Garnier Fructis Hair Food Macadamia Review

I just loved how you can use this product 3 different ways, a normal conditioner, a leave in treatment or a hair mask as well as the fact it is 98% natural origin. I tried all 3 ways but have to say the hair mask was my absolute fave!!! I used the Garnier Fructis Hair Food Macadamia along with my Fructis Sleek & Shine shampoo or the shampoo & conditioner combo (got hooked on this after trying it via Beauty Review!) depending on what treatment I was doing. While using as any of the 3 your hair is left smelling absolutely yummo and feels as well as looks more settled, but I found using it as a hair mask the best for me as when I let my hair naturally dry it still kept the curl looking soft as well as together and controlled instead of the annoying little halo of static frizz I still got a bit of normally as well as keeping the curl well controlled even after a couple of days. My hair feels even more healthy and soft and I just love having no frizz after using this. I totally recommend this to anyone with a bit of frizz to their hair or has curls that go a bit out of control because you will love it and not want to part with it once you start!

I absolutely loved trying this Hair Food. Now I feel like it is a must have for me. There's no turning back now.

I like how it comes in a jar type container. Its easy to access and I am in control of how much product I am getting out and using so there is hardly any waste during application. A little goes a long way which is awesome. The product itself smells bloody delicious! I'm very impressed of how it smells. I have used this as a hair mask, conditioner and a leave in treatment and each time I have had the best results. My hair is left super soft, healthy, nourished and smoothe.

I completely recommend giving this a go and Im going to buy and try more flavors ( flavors, smells, hair food)

Ok. I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover...but I was totally expecting big things from the Garnier Hair Food. Was it the super-cute packaging? The 98% natural claim? The fact that it just looks like it'll be a miracle for your hair?

My first impressions of the tub in real life were overwhelmingly positive. It looks like something you'd pick up in your organic food store. Its just got that natural, 'good' vibe about it. Loads of info on the packaging, no 'extra' packaging like a box or plastic disc under the lid. It looks as simple and clean as it could be.

I do have a few issues with the tub format - water does get in there if you're using it in the shower. But it does make it easy to get the product out I suppose.

I first used it as a conditioner after shampooing. It is so thick and creamy I wanted to start off sparingly, just because my thick hair holds on to product like a sponge.

As a conditioner its simply wonderful. It spreads easily, it rinses well and it leaves hair soft and smooth. My hair is ombred and the ends were looking a bit knackered and I am prone to frizz. After drying and styling, my god my hair was so soft. I felt like Monica from Friends. You know that glossy, frizz free hair? It even straightened easier than usual.

As an intensive mask this is brilliant, but don't be tempted to use more than you would when conditioning. I went a bit slap-happy putting it on as a mask and it was more difficult to rinse.

As a 'leave-in' it was a bit of a fail for me. My hair felt icky and tacky.

The softening and smoothing effects last at least 2-3 days. The gorgeous scent lasts at least 24 hours.

The price for the mask is great, and I think it'd make a lovely gift too.

I'll definitely be trying other flavours - Banana is next on my list!!

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 it dull and lank.

I love the versatility of this product - a conditioner, a mask and a leave-in treatment.

The Macadamia one is by far my favourite. While the scent isn’t amazing, the love is shows my hair is! I use this weekly as a mask and then a small amount on the very ends as a leave-in treatment. My hair ends up soft and shiny and bouncy. I only wish the scent was something a little more - maybe cocoa butter scent would enhance it

I love love loveee this for my hair since I've had it cut my curls have come through and this not only helps nourish my hair but also I feel like it helps my curls be more curly and bouncy!

I also always find that if my hair is slightly knotted when I wash it that this will help relax my hair and I'll get out of the shower to completely untangled hair!

I use it all the ways that it says and alternate depending on my hairs needs that wash..

Backstory: I have VERY dry hair AND skin, so anything that claims to help is an instant “let’s try it” from me. I do dye my hair often, so that’s going to affect things a bit. This product is one of my favourites when it comes to conditioner. It comes in a sizeable pot, lots of instructions on the packaging and recyclable. The consistency is good, you don’t need a whole lot for just-below-shoulder length hair. A pot like this will last me a month, whereas a bottle lasts me usually two weeks or so. I love, love, LOVE that you can use it 3 ways. Conditioner, mask, or leave in* but read packaging for info on that. The product smells good, not unpleasant, but not overpowering. As for results, as previously mentioned, I have very dry hair and do dye my own hair once every two months or so, so I’m not surprised that I still suffer some dryness after using. That being said, there was an improvement for sure. I noticed more shine, more volume, and less frizz. It wasn’t a fix-all, but it would have to be an absolute miracle at this point. I would use again and again and again.

I have about 3 of these and I use them after every shower while my hair is wet and it makes my hair so soft and shiny and leaves the best scent. I personally like this flavour the most. It is a really nice scent and just leaves my hair looking flawless every time

The tub is a very generous size and will last a long time. The smell was pleasant and it did leave hair feeling soft and manageable. However it did not wow me like some other products have done before.

I was so excited to trial this product due to my hair needing to anti frizz as it has got out of control but I just want wanting to cut it as I love the length so I tried this as soon as I received it at first I used it as a mask for my hair I shampooed and conditioned then applied the mask and left in for the 1 minute it stated I then rinsed it out and I have to say the smell was not pleasant at all it smelt like wet bark I couldn't wait to rinse it out and o was dressing what my hair was going to smell like because I this I towered dried my hair it felt nice but not silky smooth like when u have filled your hair up with silicon based products and I have to say the smell was ok after that I let my hair dry naturally and it looked promising but my hair continued to frizz the drier it got so my 2nd 3rd 4th etc attempts went ok just the smell really hits a bad note with me I dont think I would choose to buy this macadamia 1 again but would look at the rest of the range as each time I have used it it has made a difference in my hairs manageability so i would recommend to shop round all the different 1s within this range and find the right 1 for u i love love love it is all natural that is awesome I used it in all 3 ways as a conditioner a mask and as a leave in I found as a xonditer and a mask it does the trick just found it abit heavy to use as a leave in on my hair and I couldn't have the full force of the smell of it on me like that
