I like to experiment with a wide variety of shampoos and conditioners from time to time (when I get paid :) ) and the reality is sometimes cheaper brands can really do the trick and provide an alternative to more expensive, (overpriced) products. My biggest pet peeve is overpaying because as a student, and a rather tight one at that, I cannot justify spending amounts on products that are for my hair. A really good example of cheap and cheerful products are the Alberto Basalm- strawberries and cream shampoo and conditioner. They retail at about £1.20 each and smell amazing, they personally remind me of strawberry calpol when I was a child so I adore the smell. This is a good,- cheap and cheerful product, and although you shouldn't expect revitalised, nourished hair it does the job and leaves your hair feeling clean and relatively soft! I recommend NOT using them together if you are looking to make your hair picture perfect, but combining them with other products will make them more effective. Products like these are great for holidays, quick showers, diluting your monthly beauty expenditure, or just to have handy if you have countless people over!
What is your greatest cheap and cheerful product? MimMe x
I've used the conditioner before just on the ends of my hair, purely for the smell! They remind me of calpol too!!
