Not great
It smells very nice, but it left my hair quite sticky. I would not use this again.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Short Time Relationship.......
My family has gone through every formula offered by Herbal Essences. We run into the same problem every time...build up. The first 2 or 3 times the shampoos and conditioners worked great and then they starting building up and giving all 4 of us (2 adults, 2 teenagers) oily roots, flakes, and frizzy ends. I know a lot of people love Herbal Essences but we don't anymore based on experience.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

A "breakup" waiting to happen....
Up until recently, I have not tried Herbal Essences products in years. Prior to Long Term Relationship, I was using Color Me Happy which was just okay. However, I just came off of a prestige shampoo that was just as awful as it was expensive and my budget was screaming for me to try this. One of the biggest issues I have with HE shampoos, at least the ones that I am aware of, is that they contain ...read moreBOTH Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and Sodium Laureth Sulfate - this is way too drying and is totally unnecessary. I LOVE lather so I would never go without; however, this takes lather to a whole new level that can cause issues with dryness when using long term. The challenge with that is often times when hair is damaged or dry, nothing can really correct it fully except a good haircut; a problem for those of us with long hair! Anywho, I digress. (For drugstore shampoos with ONLY Sodium Laureth Sulfate {the better of the two!} check out Dove products and Clear Scalp & Hair.) So, for this shampoo, I hated the texture. I think HE was trying to create a "creamy" feeling shampoo; however, the texture was just really off. On top of that, the color coming out of the bottle is a very sick looking pink. It lathers well (too well) sort of like detergent and the smell was off (ironically, the smell of the conditioner was divine!); I can't really describe it. It just wasn't that great. I didn't take any stars off for this, but I must mention it: I experienced a lot of breakage and fallout from my hair while cleansing it, combing it and throughout the day. MUCH more than I have ever seen with any other shampoo/conditioner, including the Color Me Happy Line. I can't say for certain that it was as a result of this product, but I can say that my diet hasn't changed, I am not sick, I take a multivitamin and am healthy. The other day at work I was just pulling clumps of loose hair out from my ponytail. Personally, I think it is the product but it is next to impossible to really be sure.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
