Pros: Good for hair, not drying
Cons: I don't like the rosemary smell

I have been using this shampoo for about 2.5 months, and have seen good results using every other day in my CWC routine. My hair feels clean, and the scent is easily covered by the conditioner I use.

Pros: Brought out reddish/light brown highlights in my brown hair
Cons: strong, icky odor that lingers, contains wheat protein

I tried this shampoo for my very fine hair before I knew how my hair reacted to protein. (It feels very weird, and gets tangly.) The only pro about this shampoo is that it brought out highlights and shine in my medium brown hair.
I found that the rosemary smell was very overpowering, and lingered, to the point of giving me a headache. If you are sensitive to smells or get headaches that are triggered by odors, you might want to pass up this shampoo.

Pros: SLS Free, No Animal Testing, No Parabens, Natural Fragrance
Cons: Lack of suds and the smell

This product worked well at first. Hair was nice, shiny, plenty of volume, and smooth. The major problem was that my oily scalp just wasn't getting clean enough. I'd still feel oily after shampooing. So I started shampooing twice and that took care of it. But the product is mighty pricey to be using it twice per wash. The smell is very....herbal. It's not terrible but I don't really like it. Also, the poo doesn't create many suds. To remedy this you have to apply the shampoo to hair immediately after total saturation. I found that mixing some of the poo with water in a separate bottle did help with the suds issue. I still found it easier to evenly apply the product right after dunking my head though.

This product would probably work best for someone with a normal scalp or someone who washes everyday.
