L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Conditioner Review

L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Restoring Conditioner is a decent supermarket branded hair product. I love the smell of it, it's typical of most of the L'Oréal hair care range. I can't quite decipher the smell but it is pleasant with a mixture of floral and fruity scents.

The consistency of the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Conditioner is creamy and lathers on easily. I used L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Conditioner every 2-3 days for about a week and a half and I found that it left my hair feeling silky with more bounce.

I also have the L'Oréal treatment mask and I tried using this after using the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Conditioner once to compare the results and it worked wonders! My hair was left feeling fuller. So this is one of those times where you really need to use the full product range to fully benefit from this product.

The only thing that I was not happy about was that I started to get flyaways since using L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Restoring Conditioner but I have found that by putting a little hair creme in towel dried hair solves this issue. KMS Freeshape Hot Flex Creme is perfect.

Overall, I would continue to use this product but would not go out of my way to buy this product, especially if it was full priced (RRP$8.99). I have seen it on special at the Pak N Save supermarket for $4.00 each and I think this is a more realistic price tag. but if you want to see the full results of this product it has to be used in conjunction with the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Shampoo and leave in conditioner.

So in turn with using the shampoo, and doing my "hair washing" backwards, I would first condition, then shampoo, then condition again. I found this made my hair feel AMAZING before it was even dry!

Packaging: Looks appealing to me and simple to read

Did it: 1. Feeling stronger. - I think mixed with the shampoo plus my additional hair care I need to use - My hair does feel way better!

2. Looking fuller. - Can't say I have noticed this to much....

3. Looking revitalised. & 5. With a healthier shine. -Yes looks healthier, and has a bit more bounce with it and the shine lasts!

4. Silkier to touch. umm is it bad that I can't stop playing with my hair?

It smelt really nice and that's where the good stuff ended for me. The consistency was really runny so I found I had to use heaps of it to cover my hair properly. It didn't detangle my hair an awful lot. No improvement at all for me to damaged ends. I'm sorry but I wouldn't bother going out to buy it even though it is well priced

I didnt honestly find this made a difference to the condition or feel of my hair. I found the formula quite runny and was left with a very strong perfume smell for the rest of the day which Im not too keen on. I guess you could call me a salon snob as I usuall have been using shampoo and conditioner fro a salon so maybe this is why I didnt notice a difference but didnt find my hair was any dryer or worse so if you cant afford a salon shampoo and conditioner this is a great affordable alternative. But it does say to follow up with the treatment which I didnt have so maybe this is an important step!? I wasn't totally disappointed but just didnt notice a difference

I felt that this conditioner had a nice enough fragrance, it did manage to re-hydrate my hair rather well. I did however find that if made my normally dry hair get oily considerably quicker than my regular conditioner so for this reason I was not the hugest fan. I feel that if I alternated between brands then I would still be able to benefit from the repair function that it offers without getting oily hair.

To start, my first impression of this conditioner was that it smelt amazing. The smell also stays on for some more time after washing.

It leaves the scalp and hair clean and fresh.

L'Oreal claimed this conditioner would restore my hair back to its optimum health, however the product was a little disappointing. I don't think it made my hair any better than it was before. It did make my hair incredibly straight if I washed before bed and woke up in the morning which was a bonus.

I started off with high hopes with this product, and it just didn't live up to its expectations, I probably wouldn't purchase this type next time around.

I love this prouct! Its one of the best conditioners I have tried in a long time. The packaging is convenient and handy, not to mention its gorgeous! I love the formula its creamy, its not thin or too thick, the consistency is perfect and easy to apply. The conditioner smells great and has a distinct smell, but I love it. My hair is shiny, but not greasy which I love. The conditioner has helped to keep the red colour in my hair, I haven't had any colour fallout in my last few washes which is amazing!You can buy this product from my local supermarkets so I will definitely be purchasing again :]

The Maroon on White was a nice clean look for the conditioner bottle. I loved the scent that the conditioner left on hair, which was kind of fruity. The conditioner made my hair look and feel softer and also helped fix most of the split ends. Loved using this product.

thank you for letting me trial L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Total Repair 5 Conditioner , when using it with the shampoo, I did notice my hair felt really nice after using both products, definately softer, and the products smell lovely, i also went out and brought some more, as it was so good, so definately using again

I have used this conditioner for a few weeks now and am definitely noticing a difference in the texture and feel of my hair. It seems softer, and fuller than it was and is a lot easier to manage. Like the shampoo, the conditioner smells divine, it's not an over powering scent though. The texture is in between thick and thin, not too runny and not heavy and oily feeling either. I found that I didn't need to use a lot, and as I worked my fingers through my hair they slid through the ends fairly easily. I was really impressed with this product and will certainly use it again
