Hair Trio

I've decided to review Hair Supply, Glad Hair Shampoo and Glad Hair Conditioner all in one post - just for convenience!

We'll start with Hair Supply. This is one of Soap & Glory's first hair products, and I first tried it as part of a giftset I got for Christmas in 2009. It's available in a full sized squeezy tube (200ml) and a smaller, travel-sized one.


The formula is a yellow-ish colour, quite thick in consistency, and smells quite perfumed. I'm not sure about the scent really but I know a lot of other people like it. Maybe I'm just fussy!

The description says...
"Super gloss-giving radiance and repair mask treatment for all hair types. Ultra-lite gel formula hydrates and
defrizzes but won’t weigh hair down! Leaves hair smooth and shiny, coats and controls spilt ends!"

It definitely controls split ends and leaves hair smooth, but I wouldn't recommend Hair Supply if, like me, you've got fine and curly hair. It just weighs it down far too much in my opinion. I really wanted to love this product but it refuses to love me! I have continued to use it on my split ends, though, and it works a treat.

I've noticed that quite a few girls on the Soap & Glory Facebook page often complain that it weighs their hair down, so make sure you only use a small amount - a little bit goes a long way! I think it depends on your hair type as to whether this product would work for you.

Hair Supply is available to buy in Boots, £6 for a 200ml bottle.

Glad Hair Day Shampoo


The Glad Hair Day shampoo and conditioner are fairly new products to the Soap & Glory range. The first thing I noticed about this product was the smell. It reminds me of raspberries - it is absolutely divine!

The shampoo itself is a pink colour, almost like a gel. I don't think it lathers up very well but it does a good job of cleansing my hair when I've had a build up of product - a big thumbs up from me for that! I find the biggest problem I have with shampoo is getting the previous day's products out, and this has been a huge help. I'd definitely recommend this shampoo if you have similar problems.

I'm generally used to bottles that you tip upside down in order to get the shampoo out, so the squeezy tube makes a nice change. It means that when you haven't got a lot of product left, you don't have to tip the bottle upside down yourself so that you can use the remaining bit of product! I sometimes find it hard to squeeze it out though, so do be careful.

The one thing that seems to put people off... is the price. At £5.22, there are plenty of cheaper shampoos out there that do the job just as well. But if you're a Soap & Glory addict like me, you'll trust the brand to deliver a good quality product and you won't mind paying the price. I can honestly say I'm always having a Glad Hair Day after using this!

Glad Hair Day Shampoo is available from Boots, £5.22.

Glad Hair Day Conditioner


Now we come to Glad Hair Day's partner in grime, the Glad Hair Day conditioner. Once you've washed away the previous day's muck, it's time to condition your hair and show it some respect!

Like Glad Hair Day Shampoo, the conditioner smells really good, and comes in a similar squeezy bottle. I have to admit I've often mistaken the conditioner bottle for the shampoo one, and end up squeezing a massive amount of shampoo onto my hair. Again. (S&G if you're reading - could you possibly modify the bottles so it's easier to distinguish between the two? Thanks!)

I prefer this conditioner to Hair Supply - it doesn't leave my hair feeling weighed down, but it stills works nicely as a daily conditioner. It complements my curly hair nicely, and I've always got a nice bounce in my hair after I've used the Glad Hair Day products! Both the shampoo and conditioner are suitable for daily use, so don't be worried about using it every day.

Again, the Glad Hair Day conditioner is £5.22 but don't be put off: it's definitely something everyone should try, especially lovers of all things Soap & Glory. I have tried a lot of hair products in my short life, and this duo is definitely up there with the best ones.

Be warned: The Glad Hair Day Shampoo and ESPECIALLY the Conditioner seem to be proving EXTREMELY popular in the shops. I've noticed that people are finding it increasingly hard to get, and Boots.com always seems to be sold out... So don't worry too much if you can't find it - when it is in stock, grab it quick, because I guarantee it won't be there for long!
