It's not often you find a shampoo and conditioner combo that do what the say they will but L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense definitely does. I found the conditioner to be nourishing and left my hair so so soft yet without fly aways. I did find I needed to use more conditioner that I usually would as I have quite thick hsir and didn't seem to go very far. the smell is not too strong but you definitely notice it and have had comments on how amazing my hair smells. I would definitely recommend this product to friends and family who are after a shampoo and conditioner smoothing combination.
Tips: Use in conjunction with the shampoo for best results. Buy two conditioners for every one shampoo.
Usually supermarket brand conditioners will make my hair feel super silky and strong when they're applied, but most of that good feeling rinses out with the product. This conditioner was different. When I applied it in the shower my hair didn't feel any different, and I was worried that it wouldn't make any difference to the condition of my hair. It wasn't until after I blow dried my hair that I really saw the value of this product - my hair was visibly softer and smoother (even my boyfriend commented on it!) without looking too flat. I love that this conditioner achieves such good results without making your hair oily, and it definitely reduces the time I spend styling my hair! A really good product for hair prone to frizz, or people who have trouble with humidity damaging their 'do.
Tips: Use a wide toothed comb or your fingers to evenly distribute this conditioner through your hair.
I found this product absolutely terrible and extremely greasy. I have always used salon quality products and this has just emphasised why. the product made my scalp very flakey. Not happy
This conditioner has done exactly what it said it would! My hair tends to get frizzy when it dries but I've found that using both the shampoo and conditioner for over a week now, it has reduced the frizziness extremely well! The conditioner doesn't leave your hair feeling oily and has a nice smell which is a plus :-) I definitely recommend anyone with frizzy hair to try it
Tips: Don't use too much and try not to rub it into your roots to prevent your hair going too oily
I really like this product, in conjunction with the Smooth Intense shampoo. It did leave my hair beautifully soft and shiny on day one, although by day two it was not as noticeable. It did reduce frizz and my hair sat much better after using it.
My only real issue with this, and it might just be a dealbreaker for me, is that it was very difficult for me to spread this conditioner through my hair, and consequently I had to use A LOT of it at a time. Now I usually had to use a fair bit as my hair is long but this seemed a bit much even for me! I still have maybe 2/3 of the shampoo left and maybe 1/4 or a 1/5 even of the conditioner left.
Smelt gorgeous but that's pretty much where it ends. After applying I expected it to detangle and get that smooth feeling whilst rinsing it out but I found my hair felt tangled and I would have to apply more to get it how I usually like it. I'm going to stick to my usual conditioner.
Having thick, dry and frizzy hair conditioner is an absolute necessity for me! I found this conditioner very nourishing and made my hair really soft. As the conditioner is quite a thick formula it did weigh my hair down a little, which was a pain. This conditioner is suppose to make your hair super smooth, which it didn't do for me. I had high hopes for this product because of the description but was a little disappointed when it didn't really follow through. I have tried a bunch of different smoothing products and have been disappointed, and this one kind of falls into that same category. Although the product made my hair smooth while wet, as soon as my hair was dry it wasn't noticably smoother. The shampoo and conditioner make a nice combo and this isn't at all a bad product, it's definitely something I would suggest for people to try out because it could work miracles on one person's hair and not the other, and for the price it's not a big risk to take. The product retails for $8.99 which is a little more expensive than other drug store conditioners but it does have nourishing elements such as Argan oil in it. I think the reason it was mediocre for me is because of the thickness of my hair, I need something a little more intense.
Tips: don't put the conditioner in or near your roots, it'll weight your hair down and make it oily! Leave the conditioner in for a few minutes for prime results.
So I was lucky enough to get invited to do the trial for this shampoo & conditioner (thanks BR team!) and I'm seriously in love with it. The conditioner is thick and smells amazing and keeps my hair so smooth and soft. I actually have hair extensions which are starting to get to the end of their life but this conditioner is keeping them tame and under control, and my natural hair is oh so soft! Seriously love this conditioner for my bleached, crazy hair
Tips: A little goes a long way
My hair had recently been processed quite a bit so was dry and frizzy so it was able to put it to the test. I thought maybe since it was made for frizz and was a conditioner it may mean that I wouldn't have to use serum after washing my hair. But I did. It was frizzier than my usual shampoo and conditioner even!
Tips: I think if your hair is frizzy some deep conditioner and serum is what you need no matter what the conditioner/shampoo label says.
