Advantages: Cheap does what it says

Disadvantages: none really.

What is it?

This is a Tesco conditioner, advertised for dry or damaged hair. This particular one is a pomegranate and wild berry type, even though I didn't know that until now! This one is aimed at people with dry and damaged hair, so it's perfect for me.
It also comes with a shampoo.

Appearance

It is 300ml and a typical shaped hair product bottle. It has a simple design with a photo of pomegranate and wild berries to decorate it. At the top it makes it clear it is a Tesco brand, and at the bottom it tells you it's for Dry and Damaged hair.
The back tells you the obvious directions for use, and warnings about not getting it into your eyes.
After the ingredients it tells you if you do not like the product they are happy to replace and refund it for you. However, I'd be scared to go into my local Tesco, they ain't a happy bunch.

Smell

It has a nice smell. It sort of reminds me of my Nan's house, it's a kind of powdery, fruity, perfumey, sweet type of smell. It's not too strong, but it is a pleasant smell.

Price

This is such a reasonably priced product, at 50p it is a real bargain. It is a cheap alternative to some of the really over priced hair products, and I think it works just as well as those more well known hair brands. I remember being very satisfied when I bought this.

My opinions during and after use

During washing my hair I remember first noticing how my hair felt soft after I rinsed it out, and this is always a great sign. Sometimes you just know if a product is going to make your hair feel soft.
My hair tends to be knotty after I wash it so I was worried a cheap conditioner wasn't going to make it any easier. However, the brush (yes I know I should use a comb) just slipped easily through my now soft and silky hair.
I straighten my hair regularly and so it is obviously dry and damaged, this product really gave it a bit of life back and made it feel and smell lovely. After drying and straightening my hair I noticed I didn't really get static at all which is a great bonus.
I had a lovely sweet smell from my hair too which to be honest I wasn't really expecting with this cheap product. It didn't last until I needed to wash my hair again though.

I highly recommend this if you are watching your wallet and still want to pamper your hair, it made it feel great, especially knowing how cheap it is.
On the back it says: Infused with extracts of promegranate and wild berry it will help moisturise and nourish your hair leaving it feeling soft, silky and beautiful.
I definitely feel this is a true statement.
