Truth in Advertising: Pantene 3 Minute Miracle


A few weeks ago, I did a survey with ilovebdj.com to qualify for a Pantene 3 Minute Miracle sample. Simply register with your email to be qualified for occasional perks and freebies.

Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner review
Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner

Truth be told, Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner was one of the haircare releases I let pass with a side eye. In general, I let haircare releases pass with a side eye. As I mentioned in my last haircare review, the industry is chock-full of meaningless catchphrases.


Price:

Php 59 / 70ml, Php 159 / 130ml,  Php 259 / 340. I have a 70ml sample.

Pantene is easily available in most grocery and beauty stores. Click here for the 3MM product page.


Product Description:

The 3MM is part of the Total Damage Care collection, so you can easily get shampoos, masques and treatments from the same line if you want to supplement this routine.

It claims to have 80% more conditioning agent than Pantene's regular conditioner. The big advertising claim here is that in 3 minutes, it can transform, revitalize or resurrect damaged hair.

Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner review
Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner
The product itself is not extremely heavy nor creamy. It is more gel-like though is still thick enough to hold up a peak. It has a strong scent close to raspberries, but not exactly.


How to Use:

Use as a conditioner, leave on for 3 minutes, then rinse.
BBT Tip: Get your hair as dry as possible prior to application to avoid dilution of the conditioner. On weekends, I towel-dry my hair after shampooing to get even more water out of my hair.
I like to comb through before leaving it up in a clamp, just to make sure that I get the product applied through all sections of my hair.


Performance:

Amazing.

Truth in advertising.

Bravo.

SERIOUSLY!

I didn't hold a lot of expectations for this product but I was completely blown away. It does exactly what it says it will.

I use conditioner 2-3x a week so I know the difference between my crispy hair and my conditionered hair. 3MM-ed hair goes way beyond even my best conditioners!

It's almost like getting hair (keratin) treatment. There's a whole lot of smoothness and even the jagged feel of my split ends are gone though I can still see them there, obviously. Hair does get to be a little bit heavy in that supersmooth, bendy, frou-frou way it does in commercials, but never greasy.


Lasting Power:

It is meant and encouraged as a daily routine but I don't like using conditioner everyday as I don't think my thin strands can bear the weight. I feel comfortable with the results for up to 3 days though I can still feel the very last bits of the smoothening effect at day 5.

Using it daily still yields a much 'healthier' feel to the hair.


Edge:

Conditioner that is as potent as a treatment / mask.


Rebuy:

You bet your bottom dollar!


Beauty by Tellie score: 5 / 5 - Trusted By Tellie

Hall of famer over here. The Pantene 3 Minute Miracle is as potent as a treatment or mask. In fact, it outperforms many of the lesser treatments and masks I've tried. It smooths, softens and silkifies my hair even on its crunchiest days.

Have you ever gotten hair treatment and felt like your hair was still "thirsty" afterwards? If you're constantly disappointed by that feeling, I exhort you to give Pantene 3MM conditioner a try.


I was sent a Pantene 3MM sample for participating in an ilovebdj.com survey. I was not paid nor otherwise compensated to present a positive feature.
