WEN Cucumber Aloe Cleansing Conditioner 16 oz

Firstly, let me tell you that I love this product. It makes my straight hair shiny and reduces frizzies, but the whole you-can-go-longer-without-getting-greasy-headed thing never happened for me. I still have to shower daily, which is why I became obsessed with the amount of product used and the cost per shower...

So using the minimum guidelines for each dose, you'll use about 1oz per shower. At the prices offered here, that's about $2/shower. I think I make decent money, but I can't live with myself for spending that on my hair each day. It's just crazy. I would stand there lathering thinking "I want my two dollars!!".

In protest, I went back to the my old shampoo and immediately regretted it. Even my husband noticed that my hair didn't look as good, and that says something since he's not really the type to notice, well, anything.

So... enter Sally's Beauty Supply, my rescuer. They just came out with a self-branded version of this product for sale in their stores and on their website which is fantastic. It's about half the price, and I don't know if it's purely psychological, but I love it. My hair looks even better than with the Wen product. It's awesome. I'm serious.

Best yet, Sally's sells little single-use packets if you're not ready to commit. You could grab a couple of those and give it a go before you totally opt out of the real thing. (Of course, for $10 you could just buy the whole bottle... Compared to the Wen spend, that's small potatoes!)

I gave this product a glowing review right after purchase. I wasn't able to finish the bottle, though. It did not get rid of the oil in my hair and it looked stringy and limp after about a week of use. I believe I was using the product correctly. You take a chance on this stuff. Buyer beware.

I have long, virgin, baby fine hair. It gets dry in the winter and has no body. I tried Wen and liked the way my hair looked for the first hour. After that it just started looking greasy and limp. I even asked my two best friends how my hair looked & they said it looked like I hadn't washed it that day. However, I loved how the ends of my hair looked. I had not realized how dry they were until I used Wen. So now I use my regular shampoo & only use a small amount of Wen on the ends of my hair as conditioner.

I have heard so much about WEN that I had to buy it. I followed the directions perfectly '30-40 pumps, massage in for a minute, let stand 3-5 minutes, rinse thoroughly' and when I got out my hair had waxy build up. I was ticked I mean wasn't the whole point of this not to have waxy build up? To have volume? I tried twice more just to see if I had messed up, but no each time my hair came out with grease and wax. Finally I googled 'WEN instructions' and it came up with a video on YouTube.com Here's the proper way that should be on the bottle.

1. rinse hair thoroughly, like for a few minutes.

2. 5-10 pumps (more if you need) and put on the top part of your hair, massage in

3. 5-10 pumps under your hair massage in

4. 5-10 pumps on the left side

5. 5-10 pumps on the right side

6. any extra pumps on the bottom or top, just fill in

7. Slightly tilt your head in the water until it gets a little wet

8. massage in your scalp for a minute, this should be easier because of the water you added

9. comb through

10. clip it up and let stay for a solid 3-5 minutes

11. rise thoroughly making sure you don't feel anything in your hair

optional

12. before you get out use a pump or so to run though the ends of your hair like leave in conditioner

Do you see how detailed that is? That's what should be on the back of the bottle because I can tell you now I only wash my hair with WEN and it is not greasy, no waxy build up and my hair looks really healthy. I have fine blonde hair that I dye so it is slightly damaged, but I have a ton of it so it can be a pain to get the shampoo out from under the layers, I really really like the Cucumber Aloe and just bought a bigger bottle, my hair is mid back and I find I really only need 5-7 pumps per section so don't use the 40 plus pumps, saves the product and me money.

Wen absolutely RUINED my hair. I have fine, formerly curly hair. When I first started using Wen, my hair definitely felt smoother, but it was flat unless I blew it dry every day. Gradually, Wen relaxed out all my natural curls. Soon after, I noticed short, broken off hairs near the front of my scalp, where I had had to scrub so hard to try and get my hair clean with the stuff. I stopped using Wen, only to realize that my curls were permanently relaxed out. Now the broken pieces are growing back curly while the end are still flat and gross. I'd cut it all off, but I'm getting married in two months and need the length. I can't BELIEVE I have to get married like this. Every day is a horrible hair day now. It's so embarrassing. So, I would say, if anyone is sick of their curls, buy Wen, but use a gentle shampoo first to get your hair clean. Then use Wen as an overall conditioner. Your hair will be smooth, flat and curl-free in no time. Good luck.
