Clairol Herbal Essences Conditioner Normal Hair

Advantages: Works well, leaves hair easy to manage
Disadvantages: Tacky packaging, and smelly product

...and a mini bottle of Clairol Herbal Essences (hereafter known as HE) was just one of these. Some people clean their house the day before their cleaner comes round. I don’t (to both cleaning my house, ever, and having a cleaner) but occasionally in the run up to a hairdressers appointment, I might start taking better care of my hair. I’ve been using a cheap conditioner for a few months, but I’d noticed a difference in my hair so ...
...I wanted something a bit more expensive (not pricey pricey, just more than 55p a bottle) but since I decided this on a Saturday night when all the shops were shut for a good 36 hours, I had to use something in the cupboard, ergo HE got tried. I don’t know why, but I really dislike the packaging. It just looks cheap and badly designed to me, and doesn’t appeal in any way, shape or form. Plus the top comes totally off when you unscrew ...

Advantages: Lovely smell, does the job
Disadvantages: None so far

As you know if you have read my opinion about Herbal Essence shampoo (and if you haven’t – why not?) I had 50ml bottles of the shampoo and conditioner as free samples ordered from www.herbalessences.com I was very impressed and wrote an opinion about the shampoo, but now I have a problem. I want to write an opinion about the conditioner too, but I have recently been criticized for using the same wording on two separate opinions about the same sort ...
...extent. Anyway just for the purists amongst you I shall endeavour not to repeat words from the first opinion unless I absolutely have to! I shall obviously need to use the words ‘Herbal Essences’ and such like as changing the product name would make the opinion a bit silly wouldn’t it? The conditioner is the Herbal Essences Moisturising Conditioner for Normal Hair. Whether you consider me ‘normal’ or not is quite another matter. It came in a container ... Read review

Advantages: See op.
Disadvantages: None

I rarely go to the bother of looking for a conditioner, as my hair seems to be as in good as condition as it could possibly get. It wasn’t until last week. I picked up this by accident mistaking it for the shampoo not conditioner. Oh well I just had to make do with my Headstrong which had been lurking around the bathroom for months. I have used many of the herbal essences range and found this to be one of the best I’ve tried. I like ...
...The shampoo smells like many in the Herbal Essences range, it smells very fresh and natural. The contents, which perfume this shampoo, are sage and Jasmine and soy protein in mountain fresh water. Most of the Herbal Essences range smells very similar to me but very nice anyhow. The Bottle. The Bottle is plastic and is pale green, with a dark green lid to represent the plants, which this shampoo is based around. The shampoo I guess is based around ... Read review

Advantages: It leaves hair feeling and looking soft and shiny, at the moment Clairol are giving away free samples but hurry as offer ends 30th November 2002
Disadvantages: I haven't come across any yet

...Hair. It is made by Clairol and contains Aloe Vera, Chamomile and Jojoba in Mountain Spring Water. The sample sized conditioner is contained within a 45 ml bottle, which is a good size as it allows you to try the product at least 3-4 times to see if it actually suits your hair - I've found in the past that the free trial sachets I have been sent by other manufacturers don't really contain enough for me to form an accurate opinion about the product ...
...packaged within an opaque cream coloured plastic bottle which is sealed with a bottle green coloured screw top lid. The front of the bottle has a transparent sticker attached to it which advises the consumer of the manufacturer, the product name, the hair type that the product is suitable for, the product size and a list of the main herbal ingredients contained within the product. The reverse of the packaging again contains a transparent label which ... Read review

Advantages: Smells absolutely gorgeous, leaves hair feeling beautifully soft and silky
Disadvantages: As with many beauty products it’s overpriced

Whenever I think of Herbal Essences, I cannot help but recall the television advertisement for the product – which consists of a court room scene with a woman going crazy over the gorgeous feel and scent of her hair, after apparently washing it with Clairol’s Herbal Essences. The judge calls out ‘order, order!’ which the viewer soon realises means ‘order’ in the purchasing sense. It’s both a striking and ...
...men (admittedly this is slowly changing) and solemn proceedings and so this display of female self-indulgence can be interpreted as almost blasphemous. It wasn’t however this advert which enticed me to buy a Herbal Essences conditioner, it was the bargain price of just a pound that I found it for in a shop in Plymouth today. As my hair has been dyed a few times and is still recovering from the chemical treatment, I decided to go for the ‘moisturising’ ... Read review

Advantages: Smell refreshingly gorgeous, as if you're really in the forest.
Disadvantages: Doesn't really nourish or make hair shiny.

...What is it? *********** A bottle of hair conditioner by Herbal Essences. Special Features? ******************* A conditioner that has been infused with Passion Flower, Patchouli and Vetiver extracts. The conditioner has been formulated for normal hair, claims to enhance the hair's silkiness and vitality, enrich with moisture and enhance manageability. The conditioner also claims to leave the hair luminous and dazzling with shine. What do I think of it? ********************* On first opening the bottle, there is a big sweeping aroma of flowers. It's a gorgeous refreshing smell, not too floral, and reminds me of being deep in the forest near where the waterfalls are! Funnily, this conditioner is called 'Rain Forest Flowers'! I used this just after shampooing and once again, it smells gorgeous. The smell is... Read review

Advantages: Recyclable bottle
Disadvantages: Weak smell and not strong enough

...Now this I totally disliked. I did not finish the bottle.. it was so horrific. I used it together with the corresponding shampoo.The shampoo dried out my hair making it brittle , and this conditioner did nothing at all to help. The smell was very faint. I noticed that the "feel" of the conditioner itself was very slimy and greasy.. but it was not absorbed by my hair Again I want to say that I normally use products for normal to oily hair and have never faced this problem. All in all, I was thoroughly disappointed by this thing! and I will Never buy it again :( So there... Read review

..., coloured, full of mousse and hairspray. I am at the moment trying to grow it a bit longer, so you can imagine when you get to that in between stage, were it just looks a total mess. Ok so I opened the shampoo (but I’m not talking about that)and washed my hair. Now I came to use the conditioner. A pale creamy/ yellowy plastic bottle with a green lid. On the front of the bottle in green writing are the words Clairol Herbal Essences, and other info conditioner/normal hair etc. I plonk a blob (a creamy/yellowy blob) on to the fingers of my left hand, as you do, I then dip the fingers of my right hand into the blob, I squiggle my fingers together and then reach for the ends of my flowing locks. (yeah right) more like straggly strands. WARNING::::::::::Don’t put conditioner on your scalp. It is really only meant for the ends... Read review
