I'm usually quite particular about what kind of shampoo I use and most often buy them especially for my hair type. However I recently won this Sainsbury's Basics Shampoo in a raffle and thought I would try it to see if it was any good. The shampoo is manufactured by supermarket Sainsbury's for their own brand range called 'Basics'. I have used several products in the Sainsbury's Basics range (they have an extensive range of products over many grocery departments) and found many of them to be of a good quality and not much different from more expensive bigger brand named products. The shampoo comes in a large plastic bottle which is transparent ...  Read the complete review

=== The product === Shampoo for making your hair clean. Sure it needs no further description... === The packaging === This comes provided in a tall plastic bottle. This has a chunky white plastic cap on the top and everything about this packaging is no frills. There is a label on the bottle showing all the usual information such as ingredients and company information. There is really nothing special about this packaging but it is strong, sturdy and can withstand knocks off the side of the bath with no problems at all. === How to use this === Use this how you would use any other shampoo. Lather, rinse, repeat if ...  Read the complete review

Review of Sainsburys Basics Shampoo In line with many other supermarkets, Sainsbury's have their own range of simple, basic products aimed at the budget end of the market. This shampoo is part of their budget range known as 'Basics'. ==The Product== Presented in a tall recyclable plastic bottle, Sainsbury's Basics Shampoo is a pretty pinkish-peach colour. The bottle contains 1litre of shampoo. The product is not recommended for any particular hair type, but states it is a family product. As with all Sainsbury's Basics goods, the packaging and label are a simple no frills style. Direction for use, ...  Read the complete review

I have always been a bit skeptical about basic shampoos from Supermarkets. I like nice shampoos which have a nice scent. My boyfriend travels a lot and he brings me some time shampoos from the 5 star Hotels, like Bulgari, Aqua di Parma. The other day I was at Sainsbury's and I saw this shampoo and when I saw the price, only 26 pennies, I decided to give it a go. The bottle is really basic and the shampoo does not look particularly attractive from the plastic bottle. When I arrived home, I put it away and did not use it until the weekend. I did not want to try it during the week, because I like my hair to have a fresh and nice scent and did not know ...  Read the complete review

Todays review is from the Sainsburys Basic range, its a whopping one litre of no frills shampoo. The price of this product is a very, very low of 26p, as you can understand this represents amazing value. On first impressions, it looks very boring , the packaging being plain , with a big screw top. Its a clear bottle so you can see the shampoo easily . The labels are easily peeled off, which is great if you have teenagers like mine who want premium products. On opening the shampoo, it hasnt any overpowering smell of floral, it just smells like a fresh pine smell. Not unpleasant I may add. On tipping out onto the palm of you ...  Read the complete review
