herbal shampoos are not good for your hair. they dry your hair and coat them to make your hair seem shiny. all supermarket brands are the same. not good for your hair. makes your hair dry break and washes your colour out.

you really need to be using redken. redken work from the inside out on your hair shaft. its pricey but you only need a little bit. it lasts for 5-6 months depending on how often you wash your hair.
it really is worth it if you care about your hair.

its really simple
i loved the old herbal essence , it smelt wonderful it felt wonderful
if only i could find a guy like that lol

but this new one is horrible , in every way , i was a devoted customer , but i will not purchase this new excuse for a shampoo ,

BRING BACK THE OLD HERBAL ESSENCE LINE !
PLEASE !

I used the Herbal Essences Hydralicious Reconditioning Conditioner. I had high expectations for it.
I am a male, and have dry and rough hair. Here is my findings:

▶ My hair was less frizzy than before.

▶ I suffered from having itchy hair, but now the conditioner cured it.

▶ My hair is softer but not very significantly.

▶ The smell is great, but it sometimes overpowers me. However, its scent is still persistent even after few hours of using the product.

Overall, this product is probably the best one you can get from a drugstore shampoo/conditioner. Plus, it is definitely better than Pantene, but cheaper.

I had tried this shampoo. It did nothing special. That type of shampoo can be rather harsh on your hair and mine is fine and all. When I did work temp for Clairol I heard something about the shampoo from an employee as if it was a secret. One could almost guess it anyway. The thing with the herbs and all making it better is pretty much overdone. He said there is only a very small amount of herbs that is in the shampoo for the women to make them think that it is. I really stay away from Clairol. The manager there had also said something nasty near me since she seemed to know I didn't like animal testing or guessed. They are supposed to have stopped animal testing but will again if it is deemed necessary. That is the word from the last I had heard.

I had this really nasty, oily, greasy spot in my hair near the top of my head. It would clear up whenever I colored my hair but would come back a few days later.

Someone recommended a clarifying shampoo and another said not to use anything with panthenol in it. Treseme has panthenol and it supposedly causes even more buildup in hair. I tried using Suave's Daily Clarifying shampoo and conditioner. They didn't work at all.

I looked around on the internet for solutions to my problem and found the suggestion of using baby powder to soak up the oil. It worked okay but was very messy.

So I looked through shampoos and conditioners at a retail store and decided to get Herbal Essenses Degunkify shampoo and Drama Clean conditioner. They worked! My hair is clean, light, and smells great and I love it! I would rate it five stars but it's a little pricey for a brand available in retail stores.

If I am going for cheap shampoo or conditioner I'd go straight for Herbal Essences. All of them smell great and seem to do their jobs. I also like the new packaging on the bottles and the fact that they have funny little sayings on them now!

Herbal Essences is good for what it is--a low-cost brand with herbal fragrances. They are pleasant scents and not too overpowering, though not so pleasing as portrayed in the commercials with women screaming in the shower while using them. Unlike most drugstore brands, I've found that you don't need to use a ton of this for it to work.

I've tried just about every shampoo Herbal Essences has, but they don't do anything for me.
They smell great, yes, but it makes my normal hair dry out :(

i hate the new herbal essences it really dries out my hair. i loved the old one it really did the job and smelt great. its like they spent so much money on packaging and range that they scrimped on the quality .i have to find a new conditioner now!:(

What a aweful decision to discontinue "Herbal Essences Purifying Shampoo"!!!! A month ago I bought the new "alternative" - De-gunkifying something. First of all, it took me 15 minutes to figure our which series I need to choose - the "cute" names are cheesy and unclear! I don't have time to translate what a heck they ment by "Drama Queen", etc! Is it so hard to write "For Oily Hair", "For Dry Hair", "For Qurly Hair", etc?

Second, I used the new shampoo a few times and it was just bad! It has some sort of tingling effect which makes my skin feel like it's burning - especially my face, ears and neck! Plus, I don't understand why everyone is so crazy about the smell - it's pretty lame.

Yesterday I found my last bottle of the old "Clarifying" shampoo and squeezed the last drops out of it. OMG, It was such a great experience! My hair felt very soft even before I used conditioner! It smells 1000% better than the new series! Not to mention that my oily thin hair looks and feels great! I'm really going to miss it...=(

I will never EVER buy this new crap again. Bad choice, P&G! I can't beleive you betrayed your old clients that stuck with you throught hard times...

Please help me find Herbal Essence breaks over strengthening leave in cream /coco mango. they discontinued it. I cant find it any were. I have naturally curly hair. It moisturizes and prevents breakage. I used it everyday. If you know of a place that may still carry this item please let me no. I will buy the whole lot. thank you.

It's okay until herbal essence discontinued their acid rain-blend. Man, I loved that stuff.

I've used Herbal Essences for a couple of months now. I believe around.. since.. Jan? Or before? It's not recommended for EVERYONE. It does sometimes give me a dry feeling, when I get out of the shower, but after it's completely dry. It's soft, and smooth. Usually my friends keep commenting on how my hair smells good and feels soft (: I'm in love with this product. My faves are Totally Twisted, and Drama Clean. I'm not a HUGEEE fan of the thicker shampoos tho =/ They seem too thick for my hair. But they smell good, and don't damage my hair. Other products like the moussing is amazing, I've used the totally twisted styling mousse to scrunch my hair up tons. It leaves my hair looking naturally curly/really wavy in a good way. And leaves it smelling great. I recommend this to people who are fond of great smelling products, and knows whats good for their hair. Once again. It's not recommended for everyone.

They smell good, but that's about it. My hair was always dry. I won't buy it again.

they were okay at one point but they suck now. ever since they released those flirty cutsey shampoos they dry out your hair and make you look like a hobo. i never want to use herbal essences again.

Herbal essences really dries my hair and not in a good way! It might be good for some ppl but definetly not me!

Smells good, but doesn't work that well. If you have color treated hair, this shampoo will actually change the color of your hair. The ph is unbalanced, and it has a lot of detergent in it. Not the best, and for the price it needs to be improved.

It's weird that some people said that Herbal essences it's a shit, cause in my experience I've used every single Herbal Essences collection(including the long term relationship for long hair) and all work great! Of course I have my favorites (Breaks Over and totally twisted) but any of them it's a bad product. I have very long hair and it's been treated couple times and my hair always looks spectacular. No kidding, I love my hair and I love this shampoo and conditioner.

I love this shit.

I love Herbal Essence Shampoo. I have used it everyday since last month. It has an amazing smell. I love the bodifying citrus one. It gives my hair so much shine. My friends always ask me what I use in my hair, because no offense but there hair is incredibley greasy. It is so feathery, shiny, and love to touch when I walk out of the shower. It's AMAZING!

I have tried the new one for long hair, it's called long term relationship it smells awesome. It has red raspberries and satin. I live here in Canada. The shampoo came out last week or so. It is supposed to be in the United States sometime soon. I like this product and others when they try it might like it too.

i use herbal essences totally twisted and it works and smells wonderful.It also makes my hair look very shiny.

I recently tried the new Drama Clean range. It is THE WORST!!!! Gave me a very itchy scalp and very bad dandruff. Stay right away!!!

I have seen no difference in my hair and they smell pretty bad compared to the old collection! The Color Me Happy line definitely smells the best...but the rest make me wonder how they could go from being the best-smelling hair product line to being the WORST.

This stuff is crap. It strips your hair of the oils it needs and leaves your hair dry and brittle.

I loved the old Herbal Essences Clarifying Shampoo. Why o why do manufacturers discontinue wonderful products without giving us poor consumers any warning so we can stock up. The new "De-gunkifying" Shampoo is AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL.(The bottles are ugly, too, and those "cutesy" labels are totally lame!) This new product leaves my hair stickier and gunkier than it was before. I hope Clairol wises up and brings back the wonderful product. NO STARS for new Herbal Essences!

Review of Herbal Essences Dangerously Straight Shampoo:
The first time I used this product my hair seemed like it was "shocked". My hair became stringy (not normal) and tangled...I kept using it because I don't like to throw away bottles that are almost full and I tend to be frugal...After a while my hair became brittle, damaged, extremely dry and started to crack. I finally left the bottle alone and went to buy a "salon product" which is for dry/damaged hair. This product did not make my hair straighter at all and totally damaged it.

Pros
I supposed it cleansed my hair??

Cons
expensive, "dangerous" to your hair's health, FALSE advertisement, amongst other things.

I have used Herbal Essences Clarifying shampoo and Puryfying conditioner for many years and loved them HOWEVER, I have recently tried the NEW Herbal Essence DEGUNKIFY shampoo - and it is AWFUL, it is the worst product I have ever tried. I don't even think this product is safe to strip my floors!
It does smell good though.

very drying but smells really nice.

I was going to only give this two stars, as in "bad" but the smell is amazing. However, I also noticed extreme dryness after use, even after conditioning, which means that I will never go back to this one again.

I just purchased this new Herbal essence Citrus bodifying shampoo and the conditioner for Fine hair, its great, and it doesnt weigh your hair down!! i bought also the detangling spray which also is fantastically new, and its GREAT!! ive tried all the rest of herbal essence shampoo lines (except the color treated line!! i dont color my hair!!), it seems all the other lines weigh my hair down, But the fruit fusions oily formulation, this one is great also, But as for the new citrus line i would highly recommend this new shampoo line, it softens my hair, plus it leaves a Wonderful scent!! I sure hope they come up with family sizes for this citrus line, also family size body washes!....They also have a citrus normal hair version shampoo and seperate conditioner, i tried that, but its a little too moisturizing for my hair, i love the fine hair citrus shampoo and the conditioner,To inform you this fine citrus conditioner is dark pink in color, just like the bottle, its GREAT!!! Please try this citrus line,I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ONE!!!!

I would of done 100 stars if they had it!!!!!!!! I completley LOVE herbal essences!!!!! All my friends, I tell them about it. I get asked every day, oh, your hair is SO soft, what shampoo do you use? And I tell them. They have products for every hair style. go to www.herbalessences.com and do the quiz. I notice the difference exspecially w/ the hawafina conditioner. As soon as I rinse it out in the shower, I feel smooth, no tangle hair. I then brush it. I have been using Herbal Essences for 6 months now, havn't had tangles in 6 months, and am never switching.

It smells really good, but that's the best thing it has going for it. Their shampoo and conditioner isn't really effective for my dry and fine hair.

Way too much fragrance. It could cause dandruff on a bald person ! I do not recommend this stuff at all.

smells bad

I had also tried the shampoo and conditioner and they both were one of the worst ones that I have used. The shampoo left by hair drier and brittle, and the conditioner wasn't any better. It left my hair flat. After I have watched the commericals for this shampoo, I would have never even have bought it to begin with. The commerical is geared for over sexed little boys. Not for women. If they want women to buy there product I would recommend that they improve there product and get rid of the over sex commericals.

Outside of the FLAGRANT false advertising (haha, I really wish shampoo could do that for me! I want my money back!), it's just your run-of-the-mill shampoo that just smells really nice. It's a bit on the drying side, too, which I see is a common complaint here. At leat I'm not the only one . . .

It's not horrible it's not great. It's a great alternative though for people that can't afford salon products...

As for the shampoo it is okay. Nothing all that special.Gets the hair clean fairly nice smell to the shampoo. I only give it a three because I am rating the shampoo. If I were rating the commercial it would get a 1. it is about the most stupid and annoying commercial on TV right now. Please, take it off for good.

Whores having "orgasms" during commercials. This kind of crap is one reason I'm glad I don't have children. I certainly don't want impressionable kids watching this, but since they're on ALL THE TIME, it can't be avoided. Then we have fools who wonder why teenagers get pregnant all the time. Not funny. Do not buy this product.

Shampoo smells good no more manageability than just getting my hair wet. Overrated bigtime.

I liked it at first, the smell was great. But after using it for about 6 months, I am starting to notice dryness and breakage in my hair. I think I am going to switch to something else. It also took away the shine and nice dark natural brown color of my hair(which I am very upset about, I might add!!)

Love the way it smells mmmm good :)

I love the smell and they do a good job of cleaning your hair.

Herbal Essences is an awful line of products! I do think they smell good but, other than that they suck! After using their shampoo & conditioner my hair became dried out and felt horrible. They put too much alcohol in their products but, I guess because they are just so cheap.

I've used herbal essence a few times and I wasn't all that pleased with it because it made my hair dry and the conditioner caused flatness. Yeah, it smells good and it probably works better for people with thicker hair. I also think that the advertisements are ridiclous because the product isn't really much to scream about.

I see no point in keeping the dead tissue of my hair healthy-It just smells good.

I love Herbal Essences, Every time I use it, even after soccer practice when my hair is so tangled a brush can't even take care of it, when I use herbal essences, my hair is detangled and calm, and I can maintain it this way easier.

Smells good and leaves my hair soft and shiny, but don't ever expect to have an "organic experience" like you see in the cheesy commercials.

Britney?! Yes sir! Always Britney! Whether it´s good or not, I don´t care! It´s Britney, and it´s greeeeeeaaat!!!!!! (no kidding, I liked the commercial but the schampoo stinks.....take a joke will ya?)
