Garnier Fructis Hair Filler + Ceramide Sulfate-Free Shampoo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so surprised by how great this shampoo is! It got such a great lather right away, and I didn't feel like I needed to go for a 2nd shampoo. I am sold on this system, overall! My hair has never looked so amazing after just an air dry!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just like the rest of the products, the shampoo doesn’t disappoint. The first thing I notice is how much it ladders. I am a big ladder person and this gives you some bang for your buck. You only have to use a little bit, which is also nice. There’s a subtle sun and it smells pretty much like the rest of the Garnier products if you’ve used them before. It rinses, cleanly and quickly, which is also nice. I really don’t have any negatives to say about this whole line. I was pretty impressed, especially for it being a drugstore shampoo product. I usually use higher end hair products but this is comparable I’d bit better than sone I have used before!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In exchange for my honest opinion, I was given the opportunity to try Garnier Fructis Hair Filler+ Ceramide Color Repair Treatment regimen courtesy of Influenster and Garnier. The products I received came neatly packaged in a big box with the Garnier Fructis hair treatment advertisement on the outside cover. Inside, were 4 pale green colored, full-sized bottles of Garnier Fructis products. * Hair Filler + Bonding, Inner Fiber Repair Treatment (rinse out/pre-shampoo) * Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair Shampoo * Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair Conditioner * Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair Serum My hair is rather long, thin and straight. I’m naturally blonde, with a small patch of silver/grey, and a mix of highlights and lowlights that i desperately need to have redone and trimmed again soon. While I would describe my hair as normal, my tips get extremely dry quickly. Due to being disabled, I don’t typically wash my hair more than once or twice a week. I have used and reviewed on Influenster another hair bonding treatment system, and was excited to try the new Hair Filler + Ceramide treatment system by Garnier Fructis. My first use of the Garnier Fructis treatment I received left me with mixed feelings. The majority of my hair was left very soft and easy to manage following the treatment and lightly blowing dry. The coloring of my various highlights and lowlights really seemed to be brighter and blended together nicely. Even the silver strands of hair blended beautifully with the rest of my hair, they almost looked like highlights and were very soft. Unfortunately, the ends of my hair were extremely dry, drier than I’ve ever seen for my hair… so much so that my husband noticed and made mention to how frizzy my hair looked. I added a bit of an argon oil mix to the tips to help with the severe dryness, but ultimately know that my hair is also in desperate need of a good trim. I had hoped to have better results with my next hair washing using the Garnier Fructis Hair Filler+ Ceramide treatment, but due to unforeseen circumstances regarding my health and some fractured ribs, I would have to wait over a month to utilize the entire treatment again. I decided to delay my review until I had at least given the entire treatment line a second try. I did use the Hair Filler+ Ceramide Color Repair Serum on my dry hair and also on slightly dampened hair several times on days I didn’t wash my hair and it left my hair pleasantly soft and smooth. My second use of the entire Garnier Fructis Hair Filler+ treatment line was more positive than the first. Firstly, I notice I had much less hair fall out throughout the washing process and afterwards while brushing out my hair, which is a really big win for me. My hair had virtually zero tangles whether I was just running my fingers through my wet hair or while using my Wet Brush. I did however notice again how dry the ends were and added my oil to the tips following the serum. I also added a heat protectant this time, as I realized that the Hair Filler+ Ceramide Color Repair Serum is just a serum and offers no heat protection. Once lightly blown dry (scalp areas only), I left the lengths of my hair to air dry. Again, my hair was left very soft and easily managed without feeling weighted down, especially with the added products. The coloring throughout my hair looked even better than the first time, my highlights really popped and my silver hairs blended in well. My overall experience using the Garnier Fructis Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair treatment was a positive one. I believe I might have better results using the Hyaluronic Moisture Repair treatment system offered by Garnier Fructis. The entire Hair Filler + Color Repair treatment comes in 4 attractive pale green, easy to open push-top cap bottles, with a silvery-colored block containing the name of each product. The bottles also come in varying shapes and sizes, making them even easier to identify and distinguish from one another. The entire line is very lightly scented with a delicately sweet, sugary fruit and floral aroma. Hair Filler + Bonding, Inner Fiber Repair Treatment (rinse out/pre-shampoo) - This pre-shampoo treatment comes in a nice larger sized, round bottle. (10.1 fl. oz) The product is a thick, white, rich and creamy consistency, not too thin, yet easily dispensable, and spreads well and also stays adhered to hair extremely well. Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair Shampoo - The bottles for the shampoo and conditioner are the same rectangular shape and size. (10.1 fl. oz) This shampoo is a thick and clear gel-like consistency. The shampoo works up to a nice rich lather and rinses out well. Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair Conditioner - (10.1 fl. oz) This conditioner has a white rich, creamy consistency and works easily onto hair lengths without being too thin and runny. Hair Filler + Ceramide Color Repair Serum - the smallest of the bottles (3.8 fl. oz), rectangular shape similar to the shampoo and conditioner. The product is a much thinner, white consistency compared to the other products in the line. It is easily distributed throughout hair, and doesn’t leave my hair feeling weighted down. THIS IS NOT A HEAT PROTECTANT

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this product free in exchange for my honest opinion. I was only given a month to review and wish I had a few more weeks to use it. My hair is soft and shiny after using, and my color is slightly more vibrant. Going to keep using because I love that it doesn’t have sulfates and other harmful ingredients. I’ve gotten compliments on my hair also :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] *I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review* I have used this product for about a month 28 days, and I have to say I have noticed an incredible difference in my hair since using this product. I typically shampoo twice a week, sometimes 3 as I’ve just moved from a humid climate to the other side of the world to a dry climate! I have bleached lived in blonde hair (which desperately needs a cut) and the 4 step step treatment from Garniers Fructis Hair Filler Line has been a great addition to my routine and I will be continuing to buy. We love a surface free, cruelty free, vegan product. The bottle is also made from 100% recycled plastic! Step 2: Color Repair Shampoo This shampoo is great, smells great, lathers well, easy to double shampoo with if you need to. The shampoo really makes my hair feel clean and cleansed. I only wash at the scalp and I let the run off do the rest. Overall I rate my experience 9/10, the one point of the pre shampoo if the product was less creamy and could be applied to damp rather than wet hair would mean I’d use this everytime. Sometimes standing on the shower wet for 5 minutes for a pre treatment is frustrating which is why I omit this once a week. Otherwise I’m loving the way my hair looks and feels even tho I haven’t seen my hairdresser in months (you can tell by my ends!) and feels softer and cleaner and my blonde looks way more vibrant!
