Mane 'n Tail Daily Control Anti-Dandruff Shampoo & Conditioner

Come all, gather round and hear my story of woe. It's about my hair but is fairly woeful nonetheless. So I dyed my hair from blonde to red a few months back and started using a colour protect shampoo, for obvious reasons but found to my dismay that although it was in fact prolonging my copper tones, it was also drying out my scalp, thereby making it itchy and uncomfortable. I know, I'm glamour personified. I wanted to get something to calm my poor scalp down while not losing my colour any faster than usual but having unsuccessfully tried Oilatum and Head and Shoulders, I was delighted to be offered the chance to try Mane 'n Tail Daily Control Anti- Dandruff Shampoo and Conditioner. 

In case you haven't heard of Mane 'n Tail, it originally started out as a horse grooming product, but seeing its positive effects, its makers then launched it for us humans, to huge success. It's now well loved by the likes of Sarah Jessica Parker and Jennifer Aniston so I'm in good company!

I actually don't hugely suffer from dandruff but I still felt that the shampoo could be of benefit to me and it definitely has been, which I can confidently say as I've been using it now for almost a month. The aim of both of these products is to relieve itching and flaking while moisturising the hair and scalp- the former due to the presence of zinc which helps to repair and heal damaged skin and the latter due to Olive Oil. Interestingly, for an anti-dandruff formula, these are also designed to be colour safe, something I haven't come across before in a product of this nature. I certainly haven't noticed any more colour loss than I normally would, that is to say, my colour still fades as it normally would with regular hair washing anyway.

Look how shiny my hair is! (Natural light)

The best part for me though obviously is that I haven't noticed that I itch my scalp AT ALL anymore, which is like a minor miracle, so I will without a doubt be continuing to use the shampoo. As for the conditioner, suggested use is to massage gently into the hair and scalp and because I also have very fine hair (I know, someone get out the tiny violin) I really can't use conditioner on my scalp- it just weighs my hair down and makes it greasy and limp. So because of that, I can't really say that the conditioner has been of huge benefit to my itchy scalp. It is a nice product in itself though and as you can see from the top photo, I've made a good dent in it from using it all the time.
Look how shiny my hair is in the bottom photo!! Also great is that there's a good amount of product in each bottle- 473mls to be exact, it smells lovely and is gentle enough for every day use.  

Both are priced at 13.95 each which I think is worth it for the amount of product you get. 

Have you tried any of the Mane 'n Tail range yet? What do you think?
