A cosmetologist's dream!5
I LOVE the pureology hydrate line. I have been using this personally and selling this to my clients for the past two years, and it is my favorite for most people. The only people I don't recommend this for, are those with ultra healthy, fine hair, as it can weigh your hair down if your hair is too fine.

There are no sulfates, which is HUGE. That means, that it is super gentle, and will not allow your color to fade. If your color does fade while using this, then your hair is too porous and you might consider using a protein treatment every shampoo, for about a week prior to your next coloring. I suggest tried and true, CAT Protein by Redken. Just spray it on, work it around, and allow to sit while you shave your legs, or just relax. It will feel in all of the hole that have been "eaten" out of your hair by bleach, or damage. Finally, continue using pureology and your hair will feel great!

I recommend this for all of my clients with the following hair types:

Naturally Curly
wavy
Permed (please tell me that there are not very many of you out there that still perm)
Highlighted
Colored
Dry
Brittle
Environmentally damaged
Heat damaged
Thick
Coarse
dull

Please don't use very much, as it is extremely concentrated. Put a quarter size dollop (or less) in your palm, and emulsify it in your hands, then gently pat it down the top layer of your wet hair. Then start to massage it in, and within a minute, it will start to "melt" through your hair, and soften it. If you have trouble getting it out of the bottle, because it is so thick and concentrated, tip it upside down and tap the bottle against the palm of your hand, and it will all drop to the top, so that you can squeeze it out. Then when you are almost finished with your bottle, add a bit of water to it, and shake it real good, you will then be able to utilize every bit of the product!

Enjoy the invigorating scent! I do have a few clients that don't love the smell of the menthols at first, but am told that it grows on them in time. I also love how it makes my body tingle from the menthols as it rinses from my hair.

This is a must buy for almost all!

WILL fix your dry, color-treated hair!5
My HG, hands down. I have tons of fine hair, so it's very thick but also fragile. I have to use a heavy duty Elchim dryer if I want my hair to dry in less than an hour, so it gets a lot of heat. It is also color treated, so it can be very dry and hold lots of static. After a recent phase of strightening it every day, my poor hair was fried! And even with all this abuse, the Pureology conditioner still manages to make my hair look healthy and shiny. Unlike other conditioners, it doesn't weigh my hair down, nor does it make it look dull. I love the minty fragrance (it contains peppermint oil) as it makes my hair smell fresh and clean for days. So okay, it IS expensive, but you don't need to use very much of it to obtain amazing results. If you have damaged/frizzy/thick hair, give Pureology a whirl -- it really works!

Love the product4
Does a great job when used with shampoo. Leaves no residue and protects color.

Customer Reviews

I have *never* loved a shampoo this much - nor been willing to SPEND this much!5
I'll admit it: what first sold me on Pureology products was the scent. I was having my hair styled, and the stylist used the product to wash my hair. It just smelled so clean and fresh that I was knocked over by sheer bliss! Then came the tingling, cooling, refreshing sensation spreading over my scalp. When my hair was finished being washed, it... well... felt CLEAN. It's a tough thing to describe, this feeling of "clean" because I had never really felt as though my hair was "unclean" after having washed it with other products, however, this was much different. My hair felt lighter and softer - even while it was still wet!

Naturally, because I was in a salon, I expected the shampoo to be pricey - and I wasn't at all wrong! But I felt like splurging, so I bought first the 10oz bottle, which was used by two people and still managed to last for almost 6 months. Why? Well because this shampoo is so concentrated that you honestly need to only use an amount about the size of a nickel - and that's for long hair!

The conditioner didn't disappoint one iota, either. The same fresh feeling and clean scent dazzled me over that first six months and I felt my anxiety rise as the amount in the bottle became less and less.

Fortunately, our next purchase of this shampoo was at an outlet store, so we got some pretty impressive savings on the BIG bottle - the 33.8oz as shown here, I believe. That has lasted us well over a year, again with two people using it. We're starting to run out, but we've still got enough to probably last another month or so.

Now to kind of put this into a frame of reference... I am kind of a cheapskate. (If by "kind of" you mean "definitely".) I've used Suave salon knock-off products because they fit in my target price-range. I've refused to buy Pantene in the past because it was too expensive. For me to shell out this kind of money on shampoo is unheard-of, and if my poor mother only knew, she'd probably faint.

That said... I firmly believe it's worth every single penny.

My hair has never been more manageable or healthy. I tend to have what I refer to as "NASCAR hair" - meaning it gets bumps and ridges instead of any actual curl, and then those bumps and ridges separate out into entirely unattractive frizz-tastic flyaway split ends and generally projects this messy halo effect. With Pureology, I look infinitely more poised, polished, and presentable - no small feat!

As an added bonus, I discovered in the shower one day that these products are vegan *and* not tested on animals! (Come on, you know you read in the shower too - I'm not a weirdo...)

If you're at all reluctant about buying this shampoo, see if you can get your hands on some samples from somewhere. You're just not going to believe how awesome this stuff is until you use it. And you *should* use it.

Love this stuff!5
First product that I've used that works consistently on my unruly hair. My hair is wavy and more frizzy than curly. I've tried just about every product out there and they usually work for a time or two and then don't work anymore. This has worked consistently for about 2 months now, and I don't even want to use anything else. Highly recommend this for people with trouble hair.

Excellent Shampoo5
I bought this as a gift for my daughter-in-law. She loves it. It is a little pricey, so it was part of her Christmas. She has gorgeous hair, so I'm not sure how much difference it makes in the way her hair looks, but I don't have naturally beautiful hair, and it even made mine look better!

It really cleans your hairs4
It's shampoo. What am I supposed to say here. I did think it was going to be the peppermint scented and didnt realize that there were so many different kinds made by AC but it still does what shampoo is supposed to. If you want to stay clean and keep people at work from making fun of the stinky guy this will do the trick.

Better than Pomade!4
I've used American Crew's Pomade before and decided to try Fiber for a change. It holds my hair in place better, isn't shiny like the pomade, and smells better too. Slight issue with size of product (I received a 3 oz jar instead of 3.53 oz), but the folks at YourBestHairDay did an excellent job of responding quickly to my problem and providing an effective and timely remedy.

Crew Fiber5
Product was as advertised. Sent well packaged shipped and recieved within 3 days of ordering.

Customer Reviews

cool tingle5
This stuff is great. I love the way it makes my scalp tingle. I don't know if the tingling feeling means that it is helping my scalp or not but it sure does feel good! I have short hair and only need to use a small amount to make my hair feel great and look great. Try it, you will not be disappointed.

Good for oily hair5
This is a good conditioner for my oily hair. I am keeping my hair long so this helps.

Great conditioner5
Great conditioner. Awesome service from Amazon. The conditioner was leaking so I emailed Amazon and they overnighted a new one for free.
