Garnier Fructis Hair Food Banana Review

I literally want to eat this as it smells so good and I love everything banana, so super stoked with this.

I jumped on the Garnier hair mask train when I saw so many of you lovelies raving about it and with it being half price I was like why the heck not (I think I paid $6.99 from Countdown).

This is so thick and creamy, so easy to apply and the tub is so flippin huge that it will last you ages.

There are 3 ways to use it which is so versatile: 1) As a straight conditioner after shampooing 2) Hair Mask while in the shower and then wash out or 3) Leave in treatment without washing

I have done all 3 and they all work really well leaving hair feeling and looking soft, silky, shiny and really healthy. Smells amazing and have had compliments each time I have used it.

Highly recommend using this hair mask as it really does what it says it is supposed to do.

My frizzy dry follicles went looking for a drink and found salvation in this smoothie-like hair mask.

Described as an "intense conditioner" for "dry hair", this Garnier Fructis Nourishing Banana Hair Food is softening, moisturising, and smells and feels like banana custard.

It is ninety-eight percent of natural origin, with no parabens, silicones (no greasy feel), and no artificial colourants.

It is fun to scoop out, in a chunky fun pottle, much more satisfying than a measly squeeze bottle dispensing a drizzle. It is a huge tub, 390ml, so offers very good value for money at $12.99 rrp. Most supermarkets sell it.

I will definitely purchase it again, as the results and the smell are bananas, as in very good.

So after trying the goji berry in this range I just had to try the banana one! I love the big tub these come in, reminds me of a yoghurt pottle. Easy to screw the lid on and off and not too fiddly to use in the shower

My favourite way to use this is as a conditioner in the shower,  I leave it on for about 5 or so minutes. It is so lovely and thick and the banana scent is so beautiful. It doesn't smell really fake and I love how it lingers in my hair. I never thought I would love smelling like bananas but I do!

It leaves my hair feeling luxuriously soft and shiny. I find I have less frizz and it takes less time to straighten my hair.

I picked this up on sale for $9 which is a great price, you can get them even cheaper when Garnier have a 50% off sale. I would certainly buy this again and I am keen to try the rest of the range.

I have long, straight, fine and frizzy hair and I don't use supermarket shampoo's or conditioners, mostly because they irritate my hands so reading the reviews that said this was just as good as a salon style conditioner I thought I'd try it out as a potential replacement for my in-shower conditioner.

As others have mentioned, this comes in a tub. It's really awkward, it takes up a lot of shelf space, you have to use both hands to hold and open the top then you have to scoop it out with your fingers and reverse the procedure while trying not to drop what's in your hands. I understand the reason behind this is because it's more for a hair mask than an in-shower conditioner so it makes sense.

My husband loved the smell of this and said it smelt good enough to eat and yes, it has a lovely, slight banana scent to it which I didn't find overpowering.

It didn't irritate my hands and left my hair feeling soft. No increase in frizz and yes, it was just as good as my salon conditioner.

However, I recently spent some time in a humid climate and this conditioner did not perform well at all. I could not let my hair down due to the incredible frizz and didn't want to walk around looking like a cavewoman. So, back to my salon conditioner.

I bought this conditioner as I was attracted to the names of the range. The smell of the banana one is heavenly. I use this conditioner as a leave in once a week. It's easy to apply after hair washing, you just apply and leave it. After drying with the leave in conditioner, my hair is super moisturised if a little greasy but after the next wash it becomes really good. You can also use this conditioner daily and rinse out.

I’ll keep this short: Easy to apply, smells incredible (completely edible) and hydrated my dry bleached ends even returned a bit of shine. Will continue to use and recommend!

I fell in love with the sound of this product reading through all the reviews. With all the different flavours I ended up buying 3 different ones to try them out.

I have long hair with lightened ends so the length is quite dry. I’ve struggled to find a nourishing conditioner that treats my ends without making my hair dull and lank. I love the versatility of this product - a conditioner, a mask and a leave-in treatment.

Of the 3 I tried (Papaya, Macadamia and Banana), this was my least favourite. The scent just seems too artificial for me, and it didn't really work well for my hair.

I tried this the 3 different way (conditioner, mask and leave-in treatment). Neither way really worked well for me, although the best was the leave-in treatment if I only applied it to the very ends of my hair. I think the issue was more with my hair than the product through - it's only the very lengths that are damaged, so this was not enough for the lengths and far too much for the roots.

After seeing all the wonderful reviews about this hair mask , I had to try it for myself. My hair type is coloured with dry ends frizzy knotty mess. I picked up my jar from Countdown. I love to sneak in hair products every now and then .

Packaging comes in a generous sized pot . Much bigger than other hair conditioning treatments . Packaging is bright coloured easy to read packaging. Twist top lid.

Consistency is creamy and white in colour thick smooth. Scent is true to Banana scent. Sweet blissful aroma of Bananas.

Application I normally massage a palm full of melts into my hair like butter. Feels silky and smooth upon rinsing out .

Afterwards my frizziness is tamed . I can get the brush through my knotty hair . I’m amazed at the result.

Overall I think price wise it’s fair. One pot lasted me three months . Generous single use per week as a treatment for my hair . Had no reactions. I still had dry ends. Not a complete miracle treatment. I would recommend trying this.

Amazing smell and texture! You get so much for your money with this product and it lasts forever!! Not sure about how much of it is working on my hair but the smell is to die for yummmmm

I use this on my daughter who has long hair that can get very knotty.. I love that it's 98% natural and that it can be used as a leave in aswell as conditioner. The amount you get in the tub it's very generous, great value for money. I find them on sale at countdown for $7 which can be very tempting for wanting to buy the lot. It has a nice thick consistency and I love that I'm not wasting product down the drain. My daughter hair looks great and healthy. These last ages and we will definitely keep buying!!
