~Put butter on your toast, not in your hair~ The Body Shop has long been selling their very popular body butters so I suppose it was inevitable that the 'butter' format should be adopted for other types of products. I recently noticed my much-loved rose hand cream is now available as a rose hand 'butter' which rather appeals, but that seems like a logical extension from body to hand. Even so, the idea of 'hair butter' challenged my perceptions of hair products. My husband is convinced that when I'm old and insane, I will live in my dressing gown (even then I won't let my standards slip to a 'slanket') and sit around on the sofa with mashed potato in my hair ...  Read the complete review

I've been trying out a few products for dry and damaged hair recently - I dye my hair regularly and dry and straighten it every day, so it isn't in the best condition and I'm always looking for ways to make it better. One of the products I have tried is The Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Hair Butter. ***The Rainforest Moisture Range*** The Rainforest Moisture range for hair is a relatively new range from the store that prides itself on its ethical and environmental policies. These Rainforest products are made with no silicones, no parabens and no colourants that could potentially irritate skin. They are designed to meet the store's eco-conscious standards, ...  Read the complete review

On a recent trip the The Body Shop to pick up a comb and shampoo, I was advised by the friendly assistant that I qualified for a free pot of their Hair Butter because I was buying the shampoo. Never one to turn down a free gift, I had a quick check of the ingredients to make sure they didn't include parabens (they don't), listened to the girl's explanation of how to use it, and then happily took it home. The assistant had been really enthusiastic about how great the product was, and whilst I do prefer to keep my hair washing as simple as possible, I decided to give it a try. The pot I got was a 50ml plastic tub, which retails at around £3. I thought this was ...  Read the complete review

My mother frequently said to me, as a small child, 'You look like you've been dragged through a hedge backwards.' If that is your desired look I suggest you use this product. My mother did not mean it in a complimentary way and I won't be using this product again. It's not a look I want now. The Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Hair Butter is designed for dry hair. I use hair dye frequently and although it is great when just done, by the time my grey is well and truely showing my hair can be quite coarse and dry, so I thought I'd give this a go. I had my £5 birthday gift on my Love Your Body card, and nothing much else appealled to me at the time, so at only £3 a ...  Read the complete review

I am obsessed with Body Butters and there are very few brands or varieties that are not already sitting on in my bathroom cabinet. However Hair Butters were previously unheard of in my case until I stumbled on the Rainforest Moisture Hair Butter. As my hair can get more than a little dry and as I am know how moisturising Body butters are for my skin, I was more than a little excited to see its effects on my hair. Not to mention its beautiful name. This product comes in the same sort of packaging as the body butters which are created by The Body Shop. It comes in a circular tub with a screw top lid and the decoration is quite plain, with a few leaves scattered ...  Read the complete review
