NBR: GTKY Random Poll: What kind of Shampoo/Conditioner do u use?

I'm super bored sitting on my couch watching TV and bumping on a WILD SATURDAY NIGHT!!!! So, be on the lookout for random posts.

My answer:

I'm really boring...I usually change it up based on what I can get cheapest by using coupons at CVS. Embarrassed  I used to use Redken shampoos (All Soft in the summer and Smooth Down in the dry winters) but I've been trying to cut back expenses with baby on the way. 

Right now I am using Aussie "Sun touched shine" shampoo and conditioner.  I don't love it...but I don't hate it either.

    Same for me.  She usually stocks me up when she visits and right now it's Big Sexy.  I like it :)

    My stylist always uses this on me.  I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the smell.  Whatever one she uses is kind of minty.

  • Herbal Essences for curly hair or for long hair. I switch it up when I finish a bottle.

  • Currently I'm using {and about to run out of} Matrx Amplify shampoo & conditioner. My FAVE is Bed Head. BUT I use everything from Tresemme to Pantene, to Biolage, to Suave. Whatever suites my fancy or budget that day. lol I'm not picky at all.

  • I use Tresemme Climate Control.  I feel like I've tried all of the expensive salon ones and always end up going back to the cheaper drugstore ones.  I've never noticed a difference from the expensive ones.

    I tried Aussie and it made my hair sooo greasey after awhile.  I had  to wash my hair with Dawn dish soap to get the grease out (PSA if your hair gets greasey at all Dawn works wonders at getting the grease out!) and went back to my trusty Dove.  I love Dove and the way it makes my hair feel.  I have converted a few co-workers who also love it.

  • I used to be a faithful Aveda user, but ever since becoming a SAHM, I'm having to cut corners where I can. I typically use Treseme or Suave for volumizing or color-treated when I happen to get highlights (which is very occasional).
  • I guess I'm a bit of a shampoo snob, but my hair tends to get greasy fairly easy and it's kind of fine without much texture, and tangles easily. So I use what my stylist recommends. I just started using Farouk Royal Treatment (volume shampoo, aqua charge conditioner). It IS wonderful.

  • Pantene ProV for color treated hair.  Haven't used anything else in years!

  • I'm cheap and frankly can't tell a difference in brands.

    I have a stock pile of sauve.  Yeah, like extreme coupon kind of stock pile. 

  • Right now I'm using Tresemme for Smooth and Silky hair, but I switch it up whenever I run out.

  • I have a very dry scalp, and for a while I was going "no poo" (google it) and washing my roots with baking soda, then dipping the ends in watered-down apple cider vinegar. I would do this every 5 or 6 days, and on the in-between days I would either not get my hair wet, or soak it and run a little bit of conditioner through it. It worked pretty well for a few months, but then my hair either got dried out by highlighting it for our wedding, or from the water in the new town we moved to.

    Now I wash my hair every 3 days with Target's generic dandruff/dry scalp shampoo. It works great and actually smells really good!! Then I condition with Aussie 3 minute miracle deep conditioner. This combo works really well for me.

  • I have to use a medicated shampoo for dandruff :(

    For conditioner I use Paul Mitchell detangling conditioner (I have long, thick, curly hair).  I buy it at Target.

  • Herbel Essence for long hair shampoo and conditioner! but also like Pantene and have tried Tresemme

  • We switch between Tresemme, Nexxus, and V05. My DH works in a warehouse and every few months they send them home with goodie bags filled with these shampoos and conditioners, and all the St Ives products (body wash, lotion, scrubs). Bc of this, we haven't bought shampoo in probably 3 years.

    I have quite a few friends that do the "no poo" thing and LOVE IT.  I don't know if it would work for me or not!

  • I use Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner for colored hair.
  • I have a large bottle of the aussie shampoo and one of the conditioner in my shower. The pump-kind of dispenser.

    When they start to get low, I refill them with whatever was on sale. I usually stay with aussie/herbal essence, but will branch out if there's an awesome deal. So, since I just geet refilling them into the same bottles, I figure Im using three type of shampoo/conditioner at each shower.

    Oh, I also LOVE the ginger/orange bath and body works aromatherapy shampoo/conditioner. Smells divine. But, that sh!t is expensive ($10/bottle), so i only get it if there is a great deal and I have a coupon.

  • Suave. I never notice a difference between brands and this seems like an easy place to save money!

  • I use the morroccan oil line of products. I feel like it has made a HUGE difference in my hair's texture and look. For what it is worth, my stylist tells me that pantene is just as good as the salon lines.

  • I use thickening Bumble and Bumble. It's obnoxiously expensive, but very concentrated so a bottle lasts a long time!

    I have super oily roots and tried for a long time to find something that I could use every day. Finally found Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special - love it! Although I wanted to switch it up for the summer with a fruity scent, so I just got Herbal Essence, but I will go back to the Tea Tree once its done.

  • I have thick, coarse, naturally curly hair, which I straighten. I used to use the heaviest shampoo and conditioner I could find to smooth it out, but last year I changed my ways!

    Now I do not use any shampoo, and I use a light (silicone-free) conditioner. I love suave now, which used to be useless for me. It comes in all these great scents, and now that my hair has adjusted, it has NEVER looked better! It is called co-washing.

  • Living Proof Full Shampoo and Condtioner.  I am not as picky about anything as I am about my sulfate free hair products!

  • For shampoo right now I use a kind made by my DH's salon (he's a hairstylist) it's for colored hair and Redken all Soft conditioner.
