    Personally I more or less use this (and other L'Oréal stuff) exclusively because it's probably the easiest brand to find in France. I use the Triple Nutrition conditioner, which is cone-free and all other nasties-free here in France, for now at least.
    Pros: I started co-washing with this and leaving some in, it leaves my hair soft, with defined curls. I love the feel of it on my hair, and the look, too. Affordable on teenage pocket money. Easily found. Works fine.
    Cons: Smells great under the shower, but when applied to dry hair not so great. Too small bottle. And I believe l'Oréal (parent company) tests on animals.
    You cannot prevent the birds of sadness from passing over your head, but you can prevent their making a nest in your hair.

    Sadly, no. Weird waxy feeling here, too.

    I've used Fructis and I noticed my hair much drier. I had to change over to something more hydrating and my fellow stylists strongly recommended using "Pro Naturals Moroccan Argan Oil Hair Shampoo". They also have a conditioner and the Argan oil which is also a heat protectant. This shampoo cleanses and nourishes hair, restores damaged strands back to health and provides color protection, plus it leaves my hair soft, silky and shiny. If your hair is fine, dry or frizzy then I highly recommend this shampoo!

    I use the Sleek and Shine kind and I love it- it's one of the few conditioners I've used that doesn't make it waxy or sticky. It is coney, but my hair likes it. I haven't tried GFTN. The only other one I've tried is the Pure and Clean kind, which I really hated.

    Add me to the list that end up with Sticky, waxy, crunchy hair.
    I have no idea why, but that's what it does to mine personally. =/
    I used to use all the Garnier products pretty heavily and I don't know if my hair changed or they did, but a couple years ago my hair just turned to hating it. *shrug*

    I have used both of those products you mentioned I used the yellow bottle of redkin for a short period of time but ended up going back to frutis products because they didn't cost as much and worked I think better than the redkin (yellow bottle).I now use aubrey organics though.

    I haven't used it in a few years now but I used to love it! I loved the scent and how it made my hair feel...but it sounds like they reformulated it in some posts others have made
    Taking an LHC break.

    I should know this. Probably. No, definitely.

    This stuff did weird and icky things to my hair. The top 2 - 3 inches looked and felt greasy and the rest of it was gummy, sticky, and coated feeling.

    I'm not a huge fan of Garnier Fructis hair products. I've tried a couple, and they were OK, but nothing worth writing home about, KWIM?
