Pros: Refreshing smell, easy dispensing, clean smooth hair.
Cons: I can't find a bigger bottle.
The Bottom Line: It is worth a try, even if you haven had success with Herbal Essence in the past.

| actfree's Full Review: Herbal Essences Rainforest Flowers Refreshing Sham... |
I must admit, in the past I have not liked the original line of Herbal Essence. I found the smells strange and didn't like what they did for my hair. So, I strayed far down the isle away from them. After having a few frustrating changes with my hair, most likely due to a pregnancy, I was checking out what was available at my local grocery store. Then I saw it. Herbal Essences Rainforest Flowers Refreshing Shampoo for Normal Hair, "do I dare give Herbal Essence another try?" I thought. I decided that I could at least give it a smell and see what it smelled like. So, I flipped the lid and got a little smell of the shampoo. Delicious smell, not like the smells in the past. It was on sale for $2.49 so in my cart it went. The next morning I took my shower excited to try my new shampoo. It lathered up quickly and still smelled good as it was washing down the drain. I turned the water off, now for the real test, how was my hair going to handle Herbal Essences Rainforest Flowers shampoo, I would have to wait until the end of the day to get the complete test results. After my hair dried it was full and not at all weighed down. I went through my day chasing my boys and doing housework. That night as I brushed my teeth, I checked my hair out. I had been use to seeing a greasy top the last 4 months, but to my delight that night I was not greasy, it was still shiny and beautiful. I had found a hit. Just to be sure, I continued using it for a month to make sure there was not residue building up. Sure enough, I have found a surprise in a shampoo that I typically would have shied away from. I have found a shampoo that works great during my pregnancy and perhaps will continue to work well afterwards.
Down to the facts time.
Description: Shampoo has a light lavender tint; consistency of shampoo is easily squeezed out of the bottle without a lot of effort. Lathers quickly to a nice thick, white foam. Flip top green lid for easy dispensing.
Size:
I have only found it sold in 12 ounce bottles. It could be sold in larger bottles but I have only seen the 12-ounce size.
