Chocolate-scented hair. [19 Apr 2008|02:09pm]
[ mood | blah ]

I want my hair to smell like chocolate!!!!! I can't explain how this came about or why, but it's just The Way It Is.

Philosophy makes some chocolate stuff that is a 3-in-1 shampoo/shower gel/bubble bath. I tried some samples of Chocolate Frosting and Dark Chocolate (each only available at present as part of gift packs) and also bought a bottle of Red Velvet Cake which has sort of a chocolate-covered cherry scent.

There are two problems with this stuff: 1) the scent doesn't seem to be very strong or long-lasting and 2) there isn't a corresponding conditioner.

I've spent some time today checking around for other chocolate-scented shampoos and conditioners online. To my dismay, the pickings are very slim indeed. Serendipity 3 makes a shampoo/conditioner (which, according to the one review I've spotted thus far has a long-lasting scent). I don't like that there isn't a separate conditioner. My hair is long now, and very fine. I need to condition every time I shampoo or bad things happen. I'm concerned that using a non-chocolately conditioner will cover over the scent of the shampoo.

I also found Chocolate Soy Milk Shampoo, but I can't find out much about it. And again, no conditioner to match!

One reviewer said John Frieda Brilliant Brunette smells like chocolate and coconut. But it isn't advertised that way. Also, I'm pretty sure I've bought this brand in the past and I don't remember it smelling anything like that! I also read a review for a brand called "Fudge" that got a low score for smelling more like "faux chocolate." I can't tell by reading the descriptions from the sellers that it is actually meant to smell chocolatey, so I'm not sure whether to even bother.

Any suggestions?
