Advantages: Very good , Feels nice

Disadvantages: Bit expensive

It’s true! It does! But then you end up looking silly especially if you have long hair like moi because you end up simply whacking people in the face with your long shiny locks! Still…I’m worth it! :o)

Anyway, I used to always walk past all Aussie products simply because firstly I thought they were a bit over priced and secondly because they have daft names like “The Mega Instant Conditioner” and “Miracle treatment in 3 minutes”. The names sounded very American and “surf dude” and hence I stuck to my trusty normal named hair care items.

One day I was shopping and in the “what can I buy to treat myself” moods and walked around aimlessly looking for my special treat. I wandered into Bodycare and stood in front of the big stock of items and that’s when I spotted the Aussie Mega Instant Conditioner. “Hmmm…shall I buy or not”. I pondered over it for a few minutes then grabbed it knowing I could stand there all day chewing over it!

It cost £2.99 for a 250ml bottle, which is ok-ish, but I find Bodycare is always a bit cheaper than other high street drug stores so it is slightly dear for an everyday conditioner especially considering other brand name conditioners cost in the region of £1.29 (Johnson’s brand). What made me buy it was the fabulous jargon at the back telling me of its Chamomile, Kelp, and Australian paw flower extracts. (The paw flower is apparently velvety to the touch so part of my pondering was whether it’s going to do the same for my hair!)

Anyway, off I trot home and use it when next I wash my hair. I read the instructions that tell me to “work through your hair and rinse with warm water. For extra shine follow with a cold rinse”. Urgh…a cold rinse…not very pleasant!! I tried anyway and shocked myself initially when the cold water blasted out of the showerhead but surprisingly my hair even wh
en wet felt nicer!

Having followed the instructions painstakingly I very excitedly couldn’t wait to see the final result! After drying my hair I did notice a very significant difference, my hair was much shinier AND velvety (well, sort of) to the touch. I sat swishing my hair initially admiring my lovely hair in the mirror...that is till my brother came in asking me what I was doing …OOPS!

I try not to use this every day as I know conditioners tend to stop working as effectively the more you use them but at the moment I can’t help myself!
I don’t cold rinse after a warn rinse because I just can’t be bothered and I haven’t noticed a difference so to all of you preferring a shower of one temperature only, miss the cold rinse out!

Overall: Although it's a wee bit expensive it's a good product and the best conditioner I've come across!Also, this is a very good conditioner to use just before you go out clubbing because then you and your hair can swish away all you want without looking bonkers!

Nice op - I tried this years ago and found it great and smelt lovely - Unfortunately when it comes to price, sometimes you get what you pay for and it worth paying a little extra to get the results you want:) Nicola
