I decided to try this after using New Wash and really liking how it made my hair, but I was allergic to something in it and it hurt my scalp. This stuff does as good of a job cleansing and makes my hair just as nice, but doesn’t bother my scalp. It’s also considerably cheaper than New Wash. one thing to note is you do need to shake it to mix it up each time. The first bottle I got, I didn’t do that and it was separated like a can of coconut milk- half was solid, half was runny. So you’ll want to give it a good shake to incorporate. Nice smelling, too- a faint cucumber smell.
