Pros: Smells wonderful, tear free
Cons: Doesn't get rid of knots, may not be suitable for all hair types
The Bottom Line: I really wish I could recommend this great smelling shampoo but it just didn't work for us.

| jadzia66's Full Review: Loreal 2 In 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids |
Since my oldest daughter was born, I have tried many different brands of shampoo meant for children. Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids is one of the most recent ones we have tried.
All About Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids
The bottle of Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids that we have is a 9 fluid ounce bottle. I'm not sure if this is available in a bigger size (such as in BJ's or Sam's) but this is the only size that we can buy in our local stores.
Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids is not just a shampoo. It also has a conditioning agent in it, hence the 2 in 1 name. That is one of major claims of this shampoo is that if you use this your child will have no knots in their hair. They also claim that your child will have no split ends and that it's tear free. This shampoo is also suppose to be for all hair types.
The ingredients in Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids are:
water, sodium laureth sulfate, peg-200 hydrogenated glyceryl palmate, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, peg-30 glyceryl cocoate, glycol distearate, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, hexylene glycol, disodium ricinoleamido measulfosuccinate, fragrance, sodium laureth-8 sulfate, polyquaternium-10, tartaric acid, sodium methylparaben, magnesium laureth-8 sulfate, magnesium laureth sulfate, dmom hydantoin, sodium olethsulfate, magnesium olethsulfate, methylparaben, blue1
How Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids Worked For Us
Plain and simple, it didn't. The biggest claim that this shampoo makes is that there will be no knots. In fact, the back of the bottle states
"No knots can resist the 2-in-1 formula of Loreal Kids. It helps prevent split ends and conditions dry hair, leaving hair soft and manageable. Plus it's great for all hair types."
I beg to differ. And it's not like my daughter has some weird hair type either. She has fine hair that is shoulder length and knots have been a big problem with her since about the age of 3 or so. Since Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids costs more than the other brands, I figured that it would work better than the others too. It doesn't. My daughter still has a ton of knots in her hair after a bath and we still go through the same routine... I carefully and very slowly brush her hair and no matter how careful I am, she screams and cries all the while trying to grab her hair away from me. Now I do know that she's overreacting in a big way because I am extremely careful but the fact remains that her hair is still full of knots, regardless of what the bottle says.
Also, Loreal claims that this shampoo is meant for all hair types but I don't think it works well on fine hair because 2 days after a bath my daughter's hair looks weighed down and somewhat greasy. So I have to bath her every other day which is fine in the spring and summer when she's outside getting dirty on a regular basis (sometimes during the summer she gets a bath every night) but in winter, all that extra bathing only dries out her skin which means I have to smear lotion all over her body. Not a big deal except that it makes her arms break out in little white heads.
The only thing I really like about Loreal 2 in 1 Blueberry Smoothie Shampoo For Kids is the smell. The smell really is divine and it lasts too. The next day after a bath, Courtney's hair still smells wonderful. Too bad it doesn't work as good as it smells.
