It was fabulous! I recieved some samples from garnier to try and fell in love. The product has a light fragrant smell and a smooth creamy feel. Have you heard of reverse washing? I tried it with these product and the results were fantastic. I went from dryish frizzy hair to smooth shiny hair. I didnt think i would see my hair shine that way! I recommend trying this product to see if it does wonders for you hair like it did mine. :)

Allergic and not happy

I have been using Garnier Fructid Grow Strong for years, but, I am allergic to whatever has been added to this new formula. I guess it's time to find a new product. I just don't understand why people have to change a good product.

No breakage!
a year ago
I have experienced no breakage. This product also smells very good. I was recently using the pure clean and definitely have to get the third step which is the leave-in ten in one.
Product Works Well ForStraight Hair, Fine Hair, Thick Hair
I refuse to use this newer product! If they will no longer produce Triple Nutrition I'm leaving the brand after MANY years.

Hair Loss Warning
a year ago
I've been using Garnier products for almost 15yrs now and never had any issues till this. I proudly had 3ft of wavy hair, and after using this shampoo + conditioner for less than a month, I've lost almost half my hair density! It's taken so many years of patience and careful care to get my hair to the length I like and now it doesn't even matter because its falling out so quickly.
No, I do not recommend this product.

HAIR THINNING SHAMPOO

If making your customers go bald was the goal, you succeeded. My hair was thicker before using this line. Now it's half the density. I'm thankful I stopped before going completely BALD. I will never buy ANY products from this brand ever again.

I have been using shampoo with Biotin for my thin hair. Instead of growing stronger or thicker hair
it was the opposite! I decided to try Garnier Grow Strong shampoo. I have been using this shampoo
for a month now. So far, I have seen my hair is stronger and thicker!! This shampoo has done miracle
for my hair! Thank you, Garnier...
Q: Hi, what is the percentage of salicylic acid in this shampoo? Also, is this safe for everyday use? Lastly, is it good for fine hair?
GaryGarya year ago
1 AnswerAnswer this Question
A: Hi there GaryGary! Thank you for your interest in Grow Strong Shampoo. The ingredients in this shampoo are not listed by percentage.
Grow Strong Niacinamide is an anti-breakage system. For up to 72 hours of thicker and fuller looking hair, we recommend the Grow Strong Thickening system of Grow Strong Thickening Shampoo, Grow Strong Thickening Conditioner, and Grow Strong Thickening 10-in-1 Leave-In Spray.
These products are recommended for weak, fragile, frizzy hair.

Q: Where the expiry date is printed in 1 litre bottle?
Pree1997a year ago
1 AnswerAnswer this Question
A: Hi there Pree1997, we appreciate knowing about finding an expiration date on our shampoo. All of our shampoos have a long shelf life and are good for at least 3 years if un opened. For this reason, none of our shampoos have expiration dates. Once you begin to use the shampoo, it should be good for about a year. The appearance and smell of a product is the best way to judge if its out dated. As long as it smells and looks the way it normally does, its fine to use.
