We are a group of cosmetic scientists who understand what the chemicals used in cosmetics really do, how products are tested, and what all the advertising means.

They usually stock a few Blondie and brunette of each brand and then have one or no shades of red. I wish they would have as many choices in the hair color isle.

They cleanse well; the conditioners are great. I have alot of hair but its fine in texture. Their products do not have an overwhelming fragrance. Shampoo is in a black plastic bottle and I believe the conditioner is either in a black bottle or a white one. Last long because you don't need to use alot and like Pantene was used in salons. Price is better than Pantene and for me it works better. I love Tresemme products. They cleanse well; the conditioners are great. I have alot of hair but its fine in texture.

A lot of that marketing blah-blah works not to inform a customer, but to keep them as confused as possible, so that they continually wander around trying this and that. The LAST thing the industry (or any industry) wants is to have a completely satisfied customer. Uncertain, confused people are a lot easier to soak for money. I can tell you, since I settled independently on my own on just using Pantene since it seemed to work, I've spent less on hair care. I know what I want to buy, and I don't sit there vacillating over product anymore in the supermarket going, "Maybe this one will fix my hair, no maybe this one, wait, maybe this one, no ... " I know precisely what works and why, and I'm a LESS ideal consumer because of it, I'm sure of it. That's why the industry doesn't do what Rob suggests. Although I have to admit, if he's insecure enough to fear using something in a pink bottle, that's another problem that can't be cured by marketing. :-) Dude, I use men's deodorant without fear for my self-identity. Get over it. I can see his cynicism, though.

No funky smells and you can buy in large bottles at CostCo that last about a month or more. And that's with the fact I wash my hair every single day. I just use Panteen.
