Such a good shampoo! I don't think I've ever found a shampoo in the drugstore that is specifically dedicated for oily roots or even hair for that matter so it was great to be picked to trial this. I can definitely say that it makes a difference for my oily hair as I'll be able to go around 2 maybe even 3 days without washing whereas before I couldn't go a day without using dry shampoo to help. It also rinses well and feels pretty gentle on the scalp. The scent is also amazing! The smell lasts which is the best thing ever since theres nothing I love more than having nice smelling hair the day after you wash. I don't know if using the shampoo alone helps the ends of my hair more than any other shampoo would but the conditioner definitely does and makes brushing my hair so much easier. This shampoo is also silicone free which I had no idea what it was before and had no idea that most shampoos I had used previously included silicone. I had read that it gives the illusion of silky smooth hair but overtime it builds up in your hair which adds to the grease and weight which is terrible. I can definitely see how this shampoo has made my hair last so much longer and smoother too!

Reviews
In the past I have used only salon hair care, I usually find that supermarket ranges leave my hair feeling stripped and tangled. Finding a shampoo that can deal with oily roots and dry ends is no easy task but here it is!!
The packaging is pleasant, a mint greeny colour with an easy to open cap. The cap is different to the conditioner so you can tell them apart which is great!
The formala is nice and thick and lathers up really well, the scent is nice and fresh, not overpowering and gender neutral.
Here is the best bit, I trialed this with and without the pre shampoo clay mask and even without the mask the shampoo did a truly awesome job!! I have oily roots and never get a good second day out of a wash... until now! My hair quite genuinely was as good the second day as the day of washing, I even managed to draw out a third day with my hair tied up!!
Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. I will absolutely repurchase.
Tips: Great with and without the clay mask!
Like many of the other people using this range, I have oily roots and dry ends. When choosing a shampoo, remove the oil from my scalp while still leaving my ends hydrated. After using this product for two weeks, I definitely feel like this shampoo meets those requirements.
The full price of this product at Countdown is $5.50 and you get 250ml.
After washing out the clay mask, I applied this shampoo on my hair. I washed my hair all over, but really focussed on working the shampoo into my scalp. The shampoo foamed really nicely, so my hair felt clean after I washed it out. A little amount of product went a long way. The smell was my favourite part of this product. It's difficult to describe exactly what it smelt like, but it was very refreshing. It washed out easily and my hair didn't feel like it still had residue on it.
After blow drying, my hair felt light and hydrated. It also looked shiny and smelt amazing. Combined with the other products in this range, I went five days before my hair was oily enough to need a wash again. So this range definitely works!
I purchased Loreal Paris Elvive Extraordinary Clay shampoo for my dry and damaged hair. It feels good while shampooing as it gives a soft and silky touch. But when my wet hair are dried, they look the same as before. I used it for like 2 months to see if it will make a difference but NO. This shampoo might work for many other people as I surely trust this brand.
Tips: I believe it's not necessarily the shampoo which we should blame, but I think we should also get some hair treatments done for our particular hair problem.
I have very oily hair, I typically must wash my hair everyday if not every other day at the most. By the next day my hair is greasy, oily and just doesn’t look clean. I love the colour of the bottle and the scent is very fresh and delicious. The scent reminds me of other loreal shampoos that I have tried. The texture of the shampoo is like any other shampoo. I only needed to use a small amount of the shampoo each time I washed my hair. It lathers up very well and it leaves your hair feeling very clean. My hair felt very smooth and shiny after I had rinsed out all the shampoo. I really think that it helped with my oiliness and prolonged how long I needed to wash my hair. I think I will definitely be using this shampoo again
Tips: Only use a small amount.
I use to have a number 1 shampoo but this is now my number 1 i applyed this after the loreal paris extraordinary clay mask pre shampoo (Reveiw for this is in the Loreal paris elvive extraordinary clay detox pre shampoo ). This was awesome it has a good consistency for a shampoo the colour is cool it is a shiny pearl grey with a hint of blue once you start massaging your scalp, it foams up like crazy i loved it so much, so maybe use a little kaus a little can definitely go a long way i then left that in for a couple mins not to long then washed it out my hair felt good normally it can get abit dry feeling after shampooing but not with this, i then applyed the conditioner and the results were the best.(Review for this is also in the Loreal paris extraordinary clay detox Conditioner).
I really like the smell of this shampoo, it reminds me alot of a watermelon scent. The shampoo is nice and thick and lathers up well so I didn't need alot for my long hair. Also it didn't dry my hair out like I thought it would, it focused on removing the oils from my scalp and I was able to go 3 days without having to wash my hair which was amazing. I have already used it twice and am so glad I found a product that works so well in my hair. I will definitely be purchasing again!
I was fortunate to be apart of the beauty team trial for this product. I really love the shampoo, you don't need to apply a lot as this lathers up sooooooooo much. Smells awesome and leaves my hair feeling nice and clean afterwards. I can defiantly see this shampoo becoming my go to. Easily one of the best supermarket shampoos I've tried. Works really well with the conditioner to give you shiny, healthy hair!
My scalp is naturally oily and I cant go a day without washing my hair. I've gone through many shampoo/conditioner duo brands in the hope to find a product that would break this cycle and was really really thrilled to be selected for this trial/review. I received the entire hair care regime in the clay range, including the pre-shampoo mask, shampoo, conditioner as well as the dry shampoo.
The shampoo I found, lathers well and is easy to apply and wash off. I followed the instructions and applied to roots to wash off excess oil and then followed with conditioner, applying from mid-length to roots. After towel drying, I blow dried my hair and noticed how bouncy and voluminous its looked and smelled amazing! The next morning I was able to heat style my hair with ease. Even after a night’s sleep, my hair was silky and manageable. Usually, by mid-day my hair would start to feel weighed down, and limp and by end of day it will definitely start to feel eeky. But it surprisingly still felt and looked great so I didn’t wash it and the next morning I just lightly heat styled and soldiered through another day. My hair did start to feel bit heavy & greasy towards the end of second day and I wasn’t game enough to leave it off for another day so washed it that night. The verdict - L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Clay Shampoo works well in reducing oiliness from your scalp, helping you to go longer without washing your hair. With just shampoo and conditioner, I was able to go for two days without a hair wash, and by using the pre-shampoo mask, I could go 3. And in between washes, I would maintain “freshness” and lightweight hair by using the dry shampoo.
I have oily roots but believe there is a fine line between having natural oils in your hair and stripping these oils out completely. Therefore I don't wash my every day and try find this balance. I had used the first step in the clay system (mask) and moved onto the shampoo. Nice to handle the bottle although I had to look twice to make sure I had the shampoo rather than conditioner. They do sit opposite ends up, so confidence to grab without looking will grow. The great scent greeted you when you opened it. Sort of fruity? I wasn't sure how much to use for our hard water - I used too much! Suds everywhere! I got rather over lathered and then got some in my eyes. Man it stung! But the overall effect was lovely clean hair after just one later up. My hair has remained soft and oil free for three days now.
Tips: Just use a little to start with. A little goes a long way - making this a very inexpensive product for such a specialised application.
