Update on new Body Shop Haircare

Citygirl1

Hi, has anyone got an update on the new Body Shop haircare? I had a sample of the one for oily hair and it made my hair dull and flat but I have now tried the one for coloured hair and so far its OK, though I did use it straight after colouring my hair last night so it might just be the colour that’s making my hair shine.

Has anyone else used it yet? The girls at the Body Shop say that you don’t realise how much rubbish is in normal shampoos until you use it but I guess they are bound to say that.

I used it about a week ago, was given a sample and its OK, but still prefer my regular shampoo, just didn't leave my hair feeling as soft or gave it as much volume, both of which I need.

I tried the sample and wasn't impressed with it.

Is it something to do with it not having any SLS (I could be wrong here) - I tried the Lush natural shampoos and it did the same to my hair - lank, matted, tuggy and generally not very nice.

I had a sample given to me of the one for coloured hair, I might try it this morning. I try to use shampoos without too many chemicals in, so use Green People ones.

I don't use Lush shampoos as many (if not all) of them contain SLS believe it or not - I thought they wouldn't as well as they are supposed to be so natural.

I have had a few samples of the new shampoos. I would love to use a shampoo with no SLS in it, but they don't seem to be great for my hair. Nothing bad, just didn't make my hair look and feel as good as the old one I was using.

I was using the Body Shop Ginger shampoo, which does have some SLS in it, though not as much as many others.

I bought the new moisturising shampoo before it came out (my local shop had them in early), but suspect that I'll go back to the Ginger one afterwards, which is luckily not being discontinued.

Have you tried Avdea? they don't use SLS in their products.

Good news for me yay - I'm allergic to SLS would be lovely to have an alternative shampoo.

And Jennie is right re Aveda, their shampoos are the only ones I can use at the minute. The scalp therapy one is particularly good.
