Shampoo That Leaves My Hair Feeling Lightweight
L’Oreal is one of my favourite hair products and the set scalp, shampoo and conditioner.
I used L’Oreal years ago and it was the first shampoo I was happy with, in a while. As you get older. There can be skin, hair changes. And we need to adapt with that.
I am lured in by L’Oreal scent. This Paris Elvive Purifying Shampoo gives my hair a reset. L’Oreal shampoo takes out any other product and residue, left, or build up from products or even the environment. I rinsed thoroughly and gently.
My hair is currently short and I have sensitivity with my scalp.
All hair lengths can do with a purifying shampoo. Then use the L’Oreal conditioner.
Working with the same label is important as they complement each other, with the ingredients and purpose.
Excellent for oily scalp & dry ends
Love the fragrance of this shampoo! I used this in conjunction with the scalp serum and conditioner and I have been really impressed with the results. I have always found it difficult to find one shampoo and conditioner to address my hair concerns which seem to be contradictory. To address my oily scalp and dry ends, I usually have to use a combination of treatments, shampoos and conditions/masks but this set addressed my hair concerns.
The shampoo left my hair soft and scalp clean without being overly dried. I love that this is available at the supermarket, making it so accessible. Great quality shampoo, conditioner and serum which is easily available.
Impressed!
This shampoo has been such a lovely surprise. It lathers beautifully and feels so refreshing on the scalp. I loved that it gave my roots a really clean feeling without stripping my ends or making them feel dry. My hair felt weightless, bouncy, and genuinely hydrated after each wash. I also found that I could go longer between washes without my hair looking limp or greasy. The scent is fresh and subtle, and it rinses out easily without residue. Highly recommend for anyone who wants that deep-clean feeling while still keeping hair soft and nourished.
A Great Shampoo
This shampoo was great to use after treating your hair with the Hyaluron Pure Serum. After removing the oil from the roots, shampooing is a dream and really only needs one shampoo, especially if you have dry hair. I found it to be gentle on my hair, did not leave it feeling stripped of natural oils and overall a friendly product to use whenever. I also have coloured hair but in my opinion this shampoo did not have any adverse effects on the colour, but left my hair feeling thoroughly cleansed.
Great cheaper option
This shampoo has become a go-to for me. It’s affordable, easy to find at most supermarkets and pharmacies, and it actually does a solid job. It lathers well, gets rid of oil without stripping your scalp, and doesn’t leave your hair feeling weighed down. The bottle’s a handy size for the shower, and since you only need a small amount each time, it lasts ages. It’s gentle enough for dry or sensitive scalps and doesn’t mess with coloured hair. While it’s not quite on par with high-end salon products and has a few harsher ingredients, it’s a great everyday option that gets the job done.
Cleans effectively without drying hair
This shampoo works really well for those with oily roots and dry ends like me. The salicylic acid in it helps to purify the scalp, remove excess oil without making the hair feel dry. Also, the hyaluronic acid helps to add moisture and keeps hair hydrated yet lightweight. I have super oily roots and always struggled with the greasiness coming back only hours after shampooing. But with the help of this regime my scalp & hair feels fresh for days. It has a pleasant scent which is not too over powering. Moreover, it is at an affordable price point which is an added bonus. Overall, it's a good choice for people with oily scalp.
A great option for oily roots
This shampoo was a total win for me. The fragrance is beautiful — clean, fresh, and not overpowering — and it made washing my hair feel like such a treat.
Unlike other shampoos designed for oily scalps, this one didn’t leave my hair feeling stripped or dry. It cleansed thoroughly but still felt gentle, and my hair looked noticeably shinier afterwards.
It’s been a great addition to my routine and one I’ll definitely keep reaching for. A solid choice if you want your hair to feel fresh, soft, and super clean without that squeaky, stripped feeling.
I am loving it
I’ve been using the L’Oréal Paris Elvive Hyaluron Pure 72H Rehydrating Purifying Shampoo and I’m really liking it. My hair has a soft, clean, healthy feel and it doesn’t leave my scalp oily and dry at all, which is something I was concerned about with changing products and It actually feels fresh for days, which really surprised me in the best way. I tested it as part of the Review Crew and I’m so glad I got the chance to try it out. It’s made a noticeable difference and I’ll absolutely keep using it moving forward—it’s been such a win!
The best one for oily scalp
Over the years, my hair concerns have evolved — I now deal with an oily scalp, dry and brittle ends, and product buildup. Finding the right shampoo that addresses all of these needs without overcomplicating my routine has been a challenge — until I discovered this one.
Formulated with salicylic acid, it gently exfoliates and purifies the scalp, helping to clear away excess oil and buildup, while hyaluronic acid delivers hydration to dry lengths without weighing them down. It strikes the perfect balance: a deep yet non-stripping cleanse that leaves my scalp feeling fresh and hair feeling healthy from root to tip.
I typically use it few times a week, and I’ve noticed my scalp stays clean and balanced, which is a game changer for someone who used to wash their hair almost daily. It lathers into a rich foam, rinses out effortlessly, and leaves my hair feeling soft, bouncy, and light.
The scent is fresh and subtle — not overly perfumed or artificial — which I really appreciate. What makes it even better is that it’s affordable, easily accessible, and delivers noticeable results even when used on its own.
If you struggle with greasy roots but still need to keep your ends moisturized, this shampoo is a smart, no-fuss solution that truly delivers on all fronts.
Affordable and effective shampoo
This is the first time I’ve used shampoo from L’Oreal Paris Elvive. This shampoo smells nice, similar to the serum, minus the minty smell and cooling sensation. It is clear, lightweight and lathers easily. After rinsing out the serum, I use this shampoo, followed by the conditioner from the same range.
My scalp immediately feels refreshed after rinsing out the shampoo. My hair also looks shinier, bouncier and the end of my hair feel more hydrated. After using this shampoo, I noticed that my scalp is less oily and hair loss has also reduced. For the price, it does its job well!
Great results from first use
This was my first time using a shampoo with salicylic acid. As a regular swimmer, the chlorine plays havoc with my hair leaving me with a dry flaky scalp and oily hair. I have to wash my hair often which only worsens the problem. After just one use, I can already feel the difference the L’Oréal Paris Elvive Hyaluron Pure 72H Rehydrating Purifying Shampoo has made, leaving my hair and scalp clean and oil free for longer, and my hair is so soft. I have noticed that my natural curl has dropped a bit, but I'm also left with less frizz.
Lives up to its promise
You’ve just got to love L’Oréal Paris Elvive; not only do they deliver on price point, but the quality is outstanding. The L’Oréal Paris Elvive Hyaluron Pure 72 hours Rehydrating Purifying Shampoo is delightful to use and delivered what is says it will do. The shampoo foams up very nicely into a rich, satisfying lather which feels like it is really cleansing without stripping. After the second shampoo I was very satisfied with my hair’s readiness for conditioner.
The shampoo has a light fruity floral scent which is rather pleasing and not at all overpowering. One of my pet peeves is vividly smelling hair care products!
My hair is fine, medium long length and undyed (natural silvers). I am also happy that the shampoo is not coloured as this would be not compatible with my hair.
The conditioner gave back the moisture and bounce I was seeking.
My hair remains feeling fresh after the 3rd day; so this shampoo is living up to its promise.
Lightweight hair and gloss
I have oily roots, so my hair gets greasy so quickly. I also have long hair where my ends often need nourishment, so this range sounds just right for me. This clear shampoo combined with the conditioner has left my hair feeling light and very glossy. I did find it doesn’t lather very well and it doesn’t feel squeaky clean even on the second or third(!) cleanse, so it feels like it’s not cleaning as well as I’m used to. However, after drying, my hair doesn’t feel weighed down at all. I’ve used Elvive previously (another range) and it’s generally a good quality brand at a great price.
Soft and Shiny Hair
From the first use L’Oréal Elvive Hyaluron Pure 72H Rehydrating Purifying Shampoo made my hair feel less greasy at the roots and soft and shiny all over. I was surprised that one use of the entire range including the serum and conditioner made such a difference to my hair and at such a great price point too. My hair feels great and less greasy at the roots in between washes too. The smell is a quite subtle and refreshing peppermint with a dash of grapes. I can feel extra volume in my hair without the frizz. I definitely recommend using the entire range for beautiful hair.
A great first impression
I was able to trial this product in place of my usual shampoo and conditioner and I was quite impressed to see how well it tackled my hair during a very active week at the gym.
My hair was quite oily and sweaty this week and the shampoo handled that greasiness like a champ in conjunction with the serum. It was nice being able to spend the week with my hair looking fresh and visibly clean as well as not having to worry about my hair becoming oily throughout the day.
I am glad to report that I did not find this shampoo too harsh on my scalp or drying on my ends. Instead this shampoo was very gentle while being very effective even on days where my hair wasn't as oily as other days.
Great shampoo
This shampoo is fantastic. My hair feels fantastic. I definitely will be buying this product again. It's a must on the shopping list. The first day I used it I could tell a big difference in my hair. It felt soft and smelt beautiful. My hair felt hydrated again and full of life. Before using this shampoo my hair was full and brittle and felt like steel wool. After using this shampoo along with the conditioner my hair feels back to beautiful again. I'm very happy with this product. The packaging is lovely and eye grabbing. It's also a great price not too expensive on the budget. I love the colour of the package. It's a great product overall and I can't fault it.
Clean but not squeaky clean hair.
This shampoo is the second step in the L'Oreal Paris Elvive Hyaluron haircare range. It is used after the scalp serum, but you can still use it on it's own as well. It contains sulphates so there is a lot of lather, It also contains salicylic and hyaluronic acid which I use in my skincare products but have never seen in a haircare product before trialing this range. The bottle is nice and big with 340ml of shampoo and is made from recycled plastic. The scent is mild but pleasant, and it cleans my hair thoroughly in just one wash. This is perfect for people with oily roots but drier lengths, I have long hair and don't wash it every day, This shampoo gets my scalp and roots clean but does'nt dry out the lengths of my hair, It is accurately described and does what it promises so it's really beneficial for my hair, leaving my roots feeling lighter and cleaner. Anyone can use this shampoo but I think longer hair really benefits from it the most.
Clean scalp and plump ends!
This shampoo is such a perfect find for my hair type! I have oily roots but fine hairs that tend to get dry and frizzy on the ends. This product gives my scalp such a deep, satisfying clean without leaving my ends feeling stripped off its oil or frizzy. Instead, my hair has been feeling so soft, plump, and hydrated, almost like it has more air in it. I have also noticed that my hair stays fresh and voluminous for longer, so I can now stretch washes by two extra days, which is super convenient for me. Also like the fact that this shampoo comes in a big 340ml bottle that will last me long. The combo of salicylic acid and hyaluronic acid is just genius, and I love the clean, fresh scent every time I use it.
Clean without being stripped of moisture
It's hard to tell which product worked the best in the L'Oreal Paris Elvive Range - they all did a great job of making my scalp and hair feel nourished and clean, without stripping excess oil and creating dryness. Eliminating dandruff is always a fine line between stripping the scalp of the flakes, without making it dryer with the active ingredients. I really appreciate this range in the middle of a dry and cold winter when my dandruff tends to flare up.
I found the shampoo to do a great job of eliminating leaving my hair feeling clean, without being stripped.
Clean hair for 3 days
I have long hair with oily roots and dry ends and normally choose purifying shampoos. But I always use it only once a week because they are too drying for myself.
Surprisingly with this Elvive line this didn’t happen. I use all three products every time I wash my hair (which thanks to the serum I guess is once every 3 days, and before that I washed my hair every other day) and very happy with the result.
My hair feels very light and bouncy. And looks healthy and shiny.
The scent of it isn’t overpowering but it stays for days, which I personally like.
I will keep using it and repurchase when this one ends.
