I'm not sure if it was the shampoo or the conditioner or both, but this dried my hair out SO bad. As a result it got pretty damaged, and it just felt like straw. I've never had a...

I bought this on a whim because it smelled nice in the bottle and once upon a time I had loved Back to Basic Beer shampoo and conditioner, so I thought I'd give it a try. My hair is wavy and...

I bought this product in the large 1L bottle along with the conditioner. It had a nice apple fragrance to it. However, the large bottle was difficult to handle and when trying to pick it up, the...

Purchased based on the reviews and I have to say that I am NOT disappointed at all. My fine, limp hair felt clean after shampooing, the scent was divine. And after blowdrying my hair felt thicker...

I love the smell of this shampoo! I got this at Big Lots, so it was very very cheap. It volumized my hair without drying it out or over-poofing it. Unfort. my big bottle has seemed to have...

Got this awhile ago at a Trade Secret holiday sale. It came with a conditioner, which I only use on occasion, because my super oily hair works quite well without it. I like the scent, but...

I call this shampoo my no-frill shampoo. I got this at Big Lots for 1.50 and I'm SO glad I did. For a "salon" shampoo, this is absolutely dirt cheap and it really delivers. It's a clear orange...

I love this as an everyday shampoo. I wouldn't say it's especially volumizing (I have really fine hair, but a lot of it), but I love the smell and it really removes build-up without adding...

I really like this shampoo. It's not a creamy shampoo, but rather a clear gel that doesn't feel like it's depositing anything on my fine hair despite the nice lather. Maybe that's why I feel...

I bought this on a lark, searching around on drugstore.com, looking for something to put me to the $49 amount so I could qualify for free shipping. I have always found the Back to Basics line to...

This is really nice shampoo. Left my hair silky, soft and shiney, plus the scent is nice as well. However, I'm battling a mild, yet annoying case of seasonal dandruff so I cant use this anymore....

I bought it for the smell - love that apple scent! Cleans well w/out weighing my hair down or drying it out. I have long fine hair & found it to be a good basic shampoo.

I don't know what the big deal is about this shampoo. Yeah, it smells nice, but it does nothing for my hair. I feel like it makes it dry and sooo flat. I blowdry upside down and use mousse but...

This is a good shampoo, smells good and cleans well. Does not seem to weigh hair down, but the conditioner does. I don't like using them together for this reason. But this shampoo is pretty good by...

A nice and gentle shampoo. I did not notice a lot of volumizing, but I appreciate this shampoo's gentle cleansing and soft scent. Does not foam much, but leaves my hair feeling clean without...

WOW! I read all the reviews here once I realized that my hair seemed to be looking worse and worse everyday. I decided that it was due to using Pantene (Brunette Expressions) all the time. I...

This smells great, volumizes better than anything I've tried, does not dry out my hair, leaves my hair soft and shiny; my only complaint is I wish the smell stuck around more after washing. I can...
