I finally have the shampoo and conditioner I've been looking for. My baby fine, limp hair is so much better with Grow Strong Thickening. It helps my hair to be stronger while thickening at the same time. I can't believe the difference after just one use. Please don't discontinue it! When I find something I love it always seems to get discontinued. This is a keeper!!!

Allergic reaction hives
TP23
3 years ago
Tried this shampoo because it smelled good. Used it twice. Ended up with hives on my entire body. Had to go to ER and get a steriod shot and medications. I've never had an allergic reaction before and my skin isn't sensitive. I found other reviews stating they got hives or rashes too. Wish I'd known before using this. I'm miserable. Hoping this clears up soon. I cant live like this! This should be pulled from shelves. DON'T RISK IT!!

Damaged And Dried Hair
9 months ago
Wanted to try a new shampoo and conditioner for thin/fine hair since I'm always looking for more volume. Decided to give this is a try. And boy do I regret it!! Didn't realize this was sulfate free until after the fact (sulfate free shampoos are horrible). Left my hair dehydrated and staticky, and I started noticing breakage immediately upon brushing the next morning!! Also the nice citrus smell has become kind of acrid. Not sure what happened here but this shampoo and conditioner were NOT it!! Doing a deep clarifying cleanse and hydrating hair mask to remove and begin repairing damage. Do not recommend this for fine hair!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Smells good,poor substitute for volumizing shampoo
a year ago
Very disappointed by this brand. As a man with formerly long hair, the previously long discontinued length and strength product (original formulation) actually helped to make my hair stronger and grow faster. Not just buzzwords from a typical hair care company. Over the years as my hair has thinned in my late 30s, I've found their volumizing shampoo Full and Plush to be great at helping my fine straight hair look thicker and healthier. I've just now seen that was discontinued too. This has been my go to brand for many many years. This thickening shampoo smells good, but it's definitely not a volumizing shampoo. There doesn't seem to be any volumizing products in the current lineup. I don't know who's making this decisions at Garnier, but they clearly aren't listening to their consumer base.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I'm 72 and have always had fine hair. Over the years, I've tried many, many volumizing products. Then I tried your shampoo with Biotin. It's the first time my hair has actually felt thicker, stronger, and healthier. I'm hooked. Apparently others are too. I tried 2 stores yesterday and they don't have it. I was concerned you took it off the market so I'll be buying it on line from now on. Great product!

Stay Away!
2 years ago
This has to be one of the worst shampoos I’ve ever used! I have the 3 step system: shampoo, conditioner, and leave in spray.
1) I am losing my hair in small clumps. Shredding and breakage is at an all time high.
2) Leaves my hair so greasy and heavy.
3) My hair is not thicker at all, in fact it’s thinner from the breakage and hair fall out.
4) Im starting to develop a scalp painful irritation that I’ll have to consult a dr to treat.
Please just stay away, if you like your hair choose another shampoo system.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Not What It Is Cracked Up To Be
2 years ago
Hello Ladies!
My first introduction to Garnier Products was about a year ago. My former brand discontinued their Fresh & Clean shampoo.
I too have fine hair, I scouted out all the available products on the market. It was then, that I discovered Garnier line of hair shampoos conditioners and sprays.
I purchased a 12.5 Fl Oz bottle of the Grow Stong thicken shampoo. I enjoyed the scent and lather. I liked it so much, that I bought their larger bottle 38.8 flowing ounces of the Grow Strong thickening shampoo. This was a mistake. I immediately noticed that, even though the scent was the same, the lather expected was diminished. In short, the product has been watered down. Then after a month and a half I noticed that my hair started to become dry. By default, I have oily hair so I knew there was a problem. I have chosen a discontinue further use of this product.
Before I reached the drying out stage, I noticed little change in my hair. I even allowed the shampoo to stay in my hair, as I washed the rest of my body. And still no change.
If you’re looking for a product to make a change to the actual hair follicle, you need to have an add-in that stays in your hair and is activated when heat is applied. For example, years ago, there was a product named Thickette. That product worked like a charm, unfortunately, it has been discontinued.

My hair is growing strong
2 years ago
I had long thick hair but with stress and tight hairstyles I’ve started to thin along my hairline and throughout. I started using the grow strong thickening shampoo and it’s incredible. My hair is growing so fast everywhere not just along my hairline but also throughout. I’ve been using it for a month and the results are amazing. I suffered with dandruff and this shampoo does not cause any buildup or leave a residue feeling, it smells amazing long after washing and feels light in my hair. I have oily hair and it keeps my hair soft all day and doesn’t become oily whatsoever.
