Herbal Essences Hello Hydration 2 in 1 Shampoo+Conditioner Review

So, a few months back (umm November last year to be precise) ,on reading promising reviews on Herbal essence Hello Hydration shampoo I badly wanted to try it.The pearly blue color was an instant attraction for me ! But unfortunately the shampoo was out of stock and only this one which claimed to have shampoo and conditioner was left. Am not a big fan of these shampoo-conditioner combo's , but the packaging made me buy it! I had used it regularly for one month.. untill I got my Holy grail shampoo. Now am using this on n off .

What Herbal Essences say about Hello Hydration 2 in 1 Shampoo+Conditioner-
Can't wait for conditioning, huh? well, busy bee, get your shampoo conditioner benefits in one step. just squeeze my shampoo conditioner 2 in 1 formula in. I'm full of lush moisturizers that rinse clean. replenish and refresh your pretty parched head with my formula of moisturizers that has a fusion of Hawaiian coconut and orchid. say when, for silky, supple hair. to be mighty hydrated, add Hello Hydration conditioner.

What I Liked about Herbal Essence Hello Hydration  2 in 1 Shampoo +Conditioner-

• Love that pearly blue color of the shampoo with a divine smell ,the fragrance lingers on the whole day
• You get a large amount of the product for the price and its easily available
• Consistency is a bit thick, not way to runny.Lathers up well
• Moisturizes hair to some extent,my hair felt soft on use but you need to use a separate conditioner for better result
• Tangles are not a problem with this shampoo
• I generally have two washes while shampooing. It cleans oil and dirt well
• I like the packaging, the transparent big bottle, slightly curved with a flip flop cap with nozzle disperses adequate amount. Also you can open up the screw cap when the shampoo is almost finished to utilise the remaining

What I didn't Like about Herbal Essence's Hello Hydration 2 in 1 Shampoo+Conditioner-

• For my sweaty, oily scalp..this doesn't do any help. I feel my hair heavy and greasy the very next day.
• For my dry hair ends I absolutely need a conditioner
• As it has SLS and Silicones ,over a period of use, it made my hair more flat and straight and I lost my curls .no bounce ! no volume ! :'(
• Some may feel the fragrances to be overwhelming

My rating -3/5

Final Verdict- I won't recommend this. It's a average product,nothing exciting about it. May be the shampoo only would have been better than this 2 in 1 thingy. Except for the good packaging and divine smell I don't think it does good for any hair type
