Not Your Mother's Way to Grow Long and Strong Shampoo is made with essential vitamins, herbs and bio-active extracts. It's a salon formula that will have your hair stronger, healthier and in turn longer. It's also a sulfate free shampoo. Claims you'll get longer hair faster, strengthens hair, anti breakage formula. Conditioner claims it will strengthen, moisturize and give your hair a silky texture. Intense moisturizing for all hair types. Says it can be used for chemically treated hair as well.I think it's really cute that they added on the bottler that Grow Long and Strong was for already existing hair, that it did not grow new hair.
I think this shampoo and conditioner smells amazing, makes me think of strawberries! I feel like this shampoo and conditioner has definitely improved the quality of my hair. I think my hair looks and feels so much more healthier. I think I have way less breakage as well. Both the shampoo and conditioner say to massage into your scalp for 2-3 minutes. I did this with both the first time I used them, but I felt like it took too much time, so for the rest of the time that I've been using these products, I just lathered up the shampoo real good, rinsed, then applied the conditioner on my hair and leave it in while I finish with my shower routine, then I'll rinse it out well. The shampoo and conditioner are both a thicker consistency than any other I've used before. The conditioner though is the thickest conditioner that I've ever seen.
I've never used a sulfate free shampoo before because I've heard they do not lather like regular shampoos, and I like my shampoo to be very sudsy, otherwise I feel like it's not getting my hair clean. I was very please that this shampoo had a very good sudsy lather to it even though it is sulfate free.
Final Thoughts: I really like this shampoo and conditioner and I may make it my new go to shampoo and conditioner. At Walmart this retails for $4.97 each for a 8oz bottle. The cost is a little higher at places like CVS, which kind of puts me off, but I feel like the few extra dollars I would be spending on this product would be worth it in the long run for the health of my hair.

I want to try this but I'm not sure if this is right for my hair, it's extremely damaged from being bleached.
ReplyDeleteI'm not an expert by any means, but I think it would be okay, it is a gentle cleaning shampoo.

DeleteInteresting! I haven't seen this on the shelf at my local Walmart but I suppose I could order it online. I love the sulfate-free shampoos--my hair feels so much healthier from using them, even if they are a bit more expensive.
ReplyDeleteYou can also find Not Your Mother's products at CVS, but they are a tad more expensive. I agree, my hair feels much more healthier :)
