Pantene 14 Days Challenge (Day 1 & 7)
Monday, November 28, 2011About Pantene’s 14-day Flag Off Challenge:
By committing to a 14-day haircare regimen based on your hair type, you will be able to break out of your unhealthy hair cycle, you will also be helping women in need to break out of their poverty cycle. Through its first-ever global cause initiative – Healthy Hair for Healthy Water – dedicated to empower women and their worlds to shine through clean drinking water, Pantene has pledged its commitment to health through clean drinking water.
With every participant that signs up for Pantene’s 14-day Flag Off Challenge, 14 litres of clean drinking water – the equivalent of a week’s worth of clean drinking water for one person – will be donated to communities in need, helping women and their families break out of the cycle of ill-health and poverty.
As I have finished using the previous set of Pantene Smooth and Silky shampoo and conditioner that were given to me previously, I requested for the Nature Care range instead when they offered to send me a replacement. I had wanted to try the Nature Care range when Genecia mentioned at the Pantene Roundtable that it helps to create more volume at the crown area.
Pantene Nature Care Shampoo
Pantene Nature Care Conditioner
Pantene Nature Care Intensive Penetrating Treatment
Pantene Nature Care Leave on Creme
On the first day of Pantene 14 Days Challenge, I used Pantene Nature Care Shampoo and Conditioner.
Q: How has my hair texture changed/improved?
A: I realized that my hair was softer and I could comb through my hair easily after shampooing and conditioning with Pantene Nature Care Shampoo and Conditioner.
Q: Which is my favourite product out of the whole range?
A: It gotta be Pantene Nature Care Shampoo as it makes my hair softer and it doesn't make my hair oily by the end of the day like some other shampoos does.
Unlike other shampoos, Pantene Nature Care Shampoo is clear in color but it foams and cleanse really quite without leaving my hair that dry compared to a clarifying shampoo that I normally use.
Q: How much do I like this haircare range?
A:
Pantene Nature Care Shampoo: ★★★★☆
Pantene Nature Care Conditioner: ★★★☆☆
Overall (in terms of the shampoo and conditioner): 3.5/5
Although I prefer Pantene Nature Care Shampoo compared to Pantene Smooth and Silky Shampoo as it doesn't leave my hair oily by the end of the day, I must say that Pantene Smooth and Silky conditioner conditions my hair better than Pantene Nature Care Conditioner. But the thing is that if I were to use Pantene Smooth and Silky Shampoo and conditioner, my hair will be super oily at the end of the day and at times my scalp will feel itchy. Hence, I prefer using Pantene Nature Care Shampoo and conditioner even though it doesn't conditions or moisturize my hair that much. In fact, I'm surprised that Pantene Nature Care Shampoo is suitable for my scalp and that it doesn't irritate my scalp nor makes my hair oily by the end of the day after shampooing my hair with it.
From Day 2 onwards, I included Pantene Nature Care Intensive Penetrating Treatment into my haircare regimen.
I would use the products as follow:
Pantene Nature Care Shampoo > Conditioner >Intensive Penetrating Treatment
Day 7:
Q: How has my hair texture changed/improved?
A: My hair became smoother after I included Pantene Intensive Penetrating Treatment into my haircare regimen. I also realized that my crown area wasn't as flat as before.
Initially, I thought that perhaps the merits of Pantene Nature Care range would remain at being suitable for my scalp and that it gives my crown area more volume and that I would have to accept the fact that it doesn't conditions/moisturize my hair as much as Pantene Smooth and Silky range do but I was wrong!
By using Pantene Nature Care Conditioner and rinsing off after shampooing, and follow up with Pantene Nature Care Intensive Treatment and then rinsing off, it makes my hair so much smoother, almost akin to that of using Pantene Smooth and Silky Intensive Penetrating Treatment! I was overjoyed as its really hard to find hair products that doesn't irritate my scalp which is sensitive and dry and yet doesn't dry out my hair.
