I was selected to review this as part of the trial team on here. This shampoo and conditioner was something I was super keen to try as last year I lost about half of my head of hair due to medication issues - so I was keen to try something that promised to help thicken my mane.
If I spotted this in a shelf - my eyes would definitely gravitate towards it based solely on the packaging. I love the vibrant colours and design - it is super eye catching and I would definitely be intrigued as to what it was.
The bottle is your standard shampoo bottle, so nothing special there. In terms of the scent of this - oh my gosh, it is heavenly! I actually wish I could find a body wash that smelled like this. It is that perfect mixture of sweet muskiness that (when used with its accompanying shampoo), lingers in your hair.
This didn't dry my hair out or make it feel coarse. For some reason I half expected it to - I don't know why. It also left my hair feeling shiny and clean. This also has definitely helped build the thickness of my hair.
My hair is naturally thick (although nowhere near as thick as it was prior to last year), and after I would say about 4 washes, I noticed that the bulk of hair felt fatter than usual when I tied it into a ponytail.
I don't know how this works - aside from what L'oreal say on their website about it, but it doesn't feel like it is damaging my hair at all.
This will be interesting to keep using - I am curious as to how thick it will make my hair after prolonged use (will it stop working? Or will my hair need to go on a diet?). But at this stage I am very, very happy with it and definitely recommend it if you are looking for a product to help make your hair thicker.
Grey hair looses it's fullness and my hair is lightened as well so it also is fragile so be nice to revive my limp locks and have luscious fuller hair.
Lovely turquoise bottle and bright pink lid and label definitely attractive, sits on it's lid so no shaking to get it down the bottle.
Filloxane penetrates the hair from within then expands and then solidifies so gives you thicker hair fibres from within. Each wash my hair should get thicker. Developing thickness over ten washes. This filloxane stays in the hair fibre. Made in France.
Actually has a nice mild fragrance, a soft mint /citrus smell, it has a nice consistency not to thick or thin, a clear pearl in colour, a small amount is all I needed, it foamed up quite nicely. I love the way this shampoo left my hair feeling light bouncy and clean, it's a deep cleansing shampoo but my hair doesn't feel stripped as it can do with some shampoos, didn't get tangled up in the washing process that also happens with some shampoos. No dry scalp or itching. It sort of puffed up when I was working it into a lather was quite nice.
My hair does look fuller and healthy but no shine. I don't think it actually thickened my hair fibres, I had a really good look. Less hair breakage and that's a bonus as I tie my hair up and I'm so rough with it. It has made my hair is bouncy and has more volume to it, it's not fluffy or frizzy it does feel silky. The more I've used it the fuller my hair has gotten.
So yes a tick of approval for bouncy fuller hair with a lovely fragrance to it. I'd say value for money it has done as good a job as dearer volumising shampoos that I've tried.
Tips: Work the shampoo into a good lather and let it sit on your hair so it can do its thing.
