I am afraid to Bmail you because the worm problem has not been fixed yet on my computer and I am afraid I would send it to you.

I was looking at the bottle of Alterna shampoo that the rave about being sooo good. I forgot the name, but it cost $100 a bottle, and thats my cost.

Anyway, Would you believe it contains Amonium Lauryl Sulfate???? You would think if they can get $100 a bottle for shampoo they would at least put the good stuff in there. I had always heard that the reason they use that is because it is cheaper. But it this case, "Gimme a break"

Have you heard of this shampoo? It has white truffles in it.

Hi Guy's, I've used the white truffle, it's nice, but worth the money? NO. I think some of the other ingredients are pretty exclusive, but it's really nothing special.

I just read a blerp in Modern Salon Magazine about an exclusive shampoo & conditioner retailing for $1200....of course I can't remember the name of it. lol

WHITE TRUFFLES?!?!? You have GOT to be kidding me Lilibeach. And $1200 for something you put on your head and rinse off? That is truly incredible Sophie. Mindblowing, actually, when you consider how many trips to the grocery store that would cover. It kind of reminds me of my first outing to Rodeo Drive in Hollywood (not that I've ever *bought* anything there) and found a $1,300 white tank top at Armani. Whoa.

Overpriced products aside, it's nice to talk to you both again

I have read about this, looked at their website and was actually going to check the salons that carried it but didn't go for it. Thank goodness I didn't go and saved my jaw from falling on the floor. LOL. I asked my regular beauty supply store about it and she said she has not heard of this brand. Too much for a shampoo. Redken ALL SOFT rules.

LOL thanks Lyris... I wish though I can get my hair to be that sleek (just like the one on your pic).

I could never get the top of my head to be flat and the sides are always flyffy even after using a hair straightener! I just have too much hair!

It is indeed--personally I'd never *dream* of posting an unaltered photo to the web!
