After reading the great reviews here, and the fact that I am loving Leonor Greyl products I decided to get this. I'm always looking for a nice mild shampoo that will help give volume to my medium/fine oily scalp/normal ends hair. I am kinda on the fence about how I feel about this shampoo. I'm used to low-sudsing shampoos, but this is literally like water. The first time I used this I spilled a bunch of it trying to get it on my hand. I wish the packaging was a little different...instead of the traditional lid, i wish it had a squirt type top so I can just apply directly to my hair and have some control over how much comes out. Ah well. I may end up transferring containers. At any rate, it definitely does a good job cleaning while still being mild and i absolutely LOVE the smell. So yummy!! I am not sure if I would re purchase as it is incredibly pricey for such a small amount and I feel like because it's so watery it's too easy to waste a bunch on accident. There are a lot of other great low suds shampoos out there that are easier to use such as CTonics. *****UPDATE****** I found the perfect bottle to transfer this product into...my old, clean contact lens solution bottle. With this new packaging, I can squirt the exact desired amount into my hand without wasting product as I did before because too much product came out. Perfect! I still think this is a rather pricey product though, not sure I'd re-purchase based on the price alone.

This shampoo is really gentle to your hair and scalp. I used to have an irritated scalp before i bought this shampoo and another one of Leonor Greyl with propolis. alternating them produced wonderful results! Lait lavant a la banane does not foam a lot, but it makes the hair very clean. I have long normal/thin hair and i have to apply it twice to achieve this effect and the second time i leave it on for 2 minutes, but the delicious smell of the shampoo makes me really happy to apply it twice in the morning. i will definitely repurchase it

This must be one of gentlest shampoos I've every used, maybe even The Gentlest. First of all, it liquid as water, more like diluted milk from the pale off-white color, so it's a bit tricky to work it into hair and it doesn't create foam, so it's even harder to work with it. I aways do a double wash, first the middle and the ends, rinse, then the scalp and work the lengths one more time, gets hair just as clean as any salon shampoo (squeaky clean actually), but it's way gentler to hair and scalp. Conditioning is mandatory (LG experts say that), otherwise hair gets frizzy and dull. So, if you get irritated by everything else or need an extra gentle shampoo for everyday use or babies, this shampoo could help you, but the application technique is difficult. I do love the dried banana scent that is has. After washing my hair I can still smell it through every conditioner. :)
