Raw Shea Butter Moisture Retention Shampoo

My main factor in purchasing this product is that it is sulfate free-- my hair and sulfates are not on good terms. It also leaves off lots of other products that can irritate your skin, it's cruelty free, and fair trade. And it's a great product to boot. This is one of my favorite sulfate free shampoos and it is so gentle on my hair. As a side note: If you are trying a sulfate free shampoo for the...read more first time, it probably won't feel as clean as with regular shampoo, but that is your hair adjusting to a gentle shampoo rather than one with harsh cleansing agents (you'll notice less foaming with sulfate free shampoos). Stick with it and you'll fall in love. Any way, this cleans very well without stripping hair of moisture (which makes it a very good shampoo for dyed and otherwise chemically treated hair). It works very well with the leave-in conditioners.

Super Natural and Moisturizing,

So I had no idea this product was intended for ethnic hair. I had read glowing reviews about it online and went to target to buy a bottle and it was in the ethnic hair section. Considering i have super straight, fine hair, you would think this would've turned me off. But no. I loved that this product had an all natural ingredient list, that it's cruelty free and eco friendly. Plus, my ends were so...read more damaged and dry i was willing to try anything before having to cut my locks off. Purchasing this with it's conditioning partner was the best shampoo purchase i've ever made outside of a department store! This is truly the most moisturizing shampoo i've ever used. There are two drawbacks for me: one, the scent is very strong and perfumey, not my favorite. and two, it doesn't lather or spread very well which leads to more product use to cover my scalp. After using the matching conditioner, my hair felt kinda weighted down and not very clean, but i was amazed after i blow-dried! My hair was perfectly shiny and smooth, no fly aways and i had amazing volume, with no other products. (I guess that "clean" feeling i got from other types of shamp+cond isn't what my hair really needs?) And at $10 a bottle at Target, this is my new HG hair combo. I'm thinking i might be trying more products in the ethnic hair section now. :)

Shea Moisture you saved my Hair!!!

Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Moisture Retention Shampoo you saved my life! I cut off all my hair back in 2010 in an effort of getting rid of harsh chemical procedures and damaged hair and to restore my self esteem. I hated my hair for while before doing the big chop. Afterwards everything was great! I had short hair an easy routine and spent less money on styling and products. Eventually some of ...read morethe “natural” things I was using on my hair started to contribute to my adult acne breakouts and there goes a piece of my self esteem again. Eventually after spending countless dollars on products and hours at the salon I tried to find a less expensive alternative. I started to grow my hair out and low and behold more damage to the pockets on the expensive natural products that worked. Right around May of this year a friend recommended that I try Shea moisture products from Target. So I took myself and my hair to good old Target to see what these products were about. I read the reviews here first of course but I was still a little concerned that this would not give me the results I was hoping for. I have really curly hair that gets really tight, brittle and dry if it is not moisturized properly. So the first week I tried the product my hair was very happy with me. I then started using it in conjunction with other products from the line and they work best as a team I strongly recommend this product especially for curly hair. It not only moisturizes but there isn’t anything in it that triggers negative reactions to my skin. Along with this I recommend the conditioner and styling pudding as well. Although the shampoo is good on it’s on the other prodcucts add to the effectiveness of the shampoo.
