I know on the grand scale of things, this is petty, but I need a good shampoo. I want shine, I want volume, I want bounce and I want it for less than thirty flippin' dollars a bottle.

Thanks for the plug Scooterbug. I make some great shampoo and conditioners and will have some at the Farmer's Market this Saturday. The shower gel is good for your hair too makes it shiny.
Any of the beach soap that I keep asking about? ;-)

So, DD- have you figured out which poo you will try first?

Well -- I don't know if frizz is a problem for you, but if so I can share with you my new favorite shampoo --
Sephora: Living Proof Shampoo: Normal
Most humidity blocking products are full of silicone and make your hair greasy...this stuff is made with a newly patented ingredient that doesn't weigh your hair down at all. In fact, I've had really big hair since I started using it.
The whole line is fabulous...but especially the styling spray. You can spray it on hair that is already frizzed and it will smooth it. It's amazing stuff.

I'm still analyzing the data, but I will be forthcoming with a poo solution soon, I'm sure. Well -- I don't know if frizz is a problem for you, but if so I can share with you my new favorite shampoo --

Punzy! I'm so glad you showed up. I'd kill for your hair!! I do have an issue with frizz, so I am definitely interested in this. Thanks for the tip.!

You have beautiful hair! I need a recommendation for a cut and color from somewhere. I have really long hair, so they need to be able to work with that. Any suggestions?
Brittany at Fusion Grand Boulevard. I've got the best cut of my life since going to her. She loves long hair, but she's even great with Jr. Critter's super thick hair. And she's not expensive.

If you want shampoo sans packaging, Lush makes a few. I brought one back to Bdarg, and he loves it.

Whatever happened to Prell?....it was the S@9Ts years ago, before somebody(ies) came up with 1,547 other products that the average consumer couldn't live without.
As for me, I've got more hair than I know what to do with, and so many cowlicks that it looks like I passed through the entire herd! And, I'll stick with Head and Shoulders.....I've never had dandruff, on my head or my shoulders (though maybe the long-term use is why my head hair has migrated to my shoulders..?)!

I wondered about Prell not long ago.

I love the fragrance of Aveda products, but my current salon doesn't carry that line. My favorite cheapo products are Redken All-Soft from Walmart. Right now I am using Brazilian Blowout Acai products because I just spent $300 plus a 15% tip to get my air straightened. So did our daughter. Her straightening didn't work because afterward when she complained, she was told that her hair was too healthy for a straightening to work. She got a $300 credit. Of course that doesn't cover the $45 tip and $100 in Brazilian Blowout hair products.
We spent so much at the salon that Visa thought it was a fraudulent charge because they thought it was impossible to spend that much money at a hair salon. So I used my debit card.
She's our only child. It was for her wedding. So I splurged. Thankfully she had the confidence to complain. No complaints regarding her hairdresser. He drove down from Buckhead and did the entire wedding party's blowouts for free. How sweet is that?
Oh, and hubby uses VO5 Volumizing Shampoo. So cute if you are familiar with his hair. He likes the fragrance.

Thanks BR, I can always count on you to make one of my splurges like buying "nice" shampoo seem like a trip to Goodwill. :roll:

I use the Aveda Shampure and conditioner and since it is the shower so does my husband #@(*&$%. Then when the bottle is empty and I don't want to go to salon just to get shampoo, I use Pantene.
