Cleans really well, but is so gentle and left my hair so soft.

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I'm really picky about what shampoos I use.  For years now, I have limited myself to just a few product lines that don't contain sodium lauryl/laureth sulfates.  However, I love how my hair looks and feels when I leave the salon, so I decided to venture out of my comfort zone, at least for the travel size...

Usually shampoos that have sulfates in them leave me scratching my head, literally. I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle this shampoo was, no itchiness!  Yet it still cleaned my hair (with just a little bit, too).  It left my hair free of build-up, shiny, and bouncy, but not at all dried out, which I would expect from something that did all of this.

Bumble & Bumble Gentle Shampoo is FABULOUS!

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

Bumble & Bumble Gentle Shampoo is great for all hair types. My hair stylist recommended that I try Bumble & Bumble products. I asked her which shampoo was the best, and she told me that most people love the Gentle Shampoo, which is for everyday use. I was also told that all Bumble & Bumble products are made for chemically treated hair. The only downside to Bumble & Bumble products is that they are expensive.

This shampoo is very moisturizing. It adds so much shine, and works very well on chemically treated hair. It makes highlights pop out and look amazing. These products are very concentrated, so you don't need to use so much at once. This product works so well with ...

Wonderful

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I love this shampoo. I don't know if it's just mental, but I think this is my favorite shampoo ever.

I love Bumble and Bumble Gentle Shampoo and the Super Rich conditioner that is its counterpart -- it is super yummy too.

It smells so lovely and feels luxurious. It doesn't create as much lather as I am accustomed to with some chepaer shampoos but I've read elsewhere that a shampoo doesn't need great lather to get a great clean and that there are cheap ingredients added to those shampoos to make them lather because consumers "think" they need it.

When I used this shampoo regularly I felt my hair was healthier than it has ever been. I have super long hair and it takes a lot to keep it looking its best.

I just wish that it wasn't so hard to get or so expensive. I don't like having to go to a salon (not even my own salon carries it) to buy it for way more than it should cost. So now I just use it once a week as a treat!

Bumble and Bumble Gentle Shampoo works wonders!

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I am a huge fan of Bumble and Bumble hair products. Anything that is backed by so many salon professionals is guaranteed to be a great product in my eyes, and Bumble and Bumble is no exception! My hair stylist recommended Gentle Shampoo to me, and I have never looked back. Just by everyday wear and tear (not to mention hours of damaging with heat products and tools like straighteners, curlers, and blow dryers), hair needs some good old T.L.C., and with Bumble and Bumble's Gentle Shampoo, it gets that much-needed tender loving care every time I wash my hair! The combination of their Gentle Shampoo and the Super Rich Conditioner is pretty much like a visit to the salon every time, which is heavenly, to say the least! If you want your hair to look and feel it's best, and be silky smooth and radiant every time you step out of the shower, do yourself a favor and splurge on Bumble and Bumble's Gentle Shampoo!

moisturizing, transforming

I purchased this shampoo along using the matching awesome abundant conditioner at a regional salon. i experienced been extremely skeptical at very first but i believed i would give it a try. i experienced been desperate for something to salvage my hair. I experienced the standard glossy healthful asian locks but quickly after many do it yourself inflicted tortures (dyed, highlighted, permed), it absolutely was brittle and dried out like a wig. I can honestly say earlier to I employed this merchandise I do not think in any miracle shampoos or attractiveness products. quickly after just the very first wash, I could really feel my locks softened and grew to be even more like my outdated hair.

B&B Gentle shampoo is amazing!

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I love this shampoo! It's pricey, yes. It's usually 20-22 bucks at the salon for an 8 oz and between 50 and 60 bucks for a liter. However, you really only need a small amount with each wash, even for those who have longer hair. I have hair half-way down my back, and a liter of this stuff can last me as long as 6-8 months. It has a great, mild scent and it leaves your hair silky and shiny. I've never had more compliments about my hair then when I've used this product, and I notice a big difference for the worse whenever I forget how great it is and switch to store brand to save money. I think the health of your hair is worth the price of this stuff. I would recommend just splurging for the large size and moving it into travel-size bottles if needed. The smaller sizes are really not as good a deal. This pairs nicely with Bumble and Bumble superrich conditioner. My hair has at times been dry on the ends and oily at the scalp. This combination balances that out.

Not worth the price

Overall
Rated 3 out of 5

This shampoo is nice, but it really isn't worth the price. I tried it because my company gave them away as gift prizes to recruits, and I'm sure glad that I didn't have to pay for it! The smell was nice at first, but then it gets kind of overpowering. I definitely would not like to smell like that all of the time. I'll admit that my hair is naturally oily, so I didn't really need a shampoo that would make it more moist or shiny or smooth. I guess that some people would find that aspect appealing, but I think other shampoos will do the job at half the price. After I used Bumble and Bumble, I switched back to Suave Professional and I have kept using it. I know some of the girls at the office still uses Bumble and Bumble because they like the name. I guess the recruiters at my company knew what they were doing!

Bumble & Bumble Gentle Shampoo is the best

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

This is the best shampoo I have ever used but also the most expensive. Even for its price it is still woth buying. I would gladly buy it again. It gives me shiny fluffy thick hair. I have blue hair but with this shampoo it makes it stand out so much more. It gives my hair a really shiny finish and makes my hair feel really healthy. I get compliments all the time. THis is the shampoo I have been searching for; finally a shapoo that will restore my hair back to life. Bleaching my hair and constantly dying it leaves my hair feeling dry and rough but using this shampoo made it healthier. This is very effective. I would recommend for anyone who dyes their hair. It gives my hair a lot of volume. I love washing my hair with it because It even smells really good, a really unique fragrance. I wish it could be bottled up in a perfume. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a special product to boost the healthiness of their hair.

Bumble & Bumble Gentle Shampoo is a Bee

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

I tried Bumble & Bumble shampoo on a whim: it sounded like a Bee! I love the scent of honey and beeswax on just about everything, food, cleaning an dbeauty products; I have to say that it's proven deceptive because i would have expected something deeply, naturally nourishing and rich of moisture but it was drier than I hoped and did not leave the sweet, unobtrusive scent I had imagined (more like, nothing). "Gentle" shampoo is a bit too gentle; my hair is dry and I need something to make it fall more naturally. However, I recommend the shampoo because it is a good cleaning value for the price and I feel safe, it does not take away too much of my hair's own chemicals. I would recommend UK, garden-based shampoos instead - but I don't want to name competitors because Bumble & Bumble has been good to me; I feel that providing other brands would be mean, and I did not find my favorite on the Viewpoints pages: those would be more expensive, too.

Bumble & Bumble is the best for sensitive hair!

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

I had gone for years searching for a shampoo that would work for my hair. It's medium length and naturally colored. My hair for some reason doesn't accept most shampoos. After drying my hair with other shampoo, my hair gets dry and there are white flakes of shampoo leftover in my hair. I finally found a new salon to go to. They used Bumble & Bumble in my hair before giving it a trim. My hair turned out shiny and smooth; and no flakes. I was extremely happy. When I tried it at home it also worked. I have to have a lot of it in my hair though, so the small bottles run out fast. The only bad thing is that it's expensive. That's why I get mine online(Ebay). I get the large bottle, with the pump top so I don't have to try and squeeze the shampoo out the top. Hopefully in a few years the prices will go down for it. There are only a few types of shampoo that work on my hair, but Bumble & Bumble gentle shampoo is my favorite. Plus, it smells nice.

The high quality of this shampoo is definitely worth the price.

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

Let me start out by saying that I have always been blessed with beautiful, long chestnut-colored hair.  When I was younger, I had the time (and youth!) to maintain healthy hair.  But now that I am older and have other responsibilities and priorities (i.e., kids, work, husband) I need a hair product that makes my hair beautiful with minimal effort.  I have been dying my hair to cover those grays for several years now and my hair is increasingly prone to damage and breakage.  One Christmas my girlfriend gave me the Bumble & Bumble Gentle Shampoo and I have sworn by it ever since.  It preserves my hair and gives it a gentle sheen and prevents breakage.  My only com...

My Hair very Dry and Brittle and now its full of Life

Overall

Bumble and and bumble Gentle Shampoo

I am 38 years old and I bought Bumble and bumble Gentle Shampoo because I was loosing my bounce and my hair was very brittle. I have used many hair products to try and bring back the natural flow and nothing seemed to work as good. My hair was very brittle and dry and after using this products my hair found life.  The Gentle Shampoo does not weigh down my hair, Infact, use a little and it gives you alot of suds. My 17 year old daughter started using this product and loves it!

There were a couple different size bottles which is great. I bought the 33.8 oz bottle and has lasted me and my family over 6 months.  The price is similair to many other high end products. I will continue using this

The best shampoo I've ever used!

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I love the way this shampoo feels, smells, and makes my hair feel afterwards.  I buy the biggest container possible so I don't have to pay more for smaller containers.  It cleans your hair without stripping it and drying it out.  I have sensitive skin and have never had a problem with this product.  It's great!

Bumble & Bumble Gentle Shampoo is absolutely worth paying more.

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I tried this shampoo because my hair stylist recommended it to me.  I was hesitant to pay over twenty bucks for shampoo, but he assured me it was worth it.  I have pretty damaged hair that's been color treated, blow dried, and flat ironed wayyyy too much.  This shampoo made my hair so much more manageable, and it looks great.  Definitely get Bumble & Bumble conditioner to go with the shampoo and your hair will really appreciate it.
