The packaging is SO BUSY. The bottle is cute, it reminds me of a milk bottle, somehow, but there’s so much writing, and pictures and just utter nonsense that it’s really unappealing to the eye.
I used a generous dollop to lather up my hair, but once it was in my hair, that was it, it didn’t move and it certainly didn’t lather any further. A second dollop seemed to help, and weirdly it untangled my unbrushed hair, which was nice.
Once rinsed, my hair felt ratty and horrible, and I mean, usually it feels a bit meh after shampoo but never, NEVER, as bad as what this made it feel.
Honestly, other than the smell, this was a real let down, and I won’t be using the remainder of it.
Thank-you Beauty review for sending me the Garnier Fructis Banana hair food shampoo to trial. This range is recommended for dry hair so prefect for me as I have long dry hair. The shampoo in the range is 96% natural origins and contains no silicones or artificial colourants. The packaging is yellow and looks like a smoothie bottle. The shampoo is clear and quite thick. I find it a little sticky but it does lather up well with water. I found I didn't need much either. The smell is quite strong with the shampoo so I tend to wash it off straight away. The first time I used this my hair looked clean but by day two my roots were quite oily. The second time I used it my hair looked and felt greasy and I could feel some residue on my scalp. I wouldn't say my hair is any more nourished or less dry. I definitely think there are much better shampoos out there and perhaps it wasn't the best suited for my hair at this point in time. I wouldn't repurchase this again as my hair felt greasy after washing.
Tips: Definitely avoid contact with your eyes.
