Limp, weak hair with new formula

I'm one of those people who has a lot of trouble finding a good shampoo/conditioner that works well on their hair without irritating their scalp. My hair is dry, especially at the ends, with an oily scalp and I generally get frizz around the sides and back of my hair above my ears.

I used to use this shampoo and conditioner off and on during the cooler months as it gave me moisturized shiny hair with body, less frizz, and few side effects. Unfortunately, the new formula leaves me with limp, weak hair with flyaway ends and leaves a strange coating on my scalp and roots which I think may be from the glycerin. The new formula gave me some slight shine, but it just looked like naturally healthy limp hair instead of the incredible moisturized shine and body I used to get from the old formula. It also made my hair oilier. I noticed my hair needing to be washed again within 12 hours in addition to making my scalp incredibly itchy once my scalp got oily. I think the itching may have been caused by the intense fragrance in this product. I won't repurchase this, and I think after the reformulation I'd seriously second-guess buying any of the Sunsilk formulas now.

Tips: If you have dry, frizzy hair, try something else like Garnier Fructis Nutri-Repair 3 or Tresemme Salon Silk No Frizz instead.

Not fantastic

I was excited to try this as I love to have silky, shiny hair....but it did not really make much of a difference. I certainly did not get the brilliant shine like it said. Perhaps my hair is just too damaged for this particular shampoo as my best friend loves it.

It does have a great scent and lathers up really well but that is as far as it goes for me unfortunately.

I will continue to use up the bottle but would not repurchase. Definately a lot better supermarket shampoos out there that make your hair look great.

Dry scalp alert!

Whilst it did leave my hair with a shine, after repeated use I had dry and itchy scalp and had to use an anti dandruff shampoo for a while to get my scalp back to a healthy condition. I figured it may have been a number of factors so put it to the side for a while and when I ran out of another shampoo/conditioner I returned to the Sunsilk and lone behold, a few days in and my head was super itchy with dry scalp again. I do sometimes have sensitive skin and have been known to use many colours and dyes but it's not something I expect from my hair cleaning products. To me it isn't worth the slight shine. Not for me this product although it did smell nice!

Great scent, no shine!

The shampoo comes in a sleek and pretty bright pink bottle. It has an amazing fruity/floral scent and honestly whenever I used this I had so many compliments on how good my hair smelt. This however, was the only thing this really delivered on. It was a decent shampoo and it left my hair feeling clean and soft, but it did not deliver its promises. My hair was no shinier or softer than normal from using this shampoo. The shampoo also has a very runny consistency so it is easy to spill or waste when showering. However, this was very affordable and it's hard to complain for that price. Overall, I would rather use other shampoo's in the Sunsilk range than this one.

cleans my hair and smells good

I'm really not fussy when it comes to shampoo. I have two things that I need- for it to lather and clean my hair and for it to smell nice. This shampoo does both of those.

This is super cheap and easily accessible at the supermarket. It comes in an attractive pink bottle and is clearly branded from Sunsilk.

It smells quite sweet and sort of fresh. I find it does a good job of making my hair feel clean, although it does feel slightly drying when I rinse it out. Conditioner fixes that though. I'm currently using it with a different branded conditioner so that could be why I'm not noticing any kind of shine effect from it.

I'm on the fence about re purchasing. I'd like to try out some more expensive products to see if they can help my long, dry hair. If I don't think there's a noticeable difference with more expensive shampoos then I'd probably pick this up again and just use expensive conditioner. If you're after something cheap from the supermarket, then I would say, why not give this a go.

Sunsilks Brilliant shine

I decided to buy this shampoo because the reviews about it are pretty good. I got it a few weeks ago. I dont normally go for sunsilk because the bottles are so small. I couldn't wait to try this out.

This shampoo comes in a vibrant redish pink slender bottle. On this bottle is thd Sunsilk branding. On the back of it is the instructions of how to use it. The texture of this shampoo is white creamy colour. It has a sweet scented smell that has a fresh after smell.

When I apply this to my hair it came out of the bottle very easily. I like to use about a palm ful because my hairs quite thick so I need quite a bit. This bottle lasted me about two weekes with daily use. I'm not completely sold on this product. I didn't notice any major results. My hair did feel clean though.

Brilliant, maybe, Shiny, totally

It seems like Sunsilk is always on sale at Countdown everytime I go to pick up new Shampoo and Conditioner. This time was no exception and I picked up the Brilliant Shine ones this time. I feel like eventually I'm going to review the whole Sunsilk line!

The packaging of this is a darker shade of bright pink and it is really pretty in your bathroom. It does annoy me though that the shampoo bottle has a slanted top. It is fine for when you have plenty of product but when you are running out it is hard to find a spot to keep it upside down.

I find the scent of this a fruity floral sort of scent, nice enough and not offensive. I really like that it only takes a small amount to lather up my whole head really well. I think this is a really good everyday shampoo. It makes my hair feel very clean, but doesn't dry it out or tangle my hair.

I have used this in conjunction with the conditioner and I really do think it made my hair quite shiny and I think it is my favourite of the Sunsilk range so far.

Brilliant Shine Shampoo

Nice to use, I have a small bottle which I keep in my gym bag. The lid is nice and secure and the shampoo lathers nicely leaving my hair feeling clean and smooth with a pleasant scent.

Cheap, cheerful, effective!

The teeny price tag on this actually hides the fact that there is a very good shampoo (and conditioner, for that matter) hiding inside these bright pink plastic bottles.

This is my budget preference. I have a fave shampoo that's more expensive (from Lush) but if I need a cheap or quick option I often come back to this.

The white shampoo is mid thickness, and has a faint berry scent. It cleans well - perhaps slightly drying in comparison to the Lush, but certainly nothing dramatic. Hair is left nice - soft and clean - and if you follow with the matching conditioner then on a budget, I'd have no complaints.

Not all shampoos from Sunsilk are created equal, but I think this range is one of their best.

Tips: I get travel sizes of this range regularly from Postie Plus. They work out more expensive than the big ones but they're convenient.
