Garnier Fructis Hair Food Goji Review

I was thrilled to be accepted onto this trial as I've been looking for a good deep conditioner for ages. I have quite long coloured hair which has also been keratin straightened so I need to be careful about not using sulfates in my hair products (as this will strip keratin right out). This product claims to be 95% natural and on checking the ingredients, no nasties so I was pretty happy about that. It comes in a big tub and is a very thick consistency, and although a little awkward to find a spot it would fit in my shower, it felt oddly satisfying to dip my fingers in and scoop it out instead of squeezing a bottle? It smells devine, more like strawberries than goji berries but didnt care, it smelled yummo.

There are three ways suggested to use it and I tried all three. First I tried as a mask after my normal shampoo and conditioner and my hair felt super silky, it kept its smooth and was actually a pleasure to blow dry (what??). I could still smell the product in my hair too which I liked. Secondly, I tried it as a leave-in treatment. I used about 50c size amount this time and worked it through mid to ends of my hair. I really liked how it makes my hair feel but would use less next time as it did make my hair a little greasy looking, or maybe save it for a Saturday night when I'm not doing much (sad, I know). Thirdly, I used it as a conditioner. I think this is my fav as my hair just feels fantastic afterwards. My hair is quite dry from the colouring and has a few split ends but this product has made a huge difference to that. I would definately replace my conditioner with this in the future. I really love this product and will hopefully be buying it again! The only question I have now is... what does it cost??

I have short hair, I have for years. I don't really do anything to it either, but my daughter gave me a large sample of this so I thought I better use it.

It smells really good, and if that price above is correct it seems very good for your money. I used it all three ways but I liked it best as just a conditioner after shampooing.

It didn't make my hair too greasy or weighed down which I liked. I would consider buying this again, but I wouldn't use it all in a heck of a hurry. I would also like to try the other smells.

After hearing so many good things about the Garnier Hair Food, I just had to have it. I have dyed hair so choose Goji Berry. I paid around $13 but you can often get them for half price at Countdown.

I love the packaging! Vibrant colours and in a tub which looks like yoghurt. I quite like the tub, it is easy to scoop out the right amount and the lid is easy to screw on and off.

It is quite thick and OMG it smells heavenly. The scent is super strong. I prefer to use this as a conditioner which I leave on for about 5 minutes as I go about my shower. It spreads well and washes out easily.

My hair is left smelling amazing and is super soft and shiny. I have less frizz and overall it looks healthy and beautiful. My hair never feels greasy or limp. I get no colour wash out using this. I love this range and look forward to trying the other flavours! A big thumbs up from me :-)

This mask like the other two smells divine. Its smells so fruity and not over powering either which is great if you are sensitive to fragrance.

Like the other two I tried, it comes in a big pot and I mean really big so much so that you have to keep wondering why it is so cheap. Such great value for money and the whole family can use it.

I've been getting great results from this mask, hair is soft, shiny and just feels and looks healthy. And of course my hair smells so good. I can't stop putting my hands through my hair because it feels so silky.

I would definitely buy again and would love to try the other ones in the range.

Highly recommend as it is such a versatile product - used as a conditioner after shampooing, mask while in the shower or a leave in treatment. Whichever method you use, you will get great results.

I love all of the Garnier Hair Food 'flavours' but I think this is my favourite purely because it smells amazing. I can't identify a difference in benefits to my hair between the scents - they're all fantastic.

It certainly conditions and nourishes like all the others. I don't tend to shampoo my hair all that often instead choosing to use this product to clean and condition my hair and it does a great job. My once dry frizzy looking hair has great shine and looks healthy thanks to using this product. As for my colour, I think it looks just the same, rather than radiant and bright but that's okay because my hair feels great and is so easy to style thanks to this product.

I use this on my little girls hair too - which is crazy and curly and the frizz has calmed down and the curls are better defined. She LOVES her tub of hair food - makes the suggestion of washing her hair a breeze!

I use this mask as a conditioner, mask and as a leave in. It doesn't leave my fine hair oily or lifeless. It just feels and looks great.

I have now tried all the hair food range! This was the last of the range and I was super excited to see my local Countdown were finally stocking it.

This has to be my favourite scent - it’s a beautiful fresh berry scent, not sickly and lasts beautifully. It has a very faint pink tint and is the same gorgeous thick consistency.

I’ve tried this all 3 ways - conditioner, mask and leave-in treatment. My favourite application with this one is using it as a mask, and for the very tips of my hair. I have lightened hair so the ends are very dry, and I have coloured roots so don’t want anything that will strip the colour. So far this has been incredibly nourishing and there hasn’t been any colour loss whatsoever.

This range is seriously amazing; there is one for every hair type and a scent that you will fall in love with

I love everything about this mask. Its afordable its smella like heaven in a pot. It a easy application you can apply it to wet or dry hair.i apply mine to my dry hair in the morning and rinse it out at bath time. It makes my hair smell good all day.

It gives my hair great body and very soft and fizz free at the same time. I will definitely be buying these for a long time

I've just tried this after seeing it (for such a great price). And it's left my hair smelling, and feeling amazing. When I run my fingers through after using the mask option and drying my hair, it feels healthy with that silky feel

It is my goal to try each and every one of these products. The ones I have used are amazing. This Gogi one has a scent which isn't my favourite one but still it is nice. This hair food is quite thick and creamy. It is very easy to use. You can use it as a mask or conditioner. I use it every time I wash my hair. I wash my hair with shampoo first then put some of the hair food on. I just use it from about half way down, keeping it away from my roots. I leave it on for a couple of minutes, time enough to wash myself then rinse off. Once I have dried my hair it is soft and shiny. I am super happy with this range and will try all the types.

This product was a really nice surprise. Really strong fruity/floral scent that smells almost edible.

I brought this out of desperation because both my daughter and I have curly hair that is always lacking in moisture and nourishment. With summer coming we will just be frizzels, so I wanted to front foot it and try to get a few good hair days in before it's 'top bun' weather.

This product is so good! It makes our hair so soft, shiny and bouncy. The curls are also well defined. The one thing we noticed is our hair doesn't require any extra product as it quickly becomes over saturated and limp. So for a good nourishing product for starved curly or damaged hair this is truly great!

We use it as regular conditioner and our hair thanks us as it has no parabens, silicones - the curly girls number 1 and 2 enemies. I cannot recommend this product enough for curly friends!

It's been a long nightmare and endless compromising trying to find a product without silicones and parabens that is affordable, smells great and does a good job. Here it is!
