Haute Kutir's Experience

Hair type: dark brown, wavy, normal to dry, Below shoulder length.

I have a history of not so good experience using Garnier hair care products. So when I received these free samples from Garnier PR team, I was unsure of whether trying it or no. I was supposed to attend Lakme Fashion Week and the last thing I wanted to risk was my hair, hence I refrained trying it that time and reserved it later for a relatively chilled day when I may not have to attend many functions.

My new shampoo from L'Oreal Professional through managed my hair well but was not helping dandruff which was on the high crawl. My scalp was very dry and itchy and I wanted to apply some raw curd to see if that settles my woe. So one of these weekends, in bid to lessen dandruff, I oiled my hair with Castor Oil and Olive Oil from Soul flower. You can read it's a review on my blog later.

Post oiling and 20 minutes before washing, I applied sour curd on my hair and the sight were not too exciting but yeah comforting. Indeed testing time for Garnier Fructis. I took a deep plunge of faith and washed my hair only to feel the soft, untangled and well behaved. Yeah! I said well behaved.

Though the product instructions asked to apply conditioner on the scalp, I avoided doing so except very mild application over the scalp hair and not scalp. The effect was good.

I did not want to bring down my review with just one usage, so I tried this shampoo at least 3-4 more times. With less oil and again with less curd. My experience turned out to be good. Maybe that's what transpired me to try this shampoo again. So next time I tried applying it on upper hairs excluding scalp. Even then, my scalp didn't feel oily and rather was, exuberant, with volume.

What I liked about the product-

1) The shampoo and conditioner and not very thick, nor too runny

2) The scent is not very strong but mild
3) It did not ward off all the oils in the first 2 washes from my hair so that means it is quite mild
4) The Ingredient mix- Olive, coconut and Almond

What I did not like about the product
1) It did not wash the oil even on repeat shampoo
2) Nothing much in particular

Final verdict: I was not a great fan of Garnier Shampoos. however, this one was quite better for the lot. During and post-wash, I got a smooth feel. Dandruff is not troubling my scalp as much though the shampoo does not claim to settle them. Maybe it did not help aggravate it. My first 4 wash experience had been good. My hair felt smooth and good and most importantly in shape and non-itchy [may be the curd and castor oil worked]

I am not sure if my hair becomes stronger but yes, they indeed look healthy and more manageable with each wash. Way to go Garnier. 

Do I Recommend?
Yes but suit yourself. Try the pouch packs first and in case, you find your hair in better shape post-wash, you can go for the full bottle.

The conditioner is quite effective too and even a little of it does its job well.

The products sent were part of PR samples however, they bore no influence on my review. All the product reviews on Haute Kutir are basis the user experience and not influenced by brands without merit.
