The packaging of the bottles was very eye catching. I loved the bright orange with the image of the citrus fruit, very aesthetically appealing. The scent of these products was also a very big plus for me, the citrus-ey sweet scent was to die for. It left my hair smelling so fresh and yummy.
The first time I tried these 2 products I used them separately which was fine. Although, I did find that the shampoo lathered much more than the conditioner and that is why the second time I trialed them I used them together, almost like a 2 in 1 product. This way I got the lather that I liked and it was also a more efficient way of hair cleaning, bonus! I really did like how the shampoo and conditioner were paraben free as chemicals are bad and damaging for hair, but I did miss the lather in the conditioner. Both the shampoo and conditioner washed out easily which I liked as my hair is medium to long in length and there is nothing worse than standing in the shower for a long time just waiting for your hair to rinse clean. Once out of the shower, I noticed my hair would leave a nice citrus scent wherever I walked and I was not complaining.
For the fairness of the trial I let my hair dry naturally (as I would do any other day of the week). My hair felt a little bit softer afterwards but not as soft compared to head and shoulders which would leave my hair feeling soft, clean and light afterwards. One thing that I didn’t really like about the products was that my scalp got really itchy all of a sudden about a week later although I am not sure if this was to do with me having a sensitive scalp or the shampoo and conditioner just not getting rid of dandruff as I would have liked. However overall, I did notice a small improvement in the amount of my hair that would break off and fall out when brushing it.
Overall, I found that the shampoo and conditioner treatment was good for the price of it, as it was very affordable compared to the normal products I would normally go for. The best thing about it was the citrus scent followed by helping with my hair break off and fallout. I will definitely keep using this product until it runs out as it did work like it said it would. However, I don’t think I would re purchase it as I get better results with other products such as head and shoulders as it caters to my hair/scalp needs that little bit more.
This just might be the best smelling shampoo and conditioner I have ever used.
The Goodbye Damage Shampoo and separate conditioner is a new range from Garnier Fructus that uses some very fancy sounding vitamins and oils to help repair heat damage and other 'external aggressor's'. It smooths and fills in the cracks caused by the above factors and claims to fix 6 months of damage in 3 washes. Honestly, I'm not sure if that's happened during the week that I used these products BUT my hair is definitely softer and easier to manage. It dries straighter and feels so nice and clean that I have to stop myself touching it. I also really like that the fragrance really does linger in my hair until I wash it even with the daily use of straighteners.
I really love the price and accessibility of the shampoo and conditioner and really like that I can pick it up whilst I'm doing my groceries. it has also lasted well so far as I found myself not using as much as I would usually.
Overall I think this is a really great shampoo and conditioner combo, they really complement each other and make my hair feel clean and amazing!
Tips: Definitely use them both together regularly to get the full benefits.
