The right hair product can make or break a fantastic haircut.
As a hairstylist, saying that I’m a “product junkie” is quite the understatement. I love trying out new products and mixing and matching until I find the perfect concoctions. There’s such a huge variety in hair textures and needs and, thankfully, there are thousands of products that serve as styling aids to help encourage a great hair day. I’ve enjoyed the challenge of pairing the right product with the right texture in my experience of working behind the chair. I know the feeling of a “good hair day” and really hope my clients experience those more often than not!
ULTA Beauty is celebrating “Love Your Hair” for 21 days, May 12-June 1. It includes hair events, demos, and prizes that are sure to help you love your hair. Everyday there will be a Beauty Stealâ„¢ on hair products and tools–a great time to stock up on your favorites or try out something new!
These were some of my favorite products that will be offered during the Love Your Hair event. Abba Shampoo and Conditioner was new to me, but I was pretty impressed. It was light and fresh. I also really loved the silkiness that Orofluido Beauty Elixir left on my ends. I was able to get great volume, which is my measure of hair product success, after using a few of these!
There are so many products to choose from, it’s hard not to find something you’ll love.
ULTA Beauty is promoting a “hair pledge” for women to love the hair they have for a chance to win free blowouts for a year. I’m a big advocate for loving your hair, so I love that ULTA is encouraging women to look at their hair in a positive light. All you have to do is tweet your hair pledge with the hashtag #ULTAhairpledge and you’ll be entered to win. This starts on May 12th.
On top of this Love Your Hair event, ULTA Beauty and BlogHer have provided a $100.00 ULTA Beauty gift card for me to giveaway to a lucky reader! Enter to win by answering the question in bold (leave your e-mail address in the comment too!)below.
Are you an experimenter, or a “I’ll stick with what I know works” kind of product user? I have my all-time favorites, that I always have in back stock under my bathroom sink, but I love incorporating something new that looks appealing.

I think I’m definitely an experimenter when it comes to my hair products. I do go back to certain products, but I always love seeing what’s out there and trying new things. It’s all about finding that “holy grail” of hair products!

I definitely have my old stand bys but I think you need to keep trying new hair products! You may surprise yourself! My friend and I have similar hair so we like to each try a new product, then switch. That way, we get to try two new products! Thank you so much 🙂
I am an experimenter with my hair for sure!
jaimerobins@gmail.com
I am an experimenter. I don’t think I’ve ever bought the same products twice. Even when the product works, I go back to the store to re-purchase and my eye always catches something else.
ericagladden@yahoo.com
Experimenter here! Always looking for the right products to tame frizz and pump up the volume!
I think I have a pretty healthy mix of experimenter and “I’ll stick with what I know works”. I love the routine of using the same products but every once in a while, I get a wild hair and look for something to spice my routine up.
Sarah122708@gmail.com
Although I’m a “I’ll stick with what I know works” person, I find that I need to switch it up once in awhile. I get bored after a few months.
I tend to stick with my usual hair products, but I’m definitely not afraid to experiment with new products every once in a while. It’s fun to try new things!
I just switched all of my hair products AFTER watching Kate’s video’s on YouTube! I landed on her page via a link and it was just before my hair appointment. So I showed my hair stylist what Kate’s hair looked like, the layers, the soft curls, which was exactly what I was looking for! She was excited to do Kate’s ideas on my hair! I bought a lot of the products Kate suggested through my Salon, some I had to just fudge because they didn’t carry certain ones. But low and behold I can do my hair exactly like hers! I took photos on Mother’s Day and got a lot of comments about the hairstyle, which is new for me as I usually can not end up styling it like the salon. But with Kate’s videos I was able to do the soft curls and make them stay all day! Thanks to Kate and to Ulta (more product!) I have great hair again!
I usually stick with the standbys but recently got some Alterna shampoo and conditioner samples after making a purchase at sephora and they make my hair fabulous!! My old standby has changed to Alterna now.

I love my old stand bys but also love trying new products. Samples are helpful with that so I don’t risk a lot of money on something that won’t work on me.
I tweeted for an entry as well!

I fall in the middle of experimenter and stick to what I know. I love to experiment on random Saturdays when I know no one will see my hair creation!
I am always on the constant “hunt” for the perfect working frizz control product!!! 🙂 I try new products all the time!
I’m still learning what products that I like and love the tips we get from you. The choices can be overwhelming! Thank you!
I am SUCH an experimenter. I recently went through my bathroom to declutter and there was a LOT of hair product that had failed. I like to try new stuff and have thin hair that just doesn’t do a whole lot on it’s own.

I’m constantly trying something different because i haven’t found anything i really love.
I need to be treating my hair A LOT better! This would def help 😉 it’s so bland & boring!
I have products I gravitate back to for sure, but I LOVE any chance to try something new and at any given time have more hair products under my sink than is normal. 🙂
I am kind of an experimenter, but when I do find something I love, I will stick with it for a while. I wish I lived closer to you because i could use a serious hair consultation and the right hair concoction! Thanks for all the giveaway opportunities, but this one would for sure be helpful!
Experimenter! It’s fun to try new things to see if they work better than what I have been using. aparrish@rkk.com
I’m always ready to try something new!
I’m a little of both. I have tried and true favorites but then I will hear recommendations such as the Oscar Blandi Hair Lift and I’ll run out and buy a sample to see if I love it more. stephaniektully@yahoo.com

I like trying new products, but I also always have my “go-to” products stockpiled in my cabinet.
I am a total experinenter! I love trying new products to find ones that work best!
*Experimenter
I’m a little bit of both. My hair is curly, and I know what works to get it straight quickly. But if something catches my eye and sounds like it would be great for my hair, I always end up buying it. And that would be why my bathroom cabinet looks ridiculous. 🙂

https://twitter.com/meg1t/status/334659230982356994
I’m an experimenter, and have never had hair products that I use over and over again. My hair has changed so much over the years that I feel like I have to constantly re-train myself how to do it!
Definitely both! I have my go-to products, but I love trying new things that promise the results I’m looking for! Maybe one day that new item will become a staple!
I’m a product junkie! I am always looking for something new to try!
I am always trying new products. I have been looking for more natural alternatives but they don’t seem to work as well. So now I am on the hunt again as it seems my hair has changed as I get older. Thanks for the giveaway!!
I’m on the fence here, I will experiment but I don’t want to waste precious $ so I don’t splurge alot on new products but am always seeing what works well for others to try sometimes. And as everyone else, I always have my old faithfuls on standby 🙂

I am definitely an experimenter. I usually want to try the “new” thing that everybody is raving over more times then not. My theory is, “there may be something better out there” and I definitely want to find it.

I’m an experimenter as well. My favorite is the Biosilk line so I always have that in my shower. I love that there are a ton of the different products that I can try on my hair. I have been really wanting to try the Living Proof Restore Line! I don’t cut or color my hair so Im constantly buying products for my hair. (I know, most people cringe when I say that) BUT I will buy expensive products that actually work in order to take care of my hair. I consider it an investment rather than a splurge purchase 🙂
whoops! I forgot my Email adress! Its senecamo19@yahoo.com
I tweeted on this also:
https://twitter.com/TheLaLa0825/status/334660896834080768
I generally like to experiment because I can never find products I absolutely love love love to buy again. Except recently I’ve been using the Living Proof Full line and I definitely think I will be repurchasing! And I always use Moroccan oil on my ends.
kpoppe1 @ gmail.com
I experiment. 🙂 I mix it up because I have NEVER found anything that I loved. I need volume, but moisture as well. I am always on the look out for volume.
I think I am an experimenter but there are a few things I can’t do without. Redken blow out lotion is a must have. Makes my hair so smooth and smells awesome too. My fav hairspray is Scruples White Tea. Amazing spray.
I’m not very brave when it comes to my hair. Long, thick and wavy, I used to try to force it to be straight and I used to lose that battle on a daily basis. A trip to a new stylist and some layers along with a product or two and I love my soft waves.
Oh I’m an experimenter for sure. My hair is fine, thin and limp. It looks good for about five minutes. I’m always on the hunt for products that build body, volume and hold!
I LOVE to experiment with new products, I am a product junkie myself. I am so bad I almost never entirely use up products because I am constantly buying new one so the old ones just get pushed to the back of the closet.
kt_618@hotmail.com
I love experimenting with products…at times I feel like I have way too much products. My one question for you, Kate, would be, how long should I try a project to see if it works for me?
I generally just stick to what I know but I do believe I am due for a change up since I am growing my hair out.

I experiment with new products…I try to find what works and different products work for me at different times of the year. In the humid months, I have to combat that more than I do at other times of the year.

I’m definitely an experimenter! If I didn’t experiment (and read your blog) I would have never tried Aquage root lifter. Changed my life! 🙂 addieusc@yahoo.com
I stick with what I know works! I HATE it when my products get discontinued or the formulas change!
ashley.d.whisenant@gmail.com
The only thing I tend to experiment with is shampoo and conditioner, based on what’s on sale when I run out and need to buy more! But I know what kind of formula works best on my hair – hydrating but not heavy. snowjoy9@gmail.com
I am most definitely an experimenter when it comes to hair products!! I love seeing what’s out there and there is always such an excitement of using new stuff to see what it’s going to do! jannaconn@yahoo.com
I think I’m a combination…I’ll buy products to try based on recommendations, but in practice, I usually use the same ol’ things. summerdstewart@gmail.com
I tend to use the same stuff. But it is currently not working! Need to get to ULTA.

I love to experiment but find myself sticking with the same products for long periods of time until something else comes along. I wish I would remember to try all the products I’ve accumulated on a more regular basis!
Thanks for the giveaway… my email is in my Google public profile!
I usually stick with what I know, but you’ve helped me be brave and I’ve found some great products based on your recommendations!
I am also a product junkie! I have my favorite ‘go-to’ products, but I like to experiment with others, too! My ‘hair drawer’ is full of products! I just switched my root lifter to Aquage and am loving it!!!
I’m an experimenter to some degree. I have some favorites but I like to try knew stuff too.
I would like to think I’m more of an experimenter but to be honest I’m definitely one that sticks to something that works. Mostly because products can get expensive and I always hate when I spend money on something and it doesn’t work!

An ULTA gift card would be fantastic, because I always buy all of my hair products there. I have really fine and thin hair after going through a lot of chemo as a kid, but I’ve definitely found my product “concoction” that works for me to plump up my hair. I always use TIGI Your Highness thickening gel creme all over my hair, then spritz some of the TIGI Your Highness root boost spray on the crown of my hair before drying it upside down. After flat ironing my hair, I’ll flip some hair at the crown of my head over to dust on some Osis Dust-It powder before backcombing with a Spornette Little Wonder brush. I finish it all off with a light spray of TIGI Bedhead Masterpiece hairspray. Lately, I have been experimenting with different shampoo and conditioner combinations, and I’m loving the product lines with Moroccan Argan Oil in them. They make my hair shiny, smooth and don’t weigh down my hair at all.

I have a giant basket full of hair products that will argue I’m definitely an experimenter, but I do love my “go-to” products. Ever since watching your YouTube channel I will never be without Kenra hairspray again.

I am willing to experiment but I do prefer to have a recommendation from someone so I won’t waste my money. As far as shampoos though, I’m definitely willing to try new things. Thanks!

I used to never change what products I used, but in the past few years I’ve gone from one product to another trying to find something that works best for my hair. It’s fun to experiment, but I hate spending money on products and then them not working well for me! Such a bummer!
I am a mixture… I have the things I love but I try new styling products frequently.

I am an experimenter and product junkie- but I think it’s because I’m searching for the perfect product to make me want to stick with something.

I’m kind of both…I have a couple products I always use on my hair because I know they work. BUT, I also love trying new ones! Birchbox helps with that bc I’ll get products I’ve never heard of and in a sample size so I can try it out without the commitment of buying a full size product.
knprusak@hotmail.com
I’m a combination. When I find something that I think works, I will use it and only it, only I know I may be missing out on something better. I love to try new products based on a solid recommendation (which is why your blog has been so good for me), but venturing out on my own is overwhelming. I am afraid of spending $20 on a product that ends up not working!

I am definitely an experimenter. I have fine, thin hair, and I’m always on the lookout for a product that will help with that. Most recently, I found Suave’s (don’t judge me!) root lifter. I wash my hair at night and spray that on my roots, and my hair has so much more volume in the morning.
https://twitter.com/CatYatesCooking/status/334696705209552896
I am always experimenting with shampoo. I pretty much use the same oil, styling cream, uplifting foam and hair spray, though.
Thanks to you, Kate, I’ve become much more of an experimenter! (As long as the budget allows, hehe.) You’ve made me a Birchbox fan and an Ulta shopper so it’s been fun trying things steadily over time. You’ve also made me a faithful Aquage and Kenra 25 user, and I’m sure those things I’ll be sticking with for a long time! 🙂

Amonda84@aol.com
I love to experiment but sadly it seems as though it never works out! I’m not too wild when it comes to trying new hair products just because I’ve had bad experiences so I normally end up keeping the same products I always use. Because my hair is thick, but sleek, it’s hard to find products to add volume without it being too product-y. Prices for good quality stuff always is a turn off too just because why spend $25 on a styling product that you don’t know will work? I’ve branched out more with hairstyles and looks thanks to Kate, but still weary!

I try to experiment but lately nothing seems to hold a curl with my hair. It doesn’t matter how much hair product I use I just can’t keep styled curls.

I stick with the stuff that’s changed my life, like Moroccan Oil. But I still haven’t found the perfect shampoo or hair mask, so I do change it up every now and then.

I’m an experimenter, but had such bad experience lately that I’ve been stuck in a rut. Would love to try some new things at Ulta!
I love experimenting with new products. I particularly love products that increase volume, however I use a variety of products each day. I love the ones that you have suggested in the past like the Aquage Uplifting Foam.

I’m going to go with a different answer and say I’m a copier. I have my “go to products” and I’m not big on just buying stuff out and trying it but if my stylist goes crazy over a product or my friends are talking about something that works for them – then I’m definitely trying it. I love your favorites posts as well.

I’m usually a stick to what you know girl but thanks to you, Aquage uplifting foam is now my neww BFF.

i’m always experimenting, i like to switch up shampoos every so often.
Occasionally, I experiment with new products, but I usually go back to my standbys that have been working out for me in the past.
I stick to what works but I should branch out! My hair needs a lift 🙂

I am definitely an experimenter with hair products. I love trying new creams, oils, hairspary, shampoos and on and on. The problem though is that I am becoming a hoarder!<
I like to try new things. I have naturally curly hair, but I live in a beach town. I have yet to find the right combo to tame the frizz on humid days.

My hair usually reflects my stick-with-a-ponytail-holder-and-bobby-pins approach. 🙂 Sometimes I use Garnier Fructis curl spray gel and scrunch my hair to get a pretty curled look. But it usually just goes up in a bun/messy bun or ponytail with my bangs braided or pinned back. I rarely use hairspray. I’m getting back into my windows-rolled-down-while-I’m-driving mode so my hair can get rather messy. 🙂
I love to try new products but always have my tried and true for back up. I am actually going to Ulta today to buy the Big Sexy Hair root pump and hairspray. I have been wanting to try it for awhile and now it is on sale! woohoo!!
tcufrog98@att.net
I love to experiment with new products. My hair is naturally curly, but I wear it straight and I am always on the lookout for a product to keep it from getting frizzy in the summer.

I am TRYING to become more of an experimenter! I generally do the same things, but would like to learn how to get out of the box more often!
I am definitely a “I’ll stick with what I know works” hair product gal. I love Keune and Bumble & Bumble products. I do try some new things every now and then but I LOVE LOVE LOVE these two brands. The work so well on my hair.
I’m an experimenter because I’m still trying to figure out what works for me! Yep, 31 and still don’t know how to do my own hair. Recently I discovered root pump plus by big sexy hair and I’m liking it for trying to get volume-so far so good!

I would LIKE to be an experimenter, but on a budget it’s difficult. I always have the things that I know work and continue to buy those and will try new things as the budget allows but that’s usually not very common and I’m scared to just leave the regulars in order to try something new in case it doesn’t work and I’m stuck with it until I can by my regular again. I’m getting more into experimenting though and enjoying it!
I am an experimenter of the worst kind! Even if I like what I’m using, I will try something new “just because.” I suppose there’s a part of me that wonders if there’s something out there even better.

My experimentation comes in bursts. I think I hit ruts of complacency where I just straighten my hair everyday or put it in a ponytail — no creativity, no experimentation. I think I’m getting better at being consistently excited about my hair. I’ve learned some new styles and textures, too.
It’s amazing — I’ve had my hair for almost 23 years and I’m just NOW figuring out its full potential. (A lot of it is thanks to you, too!)
I tend to be a “go with what I know” girl. I just don’t have the money to experiment on hair products.

hate to say it but i’m an experimenter [with tons of unused products] who goes back to her old ways and does nothing except twist it up. though when i do let it down and its dry, it does give my hair some wave.
I have a few standbys that I like a lot (I haven’t found anything I LOVE), but otherwise, I do like to try new things. I usually wait until a weekend, though, in case of a disaster…
Experimenter!, I believe there is always something better out there, that I will find!
I adore this giveaway and would love to try these products!

I am definitely a combination of both “tried and true” hair products and changing it up every few months. I have naturally curly, color-treated hair, which I sometimes wear straight. I find each season and hairstyle requires a little something different! michellelata@gmail.com
I like to experiment, but having curly hair I find I am constantly disappointed (too frizzy, not enough hold, too crunchy, etc) so I always end up going back to my tried and true…

I love trying new things for my hair but sometimes I don’t want to waste money if it is not good…It’s a toss up for me.
I just moved and forced myself to throw out all the hair products (and makeup) that I bought, tried and found something new before I could finish. Ulta is my weak spot, back when they sent quarterly freebies I was always shocked to see how high my points were… ignorance is bliss 🙂
I am definitely an “I’ll stick with what I know works” kind of product user. I don’t have a lot of extra cash to experiment.

I love that Birchbox lets me experiment beyond my hair though, so that’s my favorite type of exploration! But I love reading magazines and blogs for new products and ideas!
I actually have and LOVE the Orofluido Elixer!!! (I used it today even!) It smells AMAZING!!!

Funny that it’s all about hair and loving it today, because I have been working on getting my hair to love me back, haha. The past few days I haven’t been styling it, and I am sure some extra conditioning product with the ULTA gift card would make it love me even more 🙂

I have my go- to products but I’m always trying new things to see if I can “love my hair” more!

I’m not sure if I’m using too much or not enough, still working on that!

Experimenter! Always on the look for something that will give me my dream hair though 🙂 Until I find it, I’m a product ‘junkie’
I love to try new products for hair and make up products. I just did my first ever shopping spree at Ulta this past weekend. Totally hooked!
Total experimenter here…with a cabinet full of product “misses” to prove it!
Oh goodness! I am definitely a try anything and everything type of girl! I bet I have about 30 products in my cabinet that I rotate for use. Regarding Ulta, I spent $70 there yesterday on just Big Sexy Hair products alone. A girl can’t resist $10 hair products that good!

I’d say I’m a mix of an experimenter and sticking to products I know I love. I’ve recently broken out of my comfort zone and started using different products when I do my hair curly, I think I always stuck to the same ones because I knew I wouldn’t get frizz with them – however, they made my hair crunchy. So I started experimenting and it is addicting!

Definite experimenter. Always looking for products that can make my hair look better I.e. VOLUME! Love Abba shampoo and conditioner, but haven’t been able to find it for years. Glad to know I can find it at Ulta. Thanks!
I like trying new products based on reviews. I often find new faves that way. I rarely pick up something random though. But, I always have a stash of faves under my sink.
I usually only use what’s on sale at the drug store.
I stick with what I know
Definitely a hair product experimenter 🙂 Orofluido is mmy latest love!
When I find something I like, I stick with it. But I am forever on a search for finding new things I like. This means I have tons of products.
I am totally an experimenter. I have a basket full of half empty products that I forget I have…but it is now coming in handy since I have small kids and shop for hair products a lot less.
I’m definitely both. I have thick curly hair that can definitely get out of control during these NC summer months so am always looking for that ‘perfect’ combination to leave it soft & frizz free, but I love my devacurl conditioner & definitely have my fall back products that have always served me well!

I like to buy new products when my current products runs out. I don’t try new things if I have a whole bottle of another product left at home (due to cost), but I would love to experiment more!!
I’m an experimenter! I LOOOVE trying out new products!
I’m an experimenter! I have yet to find the “perfect” product for my thick, corse hair so I love trying out new products to see if they may be “the one”. The hardest part is making myself finish off products before moving onto the next thing!

I am definitely an EXPERIMENTER! I like to try new hair products and brands for this naturally curly hair.
I feel like I try new products somewhat often, but haven’t quite found the perfect concoction yet. My hair seems so dependent on weather and water. When I travel, it can be great or really bad.
I really like to stick with what works because bad hair days STINK but when you talk about products you love I’m willing to try them because I trust your opinion! I’ve found some great new hair products from doing that!! Thanks! jdeal19@live.com

I will try new products if I have read about them before.
I love love love trying new products, and seeing what’s out there. My hair is naturally a more “dry” texture, and I use heat on it every day, so I look for products with a lot of hydration and moisture. Someday I want to try Wen, but I’ll get a small bottle to make sure I like it 🙂
I am very much of a “stick with what I know” person when it comes to hair products especially. When I try new items, I am usually disappointed and end up with a cabinet full of unused products.

I definitely like to experiment. I have so many products in my medicine cabinet because I buy something new before I even use up the other product — it drives my husband nuts! I just recently bought Big Sexy Hair’s root pump and hair spray and I am really liking that so hopefully I have found those ‘staple’ items. Today I bought the Lanza shampoo, conditioner and oil and I am looking forward to trying it out in the morning.

flutterbyebeth@gmail.com
I like to experiment with products on occassion! Though I mostly just stick to shampoo & conditioner, a leave-in split end treatment every once in a while, and a good hairspray to cement down any flyaways when I do an updo. I’ve had very long, very straight hair most of my life; I’m so used to seeing it flat against my head, that I think it looks odd with any volume! Maybe someday I’ll break myself of that habit. 😉 Right now, though, I’m on a strict budget, so I’ll be sticking to my low-end shampoo & conditioner. Good ole V05! Just not in the budget right now to experiment.
I have my favorite “go-to” products, but I’m also always on the hunt for the Holy Grail, especially when it comes to providing volume!
Love your blog, Kate!

I’m definitely someone who likes to try new products. I’m a sucker for pretty packaging and yummy scented products.
I’m always trying something new.
austma7@aol.com
I go through phases with product for my prone-to-frizz hair.
Definitely not a habitual user of any one thing except a light glossing over with coconut oil.
At mid-life, I am looking for a new do, and wish I lived in Raleigh.
Well, at least for a day or so. 🙂

I usually stick with what works, but it’s fun to try something new once in awhile. mschmitt012@gmail.com
Are you an experimenter, or a “I’ll stick with what I know works” kind of product user? – Well, I am a “try til I find the right product” kind of girl. I have been rather mean to my hair and went from Black to bright honey blonde, so damaged is an understatement, so I have to ‘try’ several products and change them as my hair gets healthier.

I like to experiment with products, and am fond of friend (or professional) recommendations. As a girl who would roll her hair in velcro rollers before class in college everyday, I can attend that I LOVE good hair! 🙂 And the more volume the better, as far as I’m concerned, too.
A little of both. I have a few things that I love and probably wont wander from – but I’m also interested in trying new products!
I like to try new things….

I stick with what works not because I’m lazy, but because I’m cheap! As a poor college student, cheap and easy is all i’ve got!
I tend to stick with what I know works with my hair, but every now and then I like to try something new if it looks promising.
I’m like you–I have my favorites, but I’m always up for trying something new, too.
When it comes to hair products I definitely stick to what i know works with my hair! As long as I like the product… I always have the same staple products but I love trying out new ones that I hear about! hrawlings71@gmail.com

I am having a mini 1/3 life crisis and desperately need a change for my hair. This would be the perfect way to jump start a new look. Thanks for all you do!
I tend to stick with what I know works for my hair. I have very thick, wavy hair that goes crazy with the littlest bit of humidity. To say its a challenging head of hair is an understatement!
I think I am an in-between. I stick with what I know because I don’t know all that is out there, but I am willing to experiment! 🙂

Definitely an experimenter!!!! I get bored of the same thing all the time. However, I do have a few products that I always keep on hand because I know they work.
I am definitely an experimentor! I do tend to use the same products a lot because they work best until I am able to find something better. A lot of time I am guided by scent.
Definitely an experimenter – it’s fun!
Thank you.

I’d love to be an “experimenter” but I don’t like to spend money…so I actually don’t use (m)any hair products! Or make up! Besides my shampoo & conditioner, the only product I’ve purchased in the past 4 years was a can of dry shampoo…which I love! 🙂

Witch stinks, b/c I love BIG hair, but the curls inevitably fall out within an hour….I’ve just switched shampoo to Schwarzkopf shampoo (sulfate free) and conditioner….I am not sure how much I like it yet…but I will see it through. Might have to switch back to KMS. Any suggestions?
