely pink bottle and I do love the design and smell. But it just does not leave my hair in good health: I notice it's MUCH frizzier after using this (with the conditioner). Even my daughter's healthy, thick hair goes quite frizzy after using this. Perhaps it just doesn't agree with our hair, which is a pity.
