Advantages: Works quite welll Disadvantages: But not well enough to make me stop using the regular
...heard great things from the Charles Worthington products so bought the one that was:
"balancing act oil-regulating shampoo".
This was also for hair that had greasy roots but dry ends, another symptom of my unfortunate hair.
It came in a little pink plastic bottle. The actual shampoo is extremely clear and gloriously thick gloop, and I could almost feel my hair gasping a sigh of relieve when I used it! It lathered up really well, made lots of bubbles, ... ...the bottle is the typical Charles Worthington smell. At the start, I really nice and clean smell appears, but after a few moments I'm left with a less than pleasant ammonia style stench. The smell could definitely been worked on. After using it my hair was left feeling squeaky clean- literally. This is not necessarily a bad thing but left me feeling a bit worried that my hair had simply been stripped of all its good things as well as the grease. ...

...the opinion.
I've used Charles Worthingtons take aways products a few times. I've taken them when I've stayed over places and also used them to try out before buying the huge bottle that costs 3 times as much! The shampoo I'm going to be talking about anyway is the "Shine On" shampoo, that comes in the little yellow shampoo thing! It comes in 75ml for £1.50 - a lot more than it could cost to buy a big bottle of normal shampoo from asda! This particular ... ...It smells like most other Charles Worthington products really!
How does it lather?
Not amazingly! It's not bad and it does spread well, but don't keep scrubbing at your head thinking that it's gonna turn you into a mr microphone head, cos it won't!
How does it wash?
Is my hair squeaking now? Um...not exactly no! It's slightly better than when I use the quality 69p for 500ml bottles my mum keeps purchasing from asda though! I've used it 3 times ...

Advantages: Clean, shiny, healthy hair that looks and smells great. Disadvantages: No matter how much you use, it won't lather.
...“3 for 2” above the Charles Worthington display. Unable to work away from an offer I decided to have a nosey, and am I glad I did. The whole range of Charles Worthington hair care products were included on the promotion. However I didn’t want to splash out £6.00 a large bottle of shampoo that I didn’t know whether I would like, let alone spend £12.00 and get three! I was, therefore, drawn towards the “Take Aways” ... ...tested on animals and it does a brilliant job of making hair feel pampered. I’d recommend giving it a try, especially whilst the Charles Worthington offer is on at Boots. You’ll have hair like all those TV models and it’ll defiantly make you feel good about your locks! ...

...because I didn’t have my Charles Worthington takeaways. I know, I know, what a build up for such a commercial sounding pitch, but the last trip I made, I made my hair happy and actually packed for the event that it would have a disaster instead of me.
The colourful little bottles are 75mL of saving grace. They take up no room in luggage, are durable plastic bottles, and last for a lot longer than seems natural; even with my tangled thick mess. ... ...you hold out for Boots, there are usually 3 for 2 sales on CW every few months. Stock up.
I like the gloss sealing orange bottle, the all in one treatment green bottle and so he doesn’t feel left out, there is the blue boy bottle (though heaven knows why he needs his own special man bottle when it all smells the same anyway). There are far more varieties, conditioners, frizz concealers, leave in goop… all in a great colourful set of ...

...is about a few of Charles Worthington’s products, not just the take aways shampoo, this being because it doesn’t have a general category.
I can’t say I’ve ever been a fan of hairdressers who are on television, I’ve always found them particularly annoying, but as this shampoo came highly recommended from a friend, I thought I might buy a small bottle.
So I popped off to Boots and looked around for a bit, I saw all the usual shampoos, which didn’t ... ...all the Charles Worthington stuff and instantly picked up on the bright bottles and the fact that there was such a huge range available. So I picked up the shampoo first (well you can’t buy conditioner without shampoo can you?) then I saw the price, and wasn’t exactly willing to fork out that much, ( I’m 14, I’m allowed to be stingy, I’m still on pocket money status!) then I noticed a display of miniatures, which looked perfect for my needs.

...shampoo section and noticed the Charles Worthington section, I usually use other hair salon products but have never tried these, so I was looking through a rather impressive and extensive range and spotted some tiny bottles of shampoos and conditioners. Being intrigued I began to look a little closer, I was shocked by the range on offer - an amazing 23 different products in the take-away range from:
Shine on Shampoo
Nourish as needed rebalancing ... ...shampoo
Stay cool heat protecting spray
Shine gloss and refresh spray
To mention a few.
I was spoilt for choice but eventually decided on the Shine on Shampoo as my hair is coloured every four weeks I like it to look as healthy and shiny as possible and no flake shampoo as I have noticed lately that my scalp is becoming very dry so I was keen to treat it.
Both of the above cost only £1.65 each
The take-away shampoos and conditioners come in ...

...a barely touched bottle of Charles Worthington Take Aways shampoo. And I thought to myself: "I wonder why I've not remembered to use that…" Then I thought "excellent - I'll use this when I have a shower tomorrow morning!"

I bought the shampoo as part of a 3for2 offer at Boots, and got the conditioner and the shine serum too - all three for £3 (They're usually £1.50ish each). Which isn't bad I suppose, especially if you don't mind the smell. So are there any good points about this product? Well, yes I suppose so. It made my hair relatively nice ...

...to add a proposal
Charles Worthington Take Away's!!
I have always liked Charles Worthington products but I find them a little expensive, so I don’t buy them as often as I would like.
A few weeks ago I was browsing round my local boots store and I spotted his 'take away' range.
Boots had a special offer on '3 for 2’ so I snapped them up.
The Bottle
The bottle is about 2 inches tall by about 1 ½ wide, its baby pink and on the front in black writing ... ...The Cost?
I costs 1.50 GBP for the ‘Take Away’ range and double that for the full size bottles.
It’s made in the U.K and not tested on animals, and for more information you can visit the Charles Worthington website at: www.cwlondon.com.
Cheers ...

Advantages: Clean, shiny hair that's full of volume Disadvantages: none
I've wanted to try the Charles Worthington range for a long time as it always seems to be very highly recommended. So i decided to buy some of the take aways products, trial sized bottles at half the price, a great idea! My decision was also influenced by Boots having a 3 for 2 offer on but anyway..

Advantages: Cleansing for oily hair and scalp, only need a small quantity, cheap Disadvantages: None
...So we opted for the Charles Worthington RESULTS Balancing Act Oil Regulating 'take aways' shampoo from Boots (just £1.50). After just one wash with this product hair was squeaky clean. It really was!! I have short blonde hair that is never usually oily other than after wearing a hard hat for sometime and my boyfriend has short dark hair that is prone to oiliness and his scalp to spots. I would therefore recommend this product for washing once or ... ...more regular use if oil is more of a problem. I can confirm that a spotty scalp becomes less of a problem after using this shampoo just a couple of times. This si surprising as it is not a medicated shampoo and does not contain any of the natural ingredients one might associate with spot treatment.
The bottle blurb claims to moisurise roots while cleansing ends. I can't confirm whether this is true or not as my hair is very short. However I am so ...

This is a shampoo for people with normal hair. It smells good and it does what it says on the bottle. It cost £1.50 from boots but they also do 3 for 2 regulaly on this collection.

Advantages: heavenly smell, makes your hair super shiny Disadvantages: shape of bottle, not very handy though
the shampoo is available in different bottle sizes and for different hairtypes. I used the one for dry hair.
My hair is very long, thick and the ends are dry.
And it is always a real pain in the backside to wash my hair as it takes ages and is impossible to untangle it afterwards.
I used the shampoo and the conditioner afterwards and I could comb through my hair straight away! There was no OUCH or Aggh! anymore.
You can feel the smoothing effect ...
