Spotlight on Pantene Pro-V Repair and Protect Shampoo and Conditioner



When you receive a press release that starts with the words “we  are all too familiar with the frustration of bad hair days” you have to read on just in case this could be the miracle that could banish them forever. 

Sadly, it seems the 'miracle' will not get rid of them completely, but the message goes on to say: “Pantene Prov-V scientists have made it their mission to give you your best-ever hair day.”

So, I had to put the Pantene Pro-V Repair and Protect Shampoo (£2.99) and Conditioner (£2.99) to the test.





The range’s updated formula boasts Antioxidant Damage Blocker technology which, the company says, reduces hair breakage.




Apparently, with every wash our hair is exposed to oxidation damage that can come from copper present in tap water. Reducing copper, according to Pantene, helps prevent the formation of free radicals that can harm the hair’s proteins.

The company goes on to say that with regular use the condition of the hair can improve. Sounds, good, I can hear you say, but does it live up to its claims?

Well, I washed my hair a few times with it and followed with the conditioner. It felt lovely and soft. I still have some bad hair days, but to be honest that is my hair texture, but these products did improve the look and feel and really that is all I can ask for.
