Editor Review

Rated a 8

Looking for a sulfate-free, extra gentle hair cleanser? The two-in-one, non-lathering Wen Cleansing Conditioner may be for you. Upon first use, your hair may feel weighed down with product buildup -- mine did. This was because I wasn't using enough of the creamy product, so read the directions. My shoulder-length, medium-thick hair required 40 (gasp!) pumps out of the bottle. When the ideal amount of product is used, you'll get tingling, clean scalp and hair that's product-free and hydrated. It's a different way to cleanse and condition hair though, so be prepared for change.

      Try it again

      by Tigertame4 (5 reviews)
      I used this for about a month then put it away because I did not like how my hair felt. Lately, I pulled it out of the cupboard and gave it another chance. I now use about 5 pumps instead of the 25 indicated. I have just above shoulder length hair. (fine, colored, post menopausal) It holds its shape, does not look greasy a...nd is very shiny and full.

      GREAT FOR CURLY FRIZZY HAIR

      by Peekaboobers (2 reviews)
      Been staggering Lavender, Cucumber, and Almond Mint over the past 4 months for my fine curly with a frizz locks and could not be happier with the outcome. I've replaced numerous other products with just this rinse. Oily frizz-free products are GONE. Volumizers are OUTTA HERE. Sticky curl definers are HISTORY. I finally have... totally soft and volumed frizz free (or frizz reduced depending on the weather) curls with just this product. I've got I think what they call 3B hair in the curly hair websites. Fine Hebrew hair curl with a layer of frizz floating on top. And after it's slept on and needs to be afro picked due to the knots it turns into solid wavy frizz (a la Roseanna Havanadanna on the old Saturday Night Live.). I've never seen a model with my type hair on the infomercials. The closest is African American hair...which isn't really close at all other than I do have medium to large corkscrews going on with my cowlicks. The most important thing is to add one half to one full pump of the cleanser AFTER you've washed and rinsed. Wet your head thoroughly at the end of your shower and add the last pump. Comb through and LEAVE IT IN. That way you will have volumed, defined curls. Then scrunch semi dry with numerous paper towels and let air dry. I have some straight areas on top of my head, so I scrunch up a few of those areas and add some one inch butterfly clips around the crown to volumize and define the curl there even further while drying. I don't like what the diffuser does..and would rather air dry. You can wash with one scent and leave in a pump of another. So far I prefer that the Cucumber be the final leave in pump. The Almond Mint tends to be a bit more drying..but it is important to clean a bit more every few washes, anyway. But definitely don't use Almond Mint as the final leave in. Also, I recently tried my husband's Tea Tee. It is also drying with my type of hair, but I added the Cucumber as final leave in and I really did love the Gloria Stivic (All In The Family) head of bouncy curls I got from that combo. Will also start working that scent in every three or four times. One thing to note. I wash every two days. After the third wash-or about every eight days-I do need to use a regular sudsing product (I use Aveda's "Brilliant") as my scalp tends to get too oily. But I'm really happy going from suds every other day to every eight days. I used to lose quite a lot of hair when using sudsing products. Hair loss has reduced greatly with WEN. With the final pump in your wet hair, you should not need to use any further WEN after products. March 3, 2009, 12:41 am

      I'm in the Salon industry and cannot say enough good things about Wen

      by WhisperChick (2 reviews)
      This product is fantastic! My hair is slightly shorter than shoulder length, I use only 5 pumps. Rinse, rinse, rinse with warm water, then I use 3 pumps to massage into my scalp & hair. Then add another two pumps and continue to work it into my hair. It took about 4 or 5 uses, but my color treated hair has NEVER been ...more shiny, manageable and healthy. The Intensive Conditioner is also incredible. The trick on the styling products is not to use too much. The only drawback to this product line for professionals, is that it is a retail and not "professional" product and to sell it in a salon, would be cost prohibitive as far as price points are concerned. At home, this is the product I use. I cannot say enough good things about it. November 30, 2008, 9:56 am

      I like the smell of this product and the fact that it's neither greasy, nor filmy. The packaging is attractive, too. The price is not unreasonable. I highly recommend it. November 13, 2009, 5:37 am

      Mediocre Results for the Money

      by alicroo86 (16 reviews)
      I'm all for environment-friendly products, but this does not live up to the advertisments (then again, which product does?). You're supposed to use 16-25!!! pumps then scrub your head for 3 minutes then leave it sit for 5 minutes. It's a LONG process and it leaves my hair feeling/looking no different than any other shampo...o/conditioner. Not worth the money. Plus, the scent isn't great. October 28, 2009, 11:24 am

      Agree: hype

      by NancyDrew86 (5 reviews)
      I bought this after seeing the infomercial that raves about how dramatically different your hair will feel and behave. Quickly I learned that the claims are just hype. I mean, the stuff is okay, but no noticable change and certainly not worth the price. The scent also takes some getting used to and it's very difficult to ge...t all of the product out of bottle once you get near empty. April 2, 2009, 7:23 pm

      Hype

      by GolfingGrandma (3 reviews)
      I too used the product as directed. Now I must say my hair did "feel" wonderful...perhaps if I lived on an island or was a total free spirit...but I could not DO anything with my hair. It would not hold style or shape. I too went back to my old shampoo and voila I didn't need another haircut, amazingly the styl...e came back and held for the day. January 21, 2009, 7:59 am

      I don't know what the big hype is.

      by marypantalione (1 review)
      I used this just as instructed and it actually made my hair worse. I noticed the difference after using it for about a week I purposely washed with my regular shampoo and saw a big difference. My every day shampoo, Garnier, actually made my hair feel and look better. I think all this hype about the product is bull****. ...I hate to be so brutal and blunt but it's the truth. My hair did not feel clean at all. It also dried out my hair. I'm always down to try any product, but for any of you who thinks it's worth taking at chance, please save yourself the shipping and handling,twice if you decide to return it, and save yourself the time. I'm telling you I did not see any great or positive changes in my hair. November 20, 2008, 4:50 am

    • Attributes

    • Hair type: Dry
    • Manufacturer's Product Description

    • Lavender Cleansing Conditioner is enriched by the calming, soothing, relaxing and invigorating properties of lavender, which also stimulates the scalp to promote healthy hair growth. While the creamy formulation won’t weigh hair down, it is rich in moisture and works exceptionally well on dry, dehydrated hair to create body and volume. May be used as often as necessary or as a leave-in conditioner to aid in strengthening hair follicles. 16 oz. By Chaz Dean.
    • Directions

    • Rinse hair thoroughly and completely with cool water for at least 1 minute. Cleansing Conditioner should be applied in four sections: the crown of your head, the nape/back of head, ends to the left side of your hair and ends to the right side of your hair. For hair above your shoulders, use a minimum of 2 pumps. For hair down to your shoulders, use a minimum of 2-3 pumps. For hair past your shoulders use a minimum of 3-4 pumps. For hair to your mid-back use 4+ pumps. Add a splash of water to help evenly distribute through the ends and massage vigorously into scalp for 2-3 minutes. Comb through with a wide-tooth comb and clip hair up for the remainder of the shower. Leave on for at least 3-5 minutes. The longer you leave it on the better for maximum results. Rinse with cool water thoroughly for 1-2 minutes by massaging your scalp and running your fingers through to the ends. While hair is soaking wet, apply 1-3 pumps of the Cleansing Conditioner as a leave-in conditioner starting from the back of the head through to the ends. For thicker/coarser hair increase amount of pumps in order to thoroughly hydrate and cleanse the scalp and ends. If you choose to rinse and repeat, use half the amount of suggested pumps for each cleansing.
