Advantages: ummm................errrr ......................... .....

Disadvantages: grease/expense/residue/yo u'll have to rince and shampoo with something else after use!

Only use this product if you want your hair to resemble a chip pan/oil slick!

Picture this:(and think of a 999 style Micheal Burk commentry!)

It was a sunny afternoon when the victim of this tragic mishap walking into her local superdrug. Whilst hummimg and ha-ing about the cheapest, but decent looking shampoo she could buy, she happened apon a luminous green bottle glowing from the corner of her eye. She walked to the dreaded bottle, saw the half price offer sticker beneath, then pondered over to the counter whilst thinking of the things she could use her extra pound saving with.(Yes I know I'm cheap but I'm a student, nuff said.)

The next morning before college she took a shower and washed her hair with the said product after rinsing she dryed her hair with a towel( sorry this is getting a bit tedious I'll get to the point now!)

After blow drying my hair I looked in the mirror and saw............OIL SLICK! My hair literally looked as if I'd used way too much styling wax and was so greasy at the roots whilst the rest of my hair was covered in some icky residue.

Apparently this is due to that fruit formula thing that they are trying to sell the product on in adverts. People who wash their hair alot(I have to wash mine every day as it's soo fine and will get greasy) will know that after using a same shampoo for a long time, you can get a slight residue, which is remedied by switching shampoos every so often. But fructis left me with more of a grease pit than bed head.

All in all my advice is don't buy this product, I thought the half price offer was too good to be true!

I agree 100% with this opinion - the result for me was somewhere between and oilslick and clingfilm on my (very fine hair). Funnily enough I also got the same results with Elvive shampoo (I can't remember which one exactly, but it comes in a green bottle). The really annoying thing is that you then have to buy super strength detox shampoo to get rid of it. Never again.

Oopsy, you've been had! I pay only £1.58 at Asda for 250 ml bottle! However thats not much good if the product doesn't suit you! I personally love it!
