Why: One woman says it "made my hair look frizzy and not moisturized. In fact, it looked like straw. I went ahead and went to work and one of my coworkers even commented on the frizz. Normally my hair is shiny even when I do the 'beachy' look on my own." Another reviewer calls the shampoo, "Tousle Me Greasy" and goes on to say, "now, it could just be my hair type because I am slightly oilier than most, but upon air drying my hair after using this shampoo my hair was frizzy, and it looked as though I hadn't even showered! The hair around my roots was heavy and almost clumpy. NOT ATTRACTIVE."

Why: One reviewer says, "I threw the Head and Shoulders out after using it twice. It smelled terrible and left my hair feeling gross. Maybe it works if you have dandruff. I won't buy it again." Another reader says, "Never use again! I used this product once and it left my hair feeling very sticky. I had to wash my hair TWICE the same day to remove the sticky feeling. NOTE: THE OTHER TWO WASHES WERE OTHER SHAMPOOS. I'm never using this again! It also made my scalp burn." Another woman says she "would not recommend" this and goes on to say, "I have tried this product several times hoping that it would work, but it only makes my scalp more dry."
Hair washing and drying is quite a chore, no? And your life is more or less ruled by when you're going to wash it, right? (Unless, of course, you have a pixie cut.) Regardless, we are all busy ladies and when we wash our hair, we expect our shampoo to clean and protect our hair color ... and for the smell to intoxicate all who are lucky enough to walk by us. We're not saying that you must spend a ton of money on hair care products to get the quality you're looking for, but what we are saying is that there is a huge difference in quality -- even among the shampoos in the drugstore aisles. And the shampoos on this list are not of high quality.
Here's a taste of our readers' testimonials -- some of their comments will make you LOL but all will encourage you to avoid these hair care products when shopping at the drugstore:
"Left my hair a tangled, almost matted mess"
"Makes my scalp more dry"
"Left my hair feeling very sticky"
"My hair doesn't feel as clean after I rinse"
"It made my hair look and feel like pubic hair"
"Left my hair feeling gross"
"Made my hair look frizzy"
"It looked as though I hadn't even showered!"
"Seemed to dry my hair out even more"
"It left my hair feeling waxy"
"Made my soft, silky hair rough"
"It was pretty difficult to get enough lather to completely get my hair clean"
Did we pique your interest? Are you wondering which shampoos they're talking about? Well, the wait is over.
