Body Shop ;)

Typical Indian consumer always first sees the price and then the qualities of the product. This blog is about the product, which became “one” of my most favorites over the period of time, The Body Shop Rainforest Volume Shampoo.
 

I was recommended this shampoo by a friend of mine, I was quite taken aback looking at the price, but she convinced me into buying it. The first product I bought from The Body Shop was its Rainforest Shine Shampoo. The shampoo did not lather much and gods save you if you are using it on greasy hair. The more you use the shampoo the more you are worried about how much a hair wash is costing you LOLZ.

Rainforest Shine did not do any wonders on me and after buying good 2 bottles each costing Rs 945 I thought I should stop. Though the shampoo was mild and chemical free and the fragrance was awesome. The shampoo did no good no bad for me, and once when I was just going through the Body Shop products is when I came across the Volume shampoo.

I really thought of giving it a try and bought a big bottle. Same 400ml for Rs 945.

The first time I used it, nothing happened again. I was a little disappointed but I thought, now that I have bought it, I have to finish it. The fragrance again was impeccable. I loved it.

After a proper 2-week use I could feel the difference in the volume of my hair. This was a little pleasantly shocking for me. The more I used the more I realized its affect on me. This was working and bang I started recommending it to all my friends.

Many of my friends discontinued their shampoos and started using Rainforest Volume. Everybody realized its affects by regularly using it.

The actual test this product passed was when a friend of mine, who had a major hair issue started using it. He could see the result of it too. It worked slowly but the result was out there to see. He underwent a Hair Transplant surgery and kept using this product too and saw a considerable change. It kept the scalp clean and accelerated the hair growth. And that’s when I even more started recommending the product.

I have now been using the product since a year now. My hair has an awesome texture now but something strange happened too. Over the time the product has stopped adding up to the volume. In fact I have been facing the hair fall issue now for over a month. I really don’t understand what went wrong. All the people to whom I had recommended had no such issues. I now have mixed reviews about it. No doubt that I’m still a brand loyal freak to the product hoping for that period to come back where it had a real awesome affect on my hair in the sense of volume.

 Dear Body Shop, all I want to convey is no doubt your products are chemical free, no animal tests, very environment friendly, but it would be great if the products really work the way they are named and not just for a little period of time but all the time. And also I feel it is really overpriced, as i heard you all do not spend it on the "Promotions" at all so at least give your customers a lee way in the prices. I guess you will have an even better consumer audience if you price it in a better way. Think about it.

Your Brand Loyal Consumer,
