I bought the shampoo for myself, as I have normal hair and like the idea of no nasties in their products. Although it doesn't lather like normal shampoo, it does not hurt if you get it in your eyes, and it leaves my hair soft and manageable, - when used with the massage brush. (I use the Detangle spray like a conditioner, spray it on, massage it through, leave it on whilst I shower, then rinse off. I've tried leaving the spray on, but it left my hair lank with a sticky feel. Rinsed out it works great!).
