"I use a clarifying shampoo to remove all the [...] oil and things, and then [...] when I play the hair mask, it apparently works better. [...] This does a good job with that."

"The ordinary shampoo, the Sulfate 4% Cleanser for Body and Hair, isn't going to give you the experience you may be seeking if you like highly scented shampoos and lots of lathering, [...] it doesn't really lather too much. But it is effective at leaving the hair and scalp clean, and I don't get the residue with this that I've gotten with a lot of other shampoos. It's very good, and I love the packaging, this newer rectangle bottle style. You can also use it as a body wash."

HAIR CARE PRODUCTS I USED UP 🗑 DERMATOLOGIST @DrDrayzday

"There's no lather and it's [...] hard to believe it's actually cleansing, but it does do a good job, it's a very gentle shampoo. I actually ended up really liking these [...] a lot, they're pretty affordable. [...] For me personally I would not use this as a daily shampoo because it's very mild, and I found that if I used it on a daily basis my hair started looking like it had a little bit of buildup, it looked a little dull. But it's a great option to use a couple of times a week."

"I was skeptical about it because I didn't enjoy the experience, but [...] every time I use this shampoo my hair is super manageable, very glossy, there's no frizz, it doesn't leave a [...] buildup. [...] It is a very good shampoo, one you can use on a daily basis, it's wonderful if you've got brittle hair that's prone to breakage, or curly hair, any hair type. [...] You can also use it as a body wash. Eight dollars."

"This is basically the simplest shampoo that you could ask for, and it's basic af. It has sodium laureth sulfate, which [...] they claim is a more gentle type of sulfate that doesn't overly strip the way other sulfates do, but this is honestly the exact same sulfate marketing that we've heard from so many other companies for so long. At eight dollars [...] it's not horrible, and I do appreciate that it's fragrance free."

"This turned out to be really good for my scalp, one of the better tolerated shampoos I've used. [...] There isn't any fragrance in this, and I personally like a bit of fragrance in my hair products, but I know a lot of people want or need to avoid it. It's actually pretty hard to find fragrance-free hair products, so I'm really happy to see this available as an option."
