Firecat says "Wanted to love the product...but it dried my hair out!" about Burt's Bees Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo

My friend RAVED about this product and how it made her hair so shiny and wonderful because it doesn't contain sodium laurel sulfate etc. But when I purchased it to see how wonderful it was, I wasn't impressed. It smells great (if you like the smell of grapefruit- which I do), and it still lathers like it would with the sodium laurel sulfate (which, NEWSFLASH - that ingredient doesn't really dry out your hair), BUT this stuff, even when coupled with the conditioner and other leave in conditioners, dried my hair out and made it crazy brittle! My hair has NEVER broken this much.....NEVER EVER!

I've been using it for about 3 weeks and was all excited that it would be making my hair so much better. But over the last few days I've noticed that my hair is breaking and has a major amount of split ends now. Therefore I put two and two together and have decided to promptly stop using it.

The moral of this review: This stuff isn't for everyone. If you have fine, more oily hair (which...

I tried the Burt's Bees Grapefruit & Sugar Beet shampoo because it was on sale & I decided to splurge. The shampoo smelled great and I was excited to give it a try, especially since it's sulfate-free. Well, the first couple of uses I thought it was OK but really left my hair tangle-y. But I gave it a chance for two weeks. After two weeks, not only did it leave my hair excessively dry (actually, a little crispy-feeling, even after conditioning), but I had lost a TON of hair to the shower drain. I do not recommend this shampoo to anyone.

Dashica says "Natural Formula, but not the best results" about Burt's Bees Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo

This shampoo is 98.8% natural, as all the Burt's Bees products. It smells great and it is gentle enough to use on my 9mos old daughter, but you MUST use conditioner after that, otherwise your hair is tangled and not manageable at all.

Picklesmom says "I love my "Super Shiny" shampoo!" about Burt's Bees Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo

I have been using "Burt's Bees" Super Shiny, Grapefruit and Sugar Beet shampoo for over a year. It is natural, fresh scented, non perfumey product. I have allergies to many chemicals found in shampoos, conditioners and moisturizers; Burt's Bees uses natural ingredients that I can easily identify on their label. I am always satisfied and allergy free after using anything I try from Burt's Bees! Thank you, looking forward to trying other items in your product line!

Caprig says "I Can't Pry It Out of His Hands Until He Dies" about Burt's Bees Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo

When I first decided to try BURT'S BEES SUPER SHINY GRAPEFRUIT & SUGAR BEET SHAMPOO it was on clearance at the drugstore. For $2.99 I thought it was worth a try. It has been quite a few years now since my family made the big switch from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate body washes, shampoos, soaps, dish liquid, toothpaste, and yes, even makeup. We have been free of the winter itchies and enjoying the nicest hair ever since making the switch.

WHAT IS BURT'S BEES SUPER SHINY GRAPEFRUIT & SUGAR BEET SHAMPOO LIKE?

When I first opened the Burts Bees Super Shiny shampoo, I fell in love with the fragrance. It is nice and crisp like a grapefruit with a twist of tangerine and lime. The shampoo itself is a very light plant green color - almost clear. It is not overly thick but not too runny either.

The bottle is a flip top clear bottle with 12 oz of shampoo in it.

HOW DOES BURTS BEES SHINY SHAMPOO PERFORM?

Despite not having Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (or its undercover cousins) in it, I found that......

ShirleyG says "smells wonderful, dries hair out" about Burt's Bees Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo

I really wanted to like this product. I enjoy many other Burt's Bees products. This shampoo smells great, but it left my hair overly dry, even after using conditioner. I have color-treated hair (high-lights and low-lights), and this product made it look dull and feel very dry. In fact, after using it three times, I stopped because I was concerned about the damage it might be causing.

I think that if you have slightly oily hair, this would be a wonderful product. Based on my personal experience, It's questionable whether it is appropriate for color-treated or processed hair that tends to be on the dry side.

bwp1975 says "I can't believe I LOVE this shampoo so much!" about Burt's Bees Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo

I have never seen any difference in my hair whatsoever with any shampoo I had ever used. I've used the cheapest 88 cent a bottle shampoo to expensive salon shampoos and have never seen any difference in my hair.

Now that I have a family, I am even more aware of what goes into commercial products and how they affect our health - and our budget. In an effort to buy more environmentally-conscious products, I began shopping at a local health food store for personal items and stumbled upon this shampoo and thought I would try it.

Holy cow, does it make your hair shiny!!!!! My mom commented on my step-daughters hair and I found myself gushing about how much I love this new shampoo I bought. I even told the lady at CVS how much I love it (CVS carries the Burt's Bees brand, too).

It's just shampoo, I know, but I love knowing that I'm getting quality out of this product and supporting the environment.
