• What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
Easy to use, nice smell, felt like a treat.
• Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
Yes I would.
• Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
I didn't notice that straight away, but certainly after a week or so.
• Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
Yes I do agree (and the smell is lovely!)
• How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
I've been using a premium brand (begins with K) and this is SO much better! I'm absolutely delighted and realise I've been wasting my money.

[SiobhanSharpe]

As above, this did leave my hair feeling really soft and was pleasant to use. It was quite nice and shiny too.
I can't say I noticed much difference in the texture or strength of my hair which is generally good. I don't get much breakage.
I wasn't keen on the smell, it was a bit too sweet for me. I prefer a herbal smell.
(I like Liz Earle even though it's quite expensive.)
Although this range is cheaper I don't think I'll be changing from my usual brands.
It was very interesting to test the products, however. Thank you.

[bamblolo]

I really liked how the Garnier Honey Treasures range made my hair feel. I used the shampoo and it lathered really well. I then used the conditioner which left my hair feeling silky smooth and my curls were really defined. I used the hair mask once a week for as a deep condition. I felt that my hair was easier to style after using them and I have told my friends and family about the range.

[whateverthisis]

Thank you for sending these products. To answer the questions using the same numbering:

1. What I liked about the mask was the way it came in the big tub so you can just scoop out a handful. Also you only need to leave it on for a minute so you can put it on whilst in the shower, wash your body and then rinse it off. Other masks I have tried you have to leave it on for ten minutes which puts me off as who has the time?!
2. Yes I would definitely recommend this range to friends and family.
3. Yes I agree that my hair felt stronger after one use.
4. I think my hair looked softer but possibly not shinier.
5. I think it is better than other products I have used. I normally use the Aussie range and have been happy with that but in my opinion this stuff is way better and I will definitely be switching. After using it I was able to brush through my hair without using an extra detangling spray that I normally need.

In summary, I really like these products and am pleased to have found them.

[dvda]

1. What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?

Super thick but not heavy. Left my over-coloured, menopausal hair feeling silky smooth.

1. Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?

I would definitely recommend. Over the summer I will be leaving in the conditioner while by the pool/beach and would recommend to friends (have already got husband and children using it)

1. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?

Not sure about stronger but definitely healthier. This has improved every time I have used it.

1. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?

My hair doesn’t shine (too much fake blonde colour) but it definitely feels SO MUCH softer and healthier. Just in time for Summer-YAY! I am also not using my hair straighteners anymore as I am happy with how my hair looks now, rather than having to fuss, fuss, fuss. It has been a great experience. Thank you

1. How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?

It has helped with making my hair look and feel healthy (despite being menopausal and years of over colouring it) Thank you Garnier 😊

[wistful1310]

I liked the products and thought they made my hair feel soft and smooth but not appreciatively stronger - but it doesn't break really anyway. I think I might have a few less split ends? I was disappointed that it wasn't sulphate or parabens free though. I found the conditioner bottle hard to use and difficult to get all the conditioner out. It got quite messy!
I think I would buy the shampoo again but not the rest. I did enjoy testing something new though! Thanks

[NuckingFightmare]

What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
It smelled lovely, I’m not a fan of honey but this was nice, not overpowering. Left my hair super soft.

Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
yes

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
not sure about 1 use, but overall, yes.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
yes definitely.

How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
very well, will absolutely buy again.

[Murree]

What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
Most hair masks leave my hair feeling weighed down so I was dubious about using this. However to my surprise my hair didn't feel heavy or greasy after use. A little goes a long way too so I can see it lasting a while.

Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
Yes I would.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
I don't know about stringer but it felt nice and soft.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
Yes it did, my hair is quite coarse so it can be hard to keep it soft and shiny - this worked well.

How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
Seems to be up there with some of the better ones I have tried.

[CatkinToadflax]

What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
I wasn't keen on the mask to be honest. It made my hair look and feel a bit greasy and I didn't like having to scoop it out of the tub as I was fumbling around with the lid whilst trying not to slop the mask all over the shower screen.

Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
I would definitely recommend the shampoo and conditioner. Not sure that I'd recommend the mask though.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
Not after one use but yes after several uses.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
As above - there was a definite difference after several uses. My hair was also much easier to comb when wet.

How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
It compares well. I like the smell and I didn't need to use a huge amount for each wash, so it lasts well. I'm not keen on the packaging though - my usual products are much clearer on which is the shampoo and which is the conditioner (such as the bottles being in contrasting colours). The Honey Treasures packaging has a HUGE amount of text on it and the words 'shampoo' and 'conditioner' are hard to spot within all of the other text when I want to grab the right bottle quickly in the shower.

Thank you for giving me these products to test.

[StillNoFuckingEyeDeer]

What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
It was thick enough to make it easy to apply. It left my hair looking and feeling healthier.

Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
Yes

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
Yes.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
Yes

How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
I didn't really like the smell, but the quality of my hair afterwards was much better.

[Jamb16]

1. What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask? The long lasting scent and the thickness of the product so only a little needs to be used per application
2. Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family? yes definitely
3. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use? Yes definitely and I really noticed less hair breakage
4. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use? Yes my hair felt so soft and silky I was surprised just how much
5. How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used? It has made my very thick dry unmanageable hair feel very soft and shiny. I will keep using this and I am very happy. It is a lot better than any other product I have previously used

[weirdoboelady]

Before answering your questions, I thought it might be useful to publish 'weirdoboelady's theories about shampoo and use thereof'.

I've read loads of stuff which has told me that all shampoo brands leave a residue in the hair. (Also, this is how conditioner works, right?) So I counter this by using a different brand each time I wash my hair - and the frequency of washing has gone down to about twice a week since lockdown.

I usually have preferred brands which I sort of keep for 'best' and use as the preferred brand if I'm going somewhere nice or meeting people when I care a bit about how I look. My hair can be frizzy without conditioner and I sometimes give it a break from conditioner - I quite like how thick it looks when it's frizzy, even though it has the downside of being frizzy!

Anyway, your questions.

1. What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask? I loved that it felt so thick, dense and heavy, and smelt of honey!
2. Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family? Definitely. In fact I already have done.
3. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use? I suppose so, but 'stronger' isn't the word that came to mind. 'Thicker' was the word that came to mind. I have very fine hair, meaning that each individual hair is fine. I've always had loads, but notice that I do have less now that I am so old. It's not a problem yet, but it's nice to have something that I feel restores my old volume.
4. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use? Yes - I really liked it and it has gone straight to the top of my preferred list!
5. How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used? See above - it's right at the top!

[chibsortig]

What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
I like that even though it felt thick and rich, it wasn't heavy. It melted into my hair. It smells awesome whilst using and even after I rinsed it out. My hair felt great, very swishy and it didn't feel weighed down like after using some products. My hair didn't go greasy quickly either.

Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
Definitely especially the hair mask.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
My hair felt in much better condition after use so yes.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
Definitely my hair was so soft and shiny.

How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
I think the mask is one of the better hair products I've used in a while. I like how it melts into the hair when applying. I love all the three products but if I could only afford one then I would pick the mask everytime. It is amazing and smells great.

[weirdoboelady]

PS I forgot to say thank you. Thank you, and I hope my verbiose feedback has been worth it for you!

[HermioneWeasley]

I liked the products but since I signed up I discovered that Garnier support “just like us” so they won’t be getting any more money from me. Please feed this back to them - they can’t be courting Mumsnet on one hand and supporting the sterilisation and mutilation of children on the other.

[chezybabes89]

1. The mask is great. I have found that other masks I have used, have left my hair feeling greasy, but, this one just leaves it smooth and silky.
2. Yes, I have already told my friends and purchased a new set and have been using it on my daughters hair which has brought a shine back to her hair!
3. Yes, I was desperate for a new shampoo. I was finding my hair was falling out a lot more with my old shampoo and conditioner, but, with this one my hair feels stronger, smells great and the shine is something that makes or breaks a shampoo/ conditioner product for me and this gives me a fantastic shine.
4. Yes 100% I love the effects of this range.
5. No, this seems to have that little bit extra. I have put this through its paces. my hair is often very dry due to the amount of colour I put into it and I can say that not only does it strengthen my hair, but also leaves it shiny and smooth.

Thank you so much for allowing me to try this set and as a result of this product test opportunity I have bought another set and now both myself and my daughter use it. We won't choose any other product now. I have also just bought the garner honey treasures shampoo bar because I love the range so much. I am looking forward to trying that.

• What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask? it smelled lovely
• Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
neutral
• Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
hard to say. daughters had long lasting waves after use
• Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use? Not applicable as we didn't try it because the shampoo and conditioner started irritating them
• How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
to be fair- I couldn't use it myself as I'd had a keratin treatment and can't use sulphates. then my eldest couldn't use it as she reacts to honey (we didn't know it would be honey when we signed up to test)
so my younger 2(older than 3 as it says on bottle) used the shampoo and conditioner but then it started irritating them on scalp and body, my teen boy has used them loads and no complaints

sorry not to be more help. thanks for the opportunity to test

[Asuwere]

1. What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?

The tub had a big opening so easy to get it out. Also liked that it just needs left for a minute.

1. Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?

I'm not sure I would. It was nice enough but most of my family use shampoo bars now so wouldn't use this. I really didn't like the conditioner bottle as it was very difficult to squeeze so wouldn't recommend that.

1. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?

I don't think so, my hair did feel a bit softer but not sure it was any stronger.

1. Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?

Again, I don't think so. It did feel softer but didn't look any different.

1. How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?

There wasn't much difference to be honest.
I wasn't a huge fan of the smell, it was ok but I prefer a fruity or fresher scent.

Thanks for letting me try this.

(Thanks @HermioneWeasley , I didn't know that. That would put me off buying Garnier in the future)

[frankiefirstyear]

• What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
Smell
Texture
Easy application and amount required for desired effect
Difference it made to my hair

• Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
Yes

• Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
Yes I felt there were less breakages from my hair but also it felt so soft and shiny which my partner noticed straight away without being prompted or having any knowledge I'd used a different product.

• Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
Yes absolutely, my hair is quite course but this made it feel luxuriously soft but strong.

• How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
I use a shampoo duo for my hair type normally but this trio surpassed my regular product by miles. I'm not sure if the price but the quality of each was outstanding and the results were easily visible after only the first try. With a family with four females, hair breakages can cause haystack effect on the floors and a nightmare for vacuuming so anything to help combat this is wonderful.

On a side note, I'm not sure about packaging but I tend to buy huge bottles of products as we are a large family so a refill/giant bottle would be the icing on the cake for us.

[menopausalbloat]

What did you like about the Honey Treasures Hair Remedy mask?
It didn't leave a residue like most treatments do.

Would you recommend the Honey Treasures haircare range to friends & family?
Yes, especially if they have damaged hair.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask, your hair felt stronger after 1 use?
It felt smoother, not sure about stronger.

Do you agree that after using the Honey Treasures Shampoo, Conditioner and mask your hair looked softer and shinier after 1 use?
Most definitely. My hair was easier to comb and just looked healthier.

How does the Honey Treasures range (Shampoo, Conditioner, and mask) compare with other hair products you’ve used?
Compared to higher-end products, this does the job just as well.
I loved the fact that it didn't leave a residue like some and also didn't build up after repeated use.
I'm going through menopause so hoping that this will help with my hair loss too.
