Bought 2 when on a deal with Countdown upon a friend's recommendation for my curly ( type-3C) hair. First off, the smell is amazing, quite strong and fruity. the hair food is much thicker and creamier than a normal conditioner! All the ingredients are natural and you can definitely tell it is a great product from the texture! For me personally, I did not enjoy using it as a conditioner but found it to be the most PERFECT hair mask! It sets your hair up really well and a small amount of this applied works really for a lot of hair! If you want to define or create curls, this is the perfect setting hair food! It made my hair so soft and so smooth (I often use straighteners!!) - it really seals in the moisture and makes your stronger and appear shiny and healthy! Created a beautiful bounce to my hair!

Tips: Buy 2 tubs if you are going to use this as a conditioner as it will go really quickly! If you are looking for hair mask, one tub should be fine for starters! :)
This smells amazing feels really nice on my hair I have used this as a conditioner and leave in however my hair it blonde and has heat damage so I have noticed any change in the condition of my hair I also have the watermelon one this too smells great and both have a nice thick consistency I think for the price they are a fantastic hair product
Got caught up in the marketing hype behind this product and also the fact that it looked and smelt so delicious. Nice and thick upon application. Unfortunately it was too heavy for my hair and left it feeling greasy and unwashed. My teen daughter who has completely different hair texture to me also found her results the same so we did not finish the product.
This will not be your savior, If your hair is already split and frizzy etc. it cannot bring it back. However, if your hair is already in good condition i think it helps hydrate and soften. The smell is also amazing!! always get compliments after I do a mask with this. I use this product mostly as an overnight hair mask and sometimes as a leave-in conditioner. I would love to eventually replace this product with something that gives a more dramatic result, however for the price point i'm happy with this.
Tips: brush through hair with fingers and leave overnight for weekly hair mask
Brought for my son , big fan of banana ..and thought I'd try it too I've tried it as a leave in conditioner. I'll admit I'm not q fan of the smell but it seems to be a great leave in I'd probably use it again.
I love using hair foods, they're so amazing and leave my hair so luscious and silky. The scent on this one is so amazing and stays all day! It's a fresh smell and is so yummy.
The product overall is so good and i definitely recommend.
Absolutely loved this product. The feel the smell the container the result. Value for money is soooo groovy!!+!my hair looks like its been to the salon for a wash after i use this i reckon anyway!!love it
I purchased this from Countdown as I was wanting something for my hair to help the frizz. It definitely does help to make my hair smoother but doesn't remove all frizz. I use this is my daughters hair also, and my husband is now using it for his beard as he says it hydrates it. The smell is good, it's not too intense which I like. The tub makes it easy to take the amount you need
Tips: Wash your hands after
My youngest girl has heavy, long, thick curly hair, it is stunning, but she has really struggled to find appropriate masks and conditioners for it. This one is perfect for her, and she swears by it being one of the only things to keep her hair moisturised. But not so much for fine hair, as it is too heavy for my middle girl's hair
Tips: As above, a definite must for curly or thick hair, but may be too heavy for fine or flyaway hair
Smells like banana - delicious! Although if you don't like fragrance this isn't for you because it's quite a strong smell.
You can use this as a regular conditioner, hair mask or a leave in. I think it's so great that this can be used for more than one thing. I used it mostly as a hair mask a few times a week.
It's very moisturizing without weighing down your hair, which is something I loved. I found it really helped moisturize my dry ends but wasn't too heavy.
Loved how much you get in the container, how easy it is to find in the shops, and that it's cruelty free with mostly natural ingredients. This paired really well with the banana shampoo bar and helped keep dry frizziness at bay for me.
Love my hair smelling like banana.
Tips: I used a wide toothed comb to spread this product evenly throughout my hair, focusing on the lengths/ends rather than the scalp to avoid greasiness at the roots.
