Standard Shampoo

Trialled this shampoo and conditioner, and find it was just as standard as any other supermarket shampoo. Did not make my hair feel amazing, or smooth down with out the use of a leave in treatment after washing and conditioning. Although it is weightless like it claims to be.

Love It

I love this product! my hair is hard to manage and a bit brittle and dry. I have extremely curly hair which after washing goes fluffy and frizzy. After using this shampoo and conditioner i let my hair dry naturally (something i don't normally do) My curls were not frizzy, and my hair was soft and shiny. I use this almost everyday and without fail my curls are tight and my hair looks healthy. I recommend to all the ladies with damaged hair! i will continue to use this product and so glad i was invited to trial! Its great being able to wash my hair and not have to style it straight away to avoid the frizzy.

Tips: Shampoo first thing, then Condition and leave it in for the duration of your shower! =)

Absolutely Fantastic

Really satisfied with this product! The first time I used it I noted that it smelled nice, and had a nice consistency. The packaging was professional looking, and made me feel comfortable that I was using a good product. The shampoo lathered well, and didn't leave my hair feeling dry and rough afterwards. I sometimes have issues with dandruff, but my scalp has been really good in the past month using only this shampoo. After using the shampoo with the smooth intense conditioner, I blow dried and straightened my hair without adding other products to my hair to test the statement on the bottle that claimed to have in built styling protection, and I was really impressed! My hair straightened quickly and was smooth and shiny with few flyaways. My hair was also less greasy in between washes, which I think is partially because the shampoo doesn't dry out the hair too much to start with. The one downside I found was that it did nothing for my curls, and tended to dry my hair straighter than usual, adding unwanted volume to semi-wavy hair. I kept using only this shampoo and no other products til after I'd straightened it, and was happy that the effects of the shampoo didn't seem to 'fade' as others can, I usually switch shampoo/conditioners regularly and don't use matching combinations, but after using this, I feel confident that I could keep using both the shampoo and the conditioner consistently.

Tips: Use with the conditioner for smooth, heat protected hair that looks nicer in between washes

Love this Shampoo!

First of all, the packaging is nice and simple. I love that the bottle is see through so I can see how much product I still have left. The fragrance is divine, and it lasts at least a couple of days. I have tried other brands of 'anti-frizz' shampoo and they haven't worked well for my hair (it's naturally a frizz ball). This shampoo cleans me hair well, leaves no residue and I'm left with hair that is clean, light and blissfully frizz-free. I think it really is good value for money, will definitely be repurchasing.

Tips: This shampoo lathers quite well so use a small amount (roughly the size of a $2 coin) and massage in.

Loreal Elvive shampoo

From the moment this product arrived in my letterbox I was in love, the fragrance as I opened the package was simply divine. I found it perfect for daily use didn't make my hair oily at all and I found it did make it a little easier to manage and not so much flyaways when I straightened my hair. all in all I think ive found my new favourite shampoo and conditioner highly recommended and good value for money..

Tips: Works even better when you use this shampoo and conditioner with the matching treatment, I did and my results were amazing my hair loved the TLC

Elvive Smooth Intense Shampoo

I really enjoyed using this shampoo and I think my family did to as it is nearly all gone! I loved the clear bottle so I could see how much I had left and the colour is inviting. The smell was nice and light and not to overpowering. It gave a light scent to my hair. My hair felt silky and smooth after using it and it seemed to be alot easier to style my hair later.It was easy to rinse out which is great. The only thing I had trouble with is it seemed to be quite liquid and to begin with ended up with alot more on my hand than I wanted. I will be using this again.

Tips: Great for dry hair and when you are in a hurry.

Would not use again

I was lucky enough to be on the trial team for this product. The bottle is very attractive, I opened the bottle, it smelt fresh and pleasant. It has a very thin consistency. I struggled to only use a small amount. It lathered up quickly and well. However that’s where the positives ended. It was easy to rinse. But there was no smell left on my hair afterwards. My hair felt almost straw like from it. I noticed no change with frizz. If anything was a little bit worse. For rrp of $8.95 this was not worth buying again. As a first time trier of L’oreal paris products I was very disappointed.

Tips: Tip, Be careful to slowly tip the bottle, with the thin consistency it’s easy to tip out way to much. Causing wastage.

I might stick with this one!

In my opinion, this shampoo is one of the best on supermarket shelves at the moment. I have seen a marked improvement in the condition of my hair - it is definitely less frizzy and very soft. I still use styling products and my GHD, but definitely not as often between washes. The Argan oil is probably the reason for this, however, my hair can go for days without even a hint of oiliness. Considering the RRP and the results achieved, I will definitely carry on using this product. It has a lovely smell that lasts until the next wash, and the transparent bottle makes it easy to guage when you're running out.

Tips: Use less styling product to begin with, and only use more if required. I found that I didn't have to use as much after using this shampoo.

ELVIVE Smooth Intense Shampoo

I like the presentation of this product and the smell was very pleasant. I can't say I've really noticed a great deal of difference with my hair though possibly slightly less friz.
