Garnier Fructis Coconut Water Conditioner Review

I really enjoyed trying this conditioner as I have natural tendency for oily roots and as my ends have been bleached they can often be dry feeling and frizzy in nature.

The packaging is sleek and I prefer the new click lids on these bottles versus the old design. The bottle now stands up sturdy in my shower and closed with an audible click so no chance of leaks. I do however miss the signature neon green bottle that was easy to spot on the shelf. The text is clearly written and it's easy to see which variant you are buying. I think the word conditioner should be larger however to distinguish the two bottles more obviously, the only difference is this bottle is slightly darker green than the shampoo.

The smell is absolutely delicious, I loved showering with this and made me want to wash my hair daily with it.

Texture was nice and thick like a good moisturizer, the colour is white and it glides into the hair easily.

I noticed less hair fall during this week which must be a good thing :) My ends felt more nourished and very soft! However it didn't seem to help their frizzy nature.

Overall I like this conditioner, it's a good affordable price and i will continue to finish the bottle and see if it improves my dry ends over more time. I would repurchase this product.

I went away on holiday and realised I forgot to bring my conditioner, when I got to the store this was the cheapest one I found that wasn’t budget or home brand. I was pleasantly supprised when I used it it left my hair feeling silky smooth and soft. I have very thick hair and I find it hard to get conditioners that make my hair this nice and silky. Over all it’s a good product for a great price

I was lucky enough to be selected to trial this range. Firstly, I like the packaging. It's bright green, vibrant, and attractive.

The lid snaps open and it's easy to squeeze out the right amount of product. The conditioner itself smells quite fruity which I found disappointing because I was looking forward to a coconut scent.

The conditioner applies easily enough, but I found that it doesn't do that much for my hair. It claims to balance oily roots and nourish dry ends, but I didn't find this result to be outstanding, and is comparable to most other conditioners.

My hair felt clean and soft, but wasn't particularly nourished. For the price, and the claim of good ingredients, I may repurchase, but wouldn't go out of my way to get it.

I was really happy to be on this trial, as I do have quite dry/damaged ends, something I have to think about whenever I purchase hair products.

I'm quite happy that Garnier has come up with a more environmentally-friendly design, i.e. the bottles are recyclable. But what's even more exciting is the fact that this range is silicon and paraben free. I have curly/wavy hair that can be curled to different extents on any given day, and I find it disheartening to have limp hair that's not curly but not fine and straight. And I've been told that silicon can weigh your hair down to make that sad look come to light. Long story short, it's been hard finding an affordable, silicon free conditioner, which this one is!!

And the volume of my curls now!! Not weighed down, but not dried out! Very happy with the results. Admittedly, this conditioner isn't as hydrating as I'm used to, but I wonder whether what I've thought to be hydrating is actually weighing my hair down. It's a bit of a light bulb moment.

The only thing I don't like about this conditioner is the smell. Where the shampoo is subtle and refreshing, the conditioner has a sort of musk that I associate with a hair removal product that I had bad experiences with in the past.

I also would be less inclined to suggest this conditioner to friends who had different hair types as me / who really needed some heavy hydration, as I've found this is more of a balanced product.

I really liked the shampoo and definitely approve of the conditioner. It is a generous size and price for a supermarket conditoner and smells amazing and not over powering at all.

I used a blob on my ends and left it on as a bit of a mask whilst doing the leg routine in the shower (tmi babes i know) and it rinsed out well and didnt make my hair feel heavy at all.

I have definitely experienced a lot of conditioners that are a lot worse than this and are so full of silicon that when you wash it off it leaves that horrible residue on your skin eyuck!

Once my hair was dry, styled and serumed it held remarkably well for thick hair. Usually my hair fluffs up and turns frizzy and curly after two days but my hair held for an extra day and i didnt have to break out the dry shampoo.

Two thumbs up garnier!

I use this as my daily conditioner. I have found my hair is softer and smells amazing! I do notice that it is a bit more dry than usual. All in all used with an extra hair mask would work well.

overall a simple/basic conditioner here. was disapointed this didnt have the same great smell as the conditioner - it didn't leave my hair with any fragrance. I expected maybe a coconut smell from the name of the product. The conditioner itself performed as it should leaving my hair shiny but nothing special than what I would otherwise use (Loreal elvive) I like the fact this has no parabens and chemicals though and seems more natural than what I would normally use

This conditioner smells different to the matching shampoo in the range. They have changed the packaging of this product so that it can sit flat and you are able to get the last out of it easier I like that. I was expecting a strong coconut type smell but instead it was light and fresh. When I received this product I had washed my hair recently so I decided to just try the conditioner in the shower on wet hair to refresh and hydrate and not use shampoo. The conditioner was white creamy and nice and thick. When I put through my hair I noticed that slippery feeling that most conditioners have as an effect to the wet hair but it did not have as much slip as most others this to me would make one think that because of this you could feel like you need to use some more - you do not as I learned. Following the first conditioner use my hair felt oily the next day and on the same day I could feel the residue from the conditioner so, even though initially I felt like I needed more as the conditioner is not as slippery on the hair I did not need to use more product than usual and after the first use my hair did actually feel weighed down I needed to rinse it out a bit better and use less. I wanted to leave a bit in my hair to hydrate my ends which actually ended up a bad move as the whole lot of my hair became weighed down and greasy. The second time I used this product the results were far better the ends of my hair were light and fluffy after use and there no residue at all so I think it is key to get the ratio right and rinse out properly the conditioner did not weigh my hair down this time. This product has no silicone in it the purpose of silicone is to add shine to hair but they can build up and make your hair dry in the long run the silicone can build up and hide the true condition of the hair they put a film around the hair shaft but the film can actually be quite drying to the hair as they build up preventing hair oils and moisture from being absorbed. The good things about this conditioner is it has no silicone which means you can give your hair a break as getting rid of the build up can also be a hair damaging process. Using silicone free long term can enable you to get shiny hair naturally as opposed to a falsified shine that comes from silicone or dimenthicone, hair and scalp will become more balanced the natural oils produced at the roots will be able to be absorbed to the rest of your hair like the dry areas. This product did seem to hydrate my hair while revealing the damage to my hair at the same time. I feel like after reading up about silicone free conditioners that I would probbaly re purchase and with the packaging changed to be more kind to the environment by being recycled I think I will be purchasing from this line in the future. My review is based only on a 1 week trial as BR kindly chose me.

I bought the Garnier Coconut Water range a few weeks ago. I usually dislike Garnier Fructis shampoos and conditioners but this one definitely made me change my tune a bit, or a lot! It matches the shampoo in the same duo which I love matching things so yay. It is a darker more vibrant green than the boring old garnier fuctis that I have seen before these.

The bottle sits with the opening on the down side so that it makes it easier to get the product out. The conditioner is very rich and creamy to the touch and as described by my bebe Shana it smells like fruit juice. I was never a fan of all the sweet fruity shampoos that Garnier make but this baby has me loving the smell.

After I have shampooed I follow with this conditioner to give it the best results. I use the equivalent to two fifty cent coins to make sure I get full coverage. I smooth it through concentrating mostly on the lengths of my hair because that is where all the moisture is needed as opposed to the roots. My hair is colour damaged so needs a lot of TLC so I wasn't holding out much hope that it would feel amazing. After only smoothing it through my hair becomes tangle free (massive feat with curly hair) and like I have just walked out of a salon feeling. This was after just one wash!!

After towel drying my hair, the magic was evident! I ran a hairbrush through it with no problems. Usually I have a fight with the hairbrush to go through and undo matted knots. This time I am able to brush my hair no sweat with but maybe two knots compared to my usual 15-20. If this is what happened after the first wash I couldn't wait to find out more.

It has now been around 4-5 weeks since I purchased this. My hair is far more manageable and soft. The colour damage is still there but is way less obvious to the eye unless you're inspecting it up close. It shines and in turn allows my red hair to shine and look as healthy as it can be. So in summary, I am coconutty on this stuff!!

This milky white conditioner doesn’t have much of a scent.. or maybe because it’s so subtle that I couldn’t smell it? The consistency felt nice and creamy... It’s easy to apply and massage onto your hair. Upon rinsing, I already felt the silky smoothness of my hair.

After drying my hair.. i can say wow! My hair not only looked nice and glossy... It really felt soft and silky smooth... I couldn’t stop running my fingers through it again and again. It felt as if my hair has finally regained its natural shine again. It’s a lovely conditioner...

The day after.. it didn’t feel as silky as it initially felt. but my hair still felt soft and healthy. My hair near the scalp also felt nice and happy.

I totally recommend using this conditioner together with it’s shampoo pair.

Didn’t rate it higher as i hoped that silkiness feel would have remained longer. I will try leaving it on for longer next time and see.
