Horrible drying damaging. Ruined my hair – this product was so damaging it has stripped my hair of moisture and caused it to become brittle and sticky. Had to chop a huge chunk off that got so dry and knotted, there was no way to detangle. It’s likely the sodium chloride. I’ll never be able to repair it Show details
Disappointing product – I bought this shampoo a few years ago and it was fantastic. I then couldn't find it anywhere but in Nov 2021 I found it again in Big W and bought 4 tubes. I don't know what they have done to it whilst it was 'off the market' but my hair is now sticky and needs washing again after two days! This shampoo was previously so good, I only needed to… Read more
shampoo my hair once a week. I will give the unopened tubes to a charity shop and never buy this product again. I am bitterly disappointed that what was such a great shampoo has changed for the worst.
Worst. Hair. Product. Ever – I used both the shampoo & the conditioner. I prefer sulfate free hair products & like coconut oil so I thought this would be great. At &10 each, it’s not cheap. The shampoo is awful. No fragrance, no lather. I had to use 4x more product just to clean my hair. The conditioner has the viscosity of [censored word removed] LOL so that’s unappealing to… Read more
say the least & it almost ran through my fingers before I could get it on my head. It untangled the hair but after rinsing my hair felt hard & wiry, Absolutely disappointing and quite revolting tbh. It takes a lot for me to rate things this poorly but I don’t want others to have high expectations that these products just don’t deliver.
Terrible – It left my scalp with build up and my hair oily and slick. My hair did not feel clean after use.would not recommend. Probably the worst I’ve come across unfortunately Show details
Terrible reaction – I have very dry hair and thought I would choose a conditioner with less chemicals. This conditioner, on first use, caused a terribly painful reaction on my ears. They were swollen, blistered, red and itchy and caused me a lot of pain. At the time I did not realise this conditioner was the problem, thinking it was something I may have eaten as… Read more
the swelling did not occur immediately. So I waited as few weeks and tried the conditioner again. This time it affected my forehead, hairline and all around my eyes. I had an itchy red rash that was stinging and very hot and painful. My eyes were puffy and sore. I went to the doctor who thought it may have been shingles but the test for this was negative. This is Day 4 and I still have the rash, my eyes are very sore and my skin is till itchy but it is drying up and has not got worse. I do not recommend this product even if you don't usually have allergic reactions.
Terrible – This shampoo came highly recommended by a staff member in a Priceline store. I needed new shampoo for our family and decided to give it a go as it was on special. This shampoo says Moisture Surge, thinking this would give us a moisture boast for our hair its done the opposite -- nothing. You need alot of shampoo to get it to lather up… Read more
and wash the hair.
All 4 of us have used, we all have different hair types:
Me: Dry, curly hair
My Partner and daughter: dead straight hair
Eldest daughter thick wavy straight hair
It has not done anything for us, the shampoo leaves hair feeling very brittle, dry and thirsty for moisture.
Even though we use treatments on our hair the shampoo is terrible, and I am forever scratching my head because its too drying on my scalp.
Disappointing outcome for us.
This is why I only gave it 1 star.
December 19th 2018 Update: Does not work
This conditioner compliments the Moisture Surge Shampoo by Natural Instinct however, does not work at all.
I bought this hoping it would give our hair a big moisture boast but it hasn't.
Its feels soft but it leaves our hair very dry and brittle.
it has not lived up to anything.
I cannot wait to replace it with another product.
Thos is one of the worst products I've ever used – I have extremely sensitive skin, so when I see "hypoallergenic" and "for sensitive skin" I get excited. I used the conditioner expecting to finally put an end to the itching caused by washing my hair, only to receive the worst allergic reaction I've ever gotten from any hair product I've used.
Poor Shampoo, Great Conditioner! – I used the shampoo but I was disappointed to see that it hardly makes any foam and it doesn't actually clean the hair. After washing it with another shampoo, I used the conditioner and I was happy with it. I could comb my hair easily and it leaves the hair moisturized and lightly scented. I would recommend the conditioner, but the shampoo needs to be improved.
Something wrong with this product – Using the shampoo and conditioner. I am not sure why but my hair looks really oily after I use this product. Trying to dry it and there is a residue in my hair, even after I wash and rinse it thoroughly. I am using more product to lather it as I thought that may help. Using little product just felt like my hair was an oily mess. I won't buy this… Read more
product again and will be alternating it with something else I know works well. My hair is semi fine but I have a fair bit of it.
Please note, that it seems after further use, this product seems to work best when your hair is… Read more
Great value shampoo – My review is for the new packaging (beige bottle) and there is text which says "new improved formula". I have used lots of sulphate-free shampoos and some of them are so watery that they don't feel like they cleanse my hair and scalp. Natural Instinct Natural Shampoo has a good lather considering it is not a chemical-based shampoo. The… Read more
shampoo has a subtle scent which is pleasant. I have very dry hair and when I used the shampoo, I didn't feel that my hair was more dry after using it.
The Natural Instinct Natural Shampoo represents great value for money. The 500ml pump bottle lasted me a long time.
This product was perfect the way it was!!! – You should not have changed the shampoo it's just awful. I will no longer buy this product. Leaves my hair in a terrible state. Looks like I havnt washed it at all. Change it back
