    I think it's so hard to find as you are the first person I've ever heard ask for it as they like it! :eek::p

    Not trying to be mean or provocative but everyone I know who has tried it has hated it including several members of my family (and me). Even my hubby who's hair can cope with most shampoos hated it!

    I wonder if the stuff you got abroad has a different formulation to the UK version?

    My OH and I use it all the time. I buy it from Wilkinsons but I see they do also have it in Home Bargains.

    I couldnt find it for a long time, then came across it in Wilkinsons so ended up buying a dozen bottles.

    Its brilliant stuff, I don't use conditioner but my OH does.

    We dont like the one that is combined with conditioner and buy Fructus conditioner on it own.

    Its very MSE too, only a tiny bit is required for a good foam.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Hated it why though?

    My hair is soft and shiny, easy to manage, smells nice so I dont understand, perhaps its more to do with individuals hair eh.

  • It's also one that I quite like to use, makes my hair really soft :)

    That's what it did to my hair as well. The worst shampoo I've ever tried. It obviously works for some people though, since Garnier have been making it for years. Just shows, everyone's hair is different.

    Exactly, some peoples hair (like mine) need a bit of extra something to make it lie down and behave, I liked this shampoo/conditioner and styling products too, the mousse I seem to remember was very good for my type 2a/b hair, if you fancy upgrading Redken All Soft is very similar, some of us need silicone but remember to never use heat when you use these type of products.
    All power is from within and therefore under our control
  • I think it really varies from person to person. Some people find the fructis shampoo great for their hair while others even get dandruff or drier hair. So you just have to keep on testing the brands and if you find something that suits you then stick to that.
