I stayed at a fancy-schamcy hotel this past week and the shampoo, conditioner, lotion and body wash were Korres products, which at first inspection were natural-ish products.
Once while I was there, I shampooed and conditioned and while my hair was air drying, it felt so soft. My hair never feels soft when it's still half wet, so I was pleased.

As a result, I took full bottles and immediately put them into my suitcase every day when the room was cleaned :o
I felt a little tacky, but isn't that why we stay at hotels?

I can't wait to use again and see if this was a fluke.

Has anyone used Korres? What was your experience?

Well, I had a long reply but my ISP ate it. :(

Basically, I've tried three of their hair products and, while I finished two out of desperation, hated the third enough to chuck the last half.

The products aren't as natural as they portray themselves, either. For the big deal they make out of not having certain things, they sure do have a lot of other crap.

Eh, made my hair feel coated. Smelled nice, though.

Either too rich, or something in there didn't like my hair. Did potentially save my hair from the aftereffects of a day at the beach, though.

Ack! The smell! Also left my hair feeling crunchy.

I have Korres conditioner and like it. At first I thought the honey smell was too sweet, but it has grown on me.
The ingredient list in my conditioner is nice and natural as well.

I also used Korres products in a lovely hotel in Athens, and my hair was lighter and wavier than ever. That may have been due to the shampoo being too stripping! ;)

However, when I came back home, full bottles of products were a bit expensive... And I'm not quite sure whether it was the Korres shampoo and conditioner or the Athens water that made my hair wavy.
