Our review: "BondiBoost Rapid Repair Shampoo is a clear liquid gel that's dispensed from a plastic bottle with a pump. A little goes a long way, and the shampoo forms a rich, delicately scented lather which is a luxurious experience. Upon rinsing, my hair felt soft, tangle-free and cleansed. I followed up with BondiBoost Miracle Hair Mask, which is full of nutritious oils, including argan, abyssian, macadamia, castor and jojoba. I applied a little of the thick and creamy mask to the ends of my hair and left for 10 minutes before rinsing. Finally, I applied Bondi Boost Heavenly Hydration Serum, which is a leave-in treatment that controls frizz and adds shine. Again, you really only need a tiny amount for visible results. When dry, my hair with thicker, soft and healthy-looking with defined curls with just one wash and treatment. The products absorb wonderfully – very impressed."

Our review: "I have a halo of dry, sun-damaged hair that frizzes despite my best efforts with hair stylers and serums. So, this shampoo, which claims to treat the mid-length and ends of hair, should help hydrate that difficult top layer of dry hair.

"It's a pale honey-coloured liquid shampoo that's delicately fragranced. A small amount created a moderate lather, that was ample to thoroughly shampoo my hair. It rinsed out easily and left my hair feeling soft, cleansed and tangle-free. I let my hair dry naturally and it formed lovely defined ringlets that were soft and I could tease them out without any tangles.

"I also tried Philip Kingsley Moisture Extreme. While it's not exclusively aimed at my hair type, it did deeply nourish and soften my hair. Plus, my hair was shinier than usual. I'd definitely recommend finishing with the Philip Kingsley Elasticizer hair mask, which is a product myself and my mum have been using for years for extra deep conditioning."

A little goes a long way and it creates a lot of soft dense lather. Upon rinsing, my hair felt softer – which goes some way to combatting the hardwater area that I live in.

You don't need to use a lot and the lid delivers a small amount. Once lathered it smells wonderfully of coconut. Upon rinsing, my hair felt cleansed.

"I recommend using the Clean Curls Super Slip Detangling Conditioner after the shampoo. My hair drank up the nourishing formulation of argan, coconut and grapeseed oil. It thoroughly softened and detangled my hair. When I dried my hair it was silky smooth and soft. I'll be looking for the Clean Curls range in Superdrug, it really works on dry curly hair."
