    I received this product along with the complementing masque through the Product Review Club. Thanks L'Oreal!

    I have used this for a few days (along with the masque) and it's made a huge difference in my hair! For Valentine's Day, I curled my hair and it made the ends of my hair extremely dry. Using this shampoo and the masque has made my hair so much better and softer. It feels healthier too!


    Claims:
    - Repairs hair structure
    - Adds strength and volume
    - UV filters


    Pros:
    - The packaging. I love this style of packaging because it is in a flip cap (no water will get in) and also I won't have to squeeze like a madman during my shower to get the product out!

    - The viscosity of the product itself. It's not a gel that takes forever to slide down in the bottle, instead it's a creamy shampoo, which I absolutely love.

    - The scent. It smells exactly like the masque. The scent isn't very strong or chemical-y.

    - The difference it made on my hair after the first use (along with the masque). There was a noticeable difference in the softness of my hair!


    Cons:
    - The price. I don't think that I would have bought this product at the store because it's a little out of my regular price range for a shampoo. Although it is a salon brand and works so much better than my regular shampoo, I might consider switching!


    Overall:
    I recommend this product to anyone with damaged hair because it is very effective and the results are almost immediate! L'Oreal thanks for making my hair soft and gorgeous!

    I was very happy to try out product.

    After using this product the first time I figured out how my hair stylist gets my hair silky smooth every time I go to the salon - now I can get this salon look at home!

    I don't dye my hair but I do blow dry it and flat iron it, and with the dryness of winter my hair doesn't like to cooperate!

    I used it a couple of times without involving my regular shampoo and I did find my hair got oily slightly faster then with my regular shampoo but my hair never became frizzy nor did it give me any problems when straightening or blow drying my hair, it stayed smooth.

    I decided to use my regular shampoo again to see how long the effects of this intense repair lasts. The results for me last a full week. If I use this treatment 4 times a month, my hair will stay silky smooth using my regular shampoo in between which is fantastic.

    If you have dry or frizzy hair I would recommend this product.

    This product is great smelling, and was easy to use. Having color treated hair, and using a flat iron too, my hair felt moisturized when shampooing. I find that this product helps with managing dryness by adding moisture and it left my hair "silky smooth".

    Compared to other products, this product is thin- it doesn’t go near a far- however, it offers more results than other brands.

    I would consider purchasing the products in the future.

    I really very like this shampoo. It has a wonderful scent (I always pay attention to the scent:) which stays quite long on my hair. Love it! L'Oreal Professionnel Intense Repair Shampoo also makes my hair so soft, I even don't see any necessity to use a conditioner after that. And then I can easily comb my curly, long and thick hair.

    The only thing is that the price is a little bit high. That would be great if this wonderful shampoo would be more affordable. Though this is a very qualitive product (and I am very confident in that) but making that more affordable would be a greater idea.

    I also wanted to add, that this shampoo is one of the best one (and I tried so many:). I will recommend that to my friends, and to all the people who look for a qualitive product.

    I received this product as part of the Product Reviewers Club. At first, I was a little shocked at how small the bottles were...I was expecting a regular size bottle. However, they say that good things come in small packages and I feel that slogan works in this instance.

    My short, colored hair is usually dry and uncontrolable in the winter months. I often come home from work looking disasterous! I used this product for a week and was surprised at the results. My hair held well throughout the day and did not have as much "fly away" stray pieces as normal. I also found that I could go a day inbetween washes and my hair still had that fresh, just washed look. It added more body and an extra shine. I also used it on my daughters hair. She is 6 years old and still has fine, tangley hair that matts in the back. After using this product it was much easier to proceed with conditioner. The results on her were extremely noticalbe when it came time to comb her hair.

    The smell is not overpowering, fruity or intense. It is a soft, subtle, almost non existent smell. The lather created is thick and rich. I definetly enjoyed trying this product.

    For the price of this product (apx. $30.00) I would recommend it as a once a week treatment and not for everyday use. My budget could not handle the price of this product as an everyday habit:)

    First of all, thank you Chick Advisor for the opportunity to try this product. I can sum up my impressions of this product in just a few words, but for my own amusement and because I like to hear the click-click-click of my laptop keys, I'll say a little bit more.
    This product was absolutely WONDERFUL! I absolutely adore it!
    When I first opened that shampoo bottle, I was blown away by the delightful floral scent of the shampoo, and how light the product was. It was not heavy or thick, but light and smooth. I liked how easy it was to distribute throughout your hair and how it did not create that crazy, thick lather that some cheaper shampoos do. It was also very easy to rinse out, and left your hair feeling clean and soft.
    I also liked the conditioning product, even though honestly, it was a bit ackward to get out of that jar. I had many a mishap with dropping that jar and dodging it in the shower to be sure it didn't land on my toes. However, outside of the shower, I'm sure it would be easy enough to maneuver open. Despite that, I adored how thick and rich this conditioner was and how you did not need to use much to get an excellent result in your hair. It also rinsed out easily for me.
    What absolutely sold me on this product though was what my Hair Stylist said to me when I went to see him yesterday. I've been using nothing but this product for over two weeks, and I have not been to a Stylist since before Christmas. At the beginning of the consultation, while he was checking my hair colour and regrowth, he asked me, "What have you been using on your hair? It feels absolutely amazing! It's so healthy and soft, and so manageable, most people are having problems with dry, flyaway hair because of our dry winter, but your hair is beautiful!" I told him what I had been using, and he was most impressed.
    (Now if you can't take an expert's word for it, who can you trust, right?)
    That sold me and convinced me that what I had been seeing and feeling for the two weeks using this product was not just my imagination. This product is the real deal! I will definitely be buying it when it hits the market, and I am fortunate enough that my Hair Salon stocks and sells L'Oreal :)
    One last note, I really do love the shampoo container that this product came in. I'm hoping this is how it will be bottled when it hits the shelves. It was so easy to pick up and hold, despite my many other shampoos which have found my shampoo graveyard under my sink, and it would be so easy to travel with.
    All in all, this product was divine! Thank you for allowing me to try it!

    Thank you to Chickadvisor and L'Oreal for the chance to try the L'Oreal Professional Intense Repair Shampoo and the Intense Repair Masque.Perfect timing too as I just ran out of shampoo.

    I have brown wavy shoulder length hair that is usually dry at the ends. I started using the shampoo and hair masque last week and absolutely LOVE them!! I use the shampoo daily . It lathers well and has a nice fragrance. The Shampoo comes in a small bottle but I only need a small amount to keep my hair squeaky clean.The hair masque I use twice a week and really am amazed at how soft my hair feels those days.

    I would highly recommend to use these products in the winter for dry hair. A bit costly in my opinion.

    The first thing I noticed about the shampoo was the smell it smelled like I had been transported to a tropical island, I could hardly wait to try it out.
    When I finally go the chance to use this product I was disapointed , I didn't need much product to make my hair feel like silk even before conditioner. It left my hair soft and manageble my husband loved how touchable soft it was and smelled great .

    This product did seem a little higher in price then I would normally pay but its effectiveness made up for it and I would buy this shampoo

    The first thing I did when the L'Oreal Professional Intense Repair Shampoo and Mask showed up at my door was to open it up and smell it. Amazing. Reminds me of a summer's day, maybe a hint of watermelon? Whatever it is, it smells great and I couldn't wait to wash my hair! My hair is very dry, can get brittle, so I was hopeful that this is something that would help. I am so impressed with the results! My hair not only smells nice, but its soft, its not frizzy, it feels great! I really love this product.

    I don't like that I have to stop the shower and towel dry my hair (according to the directions) before applying the mask and having to wait for 3 minutes (I am a busy mom and don't have much time to shower) but the results are amazing. The price is a little out of my price range however, so its not a product I would be able to buy on a regular basis, but certainly something to keep on hand for the dry Alberta winters that we have.

    I received this as part of the product review club. i tried the product and i was impressed. My hair feels great! The scent is kind like coconut and banana not too overwhelmed like the masque. I like it! The texture is thick and nice. It's easy to apply and gives my hair soft even wet. It lathered well.

    I like the packaging. The color is very nice. The size of the bottle is small compared to others shampoos.

    As for the price, it's expensive. i'm used to shampoo from drugstore. I still recommend to everyone.
