I started using this shampoo when the treseme shampoo I was using before it gave me horrible dandruff. I was converted pretty quickly when it smelled amazing, got rid of nearly all the dandruff within three or four washes and left my hair (frizzy and curly and super thick) feeling and looking pretty great. I wouldn’t use anything else now.
So I definitely thought this shampoo and conditioner was only if you had dandruff and problem hair – Until one day I was at my sisters and decided to use it.. Converted straight away!! I have never had a shampoo and conditioner leave my hair so silky and smooth before! I have long curly and some what frizzy hair and this duo tames the mane!
Sunsilk really does make my hair silky. I think it is the conditioner that works so well. The one thing that I don’t like (as many shampoo and conditioners are like) is that the shampoo bottle and the conditioner bottle look so similar when I get into the shower without my glasses to read. I write in big permanent ink letter “Cond” and “Shampoo” so I can tell the difference. Sunsilk really does help with getting rid of tangles in my fine hair.
Pantene shampoo and conditioner for coloured hair. I have used it for years. Even my hairdresser agrees that it is suitable for coloured hair. I would never change from Pantene. Even though it is for coloured hair I use it on my Grandchildren . They love smell and feeling afterwards, they think it is a real treat to use Nannys Shampoo and Conditioner. I have even used it on my Staffy!!
My favourite shampoo. Loreal Elseve colour protect.
I have been using this shampoo for years now. I am not even sure how long. I know that you are supposed to change each six months, but I simply can not. Maybe for a wash or two, but not an entire bottle. This stuff is great. It keeps your hair soft, clean, nourished, shiny, and really protects that colour. Smells amazing too.
My 86 year old Mum was going crazy with an itchy scalp for over a year – she changed products in desperation, including purchasing some very expensive shampoos and conditioners. She had no idea exactly why she was itching herself crazy, even after using all natural ingredients. Eventually she thought to give Johnson & Johnson’s Baby Shampoo and Conditioner a go, reasoning that surely it must be gentle enough if it can be used on the delicate scalps of babies … and voila, straight after the first use, the itching ceased … and she is SO happy about it!
Am usually fine with just using Sukin, however with my third pregnancy my scalp has been terrible! I tried a few natural solutions first but nothing worked. Then tried Cedel – instant difference! I now just use it once a week & it keeps my scalp under control. Can’t wait to be back to normal again!
I’m in love with the Sukin Organics Protein Shampoo & Conditioner. At $19.95 for 1L, it’s pricier than regular brands but probably the cheapest true organic one. I love that it helps minimise the nasties I put onto my skin, is great for my fussy scalp & hair, I can use it on the kids, and a little goes a long way so it’s actually pretty good value too for the quality you get.
This shampoo is amazing! It smells delicious, it leaves my hair soft and silky and not at all oily. The price cannot be beat (in true Aldi fashion). The bottle is cute and being small it doesn’t take up too much shower space. I definitely have and will continue to recommend this awesome shampoo.

I have recently been using Organic Care Dry Nourish Shampoo and Conditioner and I have been really please with the results. After having and breastfeeding two kids my hair has changed completely and is now really dry. I find this shampoo and conditioner is really effective for dry hair, unruly hair, it has a great scent and seems to be free from all the nasties you find in other brands. It’s readily available at the major supermarkets and best of all it’s cheap! Great value hair care!
I love Loreal Elvive shampoos. I used to buy their colour protect shampoo, but then with pregnancy I stopped colouring my hair and no longer needed to use that one. I have recently switched to the Extraordinary Oil variety instead. Loreal keeps my hair really soft and tangle free for a while. It helps to maintain the balance of oils in my hair. The only thing that I don’t like with this one is the smell, but it is growing on me.
Sunsilk really does make my hair silky. I think it is the conditioner that works so well. The one thing that I don’t like (as many shampoo and conditioners are like) is that the shampoo bottle and the conditioner bottle look so similar when I get into the shower without my glasses to read.

I am really impressed by the Goldwell Kerasilk Reconstruct Shampoo.
This shampoo is pearl-coloured and I could really feel it cleansing my hair. No need to wash my hair twice – it cleaned my hair first go (unlike some really cheap & nasty shampoos).
It left my hair smelling nice and feeling silky even before following up with the Goldwell Kerasilk Reconstruct Conditioner.
I couldn’t believe how soft and tangle free my hair became when I started to use Sunsilk brilliant shine (the one in the pink bottle). I think it is the conditioner that is making the difference. It has a beautiful scent as well. I wait for when it is on special to buy as it can get expensive.
The brand fruits although it is rather cheap is actually a good shampoo, I find it is one of the better cheap shampoos.
I was using this before I got dermatitis on my scalp and I did love using the shampoo and I absolutely love the smell of this shampoo, I’m quite sensitive to perfume and it gives me headaches but I find this scent is actually quite pleasent and doesn’t affect me which is a bonus.
I get dermatitis on my scalp so my scalp gets itchy and irratated and a doctor recommend me head and shoulders. Honestly my experience with this brand is horrible.
it didn’t work and the perfume from the shampoo was overwhelming and made my head spin to the point I almost fainted.
it took ages for me t o be able to get the pursue smell out and I thought perfume was a irritant, so why is it in a shampoo for sensitive scalps.
I will never buy this again and I don’t recommend
This shampoo is perfect for hair that has been coloured, I’ve used this shampoo for a few years and I found it to not only have a really nice gentle smell, it helps keep the hair stay bright and fresh just like it’s just been coloured and the best part is that it doesn’t irratated my skin and I have fussy skin.
it may be a salon bought shampoo but it’s worth the money, I was definitely happy with the results.
natural shampoo that's good for itchy, dry and irratated scalp
The brand moogoo has by far been the best shampoo and products I have ever tried, I get a irratated dry scalp which can some times be caused from dermatitis and this shampoo has stopped my itchy dry irratated scalp and cleared it all up within a couple washes. I’m so pleased because at times I’d find myself scratching until I had a sore
Pantene shampoo and conditioner for coloured hair. I have used it for years. Even my hairdresser agrees that it is suitable for coloured hair. I would never change from Pantene. Even though it is for coloured hair I use it on my Grandchildren . They love smell and feeling afterwards, they think it is a real treat to use Nannys Shampoo and Conditioner. I have even used it on my Staffy!!
I buy Tresemme for the family. It is very versatile which means I only have to buy one bottle for all the family. It leaves everyone’s hair soft and silky. I have tried many others but this is the best so far. Having mostly males I don’t want to get anything too expensive or they will only waste it by using too much each time
My favourite shampoo. Loreal Elseve colour protect.

My Shampoo is OGX I found it at Aldi and the first few times i didnt buy it as i always thought that cheap stuff was nasty and no good so when i finally got it i was amazed at everything about it, especially the fact that it was cheap yet good quality.The smell stays all day which is refreshing and my hair is always silky soft. It has the Argan Oil of Marocco and is also Sulphure free…
So I found this last week at Chemist Warehouse. I was going to buy my regular Moisture Rich Treseme, but I decided to try this out seeing it is Paraben free, free of dyes and silicone.
My hair looks and feels very clean and is much softer than normal. The coconut smell is just gorgeous and lasts at least 2 days. I was sniffing my hair non stop. I’m really pleased. I definitely recommend it.

I love Loreal. I recall reading that you’re supposed to switch your shampoo every six months. I did that in my early 20s and tried every shampoo on the market. Once I found Loreal I never went back to any other brand. It makes my hair shine, it handles hairdrying well. It is soft, and it smells great. i’d never use anything else again (I just now switch between WHICH loreal product I use).
I have been using this product for easily the last 5 years. I have tried a number of different varieties, but currently am using the Moisture Rich formula and have been for quite some time now. My hair is naturally wavy with great tendency to frizz. I straighten my hair after every wash, and this shampoo provides my hair with the most silky smooth results. Every time.
I remember once a lovely older lady asked me what I use on my hair while I was at a park with my kids. She commented on how shiney and healthy my hair looked. Needless to say I was flattered, but I had to give the credit to Tresemme. In addition to it being great on my hair, it is so cheap! Often on special for $5 for 1lt. Awesome!

The School Holiday Crowd-Pleasers That Never Fail
School holidays are usually a mix of excitement and mild panic. No lunchboxes (yay!) and no morning chaos. But figuring out how to keep the kids entertained without turning the house upside down or testing your sanity is the flip side!
We’re serving up a couple of fabulous winter school holiday options that are tried-and-true crowd-pleasers – and they feel like a day out for everyone, not just the kids.
Whether you’ve got little ones bouncing off the walls or teens too cool to smile, Zone Bowling and Timezone have something for every age (yes, even you). And with winter weather keeping us mostly indoors, they’re the perfect solution when parks and play centres just aren’t cutting it.
They’re fun, indoors, great value, and actually make you feel like you’ve had a proper day out… not just one of those ‘I need a nap after that’ outings.
Why Zone Bowling And Timezone Always Come Through
There’s something about Timezone that just hits different. The mix of lights, sounds and excitement pulls you in from the second you walk through the doors. You’ll find the latest arcade games, laser tag and bumper cars as well as viral sensations like Pixel and Colourgrid. Basically everything kids could want, all in one (warm) place.
And it’s not just for them. Whether you’re a closet arcade expert or a skill tester freak, it’s very easy to get swept up in the excitement.
What’s on this winterat Timezone?

Zone Bowling: So much more than just bowling
If you haven’t been to a Zone Bowling in a while, you might be surprised by just how much they’ve packed in. Of course, there’s bowling, with proper shoes and shiny lanes and that satisfying sound of a strike – but that’s just the beginning.
There’s also arcade games, laser tag, food and drink (decent coffee!), plus comfy spaces to hang while the kids run wild. It’s the kind of place where everyone – toddlers, teens, tired parents – can find something to enjoy.
And the best part? The Fun Zone Passes.
They bundle everything up into one easy purchase, so you don’t have to keep reaching for your wallet every five minutes. Here’s what you can grab:

Each pass includes a mix of bowling, arcade games, Power Tickets (which kids can cash in for prizes), and more. It’s fantastic value, and makes planning your day so much easier.
Offers available for a limited time only. Terms and Conditions apply. See website for full details.
Timezone And Zone Bowling: Kind of Day Out That Doesn’t Feel Like a Chore
Some school holiday outings sound fun in theory, but in practice? You’re exhausted, the kids are cranky, and no one’s really had a great time.
Timezone and Zone Bowling feel different. You’re indoors, warm, everything’s in one place, and you can actually relax while the kids entertain themselves (or team up with you for a round of laser tag). No weather worries, no logistics nightmare. Just good, clean, high-energy fun that ticks everyone’s box.
Ready to swap screen battles for smiles all round? Timezone and Zone Bowling make it happen, every single time – rain, hail or shine. Bring on the holiday fun!
The kids love going to Timezone, especially after being dragged around the shopping center! With 5 years between them it can be hard to find things they both enjoy but Timezone keeps them both happy, occupied and entertained! It’s also a great way to bribe them while we shop 😂
Our family loves Timezone and kingpin. Theres always so much to do and always new games and toys to try out. It can definitely be costly though as you keep tapping away! We love the unlimited time play packages and often enjoy topping up on those special double dollar days to stretch it further.
We will happily be off to visit Timezone during the holidays for some fun times. We all have favourite games to play. It is such a good idea to stick to a budget when visiting Timezone. Planning before going to Timezone is a good idea and helps to make good decisions and the fun last.
It is absolutely so true! We went to our local timezone yesterday to reward some brave behaviour at the dentist and kick off our holiday fun. We had an absolute blast! The games had all been revamped and there was new stuff everywhere. The prizes are okay.. not great! The price to points could be more kindly proportioned. I mean 1000’s of points for a bag of lollies… Cost us a fortune to get them. Not at all as cost effective for a lot of people. I can only ever afford to get $60 at most and am so grateful for the bonus points at least. But when you consider it as $2.50 min per swipe of your card, you’ll burn through it within the hour. Still, we’ll be back for more joy!
IN fact my husband took the kids bowling today while I was off doing something else – it was a great solution. They had an enourmous amount of fun, it didn’t cost too much, and the timing was just about perfect for my appointment. It’s definitely a great family activity. So Fun.
We really do love going to Timezone for all of the fun activities that we all enjoy playing. Bowling is a firm family favourite activity to play and brings out the competition in all of us. It is a good option for indoor activities and fun for all of the family.
Finding holiday activities is always difficult, especially with teens! Life is so busy that it can be really hard to even think about where to go and what to do, these ideas are going on my list for this holidays entertainment. Thanks Mouth of Mums for making my life easier
Unfortunately, we don’t have anything that good here in Tassie. Our local bowling centre is very expensive and doesn’t have all the extras of some others. They do do school holiday specials though which are okay, but they don’t allow guard rails for adults anymore, so it’s not very fun for me :(.
Another nice one for those who live in Brisbane is Urban Extreme; an ultimate experience of rock climbing, dodge ball, ski lanes, snowboarding, ninja, parkour, laser tag, trampolines, play area and an adventure park all together. With what they offer there is always something also the older kids and possibly parents like
Things like Bounce, Time Zone and Zone Bowling never fail for most, but they are not for everyone; the mix of lights, sounds and excitement can be a massive sensory overload for those who are sensitive for that which can lead to complete panic attacks by some kids. Besides this not everyone likes bowling (we have one family member who really doesn’t like this)
We head to timesone whenever we go near the Gold coast or Sunshine Coast. The kids have the absolute best time. I have not taken the kids bowling in a long time but it is my birthday this week so think it is a fantastic time to give it a go!
Our family loves Timezone!! We definitely call ourselves regulars throughout the year. A great time where we can test our skill at claw machines and have a blast with the kids. My daughter’s favourite is driving me around on the racing game – definitely core memories unlocked! Its so fun all the time.
My kids do enjoy Zone bowling- we’re regular visitors even during term time. And it’s fun for everyone in the family and it’s easy to invite a friend or two to join in if you’re so inclined. Not hard to learn if you’re a b3ginner – and you don’t need equipment either.
Bowling is such a fun thing to do for school holidays with kids, I even picked it as my 10 year birthday treat. Timezone is a classic day out. I remember when the photo booth stickers were new and everyone’s diary was covered in them. We have a carnival in town over the holiday break so that’s out plan! Free entry, woo
Kids love school holiday’s but my credit card doesn’t!!!!! I love Zone bowling, it is such a fun place to take the kids too. My daughter loves to bowl and finish off playing a few games afterwards. I am yet to take her to Timezone but it is on our list to try this year.
I LOVE school holidays! I think preparation is the key to having a cheap yet successful one. I always start the holidays with a sheet on the wall with a list of free activities such as – hide and seek, read a book, do a puzzle, bake something etc.
we have a rule in the house that you can’t say ‘there’s nothing to do’ or ‘I’m bored’ because there’s a list full of fun activities. We then have a few scheduled paid activities such as cinemas, Timezone and bowling! Bring your own snacks and you’ll save even more!
