Shampoo and conditioner

This range is paraben and silicone free, which is great for the hair. I love the vibrant green packaging , and that it is eco-friendly. It also snaps tightly closed, so you don't have to worry about product leakage, but it also opens easily enough in the shower.

Both products are quite fruity-scented, which is nice, but I was quite excited for a coconut scent, considering it advertises coconut water. The shampoo lathers well, and rinses out well too. The conditioner also applies easily and rinses out well. However, the range wasn't as great as expected. I felt that my roots were less oily, but my ends weren't super nourished. I still had to apply serum or oil in order to have nourished, smooth, sleek hair.

Overall, while this range wasn't outstanding, it did the job and was ok. I wouldn't go out of my way to get this range, but if I desperately needed something, I would get this.

Fructis Shampoo and Conditioner

I was pleased to be able to trial the Garnier Fructis coconut water range. I have an oily scalp and dry ends and this range is particularly suitable to that type of hair issue. I like the cleaning properties of the shampoo but expected it to smell more of coconuts. It lathers up quite a bit and cleanses the scalp really well. The conditioner is thick and hydrsting, and I found that it was more coconut scented. The price point would definitely be a factor in repurchasing these products, such a good price for what it does. My hair appears to be less oily after use and I can go 1 or 2 days without cleaning again...I love that!

Tips: Shampoo twice if you have oily or product build up. Condition only the ends so that you dont overload the hair with too much hydration.

Perfect pair

The Garnier Fructis Coconut Water Shampoo and conditioner work extremely well together. I love everything about these! The nice looking green bottles look clean, natural and appealing. The easy flip top lids are great for in the shower. Garnier always produce amazing smelling shampoos and conditioner and this one is no exception and not too over powering. I’ve struggled to find a good shampoo that works on my hair as my roots are a little oily but my ends are dry and this product is perfect for me. The conditioner is easy to apply and you can feel the difference once washed out, it leaves your hair feeling nice and silky. Will definitely be buying more and recommending these to family and friends.

Love love love

I am in love!!! For starters, the packaging is beautiful, a really lovely green colour that looks clean, natural and appealing. The bottles are super easy to open which is great for wet hands in the shower. The shampoo smells amazing with a fruity yet natural scent. It has an amazing lather that really feels like it is cleaning my hair and really getting rid of all those excess oils and It washes out easily. The conditioner doesn’t have the usual strong scent that Garnier Fructis products usually do, it has more of your usual conditioner smell. This is a little disappointing, but great for those who don’t like strong scents. The conditioner applies easily, and you can feel it working from the minute its in. The next day I noticed how clean and conditioned my hair was. It felt so nice to not be struggling with dry frizzy ends and an oily scalp anymore! I also noticed my hair had a lot more ‘body’ than it usually would. I will definitely buy this product in future.

Tips: The shampoo lathers so well so dont use too much.

How They Work Together

This new duo from Garnier is paraben and silicone free, with a combination of fruit and vitamins. Garnier claims this duo will deliver healthier, stronger hair. The combination if coconut water and purifying agents is said to rebalance and clean the scalp and cleanse and hydrate the ends. The product is targeted at oily roots and dry ends.

The shampoo and conditioner don't feel quite as natural as they are marketed to be, there is a distinct chemical fragrance and the feel the same as most other shampoos and conditioners. Given the emphasis on coconut water, I expected them to be more like clear liquid and coconut scented.

In terms of performance, the shampoo lives up to its end of the bargain, doing a good job of washing away the oily roots for a few days. The conditioner is less impressive in hydrating dry ends. I would still use a serum and a deep conditioning treatment. However, this duo plus those treatments can have the same type of result as a far more expensive hair care system, so this is still a great affordable option.

The area where I felt Garnier let consumers down the most was with their Terracycle scheme. On their bottles they encourage consumers to sign up for their Terracycle scheme and make a difference to how many products are thrown in the landfill. It is a great idea and the link is provided for both New Zealand and Australia. However while the Australian link works, the New Zealand link simply says to come back in 2018. Fortunately, as the bottles are made of PET, they can be recycled in New Zealand through your weekly recycling collection.

All in all, the product is affordable and good for oily roots, but dry hair. However to deal with those dry ends you need something like a serum. But even with having to buy a serum, it can be a much more affordable hair care system than some others that have similar results.

Tips: Recycle the bottle when your done and buy a serum or deep conditioning treatment for your dry ends.

Yummy fragrance

Love the shampoo fragrance! Citrusy and delicious it smelt very natural. Wish the fragrance could have stayed on longer as the conditioner didn't seem to have as much fragrance so most of the fragrance washed out. The bottle says it is good for oily roots and dry ends which describes my hair so I was pretty excited to use this. My hair seems less oily on day 2 than the products I used before which is good (I only wash my hair every second day) I don't use conditioner on my roots as I don't want more oil/psoriasis and so I don't think this product did any worse/better than normal conditioner in terms of flyaways. I normally use a psoriasis/flaky scalp shampoo but haven't had any issues using this one with flaky skin after two uses so will continue to use, thanks! love the fact there are no parabens yet the formulation foams up so you still feel like you are getting a good wash.

Tips: Don't use conditioner on your roots if you have oily hair
