I'm liking this stuff too. I've been experimenting with so many different things and when I'm not overly happy with results I use this as my rinse out and have always had a good hair day. I don't seem to be able to use it for more that 2 days in a row though, but I definitely like it.

This is so cool. It looks nice Here in Australia it's called Nutri-Repair I think. But we also have two other cone-free conditioners; Body & Volume and Volume Reconstruct. I'm loving the fact they added olive oil, my hair can't get enough of it lol

I am late to this thread but I wish I wasn't! This stuff is fabulous!

Like the OP, I was in the Dollar General and noticed it. I was in there to get my normal Suave Naturals Conditioners and saw the GF Triple Nutrition. It was there for 3 bucks. I looked at it because it said "NEW". I just KNEW it would have cones... but to my suprise it didn't. So I took a bottle home to try it out.

Well I was pleasantly suprised. I used it for a co-wash. It left my hair super soft and shiny. I just couldn't get over it. I went right back to the Dollar General and got a whole bag full of the GF conditioners! LOL!

Lately, I had been trying some "non-CG" conditioners and the cones in them have been taking a bit of a toll on my hair I noticed very recently. So I've decided now to just go back full CG like I had been because my hair just responds better to the CG method.

So I used a sulfate shampoo to get the cones all out and my hair was pretty stripped. And my curls looked pretty sad.

Well, I used the GF Triple Nutrition as a deep treatment right after and sat under a hooded dryer for a bit. Well when I rinsed my hair it was incredibly soft and when all my hair dried.. it was still soft and my curls popped right back to life. Not to mention the shine I got!

GF Triple Nutrition for Damaged or Dry Hair is definitely one of my "holy grail" products now. I am actually going to the Dollar General on Monday and getting another whole bag full. I am very glad it's CG friendly. I hope they never change the formulation because it's great. The price point is awesome and it really works for my hair!

I even made a leave in with it.. in a spray bottle with distilled water and a teeny bit of grape seed oil. It's a good curl refresher!

Does the normal GF triple nutrition condish have parafinnum liquidum in it? I know the dryness reversal hair mask type one does, and until recently I didn't realize this was mineral oil...

Not on my bottle. I have only seen that with the dryness reversal tube.

So, after reading this entire thread, I headed to Walmart this morning and picked up a big bottle of this conditioner. I'm so excited to try it! I bought the big bottle in the hopes that I will really like it..haha!!

Talking I wanna try it!!!!!

I'm planning on going CG again after I finish my L'Oreal EverPure products since my Coppola Keratin Treatment has already worn off, and I'm definitely gonna buy a bottle to use as my rinse-out. The shampoo and conditioner are available in my local grocery store, but not the deep treatment. I'm probably gonna check in Walmart next month. Can't wait to try it!

You wouldn't want to use the DT anyway, it has mineral oil in it.

Got GFTN today at CVS: 13oz for $3.99 and 25oz for $7.99. I will try it tonight and report back. I just have to decide if I will co-wash, rinse out, leave in, spritz-n-condish, or all of the above with it!

Thumbs up L.O.V.E!!!! =D

OK...I know I said I'd try the conditioner next month, but I gave my old products to my mom, and I tried it this afternoon. OH, MY GOD...the comb literally just glided through my hair and when rinsing, it felt like wet silk. When it dried...WOW...I had flowing waves! My hair is soft, shiny, and frizz-free! Since I've just gone back to CG, I'm going to wait about a week to post pictures, because I haven't tried my co-wash with it, yet.

Talking

I absolutely LOVE Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Condish i added a bit of olive, avocado, jojaba, grapeseed,& shea butter oil to the condish and I tell you it is my LOVE!!! I use as a leave-in when my hair feels really dry, Sometimes I use as a co-wash and with the added oils I have the option 2 use as a deep conditioner. Its Cheap and Versatile...Its definitely a KEEPER for me!!

I used this condish yesterday as my rinse out and I didn't really like it. My hair was pretty frizzy and the curl definition was not very good. I used it today as my leave-in with much better results! I think this will be good for me to use as a co-wash or leave-in, but not as a rinse out.

Me too--results not so good. I used GFTN as co-wash and leave in and was very frizzy after drying last night. This morning my hair is very soft and limp. I'll have to try it again as a leave in, maybe with something else as a co-wash. I would definitely use it as a DT because it feels very rich.

I'm kind of bummed! I was hoping this would be really great for me. But I'll play around with it a little.

Mid-day update: I combed out my hair and used a little AOMM to tame the frizzies and I have reasonable wavy hair. This might be a good product if one wants to wear her hair straight or wavy as opposed to curly.

I also think I can try a few other techniques (denman, scrunching instead of raking and smoothing) to see how well it works the next time.

About the conditioner...I'm wanting to try it, but I'm so thrilled with my GVP Conditioning Balm that I have no desire to try anything else! Maybe sometime in the future

Sounds good, this stuff is found everywhere in Spain. I've never really liked Fructis products, they'd normally leave me with "hard" dry hair, but if this one doesn't contain cones I might give it a try.

I almost didn't bother opening this thread because when I saw GF in the title I immediately assumed it had amodimethicon in it which my hair hates.

I may have to pick this up. The ingredients seem similar to the Loreal Nutrivive co that a lot people on here like.
