great for african american hair, October 22, 2009
By alicat72 from ohio

"i have had a really hard time finding a product that works on my daughters african american hair. her stylist recommended it and i'm amazed at how well it works. it makes her curls lay in ringlets rather than be frizzy. the conditoner is fantastic as well. i even use a dab as a leave -in cond. after washing. it also smells wondeful. not too strong."

"I have curly hair that is on the dry side. I would like a shampoo that is more moisturizing for my hair and scalp type. Other wise good product.
The conditioner in this brand works well on my hair.

"An exotic touch to start your day. Leaves hair soft and silky with a wonderful scent. I feel my hair is much healthier now that I use this product exclusively along with conditioner. Leaves hair soft and shiny even after coloring. Also this is a terrific value compared to in store price! I wish they came in larger bottles."

"The thing that sold me on this was its' scent. I smelled it in a drugstore and decided I had to have it. I immediately logged on and bought the wash/conditioner combo.
This product lathers well, smells heavenly and softens hair nicely. I didn't notice at first that it was advertised for "dry hair". My hair is very, very fine and wavy (a.k.a a NIGHTMARE) and this has the tendency to weigh it down - but just a little. I do notice my hair gets greasy a little quicker when using this and the conditioner, I guess because it is meant for dry hair.
Overall, I still use it everyday and like it very much!

"This shampoo has great ingredients, and smells yummy, but even with the conditioner, my hair is dry. I don't use a lot of hair products, maybe just once a week to style, and don't cut my long hair at all, so I need LOTS of moisture. My husband really likes it, but I'm going to keep looking."
