Picture this...: Hair so soft you can't help but run your fingers through it all day long, Hair so fragrant you needn't wear perfume, hair so shiny you begin to wonder if you have washed your hair in sunshine.
This is exactly what it is like for me washing my hair with Charles Worthington's "Super Condition". It is a product for "Dry, damged or coloured hair" which basically means it is full of moisture and goodness for your lovely locks.
--Price-- Costing a steep £4.00 a bottle I thought to myself this better be worth it, but having the product recommended I took one last look at my money and placed the item on the check out.
So what do you get for your £4.00 then? A 250ml bottle of Charles Worthington's SuperConditioner that is what. (And well worth every penny in my opinion, I wouldn't be spending
that sort of money otherwise.)
--Appearance-- The product comes in a short thin, but wide bottle, which is semi-transparent. The product itself is a peachy colour and it is generally a very attractive bottle, looks good on anyone's windowcill.
--Texture-- The conditioner is squidgy, soft and truely luxurious, not likely to run through your fingers as you pour it our (which is good when you consider the price at £3.99 per 250ml bottle).
--Smell-- This condition has a fresh and pleasant smell to it. The fragrance is hard to describe. But you know how it is when you go to your hairdressers and they wash you hair with some product, you dont know what it is as your upside down at the time and forget to ask later, but it leaves you hair smelling fabulous all day...it's kinda like that. It has a glamourous, sexy scent that reminds you how lovely you hair is looking and feeling all day long.
--The "results"-- (notice the punn...I'm on a roll here) Ok...so what does this conditioner actually do?? Well I'll tell you what it claims to do and I will check the list as I go along for the things it did for me. Firstly I will say though..that it did things for me that I never thought I would get from a conditioner.
It claims... *To give you instant volume, shine and nourishment. -Volumise hair (SEMI-CHECK) -Add shine (CHECK) -Prevent static (SEMI-CHECK) -Protect hair from heat styling damage. (DEFINATELY CHECK)I use hairdryer and straighteners on my hair daily (which I know I shouldn't, but do anyway) and thanks to this wonderful product my hair still stays gorgeous and soft and supple, not dry and brittle. -Protect hair from environmental damage. (NOT SURE) -Boost hairs moisture. (DEFINATELY CHECK!!!) -Prevent chlorine damage. - (CHECK) I gym and swim twice a week and washing my hair with this afterwards certainly makes a difference to my hair for the rest of the day. -Restore PH balance (well im no scientist so I don't know!!)
What I do know however is how so and supple my hair feels right now. I know I enjoy running my fingers through my hair, it feels like silk ( and it never used to, honestly!!!)
--Advise-- *Use in line with Charles worthington's moisture seal shampoo, they compliment eachother well, but if £8.00 is a little out of the buget (and it is for me, but my hair is valued and so I spend it anyway) then this conditioner can be used with a cheaper shampoo and still have a good effect.
*If you are prone to greasy hair then avoid use on the roots and scalp, simply apply conditioner to the hair concentrating on the tips, or you could try another product in the range.
*Shampoo the hair twice (that is if you have time) as this ensures that all residue is removed from the hair, in order to allow the conditioner to be absorbed well and so maximising the resluts.
* If your still not convinced then give the minituresa go, they are about £1.50 a bottle and are called "Take Aways" they contain 50ml of the product and are great for yor travels or for sampling the product if you are new to it.
So my final words of wisdom..try it and experience it, I bet you would love it, even if it is a little on the expensive side, think of it as your treat, pamper yourself.
I hope this was of use to you, really you dont know what you are missing ( I hate that phrase, so cory, but so true!!).
Thanks for reading, Vicky xxxxx
After Sarah's request, it is available in Boot's and they often have offers on products such as three for the price of two, so try it and if u like it stock up while the price is good! (sorry Sarah, thought I had included where to buy it.) I have looked elswhere such as my supermarket and local chemist, but no-one seems to do it, but Boot's is a sure fire place to find it if all else fails!

Excellent opinion! You have sold it to me! I'm going straight to the shop tomorrow to buy some! My hair is quite dry on the ends so I'll let you know if it works! Only one thing you didnt mention, where I can buy it from, but I'll just raid all the chemists shelves till I find it!

I often use this stuff too. Boots often have it on 3 for 2 so it's worth stocking up when they do. Kerry x
