This had a lovely fragrance and felt thick and luxurious when applied. I used it as a conditioner and tried to leave it in my hair for 2-3 minutes to get the full benefits. It left my hair feeling shiny and it was easy to brush my hair after washing... yay, no knots! I love that it's nice and natural and the fact that it has three uses means I'll definitely be buying this again!

Reviews
I have tried Garnier Fructis hair food previously but I hadn’t tried the watermelon scent and I hadn’t tried it as a wash out conditioner.
I have previously tried Garnier hair food as a leave-in conditioner, which I love, as it leaves my hair feeling extremely soft and nourished.
This time around I also tried it as a wash out conditioner along with the watermelon shampoo bar. I love the watermelon scent and it still leaves my hair feeling soft, even when it’s used as a wash out conditioner.
We don’t have a great deal of shelf space in our shower so it was a bit tricky using it without filling up the container with water but I’ve since had a little product rearrangement and now it’s all sorted.
I love that the Garnier Fructis hair food can be used in three different ways. I find I use it differently depending on how my hair is looking/feeling. It definitely leaves my hair looking/feeling softer than any other leave-in conditioner I have used.
The extra bonus is that it doesn't contain silicones and it uses 97% natural origin ingredients.
I would totally recommend Garnier Fructis hair food conditioner, and its partner, the hair food shampoo bar. The watermelon scent is lovely, but there are also many other amazing hair food scents in the range - the macadamia is a firm favourite in our house.
I was very lucky to be selected for the trial of Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon and Garnier Hair Food Shampoo Bar – Watermelon therefore my results are the combination of both products working together.
The first thing I noticed with this product is the strong watermelon fragrance. That got me worried because sometimes strong perfumes give me headaches. Yes, every one at home knows when I have washed my hair because of the nice aroma in the bathroom but my hair only had a subtle aroma, just the fresh smell but nothing overpowering so no headaches, yeah!
The product can be used in three different ways: as a mask, intense conditioner or leave-in treatment. I only used it as a conditioner and I am happy with the results. My hair feels nice, soft and no grease at all as sometimes happens with some conditioners.
The product comes in a huge container so it is a good price as it is going to last for a while.
The only thing I don’t like about Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon is the container. As I mention before it is huge and when you have a small shower, it is a bit of struggle to get the product without the container getting water inside. It could be great if it could come in a pump bottle then it would have the five stars. Apart from that, I would definitely recommend Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon.
I was using the Garnier Fructis Hair Food Watermelon as a conditioner - though there were options to leave on as a treatment or even leave altogether.
I paired this conditioner with the matching soap based shampoo.
I massaged mainly into the ends of my hair, and rubbed residue on my hands to my hair closest to my scalp.
My hair is long and fine, I found this conditioner just right and left my hair nice and soft plus in great condition.
I had no problem getting a brush (Tangle Teaser) through my hair after towel drying.
Just like the matching shampoo bar, I am not convinced that I would have picked that the aroma was watermelon, but it wasn’t overpowering.
The only issue I found was as the container was quite round in shape, there wasn’t a lot of room on the shower shelf!
Arriving in a very round tub with bright labelling, caught my eye with three uses, three uses I quizzed myself, I can get rid of three? Cracking the lid open I smelt the wonderful scent of watermelon the white cream glaring up at me I couldn’t wait to try all three uses! As a mask, my hair soaked happily in it, leaving a fully smooth rejuvenated look, as leave in conditioner it refreshed my hair left a great scent and didn’t dry out, as a conditioner I had silky smooth hair that looked great when blow dried. The container it arrived in appears plastic but then it is recyclable, eased my mind, the tub is very round and I think that could be smaller and stubby, overall this conditioner beat hands down my three existing products, it is easy to rinse out, leaves no residue and even your hands feel great after using it.
Tips: Compliment with a shower bar for more clean, use as a mask once a week, and spit brighten your day with a leave in conditioner every two days for optimal shine.
If you love the smell of watermelon, then you will love this product - it smells devine! AND, it also works. I have medium thickness long hair and my daughters have thick long hair and thin long hair - but this product is really nice on all of us. It leaves our hair shiny, soft and smelling gorgeous. We have all used it as both a conditioner in the shower and a leave in conditioner as well. Great product.
I’ll be honest, I purchased this without reading that it was for fine hair so I was shocked when it worked on my thick, heavy hair! I have been using this as a mask, and more recently as a leave in treatment and love the volume and lightness it gives my hair. My hair doesn’t feel limp and weighed down, and actually looks like I’ve taken the time to blow dry it nicely to give it volume. I’ll be buying another tub once this eventually runs out!
I love love this stuff, I use it as my regular conditioner. It has a great scent, which lingers on the hair all day after washing. It's also smoothing without being heavy!
Tips: Make sure you keep it to the ends, as it's a bit heavy for roots. The packaging isn't my favourite to use in the shower, so I recommend keeping it on a shelf not in direct water spray so you can open and close it better.
My daughter is 13 and never had a hair cut due to cultural reasons so I needed to find something really good for her hair. This does everything it is meant too. We use as a leave in treatment. I love the fact it's over 90% natural, it smells like you could eat it and it's cruelty free.
Tips: We leave in overnight and water out in the morning.
Loved using this product. The pot is easy in the shower. Only need a small amount to make your hair feel nice and silky. Has a nice scent too. Used together with the Garnier Frutis soap bar is a great combination
