I bought this for two reasons: my scalp has been getting zits for the last few months, and my hair is naturally very greasy after one day. I was hoping mostly to reduce the amount of zits I was getting, which were maybe three or four a week and were more painful than bothersome. I figured the clay was something that would help remove dirt and help dry out the scalp a bit or at least balance the oil production.

The first day I used this shampoo and conditioner, I thought my hair felt very dry and very much like it had a powdery residue as if I had used a bit of dry shampoo on it. Overall, it felt dry and was harder to comb through than normal. I wasn't happy but I continued. The second day, this feeling was reduced, and by the end of the week I have not noticed a residue on the hair anymore - it feels much softer. I don't know whether it just takes a bit of getting used to, but it seems that my hair has learned to work with it. I am still hesitant to go without washing my hair, only because I have had to work every day and want it to be presentable. Today was the first day I did not wash it and I did feel that there was a slight reduction in the greasy-ness of my hair. I still wore my hair up and used a pinch of powder dry shampoo at the roots, but overall it was MUCH better looking than usual. It wasn't stringy and the dry shampoo actually felt like it did something, which doesn't happen when I use regular shampoo and skip a wash.

I haven't noticed any NEW zits on my scalp in the last week, but I will give it more time for hormone fluctuations to see if this works. I like the smell, it is clean and not overpowering, it reminds me of something you might get at a hotel. I am prone to tossing out shampoos after a couple uses, but I am happy to keep using this one, even though I was worried about the residue from the clay.

Wanted to find a shampoo that wouldn't require me to do my hair every day. This is nice, but not the quality I expected. Ok, but a bit of a disappointment.

I found this shampoo to work well- but nothing extraordinary! I didn't find it really helped to keep my oily hair clean for longer then usual. I would call it a good product in the sense that it worked but not great as it did not WOW me like some other products have!
