Herbal Essences Smooth and Soft Conditioner

I always like to use the same shampoo and conditioner from the same range, I don't know what, I think you probably get better results if you stick with the same formula and science so as I have been using the Herbal Essences new formula smooth and soft which is a sensuously smooth shampoo meant for people with dry damaged or frizzy hair I have also been using the conditioner in conjunction with this.

Like I said this is a new formal that Herbal Essences have brought out for their hair range and I guess I am a bit of a sucker but I was attracted to the bright shiny coloured bottles and the oh so wonderful smells. I decided upon this one as I have frizzy hair and need to straighten it everyday and if I go out int he rain or any moisture at all my hair just frizzes up like a ball so I was quite happy to try both the shampoo and conditioner in this range to see if I could tame it a bit.

The conditioner is very easy to use. After shampooing my hair and rinsing all of that out I apply a bit of conditioner and really make sure that every strand of my hair is covered. On the back of the bottle is says, "See smoothness in your future? How about some protection from humidity? Try this deep conditioning formula for all hair types so your path to soft, smooth hair is perfectly clear." I like this bit of fun on the back, it makes conditioning your hair a bit more interesting than the normal boring instruction. In fact it also say, massage in and rinse and tell humidity to back away slowly!!

The smell of the conditioner as with the shampoo is absolutely amazing. I love a nice fruity smell in my shower and on my body. It is made with mandarin and pearl extracts and is so fruity and fresh but not too sweet and sticky. I like to leave my conditioner in for a good five minutes and do the other things in the shower I need to do like shaver my legs, use the soap etc. I found it very easy to smooth over my hair and really only needed a little bit of it to make my hair go smooth which cannot be said for all conditioners. It's easy to wash out and already I can feel that my hair is lovely and smooth and soft. I does not leave any stickiness in my hair once it is dry which is nice. I think it has worked well on my hair. I can see that even though my hair is still thick and prone to being a bit hard to manage it has made it very soft and the strands are definitely a bit straighter and easier to manage. My hair still frizzes up a bit in rain but I don't think I'll ever find a 100% cure for that.

The product comes from Procter and Gamble. I used it in the 200ml size which costs £2.09 in Boots and if you are looking for it on the shelf it is the red one with a picture of a mandarin on the bottom front of the bottle.
