Garnier Fructic 3 minute masque

FructiS, sorry for the type-o.

Ok, so I'm lurking in the hair care aisle at CVS last week (I had gone there for something entirely different, of course--hehe) and I start looking at the deep conditioners and decide that I need one. I grabbed a kolestrol hot oil treatment multi-pack, and then found my attention drawn to this little bright green jar. I picked it up and read the claims and ingredients, and they sounded good.

I opened the little jar and took a whiff. I was immediately seduced by the smell: clean, fruity, gorgeous!!! I checked the price, and found it to be reasonable, so I brought it home.

It's as good as any nice cone-based deep conditioner and the smell alone makes it worth it. What a smell! I also really like the consistency, it's a nice thick white cream that coats the hair nicely, leaving it soft and untangled.

If you like cone rinse-out conditioners and are attracted to deliciously fruity scents, you will really like this product. I recommend it.

That's interesting. I tried their shampoo and conditioner and was thoroughly unimpressed. It seemed to dry my hair out. I stopped using it months ago, so I can't remember much more.

I clearly grabbed the wrong product! I think I've swayed myself into believing that I've finally cured my hair of the severe damage that once plagued it, and thus I no longer need deep conditioners. But on the other hand, I use jojoba oil all the time, so... that has similar benefits to a deep conditioner, I think.

Thanks for the review Elissa!

Yes, yes, yes!!! I love this stuff, its smell, the way it feels, the greenness of the jar, just about everything, and I have for a few years now.
And yes, SG, it's definitely better than the shampoo.

I think I mentioned this stuff a few months ago in another thread (can't remember which one though). It's so great to hear I'm not the only one who's enjoying it!

The bright green jar must draw us to it, because I had no intention of purchasing any hair masques the day I went into CVS a couple of months ago and had to purchase it (I also love the aroma of it -- very clean and fruity).

I've been using it once a week for several months, and I do like what it does to my hair. Since my hair is fine, I don't want a product to weigh it down, and this one doesn't over-condition, but it does make my hair softer and more manageable.

I also recommend it.
