A little dry but works well
Though the product felt a little dry, it still worked very well. The brand has outdone itself once more! The packaging itself is neat and tidy, while the consistency of the product smells refreshing.
Pretty good so far
So I’ve been using this for almost 2 weeks. So far I haven’t noticed a significant difference in hair thickness but I still think it’s too soon. The smell isn’t too bad but I prefer fruity scents and this is more of a mint. My hair feels nice and soft. No complaints but I still have to wait and see for more results.
Forgot to mention I got this as a sample from chickadvisor.
Nice conditioner
I only used the Vichy thickening balm a few times so far and it seems like a very nice conditioner. I will have to use longer to see any thickening effect. It has a nice peppermint smell which is different from other conditioners I’ve used. I like it because it seems to wash out well without leaving residue. My hair seems less tangled as well which may help with less breakage from brushing. If it helps to thicken my hair I would keep on using this product.
Smooth locks!
I got the chance to try this for free through Chick Advisor and after a few weeks of use, I'm still somewhat ambivalent. So, this is actually a great product...it works just like a conditioner. I massage it into my scalp and there's a nice tingling feeling that sets in and after my hair dries, it's so smooth and soft. I haven't necessarily found that it thickens my hair, but perhaps I haven't been using it long enough. The only drawback I find is the smell. It's a strong earthy smell, which I'm not used to. That being said, the smell doesn't linger and I don't smell it in my hair the next morning :). All in all, I do like this product :). #gotitfree
Takes time to work
Disclaimer: I received this product for free through chickadvisor product review club.
I would start by saying that I am on the fence with this product.
PROS: I love the effect it gives on your scalp. It has that minty tingly feeling when you leave it on there for a minute as instructed. It feels very refreshing. You do have to part your hair and make sure you really massage the scalp but it gives you that amazing “I feel super clean” feeling.
CONS: I feel like you would need to go through a lot of product to see any result. I think it’ll take a month at least to make sure that the product starts working but a tube would run out pretty quick. You may have to be pretty patient when using this product.
Would I purchase it again? Maybe. I still have a bit on the tube I have so for sure I will keep using it.
Excited to keep using this product!
I received this product to try and review for free! I was super excited to try because I have thinning hair. I have been using it for about 10 days and so far I am happy with it. I know it will take more time to see real results and I’m excited to continue to use this product. I love that it’s very simple to use! It also smells good and makes my hair feel nice afterwards!
Best for fine hair
I got this product to try for free from chickadvisor! I have used it thrice so far and feeling the difference in my hair texture. I have fine hair which lacks volume. It has a strong smell which I am not a big fan of but apart from that product quality is great and does what it claims.
More time needed to see results
I received this free from the chick advisor product review club. I have fine, thin hair, and it feels like I have tried every product on the market to try and thicken my hair, so trying a new one is something I was very much looking forward to, hoping for some results.
At first I noticed the strong, almost medicated smell of this conditioner, which is a little off putting, but maybe a sign that it will work.
I've used it for 3 days now, which for a product like this, is not really long enough to say if it works or not. If I do start to see some results, I plan to pick up the rest of this product line.
As a stand along conditioner, it does leave my hair feeling very soft and smooth, without having to use very much product at all.
Works almost instantly
I didn't even know Vichy had hair care products, I always thought vichy was skin care only. So when I receieved my Vichy restoring thickening balm I was extremely excited to test it out. After all Vichy is one of my most trusted skin care products.
I have very long wavy hair. Over the years I have dyed it, styled it with products and I've used a flat iron. One of my most concerns lately with my hair is how flat it looks. This product came to me for free in exchange for my review. I couldn't have been a better fit.
The first thing I noticed was the smell. I didnt even have to open the box to smell it. Smell is not something that bothers me. I actually prefer a strong scent. I used this as directed on the bottle. I dried and ironed my hair as usual. I could instantly feel my hair is much stronger. It also looks fuller and smells amazing.
I will definitely continue using this product.
Time will tell
I received this product free in exchange for an honest review.
It will take a few more weeks of usage before I can say whether or not it made a difference in hairfall, but for now it is at least a very nice conditioner! Unfortunately my review was wanted right away, so I have only been able to try it once.
Pros:
- nice smell
- psychological boosting "feels like it's doing something" minty tingle
- don't seem to need to use a lot of product, about half or less than I normally need for my usual conditioner
- my hair seems a little less frizzy
- my scalp feels less dry
- doesn't seem to "build up" on hair; no parabens/silicones
Cons:
- relatively expensive
- you need to use all 3 products (shampoo, conditioner, and "concentrate") to get the strengthening/fallout reducing effects
Overall, I will continue to use it and see if any improvements happen, it is supposed to start causing improvements after a few weeks. If any of my local stores decide to carry it (none of them do at this time) I will try to get the shampoo and concentrate to give it a more fair trial.
