Advantages: works well, good price, a brand you can trust, smells good

Disadvantages: None.

With naturally curly hair, it is only expected that I would have hard to control frizz to go along with it. I have tried many a product that claims to tame frizz but with very few successes. Some may tame frizz but leave your hair looking greasy despite having just been washed and others barely making a difference to the frizz. I rarely find a product that I am satisfied with in terms of taming my frizz. One product I have been impressed with is this Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine shampoo and conditioner.

** Garnier **
Fructis is the name of the hair care range by Garnier providing shampoo and conditioner for every hair type sot there is bound to be something to suit you. Garnier believe that their market is the self-confident woman who seeks to improve her appearance. Which I guess is true but I don't think your level of self-confidence is going to determine whether you pick up a bottle of shampoo or not...

Garnier also provide products for your face, body, deodorant, sun protection and hair colouring.

** Sleek and Shine **
The sleek and shine range is produced specifically to make your hair feel smooth, sleek and without frizz. They claim that the added fruit oils nourish the hair from root to tip to achieve this. The results it claims to give are: anti-humidity, heat protection, super shine, soft-to-touch, flowing style.

** Frizz Free? **
Like I say, there are very few hair products that I have found have been successful in taming my frizz. My frizz is very stubborn, a bit like myself actually. However, like me there are some people that can come round and change my mind. This is what this shampoo and conditioner combo is like.

On first using it you can smell the fresh, fruity smell. It does not smell too sweet or artificial, just the right balance and makes your hair smell nice and fresh even once its dry. It is probably one of my favourite hair smells.

You do not need to use much of the shampoo to get much of a lather. The lather feels lovely and smooth and definitely doesn't feel like a cheap product. The smell of the product fills the shower as you massage it in. This is similar to the conditioner, you can feel your hair instantly softer when you apply it.

Once your hair is dry (as my hair is curly I leave my hair to dry itself) you are left with soft, smooth and indeed with limited frizz. I don't think anything could get rid of all my frizz but this definitely got rid of at least 95% of it. Which is a good bit more than anything else would. I have never been so impressed with a shampoo and conditioner in taming my frizz. And I have tried a lot of products aimed at reducing frizz.

** Price and Availability **
You can find this shampoo and conditioner at many stores selling beauty products, such as big chains like Boots and bargain stores such as Home Bargains. Shop around and you can find a good deal. I have always paid between £1 and £1.25 per bottle.

** Overall **
Overall, I have been nothing but impressed with this product. It does what itself on the bottle and reduces my frizz. I can't comment on the heat protection as I don't often use heat on my hair (except to straighten it when I am dying it). My hair is softer and smells gorgeous. All for a cheap price of around £1 which is a lot cheaper than more expensive products and does a better job than a lot of them too.

I would definitely recommend giving this a try if you have a problem with frizz. Or, if not perhaps another shampoo/ conditioner more suited for your hair in the Fructis range.

Summary: A great shampoo to tame your frizz.
