I use sulfate free shampoos, and I need just the right balance of getting my hair clean without stripping it. Shampoos with sulfates strip natural oils from our hair and cause our scalp to overcompensate and make oil quicker. It's especially important for me because I wash my hair every other day because it's better for it. If I use sulfate shampoos, my hair is an oil slick by day 2. I have fine hair but I have a lot of it, and it gets weighed down easily. My bangs tend to get greasy pretty quickly too. This product is pretty close to the balance I need. While not incredibly moisturizing, it still does weigh my hair down a little more than I like, and my roots also get greasy a bit more quickly than I would like. It's not terrible though, and I could probably save a bit of money if I stick with this stuff. I don't think it saves any time because pumping it out isn't quick, and it takes a while to work into a "low lather" and takes a while to rinse. Overall this product is pretty good, but not phenomenal.

I don't know if I just have bad colors or what, but I have like 3 of these and they chip like nobody's business from the word go. I love the colors and the price, but unfortunately I can't say anything good about the quality.

The old formulation of this had parabens in it, which is a big no-no for a company that touts itself as being organic. It worked well and felt nice though. But the new formulation I'm just not a fan of either. The texture is almost watery now, it doesn't feel moisturizing and doesn't give a very smooth shave, and leaves a really squeaky clean feeling when you rinse it off. I don't feel like my skin has been conditioned at all. I guess there's something to be said for toxic ingredients sometimes...

I was looking for a more gentle body wash, and someone recommended this one. I'm not really big on any of the scents, but I got the apricot one because I liked it the best of all of them. It lathers well, although I don't think it's all that much more gentle than conventional body washes. It doesn't leave me feeling dried out though. But $10 got me that HUGE bottle, so the price is right. It's now almost a year later, I use other stuff too sometimes, but I still have some left.

This stuff is amazing. It was recommended by our allergist for my baby's eczema, and it's fantastic. Super thick and creamy, and it keeps her skin feeling moisturized all the way until her next bath.

I really like this lotion, it works to get me moisturized after the shower and absorbs well, which isn't always a guarantee with more organic type body lotions. It's not super heavy or creamy, but it does the job. I also really like the fragrance, it smells a lot like the expensive trendy hemp lotion for about half the price, with safer ingredients too.

Wow, after seeing everyone else's reviews, mine is going to just trash this product, but here goes. I was really excited to use this, I have a toddler and a newborn so having a block of time to dye my hair happens like never. The part that takes the longest for me is the application, so I like that this was way faster than other dyes. I usually use organic, sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, so far so good. But I ran out and had to use my sulfate stuff, which oddly enough is by John Frieda, and after 2 shampoos I couldn't even tell I had ever dyed my hair. Not using this stuff again.

I dig this shampoo...it gets my hair clean without stripping it or weighing it down, and the scent is to die for. I would probably drink it if shampoo weren't totally dangerous to drink. It works awesome with the matching conditoner too, and keeps my hair shiny and soft.

I really love natural shampoos, ideally these days I go with sulfate-free organic ones because then I can get away with shampooing less frequently. This shampoo cleans really well, but it does have SLS in it, which I looked when I was at the store but didn't see until later after I tried it out and was surprised by the lather. So I was a little bummed by that. It gets my hair a little more squeaky-clean than I would like for a natural shampoo to do. The fragrance is also a little too masculine for me, and overall it's a little too much like a conventional shampoo for my tastes.

This conditioner is alright and has just basic results. After using, my hair looks just clean and a little blah, I wish it were shinier. The color and texture freaked me out a little at first, and I find that I need to use a little more to cover all my hair than with other conditioners. It's really just mediocre for me, and the fragrance is a little strange too, a little too manly for my tastes.
