I own about half of the products from the Tigi Bed Head range now, so I guess it's only fair I share my experiences with the people of Ciao. I was given a tigi set as one of my Christmas presents from my boyfriend. The set included the Self Abosorbed shampoo, conditioner, and Maxxed Out hairspray. This review is on the Self Absorbed shampoo.
SELF ABSORBED SHAMPOO
Being a promotional sample size set, the bottle I have of this shampoo is smaller than full size but it keeps the same design - a clear plastic cylindrical bottle with a pop up nozzle for a cap (like a sports water bottle) which you can also unscrew to pour the very last bit out. The shampoo is a crazy orange colour.
The nozzle on the bottle is easy to pop up, even with wet hands, and the shampoo is not TOO hard to squeeze out - though it is admittedly a bit harder the nearer I get to the end of the bottle and sometimes needs unscrewing to pour out.. I generally use a blob just a bit bigger than a two pound coin. It is thick and sort of gel-like in consistency. Massaging it into my hair and scalp for about a minute produces a big rich lather, but one which is slightly soapier than some of the other tigi shampoos. My favourite ones are more creamy. However, there is one thing about this shampoo which is undeniably gorgeous - the scent! To me it smells like zesty oranges or fizzy orange Fruitang sweets (if anyone remembers those!)
When you're done with the lathering the shampoo rinses out pretty easily. Immediately after rinsing and before using shampoo it's slightly disappointing that the shampoo alone doesn't really detangle. I know you would only reasonably expect a conditioner to detangle but I find that the better tigi shampoos detangle hair even before conditioner is applied.
Given that I received this shampoo with the conditioner, I always use them together, so it's hard to separate the actions of the two, but I'll try to evaluate what I think the shampoo does on its own.
IT CLAIMS:
"Gentle enough for every day use" - I would actually disagree with this one, as I think that there are much gentler shampoos out there, and this one could end up being slightly drying if used daily.
"Deep cleansing" - Yes I think it is. It gives my hair volume, which shampoos don't if they haven't fully cleansed all the oils and dirt out of your hair.
"Repairs" - Can't really comment on this one as I have only used a small sample bottle infrequently so I don't think that would repair on its own. The conditioner may though?
"Adds shine" - It's hard to say, as I don't use this without the conditioner, but with the conditioner my hair is nice and shiny.
RESULTS
After using the shampoo, I follow with the conditioner so the results are really for both. After blow-drying my hair, it does feel sort and clean, but I can't help but feel slightly disappointed that it's not a bit softer still. Had I used this Bed Head shampoo before trying Manipulator or the Fashionista one from Tigi's Catwalk range perhaps I'd have been more impressed, but having used these I know it's not their best (and the gorgeous scent doesn't really stay on your hair that much either...shame, although my boyfriend does say my hair smells nice after this). That is not to say it's bad though, the main advantage being that it does not flatten your hair - it seems to give a bit of extra volume and body, and it does make my hair sleek enough that I can allow it to dry naturally if I want.
It keeps my hair clean for a normal amount of time, I wouldn't say it's especially long lasting or grease-inducing.
PRICE AND AVAILABILITY
I don't know how much my set cost as it was a present and the promotion finished a long time ago. The standard size for this shampoo is 350ml and it'll set you back a mean £7.20 - it's expensive but if you do consider buying it remember that it lasts a LONG time if you interchange it with using other slightly cheaper shampoos.
VERDICT
This is still a very good shampoo, but when I compare it with Manipulator from the same range, or Fashionista from their Catwalk range, I don't think I'll bother buying the full size of this when my mini version runs out. If I were to buy it it'd be mainly to get another hit of that mood-lifting zesty orange smell!
Advantages: fresh fruity scent, revitalises dry, damaged hair Disadvantages: quite costly in comparison to other shampoos
I'm a big fan of the Bed Head range by TIGI, and the self-absorbed shampoo (and conditioner) is not exception.
This set is for dry and damaged hair, boasting of 'mega nutrients' to energise hair. I have found that this leaves my slightly dry, coloured hair much softer and feeling hydrated. It leaves it with a silky shine and feeling much more manageable. It also reduces the appearance of those unsightly split ends
The shampoo itself is a light ... ...in your hair to give that just washed feel all day. Available in smaller bottles of 250ml (approx £6-7) and larger bottles of 750ml (£12-£15) it is really great as a present or just a treat for yourself. The packaging is also quite freah and modern, so looks great in your bathroom! I would say that this product is good value for money as it lasts a long time, My hair is thick and shoulder length and require just two squirts to wash. The shampoo foams ...

Advantages: Works well with all types of hair Disadvantages: Can only buy it at salons
If you like the smell of orange cremesicles then you will love this shampoo. It has a rich thick lather and saturates your head in a wonderful scent. I love this shampoo and it is gentle enough to use daily. It works well with color treated or processed hair. I have a problem with split ends and I feel that this shampoo really bonds with hair and helps mend all the damage I put my hair through on a daily basis. They are not joking about the self ...

Advantages: My hair has never looked better Disadvantages: Pricey, difficult to get hold of
I have been meaning to wash my hair for a few days now. Constant itching and a lardy texture had driven me to the point of turning the shower on and crouching down next to the bath, ready to alternate screaming and profane language as the temperature gradually stabilised from ice to steam to luke warm.
Fortunately for me a knock at the door heralded the arrival of my prize for writing an opinion on hair colour on Ciao (Deep Purple Ears, on L'Oreal Feria Colour).
Inside the huge padded parcel was a not so huge box containing a plastic scented digital watch (yeuch), a 350ml bottle of TIGIBedHeadSelfAbsorbed Mega Vitamin shampoo, a 250ml bottle of conditioner from the same range, and a 200ml bottle of TIGIBedHead Creative Genius sculpting liquid.
Hmmm.
Having Googled around a little today I find that these are VERY ...
Advantages: happy shiny hair Disadvantages: the price!
A big thank you has to go to those nice people at ciao that sent me this shampoo as part of a prize for the recent colourings competition. Having only ever won a box of biccy's at a school raffle some years ago I was really surprised to find that i'd actuallu won something here on ciao!
Enough of my ramblings back to the product! Tigi's selfabsorbedshampoo is part of the Tigibedhead range but don't be put of by that fact, you will not end up with that just been dragged outta bed look just by using this shampoo - honest!
My hair is to put it in hairdresser speak Chemically treated, ie abused to hell by constant dying ( - well how else can I cover those pesky little grey hairs) and the unwanted attentions of a too hot hair drier. Therefore one word springs to mind Straw! But having used this product on a near daily basis ...
Advantages: The shine! The fab citrus scent! The cool packaging Disadvantages: Cost
N.B. I didn't buy this parcel from Ciao, I won it after reviewing a hair colour! 21/02/01
I was thrilled to come home from work this evening to find a huge parcel from Ciao. Upon opening, I found a fab parcel of TiGi products. This box contained a funky plastic watch, Creative Genius, and BedHeadSelfAbsorbedShampoo and Conditioner. Being that my hairdresser was coming anyway, I thought I'd give my products a try.
So glad that I did! I am already the proud owner of Creative Genius as it is a fantastic tool (more on that another time, no doubt) so I was keen to try out the other BedHead items. Having been a customer at my local branch of Toni and Guy, I had seen these products on display. The only thing that put me off buying them was the rather steep price!
My hair (as some fellow Ciao members will know) is in the former ...
