Avon Absolute Strength 2-in-1 Shampoo-Conditioner Review: A Total Game-Changer for Volume and Repair, but Falls Short on Moisture

summarizeEditor's Summary

I'm obsessed with Avon's Absolute Strength 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner - it's a total lifesaver for busy days. The natural ingredients like apricot kernel extract and shea butter really deliver on strengthening and restoring my hair's natural strength. However, I do wish it provided a bit more moisture, especially after washing. It's a great value for money, with eco-friendly packaging and a convenient 2-in-1 formula. But, I gotta say, the lack of moisture is a bit of a letdown. I've been using it for a while now, and I've noticed some amazing results - my hair feels softer, looks thicker, and has way less frizz. But, if you have super dry or damaged hair, you might want to look elsewhere. And, if you're sensitive, be careful not to use it too often.

When I looked at the ingredients, I was happy to see that the product contains shea butter, which is a great ingredient for hair care. But it's worth noting that the apricot kernel extract is actually from a different fruit, and it still has a positive effect on the hair.

✔️ Butyrospermum Parkii Butter - This is the shea butter. It's used in hair care products to regenerate damaged hair (e.g. after dyeing or chemical treatments). It's very effective in caring for dry and brittle hair.

✔️ Prunus Armeniaca Fruit Extract - This helps maintain the level of collagen and elastin, which is necessary for healthy, shiny hair.

The product also contains organic ingredients based on natural coconut oil, which is a great bonus.

✔️ Cocamidopropyl Betaine - This is a foaming agent and conditioner.

✔️ Cocamid MEA - it's also a foaming agent and emulsifier, an organic surface-active agent based on natural coconut oil.

Ingredients:

WATER, LAURYL SULFATE, COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE, COCAMID MEA, CETYL ALCOHOL, SODIUM CHLORIDE, DIMETHICONE, HYDROXYPROPYLTRIMONIUM CHLORIDE GUAR, DISTEARYL GLYCOL, PARFUMED WATER, DIPOTASSIUM EDTA, BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII BUTTER EXTRACT, CITRIC ACID, DENATURATED ALCOHOL, METHYLISOTHIAZOLINONE, VACCINIUM MYRTILLUS FRUIT EXTRACT, METHYLISOTHIAZOLINONE, CI 15510, CI 19140, LIMONENE, HEXYL CINNAMAL.

One thing that caught my attention was the packaging. The bottle is made of opaque recycled plastic, and the screw-top cap has a flip-top lid.

When it comes to sensory characteristics, the color is orange and semi-transparent, with no pigment.

The scent isn't cloyingly sweet, it has light notes of apricot.The texture is gel-like and semi-liquid, and the application is economical.

It produces a rich, dense foam.

The texture is pleasant, spreads well over the hair, and it lathers beautifully.

My first impressions. I was really happy to find out that this shampoo actually contains conditioner, and you can use it without an extra treatment. My hair stayed soft during and after washing.

The shampoo does a great job of cleaning my hair and rinsing out completely, leaving no residue behind.

After using this shampoo, I noticed that my hair gained extra volume, and my ponytail looked fuller.

I love the effect of clean, healthy-looking hair that lasts for a long time. This shampoo doesn't weigh my hair down or make it look greasy.

I also noticed a significant reduction in split ends. My hair at the ends feels more flexible now.

I was really looking forward to the apricot scent, but unfortunately, it disappears once you apply the shampoo to your hair. I'm not sure if it's because of the styling products I use, but the scent is barely noticeable after the first application.

One thing that bothered me was the lack of moisturizing in the shampoo. I have to use a separate leave-in conditioner to prevent frizz and tangles.

My rating: 9/10. I deducted points for the downsides, but the positive effects of this shampoo are definitely worth it.

Verdict: Avon's 'Absolute Strength' 2-in-1 shampoo-conditioner has been a game-changer for me. It's given my hair a noticeable boost in volume and restored its natural texture from roots to ends. The only downside is the fleeting scent, but that's not a deal-breaker for me. I do wish the shampoo provided more moisturizing, so I use a separate leave-in conditioner to get the desired results. Check out Avon's 'Absolute Nutrition' 100ml leave-in conditioner - it's a must-have for damaged hair.
