GarnierI was excited to try the new garnier fructis formulas as I've loved using the old version of the range and I'm keen to move towards products that don't contain SLS and paraben free.
I have long thick hair which is dry and damaged as I often blow dry it. I was hoping that this shampoo would add so moisture back into my hair and repair the damage. I have been using this shampoo and conditioner in the range for the past week. So far have enjoyed using it. I have found that my hair feels softer and silkier. I think if I continue to use this over time it will provide nourishment and moisture into my hair.
The texture of the shampoo is of a gel consistency. This shampoo does lather up when you use it which is surprising seeing as most paraben free shampoos don't lather up. This made is easy to apply and spread all over my scalp. I usually rinse and repeat and I found that this shampoo cleaned my hair well and got ride of the excess oil in my hair.
I love the smell of this shampoo too. The scent is really fruity and fills the whole bathroom when I use it.
Overall I really like this shampoo as I has made my hair feel softer. I think overtime it will repair my damaged hair too.
I have used Garnier products for quite a while now and have always like them. This shampoo was no different to their usual quality.
I like the newer style of the bottle and the cap seems to open a bit easier than the old style which is great, as I seemed to have issues at times lol. The colour of the bottle is nice and summery and the avocado on the front makes it appear natural.
The smell is lovely as always and the formula is nice and thick and creamy. I tried the "only use the size of a 10c piece if your hair is short" as suggested by BR in an earlier blog and it worked! I normally use far too much shampoo and that probably ends up building up on my hair. So I found that the shampoo lathered up nicely and when I washed it out my hair did feel smoother than normal (usually the ends feel really rough after I've shampooed).
I like the fact this shampoo is paraben free and contains natural avocado, olive and shea.
I found this to be a nourishing shampoo as advertised to be and have used it twice so far as I only wash my hair 1-2 times per week but like the difference in my hair already.
Tips: Do as the experts say and only use what you need for your hair :)
