L’Oreal Fibralogy Thickening Shampoo, Booster & Conditioner

According to the L’Oreal Paris website, hair that lacks thickness is limp, hard to manage and gets greasy quickly. The L’Oreal Fibralogy line formulas feature a substance called Filloxane, a molecule that is meant to penetrate the hair fibre and then expand to create thickness.  L’Oreal says that after 1 use, hair feels thicker and after 5 uses hair is thicker. 

I don’t think my hair is truly “fine” or “limp”, it’s definitely hard to manage and gets greasy very quickly. Meeting two of the “lacks thickness” criteria makes me a thin-ish haired kinda gal. 

Since I’m no scientist, I’m not going to bother babbling about the molecular structure of this Filloxane thing. What really matters is if the product works.

Thickening features aside, the L’Oreal Fibralogy Shampoo and Conditioner ($7.99 each) are a solid cleansing/conditioning duo. For the past three weeks, it’s kept my hair feeling clean, strong, shiny and split-end free. Though my hair doesn’t feel “thicker”, it does look and feel more volumized, with a little more body to it than last month.  I’m happy that the “fine” features of my hair have diminished. Using the Fibralogy line, I can go up to 3 days without washing my hair. 

On the negative, it doesn’t make my hair feel as soft or silky as some other shampoos nor does my hair feel thicker (though it does look thicker). In fact, for me, use of the Thickening Booster ($8.99) before conditioner and after shampoo 2x per week doesn’t really add an extra va-va-voom to the thickening effect of the other two products.  

Overall, a great shampoo that gives my hair lots of volume and lessens my greasiness. It didn’t do much “thickening” but I’m almost sure that if your hair was finer than mine it would do you some good! 

Have you tried the L'Oreal Fibralogy line? Do you have fine hair?
