Advantages: It smells lovely and the packaging is attractive Disadvantages: Dries out the ends and greases up the roots!
...When I think of Dove as a brand I think of quality products, which are strongly perfumed, and packaged in simple, functional containers. Therefore, although I’d not heard any personal opinions on this product (and I neglected to check Ciao – cardinal sin!) I went out and handed over around £2.50 for the Moisturising Milk Shampoo for coloured hair.
And now, so that we all know where I’m coming from here’s a little summary.

The SMELL
The same heavily perfumed/soupy smell that can be expected from all Dove products, from their deodorants to their body washes. In my opinion, it’s a very clean smell and I do like it, but I am not sure how gentle such a perfumed product would be for people who have sensitive skin.
Thumbs up!
The COLOUR and the TEXTURE
The shampoo is a pure white ...

...of the market but until Dove came along, I had been unable to find anything of any real use to my hair. Many an evening I have been about to go out and have been held up because my hair just isn't doing what it is told. I even got to the point where I had my hair cut really, really short (I don't like short hair personally but I felt I had got my own back on my hair for the years of stress it had caused me, ha ha!!)
The solution

I am going to stick with this shampoo now (and seek out the conditioner) and recommend this to my friends and family. I would also recommend this to anyone who, like ...

...of you that read my Dove Cleansing Bar review the other day, you will know that I am a great fan of the whole range they produce. I have since come to learn that a staggering 7.2 million women use at least one Dove product every week!
Interesting facts aside, today I am going to focus my attention on the Dove Shampoo.

The description on the front of the bottle pertaining to which particular hair type you are buying for, is written in easily identifiable differing colours. The writing on this particular bottle is in orange.
The shape of the container is somewhat unusual in that it tapers in towards the top and is topped off with a blue cap. The front of the bottle states that it is 'moisturising milk shampoo' with 1/4 ...

...Then I saw that Dove had brought out a shampoo. We all know that Dove is famous for its soap with 1/4 moisturiser. They have gone into all areas now, including body wash, deodorants, cleansing wipes and conditioner to name a few.I receieved a free sample of this shampoo in a magazine, so gave it a try. Lets just say, on my next shopping trip there was a bottle of this product going home with me.

The scent is a soapy one. It is mild on your hair, so it isnt a strong scent for your hair but you can faintly smell it on application. If you are looking for a shampoo that is going to but a fragrance on your hair then this isnt it. However if you are looking for softness then it is.
When I applied this I found that from a small blob I could ...

...‘Dove’ and almost always use Dove deodorant, but I had never tried the shampoo and conditioner.
I had read a few good opinions here on Ciao so I decided to ask Father Christmas if he might find some for me and, as usual, he came up trumps!
I have now used the shampoo twice (I did have some to finish – I haven’t only washed my hair twice since Christmas!) so I thought I’d better tell you what I think about it.
The Packaging
The shampoo comes in ... ...has the by now familiar Dove colouring of plain white with blue lettering and it has a blue flip top. So the container is easy to hold, an important thing if you intend using it in the shower, and the shampoo is easy to get at – a quick squeeze and there you are! (There’s no answer to that is there?)

As I opened the top of the container I could smell the familiar fragrance that I have come to associate with Dove, and I love it! The ...

...thought I would try the Dove Shampoo to see what is was like.
It comes in a 250ml white bottle, with a blue flip lid. There is a picture of a dove on the front of the bottle above the word Dove. It is not an eye catching bottle to look at, as it is just plain and simple really.
It smells nice and you can smell the shampoo for quite a while once you have washed your hair. It smells like most of the Dove products actually, which is kind of fruity ... ...overpowering smell either.
To use this shampoo wet your hair, lather shampoo in to your hair, rinse off and repeat if necessary. I only ever do it once as that is all that is needed and I have quite long hair really. I only use the size of about a 50p coin everytime I wash my hair, as it lathers up really well.

Advantages: You can see and feel the difference (I feel like a walking ad!) Disadvantages: None
I bought some Dove shampoo and conditioner in Tesco’s about a month back, it was new, I hadn‘t tried it so I though why not? It was on a 2 for 1 after all! When it‘s normally £2.49 for 250ml it’s a fair old price but was a complete bargain and I never stick to the same shampoo, always what is on offer. I bought Dove for hair that has been coloured or highlighted they also produce others such as for fine hair or normal (whatever that is!).

The shampoo itself looks much like the Dove shower gel, which was a bit worrying! Oh no I though use the same stuff in a different bottle save on the research! I popped the shampoo on my hair and it had a the same smell as the shower gel, not flowery or strong which is good, ...

...So when I saw that Dove had brought our a new haircare range, I was over the moon. Now I could smell like Dove all over (and god help anyone sitting near to me who didn’t like that distinctive Dove fragrance).
Dove products are made by Lever Faberge, and the haircare is the latest in a long line which includes deodorants, talc, soaps, bath foams and shower gels.
Lever Faberge promote Dove as different from their products because of their ... ...The Packaging:
Like all Dove stuff, a basic white plastic container with royal blue trim and lid. Nothing special but nothing offensive either. Looks perfectly acceptable on your bathroom shelf.
The Smell:
Aah, that smell. The smell of all Dove products (unless you buy the special ones for sensitive skin) is STRONG, so you either love it or loathe it. It is a clean, flowery, talcy and above all soapy smell and it lasts on your skin and hair. Personally ...

This time I have decided to review the moisturising milk shampoo for all hair types.
As some of you are aware I have tried the silk conditioner, and although I found the product good I found it not user friendly in the showers at the swimming pool.
I do like the gentle smell of Dove and also the recommendation from the dermatology department of my local hospital.

Well after returning home from the city I went to the pool where I regularly go and had a short swim coz it was so busy. I am so fussy I don’t like too many people in the swimming pool.
After my brief swim and a delicious warm sauna I decided to try this New product out.

All through washing your hair, you can smell the shampoo, so it's good if you like the smell of Dove products anyway.

I just don't get it. Dove adverts go on and on and on about being really moisterising...1/4 moisturiser and all. So WHY is it (someone please tell me!) that every Dove product I've ever tried has left my skin, hair, whatever - completly dehydrated! The COMPLETE opposite of what Dove promise?! Take the Dove Cleansing Cloths I tried, not only did my eyes sting for ages afterwards my skin felt so uncomfortably tight and dry...the amount of moisteriser ... ...shape about it. Your usual Dove packaging, can't miss it on the shelf! How it can call itself 'Moistersing Milk Shampoo' is waaaaaaay beyond me, but hey...that's what it reckons!
It's pearly white shampoo which you don't need alot of as it does lather up well. The smell is really nasty though! Every stupid Dove product smells the same...strong and soapy. The kind of smell that gives you a headache. So, when your lathering up in the shower, it doesn't ...

Basically the neutral pH formula protects the scalp and restores its natural balance, as it gently washes the light milky texture gives a soothing sensation. The shampoo is also dermatologically tested.

...quite pleased when I heard Dove were now marketing a shampoo. I love the bodywash, soap etc but I was a bit skeptical as to whether the shampoo would live up to the high standards set by previous products. I find that usually the products made after the initial product is a success are not usually as good and that crossover companies don't really seem to fare well. I was pleasantly surprised though. I loved the shampoo too!

However, this causes the only problem I found with the shampoo. After prolonged use, about a month of washing my hair every few days for me, it became greasy very quickly after washing it. Luckily I like to vary my products so my hair doesn't get too used to them but otherwise it may cause a problem.

...about 6 weeks ago for dove shampoo. They said it locks in moisture and makes your hair shiny. So off I went to Tesco and brought some dove shampoo for dry or damaged hair.
I used it that night; it had a really nice silky smooth feel to it and had that nice dove smell. It felt more like conditioner than shampoo like nothing I had tried before. It was really nice to use, I only used a little bit of it and it really worked up a creamy lather. Then ... ...I have been using the dove whenever I wash my hair and the results are terrific.
