 I Love this Product! Never Switching Back to Shampoo October 11, 2008
Zyris De'Lat
I have to admit I saw this product one evening on an infomercial. It intrigued me, but like any infomercial I was skeptical so I read many many reviews to see how well a cleansing conditioner worked. I found mixed reviews. I hate buying straight from infomercial sites, because 9/10 times there is usually an automatic renewal shipping which I hate (and WEN does). So I was thrilled when I found this on Amazon, like everything else I can find on amazon. I am a die hard amazon fan and devoted customer. :)
Now on to the actual product review. It took a little getting used to and I did see improved results after about a good month of use. Meaning it took that long to adjust to how much I should use, technique, etc. I was a die hard Burt's Bees shampoo / conditioner fan before I switched over. I have finer hair that never really could get enough moisture from conditioners. The ends would always feel dry, no matter how often I go for trims. My hair would also snag and tangle easily also, as well as being really really frizzy. This cleansing conditioner calmed my hair and really moisturized it. It doesn't feel heavy, doesn't look greasy, and I have no more fly away hairs.
My routine. To give an idea of how much I use. This is according to the 32 oz tall bottle (I found one pump from the tall bottle is about equal to 2 pumps from the small bottle - if you are pumping slow). It is true, more is better. I have medium to fine hair that comes to the bottom of my bra strap in the middle of my back. I will wet down my hair thoroughly and apply 5-7 full slow pumps to the top of my head to start out. I will then apply 3-5 slow pumps to the sides of my head by my temples, concentrating by my ear (which tends to be a grease spot for me if I do not clean there well enough). I then apply about 10 slow pumps to the ends of the hair, working up to my scalp. I will then pile my hair on top of my head and message while adding 2-3 pumps to the pile and work to the back of my head and nape of my neck. I will then cup my hands to catch some water and splash it to the top of my head. It may sound a bit ridiculous, but it does really help with promoting the lather (it doesn't foam though). I then let my hair down and take a fine tooth comb and comb through my hair once to remove tangles and dead loose hair (starting at the ends and working my way up). I will then apply 2-3 more pumps, quickly message, and wind my hair up and clip it. I leave my hair soak while I wash my body, face, shave, etc. I then rinse my hair thoroughly. This is so important - rinsing thoroughly.
The directions do recommend to give a 1-2 pump and message into the ends after showering as a leave in conditioner. I do not leave any in. I found that did make my hair look a bit greasy afterwords. I would probably do that before swimming though, haven't tried it yet though.
Once I exit the shower with thoroughly rinsed hair. I will blot my hair dry with a towel, wet my hands, then apply two pumps of the WEN Sweet almond mint styling creme, concentrating at the ends and length of the hair. I stay away from my temples, but what ever is left on my hands I will then run through the top of my head. I do not blow dry my hair, I leave it dry naturally.
I think the most important thing that helps eliminate my fly aways is I do not comb or brush my hair when it is wet anymore (except while showering with the cleansing conditioner in it). I just use my fingers until my hair is completely air dried, for my hair does not tangle anymore after using this cleansing conditioner. I have noticed my hair is slowly becoming more wavy with body and I am finding less and less hair left in the drain of the shower.
I hope this reviewed helped and is a bit insightful.

This stuff is fabulous! The ends of my hair aren't brittle and crunchy anymore and my hair is always clean and soft. It's not weighed down or greasy and smells pretty good. Try it. You'll like it.

When I washed my hair everyday with shampoo (no matter what brand and even when advertized as "moisturizing") it left my hair dry and frizzy. And if I didn't wash every day I could only go maybe two-three days at most-just rinsing and conditioning before it was too dirty and limp to stand. WEN cleansing conditioner does what its name says. It does clean the hair down to the scalp (I'm not sure how?!) and leaves it with lift and body, and smoothes down the frizzies. I was skeptical that it would leave the hair oily and limp, but it doesn't.
Unfortunately it is much more expensive than an equal amount of shampoo - which I would call its only major drawback.

This product is great. I have naturally curly and highlighted hair, which means that it also tends to be quite dry. I have used it for a month now and have decided to let my hair grow out a little because it is so much easier to work with. So the last time I went to my hairdresser for highlights, I said just to trim off the ends because I am letting it grow. She said I could skip a trim this month, because there weren't any split ends. This is a first.
I also use the "sweet almond mint body, bath and hair oil" after towel drying. Probably about 12 small drops. It makes my hair so soft. Just don't put too much on. Experiment, but I guarantee if you have dry hair, using the oil, mainly on the ends will cure it!

I tried a small bottle of this product after hearing so much about it and loved it. So I forked out the big bucks for a giant size bottle and 1/4 of the way into it it seems to be losing its magic. The instructions say the longer you use it the better the results, but that's not happening for me. Also a big thumbs down for the company behind the product. I was so excited about the product at first that I told EVERYONE about it. I emailed the company a couple of times asking if they had some kind of referal program (since I own a womens shoe store, meet lots of women every week and know that referal business is what drives success) but never got a reply one way or the other. Oh well WEN, you're a falling star!
