I love, love, love this stuff!! The shampoo and conditioner both are FABULOUS! I have very coarse, naturally curly, color treated hair. My hair has never felt so soft! I use mousse and Nexxus Artistic Design Lotion, which gives my hair a bit of crunch, however this shampoo and conditioner have really made a difference. The sulfate free is what got me and now I am hooked! The smell others talked about, I am a vanilla freak and have only found it to be wonderful. Once you dry your hair the smell is pretty much gone unless you use no other products in your hair. At $6.99 each, the price isn't a bargain, but certainly not what you would pay for a salon item, yet this is absolutely worth every dime!

I hate to say this, but this was terrible on my hair. This made my hair rough, dry, straw-like and completely unmanageable, albeit heavenly-smelling, even though I used the conditioner religiously. I wanted SO much to like this product, but it seemed to actively damage my otherwise healthy hair. I can't use this anymore. :(

This awesome smelling shampoo will leave fine, thick hair like mine smooth and shiny without being greasy at the end of the day. this shampoo also does not strip your hair, plus its organic. cant complain about this product at all.

I have the Coconut Milk shampoo/conditioner and really liked that, so I decided to try out the vanilla since it had gotten even better reviews. It smells great and lathers beautifully. Rinses nice and clean, and never makes my scalp itchy or dry thanks to the lack of nasty sulfates. My hair is super soft and shiny when I use this with NO flyaways or frizz, even on rainy days! I have gotten several compliments from people to the effect of "wow your hair is SO shiny!". Overall, I love it! The bottle could be a little easier to squeeze product out of, but that's a minor gripe considering what's inside.

I absolutely love this stuff,, it has saved my *hairs life*. I was using Artec smoothing shampoo until suddenly Loreal bought it and it no longer worked good. Also I won't use their products first and foremost because of their animal testing. Additionally, one time i was using their loreal vive and my hair became very weak. Artec was fabulous, and this Vanilla Silk has brought my hair back to life. Its bouncing and alive again.
Also they do not test on animals. I am finding companies that care about animals also care about humans with the ingredients they use.

I was very disappointed in this shampoo. It left my hair feeling stripped and fragile even though it is sulfate-free. The smell is yummy, though!! I returned it to the store.

I saw this product at the drugstore and was tempted to buy, but I thought that SGD13.95 per bottle was a bit steep. I don't use salon shampoos so you can imagine I thought this was expensive. My friend gave me the conditioner because it didn't work for her, but I thought that it really made my hair softer and smoother, so I went out and bought the shampoo anyway. My hair is the bane of my existence - my scalp can get greasy easily and my hair is fine, so I look like Snape on a bad day - but I like how this line makes my hair weighty and glossy without being greasy. I like what it does to my hair, but I think my scalp is feeling a little dry and itchy. I may need to alternate this with something for my scalp, but this is definitely a good buy. A word of caution: I like the scent of vanilla, but the smell is strong enough to make me gag if I shower on an empty stomach.

Cute packaging, lovely vanilla smell, and no sulfates =). I use this every other day, using a little bit of shampoo and the roots and then loading the conditioner on the lower parts of my hair to the roots. My hair has become a lot smoother softer, and shinier. The price is pretty good too at around $6 something per bottle. Would buy this again!

I use the Vanilla Silk shampoo and conditioner on a regular basis for my curly frizzy hair. I love it!! When I do my hair curly, I use this line because the shampoo doesn't dry my hair out, I use a small amount and gently wash for 1 minute. I tend not to scrub too hard, otherwise I lose my curl pattern. Then I put on the silky conditioner, squish it through my hair and leave it on for AT LEAST 5 minutes. I don't comb my hair, I use my fingers gently to comb thru the conditioner. then after I rinse, my curls are silky and bouncy. I don't use this line every day, sometimes I need to use a normal shampoo to wash out all my product build up, but other than that I recommend this line for dry frizzy hair!!

This is an ok shampoo. Fine, but nothing special, unless using a sulfate free shampoo is really important to you. If that is the case, this is a sulfate free option that is reasonably priced and widely available. I'm a bit surprised that a reviewer below said this is hard to find. Nearly every store in my area carries this line, including Wal Mart, Target, CVS and Walgreens. Anyway, like every sulfate free shampoo I've tried, this doesn't lather a lot, though I did think the amount of lather was above average compared to other shampoos of this type. It is heavily scented, and it's a very foody vanilla, so definitely avoid this product if that type of scent makes you gag. One thing that annoys me about this brand is that the name and marketing suggest that the products are organic. As far as I can tell, the only organic ingredient in this product is a bit of organic vanilla bean oil. IMO, any product that suggests it is organic ought to have a significant percentage of organic ingredients. Rant over. All in all, if you want a sulfate free shampoo, this is probably one of the better ones available.

I Looooove this shampoo and conditioner, however it's extremely hard to find. I have extremely dry, frizzy, curly, damaged hair and this is the only shampoo I have ever found that makes my hair feel smooth and healthy...plus I love the smell and how it stays with you all day! Recently I dyed my hair black, then I stripped it twice, and then bleached it....by all means my hair should have been spongy and falling out in clumps. I later went to a hair dresser, and she was shocked at how strong my hair still was after all the abuse...she asked me what shampoo and conditioner I had been using, and I told her all about this stuff! I don't even have to deep condition once week either! Best stuff ever!!!

I love this shampoo! It cleans my hair well, and my hair still feels soft afterwards, and does not weigh my hair down. I was using clarifying shampoo (way too often), but I can cut back on it usinng this shampoo. I love everything about it!

As a shampoo I found this so-so. Does not seem like it does a good job of cleaning my hair. The scent is pretty overwhelming. I liken it to Carnation Instant Breakfast french vanilla. I do not find the scent to linger, but do not care for it.

I think that this works just as well as the coconut version. Both make your hair look and feel soft and well cared for, with a silkiness that just can't be topped. I like all the Organix shamps so far, but I think the coconut milk one is my favorite. Good stuff!

This smells really good! I really purchase it because it is sulfate free. I like the fact that even though it is sulfate free, it still lathers. It cleans my hair very well. I really like the Coconut Milk shampoo and conditioner and the Shea Butter conditioner as well.

I have curly/wavy dryish shoulder length hair. I've been rotating davines love shampoo, head and shoulders, and nexxus therappe. Lately my scalp has been dry yet extremely greasy at the same time. I picked this up thinking maybe it was the sulfates in the other shampoos, and it has definately helped with the greasies. It also makes my hair feel very clean but not stripped, and soft as well. I may try other products from organix.

I agree with the previous poster: This shampoo makes me happy when I use it, because the smell is so delicious! I WISH it lingered, but it really doesn't for me, and I have "layered" using the conditioner and blow dryer treatment as well.

This shampoo foams up fabulously, which is great coming from a sulfate-free product. I too have used the Shea Butter version, and my hair seems really silky since I have been using them. The next time there is a good sale on these I am going to try the mandarin version for curly hair.

I am not in love with the packaging, though. I don't like the shape of the bottles to grab in the slick shower. I'd suggest a narrower cylindrical shape and an press-flip top. I can see these products being attractive in opaque bottles similar to the Hempz products.

Definitely give these products a try!

PLEASE LADIES!!!!! Buy this product. I am in fear that it will become discontinued. I'm so in love with this shampoo I could cry. The smell, while it fades through out the day, is so yummy. It makes me so happy when I wash my hair in the morning. YUM.

The other plus about this shampoo, is that it is an inexpensive SULFATE FREE shampoo that has not faded my hair color what-so-ever. It's so much cheaper than the other salon name sulfate free shampoos (Pureology, Sexy hair concepts). I have tried the Shea Butter one, and I liked that too but absolutely nothing compares to the texture and smell of Vanilla Silk. It also makes my hair soft and sexy throughout the day.
