disslike

the thing i liked about this conditioner was the packaging , its easy squeeze system you can get every bit of product unlike pump system . and it also smells nice .

I used this product a week (every second day ) and im highly dissapointed , it made my hair so dry and tangled and the conditioner deffiently didnt make it any smoother .

maybe you need to use the serum with it to get the full effect ?

Heavy and almost encouraged frizz

This shampoo I thought might be the answer to my problem of my frizzy hair however this shampoo left my hair fizzier than if I used normal shampoo, not only that as soon as I put any product in it felt heavy and dirty products that I had previously used that didn't give me this feeling.

I wont be buying this product again and wouldn't recommend it to others.

Epic Fail Shampoo

I was so excited to try this shampoo as I have thick curly frizzy hair I have used Argan oil an I love the smell....The bottle is very cool but the positives end there. My first wash I used the shampoo my hair felt stringy very heavy and like it had been stripped of all its goodness. my hair became very lack lustre an was very dry and frizzy. The smell is lovely and when washed out the scent lasted a long time however this product did not do what it said it would.

More frizz than usual...

I have been trialing this for a few weeks now, I have very long thick hair and have found it seems to end up more frizzy than normal. I know it includes some extra oils for heat protection which is good. I don't normally straighten my hair often but felt I needed it after washing my hair with this shampoo. I also needed to wash my hair every other day rather than my usual 3 day cycle as my hair felt more greasy. On the up side the container is clear so you can easily see how much you have left in the bottle and it has a pleasant fragrance. Perhaps just not the right fit for my hair :)

L'Oreal Paris Elive Shampoo & conditioner

I found the shampoo lathered nicely and has a lovely fresh fragrance. I like to shampoo my hair twice to make sure my hair is nice and clean, however, I found I needed to shampoo it three times to achieve that clean feel. I have long hair so I like to use a generous amount of conditioner. I left it in for around three minutes. When it came to blow drying my hair I found my hair was very knotty and difficult to manage, not how it usually is. Once my hair was dry it had a lovely shine but felt dry and was fluffy. I don't rate these products very high and wouldn't purchase them myself.

Tips: You only have to use a small amount of shampoo as it lathers up well.

Smooth intense?

I wasn't happy with this shampoo i found it made my hair very dry, it didn't smooth or tame any frizz in my hair. This is after using it for a week, I couldn't really find a positive in this product.

....

I do not know what to write about this product, I have used it for over 2 weeks now and my hair feels like straw as soon as I apply it to my hair it feels so hard, and when I naturally let it dry it frizzes up so easily, maybe I am not using it right who knows It may work wonders on certain types of hair but one thing for sure it really didn't help my extreme damaged frizzy hair in anyway :(

L'oreal Elvive Smooth Intense Shampoo

The shampoo smelt wonderful once opened. I lathered in the shampoo in sections, it was easy to apply as very foamy. I did not need to use a lot which is good for the pocket. My hair felt a little rough whilst rinsing it out, not as nourished or hydrating as I thought. I shampoo'd twice to be thorough. Both times my hair did not 'drink it in' just felt a tad straw like. once rinsed out it smelt great, after using the conditioner and having rinsed well my hair did not feel wonderful and smooth however once blow drying there were less fly aways and lots more volume so if you are after smooth and volume this may be worth trying, styling was easy after and hair smelt nice for a couple days.

L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Shampoo

While this shampoo looked promising, I found that the smell was the best thing about it. I naturally have frizzy hair, and it is regularly coloured, and I found that this shampoo dulled my colour noticeably. I would use it again if I was in a bind.

Tips: Teamed with the conditioner (and the serum which I went and purchased) my hair was a little less frizzy, but not as incredible as the packaging promised.

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.
