What makes the Banana & Shea Butter Hair Food Mask “supercharged”?
This new version is boosted with Vitamins C, E, and F for healthier hair. Vitamin C adds shine, Vitamin E helps hair feel hydrated, and Vitamin F supports stronger strands. Blended with nourishing shea butter and natural oils, it’s Garnier’s most nutrient-packed formula yet. The result is smoother, softer, and visibly healthier hair from the first use.
How do I use this mask correctly?
You can use it in three easy ways. As a conditioner, apply to wet hair and rinse. As a mask, leave it on for 3 minutes before rinsing for deep nourishment. As a leave-in, apply a small amount to damp or dry hair to tame frizz and boost shine. Its lightweight, creamy texture melts into the hair without weighing it down.
Is this mask suitable for all hair types?
Yes. It’s designed, tested, and approved for all hair types, including Type 4 curls and coils. Whether your hair is straight, wavy, or textured, the Banana & Shea blend provides intense moisture while keeping hair soft and manageable. It’s especially effective on dry or brittle hair that needs extra care.
How often should I use the Hair Food Mask?
You can use it as often as your hair needs. For dry or damaged hair, 2–3 times a week helps restore softness and shine. If your hair is fine or normal, once a week is enough to maintain healthy moisture levels. Because it’s silicone-free, it won’t build up or make your hair feel heavy.
Can this mask replace my regular conditioner?
Yes. The 3-in-1 formula works beautifully as your main conditioner or treatment. It detangles easily, leaves hair smooth, and helps reduce breakage after one use. You can switch between the three uses depending on how much care your hair needs that day.

Smells Amazing

I've used this as a quick conditioner once when I was pushed for time but this evening finally tried it out as a mask whilst having a bit of a pamper sesh in the bath. Although the first time, it left my hair soft, tonight I saw its full potential.
Firstly, it smells amazing (if you like bananas!) but the fragrance doesn't seem to last long on my hair.
I left the mask on for 15 minutes whilst I did a mini facial then rinsed out thoroughly and dried it. I was left with beautifully soft, shiny hair. It's much more difficult to show shine on ginger hair than on a darker colour, but just checkout this gloss!

Banana & Shea Hair mask

I have been using this product since last couple of weeks. The results are amazing as this leaves my hair very smooth and silky. The only issue i have with this product is it's smells like rotten banana in my hair. But overall the product is good for the value.

I’ve been using the Garnier Ultimate Blends Hair Food Banana 3-in-1 for a while now and I honestly really like it! My hair can get quite dry, especially towards the ends, and this leaves it feeling much softer and smoother after using it.
I love that you can use it in three different ways depending on what your hair needs. I mainly use it as a hair mask and leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing, and my hair feels noticeably more nourished afterwards. It also makes my hair much easier to brush through and leaves it feeling less dry without making it feel greasy or weighed down.
The banana scent is lovely too — it smells sweet and fresh and actually lingers on my hair for a little while after washing.
The tub is a really good size for the price as well, and you don’t need loads of product each time, so it lasts a good while. Definitely one I’d repurchase if your hair is feeling dry or needs a bit of extra moisture!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Firstly the hair masks, I’m blown away at how big the tub is and how well it works on my hair. As someone with a lot of massive curls, I need a regular mask and this is a new fave. As for the hair drink, it took some getting used to as it’s not a product I fully understand, that said, I did notice I got a lovely shine after using it that I didn’t get with the hair mask alone
Yes, I recommend this product.

The smell is divine and the texture is great. Alittle bit goes along way. The smell even stays after your hair is dry. We’ve used it as a conditioner and als used it to style our curly hair
