While browsing around for some conditioner this week, I came across a
new one by L'Oreal, that is either new, or I failed to spot it on
shelves earlier throughout the year. At any rate, it is called, L'Oreal Hair Expertise Everstrong Conditioner Hydrate.
I did not really want to spend a whole lot of money on a conditioner,
but this one smelled so delicious, I had to have it regardless of the
price. Luckily the price is fair, and not over the top like Bed Head or
Umberto.
The Scent:
From the sniff test in the store, what greeted my nostrils was a
delicious mint cookie type scent that reminded me so much of girl scouts
mint cookies. Although I have been dieting, and cannot touch a mint
cookie, it's ice knowing I could smell like one...that it, if the scent
actually lasted in my hair.
My Use:
I went ahead and shampooed my hair as I normally would, and then
squirt out a decent half handful amount worth of L'Oreal Hair Expertise
Everstrong Conditioner Hydrate.
The conditioner is thick, and the minty formula does tingle the scalp a
little if you rub it in well enough. The overall feeling and scent is
just refreshing and clean.
After rinsing my hair felt really soft, free of tangles, and slick. I hoped it would dry as nice as it felt while still wet.
Results:
Well the scent does not last, it rinses away while you wash out the
conditioner, which was a bummer because the scent is definitely an
enjoyable one.
I styled my hair as I usually would, but noticed that as it dried it
was more puffy and frizzy than it has been in a very long time. I was
beyond angry by this, because I have naturally frizzy prone hair to
begin with, and this conditioner just seemed to amp up the puffiness,
and frizzy look and feel.
I assume this is volume, or added body, but not the right kind of volume or body anyone would want for their hair.
Overall:
Disappointed. A great scent, but as far as results go my hair was
frizzy and puffy on a day when humidity was not even present in the air.
If frizz is what you are looking for then go ahead and buy this one, if
not skip it. I had to use Pantene Frizzy to Smooth Conditioner just to
smooth out the puff and frizz this conditioner left behind.
