Has anyone with thick, curly or coarse hair tryed Back to Basics Sunflower Moisturizing Shampoo and Raspberry Alomond Intensive Conditioner? How about Biosilk Hydrating Shampoo and Fruit Cocktail Conditioner? These are relatively inexpensive products (compared to Phyto, Terax, Aveda, ect) and I am seriously considering trying them. I use a deep conditioner every other day (Artec Moisture Pak, Paul Mitchell Super Charged Conditioner, ect) so the conditioners don't have to be all star, but I am concerned about the general quality of the products and overall drying effects. I like really thick products and was curious about what everyone thought of them. I really appreciate the feedback-Renee

Hi,I have thick, naturaly wavy somewhat coarse hair and I have tried Back to Basics Sunflower Moisturizing Shampoo in the past. My hair tends to be on the dry side and this shampoo seems to make it drier to me.However, in all fairness, I have never been able to really use a lot of shampoos unless they are super moisturizing. Unfortunately my hair seems to gravitate towards the expensive products like Phyto and Fuerter and Aveda. :-(ARTec's Smoothing is the least expensive of the moisturizing versions that I have been able to keep my hair happy with. I also have good luck with the Nature's Gate versions. Especially the Chamomille.I was interested in trying the Biosilk but I was warned by my stylist that it would probably not work well on my hair so I have shied away from this.I would love to know what you find if you do try it.Best wishes,Karen> Has anyone with thick, curly or coarse hair tryed Back> to Basics Sunflower Moisturizing Shampoo and Raspberry> Alomond Intensive Conditioner?

I just bought the Sunflower Shampoo and Conditioner. I have semi curly hair and the conditioner made my hair so soft I had no curl. I am still using the shampoo (it is also moisturizing, almost like I don't need a conditioner, but I could never go without conditioner). I haven't noticed any real highlights to my blonde hair like the bottle says it will do, but I also haven't noticed my color fading any either. I would recommend it since your hair is thick (mine is fairly fine).> Has anyone with thick, curly or coarse hair tryed Back> to Basics Sunflower Moisturizing Shampoo and Raspberry> Alomond Intensive Conditioner?
