A good shampoo (like one of these) can make your hair look Pantene-commercial worthy. A bad shampoo like our readers voted some of these on the other hand … could make you a candidate for a bride of Frankenstein look-alike contest. Not good.

No. 8: Bumble and bumble Seaweed Shampoo, $16

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 4.4 (out of 10)

"I LOVE this conditioner but am not as crazy about the shampoo. It does have a funny smell and my hair doesn't feel clean after use." -- ChristiG, TotalBeauty.com member

No. 7: PHYTO PhytoSpecific Optimal Hydration Shampoo, $24

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 4.3

"For the cost you can buy another better shampoo; it's just not worth it." -- rogue78, TotalBeauty.com member

No. 6: Burt's Bees Rosemary Mint Shampoo Bar, $5.99

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 4.2

"If this 'shampoo' was made into a liquid form, I might try it again but it was pretty difficult to get enough lather to completely get my hair clean, and I ended up in the shower for way longer than I wanted to be." -- elizabasti, TotalBeauty.com member

No. 5: Suave Professionals Radiant Brunette Shampoo, $2.23

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 3.9

"Honestly, I didn't see any difference in my brunette hair. This shampoo left my hair rather tangled and the smell was not that great. It cleanses well but does not do what it claims to do which is make your hair radiant." -- mewchica, TotalBeauty.com member
