[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice shampoo. It washed my hair well, lathered decent. My hair looked shiny afterwards and it doesnt seem too harsh on coloured hair. Smells nice ans hair is soft but I need to try it with the conditioner

Scalp feel clean and fresh
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Influenster for sending me this product for free. Used this product for two weeks now, after colouring my hair. Have seen the difference as compared to other shampoos. Colour hasn’t faded, haven’t seen a single white hair popping out. Hair feels smooth and manageable. Doesn’t leave any residue, product get easily washed, removing impurities from hair and scalp. Restores volume and bounce. Replenishes lost hydration while preventing hair dryness. It relieves scalp itching, irritation and dryness. Scalp feels fresh. Would definitely recommend it for coloured hair.

Good ingredients
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you for giving me the opportunity to try this product. I’ve been using it for two weeks now, and it really helped to protect my hair colour and the best thing I’d left my hair clean and fresh after wash. The hair looked shiny and smooth. Definitely recommended to people who dye their hair.

Great to slow fading
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Normally my hair would have faded A LOT MORE by now, however I have found using this shampoo has made the colour last a lot longer - yes it doesn’t stop the fade completely but it sure helps. The fresh smell also leaves my hair smelling amazing and super clean. It lathers super well also.

Great performance
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great shampoo with a lovely fresh scent. I have light blond coloured hair and I found this shampoo performing great, my hair after using ( I have used it by now multiple times) it felt soft and bouncy, they looked "alived" again with nice shine.
Great shampoo and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Really nice shampoo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve really been enjoying using this shampoo recently. It smells beautiful and leaves my hair feeling really clean and soft. I love the packaging as it’s really bright and out there. My hair feels so strong after using this shampoo for a few weeks and I so happy with how my hair looks and feels. I will definitely buy again.
