Review: John Frieda Frizz-Ease Straight Ahead Shampoo and Conditioner


I've been on the search for the perfect shampoo and conditioner for quite a while now. I have long hair that goes just past my chest. It isn't very thick but I do have a lot of it. In its natural state it is very curly and my hair hair concern is frizz so whenever I buy hair products I look for products that claim to help with this. I have always heard good things about John Frieda products so when I last needed a shampoo and conditioner I thought I would buy from their frizz-ease line. I chose these straight-ahead version as I mostly like to wear my hair straight rather than curly.

Shampoo
When I use the shampoo the first thing I notice is how clean it leaves my hair feeling. It is also gentle enough to use for my double-wash, which is a major bonus as I hate having to use a different shampoo for the first wash than for the second. I also like the scent of the shampoo- it is very clean with a slight floral scent which isn't too overpowering.

Conditioner
I love using this conditioner as it always makes my hair feel super soft! It also makes my hair manageable and it is much easier to brush through when wet if I have used this. I do find it weighs my hair down if I use too much, but then I find this is an issue with a lot of conditioners.

After Style My Hair
After washing my hair I like to blow dry it straight as I have been trying to not use straighteners (in fact I haven't used straighteners since September). I have found that this shampoo and conditioner really helps to make my hair dry a lot straighter, and it stays straight until the next wash. Unfortunately I can't say that they have helped much with frizz, as I still have to use anti-frizz finishing products, and as this is supposed to be the main benefit of this line it is a disappointment.

Will I Buy Again?
Probably not as, despite it leaving my hair soft and straight without weighing it down, it doesn't help with the frizz which was the main reason I bought it.

You can buy the shampoo for £5.59 Here and the conditioner for £5.59 Here.
