I purchased this lovely Lush shampoo on my first official Lush visit. I had heard so many good things about this product so had to try it for myself. I got the big massive pot because like most Lush products, I usually end up getting them again so thought I may as well purchase the biggest pot they had lol.
First initial impression I got was when I opened the lid and was hit with a strange smell. I could smell the coconut but its not like the coconut smell I'm used to. It smelt a bit funky and didn't fall in love with it at all.
Before the official use: To be honest with you I didn't even know where to start as it was such a strange product to use. It had lots, in fact the majority of the pot, of coconut pieces in it and was wondering how on earth they would rinse out of my hair.
During the washing process I must admit I was really starting to wonder whether I was using it correctly. It made my hair feel really dry, kind of straw like and it just felt really horrible. I washed it as thoroughly as I could but I noticed when I got out of the shower after rinsing that I still had quite a lot of coconut bits still in my hair. I was able to get them out after my hair had dried a little by shaking my hair like a dog (yes you heard me, like a dog lol). They then came out.
Actual results - I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised because although my experience with the smell, the use and the washing out wasn't that good, it really made my hair feel super soft and left a nice shine to it.
Unfortunately based on the smell and the fact that I couldn't rinse it out well and just the overall ease of use, I wouldn't re-purchase this again.
Thumbs up for the recyclable pots and the actual feeling and look of my hair.
I love lush, I have many products from them that I use every day. I have curly hair and cant use alot of store bought shampoos due to being allergic to detergents. I wanted to love curly wurly I really did, I love the smell and the way it makes my hair feel and it didnt react on my hands (yay). The only issue I had was no matter how long I washed it out for I couldnt get rid of all the flakes of coconut! Which wouldnt be a problem if it wasnt hughly noticeable in my very dark hair! I had people pointing it out to me at the gym (embrassing). I gave it quite a good go but no matter what I did I couldnt get rid of it all. So unfortunately I gave up on it and u probably wouldnt recommend to others.
