worst shampoos?

Head and shoulders is really, really bad for your hair.A woman I know was losing her hair little by little becausethis stuff stripped her scalp so much.I do agree, Pantene is very bad, but people use it becausemaybe some don't care what it does, as long as it looks good.I don't know.

Hi Jen,Absolutely. Have her lather on the Prell and then let it sit on her hair for 10 minutes and then rinse out. If she does that for a couple of days her color will fade right away. Unfortunately it is not great for the hair for extended use, but for a few days to fade color it should work great.Many hairstylists know this trick.The sad thing is that Prell is still sold in the grocery stores. It is not doing as well as it used to because of all the newer products that are better for the hair. But it is still on the shelves. I saw some just last week.Best wishes,Karen> That's really interesting about Prell.

I have tried lots of yucky shampoos over the years, but I think one of them wins out by far above all others. I think the worst shampoo I've ever used has to be "Thicker, Fuller Hair". It comes in a dark green bottle, smells medicinal & couldn't leave your hair feeling any worse than if you'd use a bar of Lava soap on it. I couldn't even get a comb thru mine & the static it created was unbelievable. Same hold true for their thickening lotion. Yuk! ~Kelly F.

Hello Nancy.I have tried many shampoos and conditioners. I have naturally oily hair and many are just not as effective as I would like them to be. For me personally, the worst shampoo and conditioner that I ever tried was Vibrance, from the grocery store. This shampoo dried my hair out so much that it felt like straw and had many tangles. I've never had this problem with any other shampoo. Usually they don't remove enough oil.Teresa

Hi Nancy...Great question. One problem in answering this is that what works great for some people works not so great for others. I know that some people on this board really have great luck with Abba and for me it was terrible. I tried the entire line too because a stylist wrote me privately and told me that I should try a different type of Abba. Well I did and NOPE. No go.Other people think that Aura is great and it also did not do anything for my hair. In fact, it made it feel very dry.I think the worst shampoo on the grocery store shelves is Prell which some stylists use to strip color off the hair. So I would vote for Prell as the worst (in my opinion) of the grocery store genre. I would say that for me personally Abba was the worst salon style shampoo and conditioner. But again...that was on my hair.Of course my favorites are ARTec anything, Aveda, KMS, Phytologie, Fuerter and Oasis 2001 which is the WW Beauty Store custom product line.I also like Nature's Gate from the health food store shelves. I would also use Suave in a pinch.I hope everyone contributes their thoughts. This is an interesting question.Best wishes,Karen> I just wanted to know what people think are the worst> shampoos and conditioners, both salon and nonsalon> brands.
