Summary: Has really improved the condition of my hair
Comment: I've been using WEN cleansing conditioner (the cucumber aloe variety) for about 5 months now. I don't use it exactly the way the instructions suggest. I "wash" my hair every day but use regular shampoo probably once or twice a week. (I normally add a couple squirts of the WEN to my dollop of shampoo.) The other days I use WEN cleansing conditioner as my shampoo, but I DO always follow-up with a color-preserving (John Frieda) conditioner afterwards. The WEN instructions suggest that you apply a small (large pea-sized) amount to soaking wet hair as a leave-in conditioner, and I do that. Also, I've made a "tonic" that is a mixture of WEN, almond oil, water, and a volumizing gel, and occasionally I'll spritz that all over my towel-dried hair before styling. The overall condition of my hair has improved tremendously in the last five months since I started using WEN. I'm 37 and my hair is fine and straight and has a tendency to dry out quickly. I don't have thin hair, but I also don't have a LOT of hair. (I have a "medium" head of hair, my stylist always says.) The bottom three or four inches of my hair were always dry, while my scalp can quickly become oily. (I can't go for longer than 24 hours without washing my hair or it looks very greasy.) After using WEN for the past 5 months or so, my hair feels soft and silky and THICKER, and it has a ton of body. This WEN is expensive stuff, which is part of the reason why I use it more creatively than that instructions suggest, but I really like the results and plan to keep using it. (And I haven't noticed any of the hair-loss issues others report. I definitely shed, but not an unusual or worrisome amount.)

Summary: Great Product!
Comment: The price is a bit out of my haircare budget, but I am very happy with the WEN conditioning shampoo. If it were a little more affordable I would definitely keep using it.

Summary: Great Hair - Great Product!
Comment: I first tried the Sweet Almond Mint conditioning shampoo based on the infomercial. I was very happy with that, however the Chaz Dean "system" was pricey and I always received the styling cream which I never used. So I started surfing and found that I could get just the shampoo AND there were different "flavors"! I bought the Cucumber Aloe to try out, since my scalp gets oily, but the rest of my straight, fine hair gets dry. I beleive I like the Cucumber Aloe even BETTER than the Sweet Almond Mint!
Make sure you use enough of the product - I have shoulder length hair and use about 10 pumps. It won't lather like conventional shampoo. It WILL leave your hair shiney and extremely healthy looking. No longer am I being told by any stylist that I need a special conditioner to take care of my dry hair. THIS STUFF WORKS!

Summary: Takes a bit of tweaking ...
Comment: I've been using Wen cleaning conditioner for about 2 weeks, alternating between the Sweet Almond Mint and the Lavender. My hair is long and baby fine and my scalp is oily enough that I've always had to shampoo every day. The first week using Wen my hair looked amazing. It was supersoft and shiny. However about 4 days ago, my hair started looking and feeling oily at the scalp immediately after cleansing. I was so disappointed but after reading the reviews, I decided to try the Cucumber Aloe. I just received my bottle today and I immediately showered and cleansed my hair. I'm thrilled to report that my hair once again looks great--no oil slick on my scalp. I really hope that the Cucumber Aloe will continue to keep my hair looking beautiful and not oily. Just be aware that the different scents each have different ingredients and you may have to try a few before you find the one that works for you.

Summary: Good product: Bad smell
Comment: While the product is good the Cucumber Aloe has the WORST smell ever! It is like Vic's Vapor Rub but worse. I have super, super fine hair and the best product is the Sweet Almond Mint. It's fantastic. It really made my dry hair soft without weighing it down. I've tried to go back to regular shampoo and conditioner and this makes my hair so much better. Just steer away from Cucumber Aloe it smells HORRIBLE. My boyfriend won't even let me have it in the shower. Who wants a product that drives the boys away? Try any other smell. It is a good product. The company needs to rework this Cucumber Aloe scent. Yuck!
