Garnier Fructis Coconut Water Shampoo Review

First time i'd used a Garnier Shampoo although not my first experience with the Garnier Brand as i've used their sleek and shine treatment before which I absolutely loved.

I've been using a salon shampoo for the last 6 weeks so I was interested to see how this product would compare.

To be honest I was expecting it not to compare by a long shot, but boy was I pleasantly surprised!

It smells amazing which is a big plus from me and despite being paraben and silicone free, it foamed up nicely and washed out easily.

When I styled my hair it didn't feel weighed down or on the other hand too slippery for me to style.

My daughter is using it and she really loves it too.

It's a yes from me and i'd absolutely purchase it again!

Garnier Fructis Coconut Water Shampoo is great! It comes in a green plastic bottle with an easy lift lid. It smells just like coconut and makes my hair feeling great and looking shiny. ITs definitely assisting with my oily roots and dry ends. With a recommended retail price of $5.09 I thinks it’s great value for money. I have even used it on my children’s hair as well, as they loved the smell and found it worked great. I will definitely be buying more once I’ve run out.

Really love the natural colour and images of the packaging that this shampoo come in. Garnier Fructis always produce products with amazing smells and this one is no exception, it smells fruity and natural. It has an amazing lather that really feels like it is cleaning my hair and really getting rid of all those excess oils and It washes out easily. I noticed the next day that my hair had a lot more ‘body’ than it usually would also. My hair lasted 4 days without needing a wash, whereas before I could only go two. I would defiantly purchase this product in future. It does exactly what it says it will!!

This is one product thats off my shopping list. My hair is very oily and I need to shampoo every day. This shampoo lathers well and smells like any other shampoo. Infact there is nothing unique about this shampoo. The hair feel soft post washing. But they get limp very fast and feel heavy and oily again in a day. Not a good experience.

I received the Garnier Fructis Coconut Water Shampoo and Conditioner duo as part of the trial team. The shampoo caters to oily scalp and dry ends and claims to be sulphate and paraben free – Natural products for the win!

Firstly the shampoo is packaged in the standard Garnier green coloured bottle with a flip top for easy opening and closing. Popping the lid open revealed a subtle nice smell, not too strong.

I have dyed hair, so I tend to suffer from oily roots and dry ends. Receiving this product seemed like a God send. Using a small dollop of shampoo, I was easily able to lather up my mid length hair. I only washed and rinsed my hair once, you don’t want to strip away all the natural oils anyway and my hair wasn’t that oily.

Once my hair was dry, I did notice that my ends seemed a lot more ‘refreshed’, looked less dry and felt clean – which is always the goal after washing hair.

I wanted to see how long this would keep my hair from looking oily and to be honest it was 2 days – better than other products I have used in the past.

I’m glad this product is in the Garnier range and would defs repurchase.

Garnier used to be made in France but is now made in India so the French name's now somewhat obscure...it's made by Loreal a French brand. I thought the colour of the packaging was nice, I liked that it's made from recycled materials. It didn't smell like coconut at all seemed like a watermelon smell. The shampoo did make my scalp less oily but I seemed to get a bit of dandruff I put it down to the chemicals as it does have a lot of harsh chemicals in. Which is probably due to it being a cheap supermarket shampoo. I think nothing beats an organic natural shampoo and it's worth the money. You get what you pay for. I liked the silicon and parable free ingredients which not many people know but silicon can cause bleached hair to break when coloured and coats the hair to make it shiny so is like plastic coating your hair.

This shampoo is differently scented compared to the matching conditioner. Personally I think the scent of the coconut water conditioner is nicer. I like that this product is without parabens which are linked to cancers but I do note that there is still sulfates in this product. Sulfates are what make the bubbles and foam when you wash they can often strip too much of the natural oils in your hair making it dry and less shiny as well as potential to dry out and irritate your scalp. Sulfates can even get through to the hair cortex which can lead to dull fizzy looking hair because they can powerfully strip your hair and skin of its natural protective oil this allows the bad things like pollution, pathogens harmful microbes so you are at higher risk of getting sick. Even though the additive in this product can be argued to not be a true sulfate (due to being short an atom or two) it is just as damaging. Aside from all this and I must mention that sulfates are in most shampoos and beauty products so this product brand is in no way alone in that aspect. A positive for this shampoo is along with the coconut water which helps hydrate, the fruit extracts in this product may help nourish the hair, give hair volume, help prevent hair thinning/falling out and combat dandruff. Now for the performance of the shampoo: The product lathers decently but soon afterwards all the bubbles disappear as if my hair absorbed all the foam up. Because the foam or bubbles disappeared on my hair with this shampoo, I then felt the need to add more of the shampoo to get the bubbles back and "properly" wash my hair. So I feel the consumer of this product may feel inclined to do the same as without bubbles it does not seem like efficient cleaning if that makes sense.This is not the first shampoo I have used that has this affect and It will be something to do with the chemical composition. My hair felt soft after use but I did use with conditioner it did seem a bit frizzy at the ends at first but the next day the ends had settled down and actually curved nicely. The thing about this product brand is that will make me repurchase in the future they have modified the plastic packaging to make it more friendly to the earth I will be keen to try some of the other types from this brand.

I loved this shampoo! I have tried quite a few shampoos and this is right up there for a supermarket brand. I have thick hair so from the outright i knew i would need more product then normal.

First of all the packaging is great, it is a reasonable sized product and price compared to the organic brands in the supermarket. It is easy to access and stands well on the shelf.

The smell is beautiful not overly fruity and not coco nutty at all. I had to shampoo twice due to thick hair, but thankfully my hair didnt feel like it had been stripped which i have experienced with other shampoos.

It lathers really well and rinses quickly as well.

I have managed to go three days between shampoos and my hair once straightened held for a lot longer as well.

So two thumbs up on this product, will buy again!!

This product seemed like it would be perfect for my hair type. I can never seem to find the right combination for my oily roots and dry ends, so I was really happy to give this a go.

First off - the packaging. It's a bright, cant miss it green, it even jumped out to my 8 year old when we were at the supermarket. It's easy to open in the shower, sounds silly but its not always the case. The scent of Garnier is always sweet, but this wasn't too overpowering - it lingered in my hair (my brother even told me I smell nice!) but wasn't too strong as to annoy me.

The first time I used it my hair wasn't too oily, so I felt like it did a really good job. It washed well and worked with the conditioner, leaving me with nice smooth hair. The next couple of times my hair was oily and then had product in it. I felt like those tmes it didn't wash my hair as well. The first time I left it, and as it dried it still felt like it was a bit oily. The second time it didn't feel like the shampoo was cleaning my hair, I used another one as well and it worked out better.

I think it is hydrating, so doesn't work that well if my roots are quite oily, but it felt quite good for the dry ends. I'm still not sure if I will buy the shampoo again.

I was lucky enough to receive this range to trial. The packaging is great - I love the vibrant green, that just looks clean and appealing. I also like the eco-friendly packaging and the lid opens well with wet hands in the shower and closes securely.

It smells fruity, and lathers well. I like the shampoo the most because I feel it give my hair a really good clean! Especially since my roots are often quite oily. It just leaves my hair clean, soft and feeling amazing! I did follow it up with the conditioner on a couple days, but I feel that the conditioner didn't do much when I used just the shampoo alone.

Overall, I would repurchase the shampoo again! For the price, it's a bargain, and is pretty much suitable for everyone because my family uses it too and love it.
