I got this product on sale at CVS on top of that I had CVS beauty bucks and manufracture coupons for both the shampoo and conditioner. I got the two largest bottles they sell.

In grade school-middle school Pantene always made my hair fall out (not crazy but more than its suppose to) So during highschool I switched to something else.

This particular formula did not give me this problem, HOWEVER, it gave me rash patches and scabs on my head.... Usually a bottle this size would last me about 7 months, I've had this product for well close to two years. Not because its so big... but because I am afraid of it. This rash didnt start happening until 4-5 months into using this product. But not only i had this on my head, I would sometime get it on my back.

There was a time I just stop using both for 2 months, and all my problems went away, but just sitting two bottles taking up space I started to use it again, and the problems came back.

After trial and error, I learned that it wasnt both shampoo & conditioner that was giving me this problem... It was just the shampoo, the condictioner is fine.

However this product causes product build up like crazy. My head is always greasy, and it stinks up quickly.

Great product...!
I love the scent and extremely helping my hair when I combined it with the conditioner.
Many good compliments I received after using this one.
It smells really good.
Definitely I will use it like forever.

I got this on sale- I would like to mention that before anything. I would of never payed this much for a hair product on the shelf.
This stuff smells AMAZING and leaves my hair AMAZING. I'm an admitted environment junky and love the plant bottle.
The product itself is fine. I have used other Pantene products and they have WRECKED my hair. This one though, was way different. I'm not sure if the natural formula made the difference, but I would use this one again before other Pantene products.

I would buy this again at its sale price, but at full price (unless your used to paying $7-$10 for a bottle of shampoo, then all mean go for it) i'd have to pass.

Let me start off by saying this is one of the worst hair products I have ever used. Pantene is horribleeeeeeee.It dried out my hair and left a lot of breakage..Highly don't recommend it. It's full of silicones (obviously because it's from the drugstore) and it left my scalp very dry. The only good thing about this product is the smell.

I wrote a review for this on Feb 23, 2010 a couple weeks after I bought it. Two years later I still love it. Before using this I would wash my hair every day, and for the last two years I've I washed it every three days or so (sometimes four, eek), and it doesn't get greasy. This is really the only shampoo (drugstore or otherwise) that can do that for my hair. I'll keep repurchasing.
Other than this shampoo/conditioner, I have not been a fan of pantene. I recommend giving this one a shot.



My original review from two years ago:
I tried this on a whim, and really like it. I have long (several inches past my shoulders) semi-fine hair. One of my biggest problems with shampoo in general is feeling like I have to wash it every day because my scalp starts to look greasy. Well, I've found that I can go three days without washing my hair before it actually starts to look like I need to wash it. Not at all greasy. Amazing.
It makes my hair soft to the touch, shiny, and smooth without looking flat. I am very happy with this product.
I have heard that Pantene causes buildup over time, so I am thinking of getting a clarifying shampoo to use maybe once a week just in case.
I have tons of different shampoos/conditioners in my shower but since I bought this about 5 or 6 weeks ago I haven't once reached for anything else.

If you want silky strands for hair this product is worth giving a try because it made mine unbelievable soft to the touch.

Pretty much just my usual conditioner. Cleans well and leaves my hair shiny and smooth. To me it is just ok, nothing too special. It smells pretty nice, and is creamy. I find that I need to leave it in for a long time for it to be effective, or else I need to use it several times in 1 wash.

I finally found a Pantene product that I can like. To be honest, I'm not much of Pantene fan because their shampoo tends to make my hair fall out, but this one doesn't. Perhaps this is their only line that has more natural ingredients in it that my hair can tolerate. The shampoo has a nice lather to it and rinses clean. My hair now feels stronger after a couple use. Overall, it's a pretty good product.

Not a very good product, in my opinion. It left a coat of wax of my hair, making it greasy and not very easy to style. I think Pantene is a really bad hair compagny, I'd rather stick to Aussie.

I HATE this product! This was the worst shampoo I EVER purchased! It completely dried out my hair and left it like a birds nest! I could barely comb through my hair! If you have medium thick, wavy/curly hair this product is not for you! My mom bought this shampoo for me and I was exited to use i because it said it had aloe vera so I thought it would do my hair wonders but I was absolutely wrong! I gave it to my sister and she loved it but I HATE IT!!!!

Great shampoo, it makes my hair silky soft and a healthy glow. Sometimes my hair can feel a little oily or dry but whenever I use this, it leaves my hair really nice and smells good too.

Not amazing, not horrible. I bought this product because I thought that perhaps it would be a little lighter than regular Pantene Pro-V shampoos, but it seems as though it's exactly the same. Comparing this to other Pantene products is futile... they're all the same. Smells good though.

Awesome shampoo & conditioner! I'm a little surprised at the negative reveiws of this shamp/cond. Looooove this line, it's my favorite. It smells amazing, leaves hair smooth and silky feeling, lathers great, rinses clean. I color and flat iron my hair and this stuff rocks. I'm currently using the Frizzy to Smooth version that I started using this summer after using the Nature Fusion "smooth vitality" and falling in love with it. This line is by far my fave and I'm switching back to the Smooth Vitality line as soon as I'm done with the Pantene that's in my shower. It doesn't at all make my hair oily and I've had horrible luck with Garnier in that department. Pantene is the best and this is my fave line. Definitely worth a try! And helloooo, it has Cassia in it which is a super expensive salon treatment, this makes my hair look and feel so healthy and the shine is fantastic! Love it, so happy I tried it!

Pro's: nice scent, cheap.
Con's: made my hair dry, my hair seemed to get greasy after using it, made my hair flat.

This did horrible things to my hair! It made it really dry, even when I used a conditioner afterwards. It made my hair really flat and hard to style. My hair got so greasy after just one day of using this! It didn't make my hair shiny or smooth either. My hair didn't even feel smooth when I was using it in the shower when I was in the shower.

It's cheap enough to try I suppose though.

For some reason, Pantene's clear shampoos just don't work for me. I'm not sure why, but they make my hair feel dry and weird and, when dry, frizzy. This was just a bad idea...I thought it would be a creamy shampoo bc of the opaque bottle, but I was ever so wrong about that...I won't buy this again.

This is the first pantene product that has done well for my hair. Thank goodness, it goes on great and my hair feels healthy and has shine to it. The smell of the shampoo is great too, love it

I have gone through two bottles of this shampoo. I really like it. I was reluctant to use it I tend to steer clear of "smothing" shampoos because they are too greasy. Not the case with this at all. My hair felt really clean but not squeaky. The smell is nice. Its different than other Pantene products because it doesn't have that vitamin scent. The smell does not last though which does not bother me. I wash my hair every single day (bad I know) so I can't say how this performs when you skip a shampoo. I didn't experience any build up. But I did use a Tresemme shampoo about once every week and a half while using Nature Fusion.

I used half the bottle and just couldnt use it anymore. It made my normally very voluminous fine hair flat and matte. It almost looked as if I had washed my hair in dish water. I just really wasnt impressed. I normally like pantene products but this just didnt act like pantene. I really think they are beginning to roll out sub quality new products working off the good name of pantene just to make a few bucks off the 'new'. I say that because if they actually tested this stuff and it were really they next great thing like they say, it would work!!
