On the fence

I really don't know which way to go with this Shampoo as I love the scent 'salon fresh', the packaging - beautiful aqua blue and the price is definitely affordable and best of all it does make my hair feel less oily at the roots and refreshed BUT not for 72 hours. I would say that I get 2 days MAX without the oily feeling returning and that is heightened if I then add the Dry Shampoo from this range. Even if I use the Clay pre-shampoo mask it's only a good 2 days, which I suppose is better than the 1 day I would normally get..although I would like to test that result with the shampoo alone without the pre-mask.

The most noticeable difference I found when using this product during my shower routine is that my hair definitely felt dryer in the stage between rinsing and applying the conditioner.

Would I use this again...yes I most likely will...but does it do as it claims...not fully.

Elvive Extraordinary clay shampoo

My first impression of this shampoo was that I love the colour! It has a nice pleasant scent to it that's not too strong.

This shampoo has quite a thick texture that as I discovered foams up a lot so you don't need to use as much as you'd expect. It goes on the hair and mixes in well and was easy to rinse out. I was quite impressed with how soft and clean my hair felt after, even before using conditioner. It felt light and fresh which I was pleased about. Overall I really liked this shampoo and would definitely purchase it again. I used it both with the clay mask and also without. It did leave my hair feeling fresher and less oily but did not last 72 hours as claimed.

Tips: Don't use too much, it lathers up like crazy

Shampoo

I received this product as part of the Extraordinary Clay range for a BR Trial. As like the other products, it's a standard bottle of shampoo (like others from their elvive range) which is solid and you get 250ml of product. The product also smells the same as all the rest which is a clean refreshing smell which isn't too strong.

The shampoo feels a bit thicker than other shampoos I've used which feels really nice through my hair. The shampoo makes my hair feel really clean & followed with the conditioner my hair is really soft and smooth.

The results I had from using the whole range were really good & lasted a good 3 days!

Just an average shampoo

I'm feeling like a negative Nellie about this entire range (which I'm grateful to BR for sending to me!) To keep it brief: The pros: *It cleanses my hair. Hair is left feeling super clean and nourished. In conjunction with the clay mask, my hair felt clean * It smells nice. * A little bit of shampoo goes a long way (when used in conjunction with the mask) * It's a super affordable range ($5.50 ish for a 250ml bottle) * It's easily available

Cons * My hair was left quite fluffy * My hair had an unusual amount of flyaways * It did not keep my oily roots at bay - my hair is just as oily as it always is, maybe, just maybe, more oily...!

On balance, I'm not a fan of this range, I think there's better product out there that do a better job - I prefer the red L'oreal Elvive range, which I've used on and off for a few years.

Perfect For Oily Hair

I have recently started using this shampoo to try calm down my oily hair, in hoping my hair would stay fresh and dry on top for longer without having to wash it all the time or pulling out the dry shampoo.

After a couple weeks of using this I have noticed a MASSIVE difference in the oil production of my hair. It has reduced by a lot, meaning I barely have to touch my dry shampoo anymore :)

I use this with the clay conditioner and it works great.

The only thing I would say is a downfall, is that the ends of my hair aren't very hydrated like it claims, but in saying this I do not look after my ends as much as I should.

Perfect and affordable shampoo for anyone trying to combat greasiness.

Tips: Use with the matching conditioner for optimum results.

My new must have

So glad I got to review this. The shampoo is AMAZING! It is effective, it smells amazing, and it's an affordable price point. The bottle says you'll get 72 hours of gorgeous hair, but I've got it an extra day or two more without seeing the greasy, oily mess that used to greet me. Other shampoos have over-stripped my hair, leaving me with fizzy bits and frizz (also, new Mums will get me here - those awful baby hairs that you get round your forehead from the post-partum hair loss. They used to full-on frizz, but not with this!).

This shampoo left me with a very, very, slight halo of hair, but nothing a quick spritz of hairspray couldn't fix - and even then, not really needed. It didn't weigh down the ends either. I've also found using other dedicated oily hair products that my hair got tangled and knotted. This time, nothing. So easy to brush and I didn't wake up with a bird's nest in my hair.

Just beautifully clean, healthy hair and scalp.

Tips: A little goes a long way!

LOREAL PARIS EXTRAORDINARY CLAY DETOX SHAMPOO.

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).

72hrs of fresh hair?

I was able to test this product for a week and I can totally vouch that this product is really effective and true to its claims.

I used this and tried not to wash my hair for a total of 3 days! Can you imagine that? I was so impressed because I actually wash my hair every other day. I'm planning to keep this shampoo and definitely repurchase when I finished the bottle.

I don't think this shampoo is suitable for colored hair because the formula gets really foamy even with little product. Foamy shampoo don't actually suit colored hair because the color will fade quickly.

Being foamy is actually not a bad thing, it's actually good if you don't have colored hair because this is a thrifty shampoo. A little goes a long way with this product.

Tips: Use the pre-shampoo clay before using the shampoo

Great Shampoo if you have Oily Hair

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!

L'Oreal Paris Extraordinary Clay Shampoo

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.
