Smells good, looks natural and enriching - BUT it legit does not do anything...there's nothing too special in the ingredients either, at least there's nothing that has been researched and shown has an effect on repairing hair. There's some olive oil, but it's pretty down on the ingredient list.

It has a very watery consistency, which kind of freaked me out (but I guess it's the oils.) It foams a weird amount as well - I usually like some foam, but this one felt like it was drying my already damaged hair out.

Expensive for a shampoo that I would say is pretty much Herbal Essences....a normal shampoo with a nicer scent. Wouldn't buy again, kind of a waste.

I bought this when I wrecked my hair with bleach. It didn't really make a difference. I used Aussie 3Min Miracle instead- amazing!
It is ok as a normal shampoo but not anything special for damaged hair.

No love! Looks like I'm the lone voice of dissent here, but this stuff made my hair feel greasy and nasty less than 24 hours after I washed it. I have oily roots and dry\damaged ends, so finding a workable shampoo is always a challenge. I normally wash my hair every other day, but when I tried using Rehab, my hair immediately looked like it normally does after day 2. Bottom line is, not only did the shampoo NOT get my hair clean, it made it feel and look dirtier than it already was. Not impressed. It also smelled pretty gross, which is worth putting up with when the product rocks, but not so much when the product stinks in its own right.

Only reason it gets 2 lippies instead of 1 is because I've found it makes a great face wash. I have oily, acne-prone skin, and something about this product (perhaps the oils in the product cutting the oil in my skin?) makes my skin feel wonderful and seems to ward off the oil for a bit after I wash. Bonus point for the secret redeeming quality, but it doesn't change the fact that this sucks as a shampoo, and it reeks to high heaven.

I love Lush in general and this is probably one of my favorite products (along with Happy Hippy shower gel and Angels on bare skin cleansing exfoliator).
I used to use the I love Juicy shampoo but after being on holiday, swimming in salt water, I need something more moisturizing. This is just that. It left my hair feeling clean, soft and healthy. The olive oil in it made my hair so shiny and it smells nice too.
I alternate between this and I love juicy. I also use the Veganese conditioner.

I work at a major amusement park as a costumed character. (No I'm not going to divulge which park.) I walk around as a big furry animal all day in the hot summer sun. Which means I sweat. A lot. My hair is often really gross by the end of the day. This shampoo is the best I have found for cutting through all that grime and making my hair soft and shiny.This stuff even works better than my Origins No Deposit clarifying shampoo for cutting through build-up. I also love the sharp smell of it. I've found it's best to shake it up first so all the ingredients combine. It tends to separate. It's not going bad, it's just the way this shampoo works. Sure it's a bit expensive. But for the results I will definitely be re-purchasing.

Brilliant shampoo.
I use it every day with American Cream conditioner & my hair looks the best it ever has. I wasn't sure about the smell at first but it grew on me & I love it now - it's really good for waking you up on a morning!

I have been using this with the Retread conditioner. I really love the fresh smell of the shampoo. I don't really like that while my hair is wet Rehab leave my hair kind of squeaky clean. Once my hair is dry it is so much softer and shinier than before.

I think it would be nice if it were a little cheaper. Since it gives me results and also since a little goes a long way, I will still dish out what ever it costs for the Rehab shampoo.

One of the best shampoos I have ever used! Made hair really strong and still soft. Smelled so good! The only bad thing is that it's pretty expensive and it wasn't friendly to my hairdye.

When I buy this shampoo I buy it in the biggest size available. It's more expensive than your average shampoos out there but you get your money's worth.
Why?
It lasts a loooong time
It keeps my hair looking and feeling healthy
It's made with ingredients other that just chemicals (fresh pineapple, fresh juice from mangoes and kiwi)
It has so many lovely oils in it like rosemary, peppermint and jojoba (and sum more I can't remember)
It lathers up soo much; then when i rinse it out my hair's squeaky clean
I think if you don;t like strong smells the you would't love using this shampoo but other than that i cant think of anything bad to say about this!

My hair & scalp feels super clean every time I use this. I don't use this often only because it's strips the color from my colored hair. I only use this when I feel like there is product buildup in my hair.

My favourite shampoo at the moment. In combination with American Cream conditioner. Rehab just does everything a decent shampoo should do: cleanse, makes your hair soft and shiny, doesn't leave it greasy after 24 hours and is mild so it doesn't irritates the skin. Also the scent is not overwhelming, which is good for someone like me who is quite neutral on scented body products.

During my last backpacking trip, I've used this every day for a month, and my hair has never looked better.

This is one of my 2 every-day HG shampoos (the other is LUSH's I Love Juicy). I find that the thin texture works well with my ultra-fine hair and that it leaves my hair soft without making it greasy or weighing it down.

It has a semi-medicinal minty smell to it that takes some getting used to and can be a bit hard to get on your head without sloshing some onto the shower floor, but it makes heaps of lather and rinses out easily. It also needs to be shaken vigorously before application since it tends to separate into layers in between usages, but that takes only a few seconds.

I do have to say that the pricing on LUSH's shampoos are getting ridiculous, and Rehab was one of the more expensive ones to begin with. If it weren't for the fact that I try to use natural, silicone-free hair care products whenever possible and love Rehab, I'd have moved on to something cheaper by now. Both my husband and I use both Rehab and I Love Juicy regularly and we go through maybe a large (16.9 oz) bottle of Rehab every month to month and a half, so it does last longer than you might think, especially when you factor in his super thick, dense hair (and his habit of using a *lot* of shampoo on it), so it's not budget breaking, but it does bother me that the price was already steep years ago and has been going up steadily since I've been buying and using it.

It's pricy, and the silly caps on the bottles shatter when I knock them over in the shower. Still it's a huge HG for me - it give the perfect balace of hydrating and texturizing. It leaves my hair soft and bouncy, and keeps the frizzes down in the worst of winter. Great stuff, to me, deserving of the rep it gets.

Excellent shampoo. The texture is a little on the watery side, which takes some getting used to (think thick juice), but a splash in the palm is all you need to lather up (in my case) a head of very thick shoulder-length hair. I tend to go for moisturizing shampoos/conditioners and was worried that this would be too drying, since it's billed as a clarifying shampoo -- happily, however, it leaves my Asian hair soft, clean, and shiny. Imparts a nice tingle to the scalp during washing too. I personally love the smell (herbal and minty, with a splash of fresh-squeezed fruit juice), but it seems like it would be a love/hate sort of thing -- go smell it first at a Lush store if you have the chance!

My only quibble is with the price. A VERY small bottle (as in, sampler small -- 3.3 fl. oz.) runs $12.45. A medium bottle, which is more of a normal volume of shampoo (8.4 fl. oz.), runs $22.35. And the large bottle (which, admittedly, is pretty large at 16.9 fl. oz.) runs $39.95. As I mentioned above, a little does go a long way -- I figure I can probably get about twenty washes out of the 3.3 fl. oz. bottle. But it's still on the expensive side.

All things considered, I would buy again.

Rehab is a very good shampoo.

I'm not too keen on the Lush shampoo bars, as they make my scalp oily, but this stuff and Big are truely great.

My hair feels strong and healthy after I use Rehab an you don't get that silicone induced slickness, as with Pantene or something other.

I know I put something healthy on my scalp and my hair even grows better. As a conditioner, I love Jungle or Veganese.

I hope they make a matching conditioner to go with Rehab.

WAU i love this junk. it smells awesome, doesn't do anything weird to my hair, and it just feels so nice and clean when i'm done! i try to give my bleached hair some attention once in a while and i find this a lovely reset after nights involving handfuls of gels, pomades, and bottles of hairspray. i don't really have a lot of concrete reasoning but i really adore this shampoo.

I took this shampoo for granted until I ran out. I bought a big bottle of it a couple of years ago and it seemed to last forever, it would take the tiniest bit for me to have tons and tons of suds. I used this shampoo about once a week as a sort of clarifier. It would leave my naturally curly hair very bouncy and full of body. The rest of the time I like to use a Lush shampoo bar. I am definitely purchasing another bottle of this, only this time I will buy a small bottle since the first bottle lasted so long. A huge thumbs up from me.

I really like this shampoo! It smells amazing and it really cleans my hair. I'll definitely repurchase this now that I'm running low. I wish LUSH made a solid rehab shampoo (hint hint!)
