My review of the Diamond Shine shampoo is very similar to that of the conditioner, so you may read identical bits. I absolutely LOVE to shop at Sally Beauty and it took a while for me to give in and buy the Diamond Shine Shampoo and Conditioner (they have sales every now again where you get 2 liters for $15, basically you get one for free). I bought this because I was looking for an (inexpensive) ...read moresulfate-free shampoo and conditioner that was good for color-treated hair, but was going to strengthen and fortify it because I want to grow it longer. After finishing a liter of both the shampoo and conditioner, I can say that I like it, but I don't love it. Yes, my hair seems a tiny bit more stronger because I don't see split ends as frequently as normal (then again I don't know if my leave-in conditioner is doing most of the work), and my hair seems a little bit shinier (then again I have shine sprays if I wanted shiny hair. My hair is very thick and coarse, and this did not make it feel soft like more 'reputable' salon brands. The shampoo seems to run out quickly because I need a lot more if it than other salon brands. In noticed that the entire system works best if you use both the shampoo and conditioner. The conditioner does make your hair feel softer because the shampoo just doesn't do much alone. For someone like me who has used everything from the super cheap to the brutally costly, it's not a bad conditioner for someone looking for an upgrade from drug store stuff. In fact, that's my best recommendation. If you have been using drugstore shampoo and conditioner, give this a try. You can find it at Sally's. You'll definitely like this much better. However, if you have very high standards and your hair has a mind of its own like mine, then you might want to look elsewhere. This is definitely a decent shampoo that makes the Diamond Shine series worth a try, but it's up to you whether you will give it a second chance. Unfortunately, I won't.
