Garnier Fructis Hair Food Goji Review

I bought this after hearing so many rave reviews from influencers and the likes, it was a great hair mask at an amazing price point! You got tonnes of product, so definitely bang for buck and really lovely smell. After washing off, it gives me a great shine and nourishment.

Having previously tried the Macadamia flavoured hair food, I thought I would try another flavour in the range. The Goji one is specifically for coloured hair. My hair is lightened, so it is colour treated. This hair food claims that it: “Revives radiance of coloured hair and protects from damage, leaving hair vibrant and healthy. Nourish hair with no weigh down.

The Garnier hair food claims to be 98% of natural origin and to not contain any: parabens, silicones, or artificial colourants. The label also says it can be used as a conditioner, a mask, or as a leave-in treatment. The hair food comes in a big 390ml tub. The Goji one has a red label on a cream-coloured plastic tub with a red lid. The lid is easy to unscrew. The product itself is a thick, creamy-coloured cream. It has a very pleasant fruity scent, which is not too strong. It is easy to apply; all you have to do is dip your hands into it, scoop out some product, and massage it into your hair. It rinses out well too.

I have very fine, dry hair. Something that nourishes my hair without weighing it down is ideal. Because I want maximum moisture without added weight, so far I have only used this as a hair mask, but it has been working very well. Not only does it smell delicious, but it has been leaving my hair feeling intensely hydrated, softer and smoother looking. You do not need to apply much product either, and with such a large tub, it is great value for money. I am really enjoying using this hair food. I plan on trying all the flavours eventually.

It’a my first time hair to try a hair mask and what a fabulous surprise. Water melon in the shower is delightful and the product is fun to try. Better than that, its easy to apply and after leaving it in for a while, rinsed out smoothly. My fine, long, silver hair has reacted well. It feels thicker, volume-boosted and definitely very silky. I’ve used it several days in a row, after shampooing and condition and also on its own. I am very impressed. The only snag I can think of is the container which is a bit of a pain to unscrew with wet hands and rather wide for a narrow ledge. But hey, worth it for a fantastic product and non-frizz, easy to manag hair

I was very excited to try this product as I regularly colour my hair and it is very dry and frizzy. First off, it comes in a huge container so there is lots of it, should last you a while. Second, I just love the smell of the berries, is very summery and the smell does linger in my hair. I tried this first as a conditioner, you don't need a lot as it is quick thick and a little goes a long way. My preferred method is as a mask, left in in my hair for about five minutes after shampooing and conditoning . I finger combed it through and then rinsed. My hair was very silky afterwards and is not feeling as dry. Even after a few days before shampooing again it still looks shiny and is not greasy at all. I would definitely use this again as I am sure my hair is just soaking it up and the results show. Hair is easy to straighten and looks a lot healthier.

Heads up...bit of a salon snob here. Only because I have tape in extensions, so I try to buy the best products to look after them. Which usually means the more expensive products. Sigh.

Goji was the perfect flavour for me - protects from damage. Well - bleach processing and heat styling would definitely make me a good candidate for a protective treatment.

The pot is HUGE. Bigger than usual hair mask tubs. It looks really cool, like an organic ice cream or something. Tubs are a bit problematic in the shower, but I just leave it out of the stream of water, so its no real drama.

The product is a very thick cream, but also seems a bit aerated, not quite a mousse, but not a heavy, dense cream if that makes sense? It smells gorgeous!

So my hair/extensions are to my mid back. I needed maybe 2 x 50c size dollops for a deep condition. Very good going!

As a conditioner I found it instantly smoothed my hair, and my hair after was manageable and easy to style. As an intensive treatment I left it in for about an hour. After rinsing my hair was ridiculously soft and shiny - it felt like silk!

The price is great, especially for the size of the tub. You'll get months of use out of it.

The only reason I haven't given it full marks is I was hoping for less fluffy hair. I definitely need serum after use to tame the fluffies.

Other than that - I really like this supermarket find!

I have tried the Banana one and the one in the orange container. This one smells really good it could be my new favourite! I like combining some with the banana one sometimes. Unsure if I'm imagining it but it doesn't seem as rich as the others but for a first timer of the hair food range you may feel you need a bit more anyway. I find a bit goes a long way if you leave it in a wee while before reaching for more. The scent lingers in your hair which is great and this is a multiple use product. I use it as my regular conditioner as I like that it is silicone free. Silicone and or diamenthicone is is all cheap conditioners and loads of other cosmetics such as primer and moisturizers. It builds up in the hair as it doesn't fully wash out with out harsh soaps this can help lock moisture in but doesn't provide much hydration or nourishment it more masks the appearance of unhealthy hair by smoothing and sealing with a coating. The Garnier hair food range will actually help make your hair healthy I've been using it for probably over a year now. I really love the scent of this one it's sweet just like the other two I've tried but a bit more fresh and lighter. I recently re done my hair blonde so it's quite damaged. I am hooked on the hair food range and will continue to purchase. I look out for when it comes on special. As far as protection of your hair colour I can't really comment as my hair was already blonde but If I did have another colour in my hair I would probably go for a silicone or diamenthicone product in conjunction with this to really lock the colour in I think dye will wash out easier with silicone free or diamenthicone free conditioners. I can't wait to trial the aloe Vera variety

It has a divine fragrance, goes a long way too, even with my long hair , it is also good because of its natural ingredients used . Can build up if you leave as a leave in conditioner. But really helped with my condition of my hair and flyaways too

Goji is my Favorite smelling Hair Food. Compared to the Banana & Papaya Hair Foods I would say this has the least slip and is the least moisturizing - which is perfect for my fine Wavy/Curly hair as this one is the best as its not as heavy as the others. The packaging is a bit annoying in the shower - but since you get so much product at such a great price its is a small price to pay!

Before even opening the packet I could already smell how good it was! I love that it not only smells good but it's 98% natural! This is such a versatile product that doesn't weigh your hair down. I also love how it can be used three different ways.
