    This is a good everyday shampoo. I can't say how much moisture there is since I already have a greasy scalp but my hair still feels clean and soft afterwards. This shampoo has no silicones and the...

    After trying Body shop’s Banana shower cream and absolutely loving it, I thought I’d experiment with their Banana scented Shampoo and Conditioner! What a treat, I just love that fresh banana scent,...

    Meh. This is not a horrible product. It does the job, my hair does feel clean after using it. I don't think it does anything to moisturize my dry hair as it promises but I haven't really expected...

    I bought this (stupidly) assuming it was sulfate free since the accompanying conditioner is silicone free, and in my head it makes sense that those two things go hand in hand. It's not sulfate...

    I love this shampoo, the smell is slightly banana, not too strong, but a delicious scent. I color my hair, and this shampoo does not strip the color, but makes my hair manageable. I have thick...

    This product works fine with my dry hair and I loved it when I just bought it. After a month of using it (more or less) I got really tired of the smell.

    I have short, fine-but-thick color-treated hair. This is a great shampoo for me because I don't want any silicones or "extra conditioners" as I don't need them. Love the scent and EXPECIALLY...

    This shampoo is too drying. I bought it by accident as it looks the same as the conditioner (which I adore). It makes the hair so dry and frizzy. That in the end, I use it for weekly deep...

    I bought this on sale at Christmas time due to the rave reviews by a youtuber. I'm glad I only paid $4 for this because it really is just a normal shampoo. It doesn't make my hair look or feel...

    bought this in one of their sales. if i had given more money to this shampoo i'd feel sad, did nothing more than an average shampoo. smell is nice but it does not last long on your hair.

    Okay first off, the smell is incredible. Something about the smell seems to promise that it will make your hair incredibly soft and silky. I wish it made my hair feel as nice as it smelled. Nothing...

    I think the number one reason that I (and others) bought this is because of the smell. It's divine and very soothing and I wish it was edible! I was pleasantly surprised that it did more than just...
