L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Fibralogy Conditioner Review

This conditioner is awesome. I do think that it is best suited to people who have super fine damaged hair, however it also did wonders for my frizzy hair. You don't need alot, which I love, because that way it lasts longer, and it really does make a difference in my hair-noticeably shinier and definitely hydrated. I didn't notice a change in volume, but that's most likely because my hair already has huge amounts of body.

I brought this on a whim when I went to purchase the Dream Lengths from Countdown after finishing my trial bottles, only to find that they don't (to my horror!) stock it yet! I have fine limp hair so I love products that give me moisture without weighing it down. I have been using this now for about 2 weeks and i'm not blown away but not dissapointed either. It smells like a classic conditioner, kind of powder fresh. It is super thick and does give my hair plenty of body and keeps the oils at bay for at least an extra day for my oily hair. I would purchase this again but Dream Lengths is my preference from this brand!

I love this product range so much, every item is a joy to behold. I admit to having lost faith in the promises written on various hair care packages, so I was pleasantly surprised when the Fibraology range went above and beyond its claims. I had great results with this product. My hair is volumous without being fluffy and looks freshly styled all day despite the minimal effort required to get it looking fab. I've used the Fibralogy serum on its own with other shampoos and conditioners, but must admit that using the three Fibralogy products together in tandem really does make a huge difference. I recommend for anyone who has trouble with flat or lifeless fine hair.

I had high hopes for this shampoo and conditioner combo. As said in my shampoo review I was comparing the Loreal Elvive Fibrology duo to the more expensive salon version Nioxin which I have been using for the past 8 months with great results. The conditioner has a smell very similar to the shampoo, which I consider a typical scent for supermarket haircare - not unpleasant but nothing special. I'm a sucker for conditioners especially that smell good enough to eat so that was definatly a small disappointment. I looked past that though and still was optimistic that this combo could be a great cheaper alternative. The conditioner was a very thick consistency and spread through my hair easily and left it soft after the wash. I did notice that when the shampoo and conditioner were combined they made my hair frizzy and static which I find extremely frustrating and discontinued using the conditioner after this. My hair continued to be slightly static when I swapped to another conditioner, but not as bad. As stated in my review of the Loreal fibrology shampoo I have definatly noticed that my hair feels thicker and has more volume but I don't really put this down to the conditioner, considering I have swapped to a toning conditioner while still using the shampoo and haven't noticed a change in thickness or volume. Overall I wouldn't repurchase this as a set I would probably only repurchase the shampoo!

Nice attractive turquoise and pink bottle, 250 mills. I love the way both bottle stands on its top, no shaking the bottle to get the product out right down to the last drop. Made in France.

Conditioner is quite thick, a nice cream like colour, lovely mild mint/citrus fragrance, It has filloxane in it this is meant to help thicken hair and strengthen it, not weigh hair down, condition and give your hair more volume it's meant to get into the hair fiber and go solid, giving hair more thickness. I wash my hair every day, so it's had a good trial to see if it keeps my hair conditioned. I've used the matching shampoo.

This conditioner made my hair tangle free didn't weigh it down and did condition it nicely, It doesn't feel slimey as some conditioners can make it feel. It rinses out easily and didn't leave any residue. I do put products on my dry old ends when I dry it, my hair did get stringy without doing this, it left my hair bouncy and light not heavy but slighty fluffy, I did tend to work it into the ends then up towards my scalp, I let it sit on my hair longer just to get the benifit of the conditioner, as my ends are drier, so yes made my hair bouncy and it seams to have more volume, my hair strands don't seam to be any thicker but I'm sure it's feeling stronger less breakage. I also managed to get a comb through it without a war it also helped with the flyaways.

So it gets my tick of approval for fuller bouncy silky hair with a mild fragrance left in it.

I was very excited when the parcel containing the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Fibralogy Shampoo and Conditioner arrived in my letterbox. So excited in fact that I almost jumped straight in the shower to give this miracle a go. When I did finally use the shampoo the next morning I was very pleased with it's thick rich consistency and the lovely thick lather it created. However I was disappointed with the lack of fragrance which is something that I personally enjoy when washing my hair. The conditioner was also lovely and rich and creamy, but again missing the ping of fragrance. I was disappointed that after towel drying my hair it had a matted feel to it although it did dry up ok. I decided to keep trying the combination and after a week I stopped as I didn't like the way my hair was feeling. It had a straw feel to it - like it was being striped of nourishment rather than being feed. I also can't say that after a week my hair felt thicker - just drier. For this reason I stopped using both the shampoo and conditioner. I understand that there is also a serum that goes this the Shampoo and Conditioner to use afterwards. Maybe this is needed to get the full effect, however that was not part of the trial. Although I have used and liked L'Oréal products in the past, I will not be using or purchasing this particular product again as it is just not right for my hair type and I feel doesn't really do what it promises.
