My Take: I was kind of on the fence about this shampoo based on my first impressions, mainly the scent (which is not bad; you can definitely detect the menthol and tea tree oil that are listed in the ingredients) and the texture of the product itself (it comes out of the bottle like a thick gel but when you rub it together it feels very sticky and kind of off putting). It also took quite a lot of product to cover my hair. But... once I got it in there it lathered decently and left my scalp tingly. The package says to leave it in for 2 minutes (which is a bit odd for shampoo I thought), but I listened and I'm so glad I did. When I rinsed the shampoo out, my hair felt like silk. I was shocked and amazed and pleased! Definitely an unusual product and it might not be for everybody, but I will definitely be using it again.

  1. There are so many more options now for hair care products. I was in Sally's a few weeks ago + was overwhelmed by the selections they had. Right now I'm a fan of Shea Moisture products + As I Am products.

    2. I know! There is definitely a growing market for natural/curly hair care. I love what I've tried from Shea Moisture so far (my hubby uses the Curling Smoothie every time he does our daughter's hair), but I haven't tried As I Am (yet). I'll have to look into that!

  2. I love this shampoo. Leave my hair super soft and it doesn't take a lot for me to get a good lather
