Advantages: It smells quite nice

Disadvantages: See op.

Just to set the scene, I used to have straight hair, but then I shaved all my hair off and lo and behold it grew back a seventies throwback nightmare.

My hair is very thick and wavy. In a bid to try to win the struggle against Mother Nature I purchased Pantene Pro V Smooth and Sleek. The conditioner and shampoo at £1.79 each.

It smelt lovely and fresh, lathered well and I looked forward to glossier hair.

I used it for the first time yesterday morning and awoke today to hair that looks like it's been in a deep fat fryer. Very attractive.

I phoned the Pantene Helpline on 0800 0283578 where I was informed that the Smooth and Sleek range has extra conditioner in it to smoothen the hair.

I was also advised not to let my hair dry naturally and instead blowdry.

This is perhaps a fair point but I don't always have the time to do so and so I will have to buy another product for everyday use.

I was told that I will be given a voucher to replace this product,which although helpful is perhaps throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I for one will only be using this product at the weekend, but Bah Humbug I'll still have to use the dreaded dryer.

I wasn't expecting miracles. A good job really.

***UPDATE***

It is now the weekend , a time of vodka and blowdrying in my case. Still kinky as a gimp suit (my hair not ME).

There's only one thing for it: The Hairdressers.

Yes, my hair is still offensive to my female foibles but yesterday , Mr Postie delived a £5 voucher from Proctor and Gamble. Who says it doesn't pay to complain?

The voucher can also be used for Vidal Sasson, Wash and Go and Head and Shoulders products.

I have to laugh as it says ' Please do not embarrass your retailer by attempting to redeemthis coupon against any item other than the p
roduct listed'.

Oh and I so wanted to see that elfin boy in Tesco's blush...
