Hey guys,
I have taken a long break. So here I am with another review.
My Hair type: thin hair, normal to dry scalp and hair.
Hair problems: Yes, hairfall
Rundown: VICHY Redensifying shampoo is especially for thin hair, makes the hair look slightly bouncy, and controls hair fall to an extent. However, this shampoo, if used alone - without a conditioner, can dry the hair too much and increase hair fall.
Read on for my full review.
My experience: When the SA in Health & Glow store suggested me this shampoo, I was quick to buy it. I had previously used Vichy's Normaderm night cream, and was satisfied with it. So I decided to try this shampoo. It has creamy consistency and is transparent in color. I usually oil my hair in the night or an hour before the shampoo. When for the first time I used this shampoo, I probably took more amount than was required, which left me with dry and frizzy hair. It continued and my hair fall didn't stop, so I discontinued using this shampoo. Later, my hair stylist taught me how to use a shampoo. She told me this "keep a small bottle, add not more than coin sized amount in it, add some water in it and then shake the bottle; then wet the hair with lukewarm drinking water, and pour the diluted shampoo on your hair, rinse it gently, not harshly." and she asked me to shampoo twice if I oil my hair. So I started following this method to wash my hair with Vichy. It worked. However, it would still dry my hair too much. So, I followed it with Wella's moisturising treatment for dry and damaged hair. Now, I have got the silky texture of my hair back and my hair fall is only 1 percent.

I can't say that the shampoo is a hero here for me, since it is not good enough on its own. But it is a decent shampoo that does its job nicely. I like that it cleans my hair well.
PROS:
1. Parabens free
2. SLS free
3. Cleanses hair well, removes all impurities and oil.
CONS:
1. Can dry your hair further if you already have dry hair.
2. It's a pricey pick if you are on budget.
Overall Verdict:
Even though this shampoo is for thin hair, either the instructions on how to use are lacking or the shampoo.
Will I recommend it?
I don't think this shampoo is THE ONE at least for me. Besides, Shampoo is a tricky business, you really need to see which suits your hair. However, if you have thin but and not very dry hair, you can buy it.
I liked the feel of Loreal Professional's absolute repair shampoo that my hair stylist used on me last time. It made my hair so soft and silky smooth that I loved touching my hair again and again. I am going to buy it next!
