Oriflame HairX Volume Boost Shampoo & Conditioner


Are you blessed with flat, thin, fine, limp hair? Well I am, and at one time or the other, I am sure that we – the wannabe Rapunzels, have tried to find ways to lift that flat hair and add some volume to it. The wide gamut of solutions ranges from getting the right haircut, trying to back-comb, to getting a root perm done. But unfortunately, each of these solutions comes with a plethora of disadvantages (root perm causing permanent damage to hair, back-combing leading to a receding hairline etc.!)

Enter, the Oriflame HairX Volume Boost range:
HairX Volume Boost Shampoo
HairX Volume Boost Hair Mask
HairX Volume Boost Leave-in Conditioner

 
What the catalogue says:
Oriflame Hair X Volume Boost Shampoo is a hard-working shampoo that changes flat, thin hair giving it more volume and bringing it back to life. By boosting the volume your hair looks and feels thicker and more healthy. It's light and adds volume from root-to-tip so it won’t weigh your hair down.

This product makes your hair look and feel beautiful - for tons of volume which brings out the true you use Hair X Volume Boost!

How it works:


 

Recommended for: Fine, thin, limp hair

I had long straight hair which used to turn limp within a day of shampooing. After trying an umpteen number of volumising products from various brands and then getting my long tresses chopped short in total frustration, I was recommended this product, and it has been a true blessing! It makes my ‘flat on top, wavy on the bottom’ type hair, much fuller and gives it a lift at the roots. I have been hooked onto it since April 2011 and I have no intentions of changing my shampoo or my conditioner. The shampoo is glowing white with a creamy texture. The consistency is not that thick, and you need to use more of it if you are washing oiled hair.  But one bottle can be easily used for almost 2 months, at 3 washes a week (lasts this long for me with my waist length hair). Also, the conditioner is a leave-in one, it comes in a dark lavender see through bottle, and is easy to apply – you can just spray it on half damp hair and let it dry out. That’s not all! Both the shampoo & the conditioner have a green apple aroma, which is totally irresistible. You can carry it in your vanity kit and spray the conditioner on before an important meeting etc, just to add a little zing to your hair!

Positives:

  • Delivers on its promise - gives the hair volume as well as shine
  • Is gentle – does not roughen your hair, even after repeated usage
  • Does not make hair feel or look oily and greasy
  • Flip top bottle packaging
  • No animal testing
  • Smells delicious
  • Not expensive – priced similar to other brands

Negatives:
  • Needs to be used in larger quantity when washing oiled hair

Price: Shampoo: Rs.249/-, Conditioner: Rs.298/- (both can be bought at additional discounts)
