Hello dear people! ❤❤❤
I hope you all are doing great! 🙂
So, does it ever happen to you that you see something in a shop that you don’t really need, but it is just too cute or quirky or unique and you buy it anyway? 😛
Well, it happens to me all the time! XD
And it is also how I came in possession of this wine shampoo a few months back, which I am going to review today for you all!
I had heard a lot about beer shampoos in the past, but a wine shampoo in a wine bottle kind of packaging was too unique for me to skip! 😛
ASTA BERRY WINE SHAMPOO

DESCRIPTION: Wine shampoo with conditioner, for long and healthy hair.
A rich shampoo that makes hair shinier. Grape is an excellent source of antioxidants that increase blood circulation in the scalp thus promoting hair growth. Grape seed oil helps fight dandruff and also makes hair soft and shiny.
INGREDIENTS: Aqua, Sodium Laureth Sulphate, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, Cocoamidopropyl Betain, Vitamin B3 (Panthenol), Amidomethicone, Cocodiethanolamide, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Grape Fruit Extract, Grape Seed Oil, Guar Hydroxytrimonium Chloride, Polyquat 10, Sodium Chloride, Citric Acid, DMDM Hydantoin, Disodium EDTA, Perfume, Cl 16035, Cl 42090, Cl 15850
COST: Rs. 150 for 200ml.
SHELF LIFE: 36 months.

MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT:
Asta Berry wine shampoo comes in a translucent, amber-coloured plastic bottle packaging with a red-coloured flip-cap on the top. The overall packaging (which resembles a red wine bottle) is quite sleek, sturdy and leak-proof which makes it really travel-friendly! ❤
All the necessary details about the product, including the complete list of ingredients, shelf life and price are mentioned over the bottle…

The shampoo has a smooth, runny consistency and is reddish violet in colour… It has an unusual but pleasant, artificial fruity fragrance which is quite mild and probably wouldn’t trouble the sensitive noses… 😛

The shampoo lathers quite well (though not as much as Pantene or Head & Shoulders shampoos) and cleanses the scalp and hair of all the dirt, grime, oil and impurities. I have long but thin hair and I have noticed that when my hair is not too dirty or greasy, one tablespoon of the shampoo is enough for a proper hair wash… But when I oil my hair or it gets too dirty, two washes are needed to cleanse the hair and scalp properly!
The shampoo rinses off with ease and doesn’t leave behind any residue, although, it may leave your hair slightly fragrant (which is only noticeable on sniffing)…

I have a normal to dry hair type and a normal, dandruff-prone scalp… I have been using this wine shampoo for over three weeks now and one thing that I have noticed clearly is that this shampoo does not reduce dandruff at all, unlike what it claims!
The shampoo makes the hair feel slightly soft post wash and doesn’t leave it too dry or rough… But it also doesn’t “condition” the hair enough and my hair starts to tangle within 12 hours of shampooing! Plus, my hair is already quite frizzy and it just increases its frizziness, making my tied hair look like a witch’s broom! 😛
On the other hand, one thing that I like about this shampoo is that with regular use, it may reduce the hair fall to some extent… I have seen a slight reduction in the number of hair strands that I lose every day, ever since I started using this…
It also imparts a shine to the hair which lasts for about two days and is mainly noticeable when you brush/comb your hair… 😀

Impressed with the list of ingredients. Grapes and grapeseed oil work wonders for scalp and skin. Thanks bringing detailed reviews to us.
Thank you for visiting dear!
Any shampoo that cleanses properly & doesn’t dry out hair is a good shampoo for me. And if a shampoo comes in a wine shaped bottle, it becomes a fav already. Thanks for your review Mrinal!
Thank you for visiting dear!
Heard of beer shampoo before but never heard of wine shampoo. Would love to try it. Thanks for sharing your review.
Thank you for visiting!
Love the fact that it is made from real black grapes as it make your hair soft and shinier. It’s a known fact that grapes are excellent for our health and are exceedingly being used in beauty products for their amazing qualities.
Thank you for visiting dear!
I would have loved this shampoo more had it not contained SLS. Also, may be next version they should add anti-dandruff qualities. Still this looks pretty decent and I would try.
I hope they do!
Lovely honest review by you. Love the way you write reviews covering pros and cons both. I liked the pics and quite intrigued by the ingredients of this shampoo.
Thank you dear!
I love the packaging of the product. May be we can try oiling our hair thoroughly before shampooing to do away the frizz. Just a suggestion for those like me who have turned week in the knee because of the packaging ?
Hahaha… 😀
Wine shampoo is new to me and yes packaging or names can sometimes attract. It happens with me too. Wish the shampoo was good and was SLS free. SLS do so much damage to hair and scalp. I try to stay away from SLS products.
I agree… SLS damages a lot!
Looks good that it cleans hair and keep them soft. But SLS is not something I am looking forward for.
Sulphates are damaging for sure…
This sounds like an effective shampoo that I need to try out. Have not used wine based shampoos till now.
Do give it a try! 🙂
Have never used a wine shampoo before. But it sounds interesting and worth a try. It sounds like a good shampoo to carry along on our travels.
Thank you for visiting! 🙂
The shampoo bottle looks attractive . As per your pros & cons, things becomes easy to decide to buy or not . Hmm can give it a try.
Thank you for visiting dear!
I had heard about various ingredients being useful for good hair, but wine is a first for me, and Asta Berry seems really promising, shall check it out
Thank you for visiting dear!
Very detailed review ?. I have little dry frizzy hair.. But currently Im having little dandruff issue too. So, it might not work for me. But I like Berry and wine together ? in shampoo.
Thank you dear!
Though it clear the dirt and oil from hairs, but I wish it would be effective for frizzy hairs and free from SLS
I agree with you!
Sounds like a product worth trying for sure, I just love the way how you have listed and down all the important points be it pros or cons. Thank you for sharing this beautiful review.
Thank you for visiting dear!
I have never heard of wine shampoo. I can give this shampoo a try sometime thanks for the honest review girl.
Thank you dear!
I have seen beer being used to wash and condition. Wine is something new. I would like to try this and my hair are frizzy too very difficult to manage.
Frizzy hair is a big problem! 😛
My brother used to keep saying that wine is good for hair and skin. I first thought he was teasing me but later on found out he was actually right. The sad part is it increases the frizziness.
I agree with you! 🙁
I have heard a lot about the wine as an ingredient to wash hair. This Asta Berry wine shampoo looks new to me, I didn’t like the fact that it contains SLS. Not for me, thanks for sharing your honest review about the Asta Berry wine shampoo
Thank you for visiting dear!
I have normal to dry hair, frizzy too and dandruff prone scalp if this didn’t suit u I think it won’t suit me either. No point trying. But I fell in love with the packaging. It is so beautiful.
I agree! The packaging is unique! 😀
I think i will pass this as dandruff review from you is not what i was expecting from the product. Thanks for the honest review.
Thank you for visiting dear!
thanks for the honest review. I think your skin type and hair type is same as Mine. I too have frizzy and rough hair. I think this shampoo does it magic on my hubby scalp
Thank you for visiting dear!
The pleasant fruity smell intrigued me the most, after knowing that it is free of parabens and is doesn’t leaves hair strands completely dry.
Thank you for visiting dear!
I have heard of beer shampoo, Wine shampoo is new for me. The product looks interesting just like the name, will give it a try
Thank you for visiting dear! ❤
OMG look at the bottle guys. It’s a shame though that it does not really work effectively on hair. My dry hair need something extra conditioning. Thanks for your honest review.
Thank you for visiting dear! ❤
I heard beer is good for shine in hair but haven’t heard anyone talking about wine shampoo. Like you I would have been intrigued looking at this bottle at store too. Oh SLS has done so much damage to my scalp over the years that it has become really sensitive and I have got hair fall and itchy scalp issues too. I would stay away from it if it has SLS. As always I appreciate your honest reviews.
Thank you for visiting dear! ❤
This is what I love about your blog an honest review I was actually looking for this astaberry shampoo but then this has a good amount of SLS I have to think again but then thank you so much for the review
Thank you so much for visiting dear! ❤
I think i should miss this as i have dry hair kind and another thing is I stopped using SLS include products for my hair.. Very nice review Mrinal.
Thank you dear!
Grape seed oil makes hair soft and shiny..its sounds so interesting as ingredients are too promising..
Thank you for visiting dear!
The bottle is like a real wine bottle, very cute. From your review though I’m not sure if trying out a new shampoo that doesn’t have proven effects is good for my hair.
Well, yes! Nothing too good about it! 😀
I have never heard of a wine shampoo before! I am intrigued to try it out just because of the unique concept. Thank you for sharing your review.
Thank you for visiting dear!
Thanks for a very helpful and a completely honest review. Knowing my hair type, this shampoo is not for me. I will recommend it to a friend though, I think it would suit her.
Thank you dear!
Very honest review… Wine shampoo sounds quite interesting! So, for a change I will give it a try!
