Aunt Jackie's Curls & Coils Oh So Clean! Moisturizing & Softening Shampoo Review

I'm going to start of this review by saying that I'm sick and tired of products making empty promises.  Where is that product that actually does what it says that it will do? This is probably the third shampoo that I've tried that just plain and simply strips my hair, leaves it dangled and doesn't clean my scalp. I literally had to rinse and lather 3 times to clean my scalp. Ironically, this shampoo had so much writing on the bottle and it has such an attractive presentation which made this product even more disappointing.

I will say that this product did reduce shrinkage. I was hard pressed to find a curl in my hair. This shampoo DID NOT "soften [my] hair, control frizz, eliminate knotting, [or] restore a healthy moisture balance". It says that it will "remove all kinds of build-up, while replenishing hair with essential oils and nutrients". It did remove build-up from my hair but for some reason my scalp just didn't feel clean. This product smells great. It smells like passion fruit and pineapples. My sister says it smells like a green life-saver.

The bottle states that it is sulfate-free, paraben-free, mineral oil and petrolatum free. My guess is that even though this product is sulfate- free, the Sodium (C-14-16) Olefia Sulfonate is actually still pretty harsh. This product is meant for "chronically dry hair" and is supposed to be "deep moisturizing". I should have known something was up when I saw this on a shampoo bottle. I do have very dry hair and this just made things worse. I'm going to have to use a rinse out conditioner and then use a deep conditioner. Hopefully, this will help.

I had actually gone to the store to purchase The Hairepair Invigorating Shampoo by ORS but they didn't have any. I didn't want to wait until Monday because I'm doing a protective style on my hair for the next two weeks. Today is the only time that I have to focus on my hair. I saw this product on the shelf was impressed by the claims and purchased.

Maybe sulfate-free just isn't for me. If one of my readers would like to purchase it off of me or do a product swap I'm here for it. I do have another product that I can throw in the box.

I'm going to give this :
1 ☆ out of 5 stars mainly because of the packaging and scent of the product. This is not a repurchase.

My Rating System
1 ☆ = poor, never purchase again, does not do what it promises, makes my hair worse.
2 ☆☆
3 ☆☆☆ = average, on the fence about trying again. An okay product.
4 ☆☆☆☆
5 ☆☆☆☆☆ = amazing, definite repurchase, product does what it says it will do

I'm going to add 1/2's to the ratings as I deem necessary.

Thank you for reading this review. I did purchase this product with my own money and I do hope to hear from you all on your experiences with Aunt Jackie's Products.
