100% Vegan, cruelty-free, paraben free, etc.
I feel like this company buried the lede a bit here, no mention is made of several philosophies they adhere to in the creation of these products, you have to go to their website to see that these are all 100% vegan. Everything I've seen suggests that this is actually an American company, not some shell company selling Chinese products out of some guy's garage in Cleveland. The address is in Boca Raton, the website was registered here in the states, and shipping (when bought direct) is domestic only. If true, all of this is a big plus to me.Yeah, the other reviewers are right, the conditioner smells a little weird. They might be overstating it a bit, but I agree that there's a hint of wet dog smell in there, maybe more like a plasticky smell. Hard to say. It fades, but it is a bit unfortunate that it masks the smell of the shampoo, which is actually quite nice.I'd recommend checking out the rest of their lineup if vegan shampoos are something you look for, or if you're interested in supporting US-based businesses. This conditioner might not smell as great as the shampoo, but who knows what their other scents are like. And honestly, even with this one I got over it pretty quick,

Hydrating!
This shampoo/conditioner combo has a rich formula that cleanses and conditions my hair to leave it soft and smooth.The shampoo lathers nicely and rinses easily to leave my hair feeling clean but not stripped of moisture.I have thick curly hair and I only detangle in the shower with lots of conditioner in my hair, so conditioner is the more important step for me. This conditioner has a good amount of slip to make detangling easy. The formula is pretty thick and rich. It didn’t feel heavy on my textured hair but it might if you have thin or really straight hair.The scent is a sweet coconut smell. It isn’t too strong (in my opinion) but is pleasant and leaves a hint of coconut smell behind in your hair.Overall these are solid shampoo/conditioner products and I will definitely be using the whole bottle.

Smells great
I love the way this shampoo and conditioner set smells. My hair definitely feels clean after using the shampoo without feeling stripped of moisture. Sadly, my hair seems too dry/over-processed to do much, but I do love the scent. The shampoo lathers very well, and the conditioner works easily into my strands.

Good
I liked the scent of it and how lightweight it feels on. It’s a good value for both of them and the bottle has a lot of product

Love the shampoo
However the conditioner is thick and sticky like took forever to rinse out of my fine hair. I could mix this 1 part conditioner to 3 parts water and it would still be too thick and sticky.

Smell is amazing!!
This shampoo and conditioner duo has been a wonderful addition to my hair care routine. The shampoo cleanses thoroughly without stripping moisture, leaving my hair feeling refreshed and revitalized. The conditioner complements it perfectly by providing just the right amount of hydration and detangling, which makes my hair easy to manage. Together, they leave my hair looking shiny and feeling soft, and they work well for both oily and dry scalp types, making them a versatile choice for diverse hair needs.

Large bottles
Set of very large shampoo and conditioner.Great value pour the price, considering the size.I'm careful to buy shampoos and conditioners without any harmful products.These are 100% vegan, without paraben or sodium chlorine and are formulated to care for colored treated hair.They have a great coconut scent and made my hair very soft. I recommend them.

In the trash
The smell is awful. Like, it smells so bad I was gagging in the shower and had to rewash my hair with a different shampoo to try to get rid of the smell. The shampoo is a little funky, but the conditioner is intolerable. As such, I'm hanging on to the shampoo to try to hide the smell with better conditioners, but the conditioner went straight into the trash.They don't smell like much when they're in the bottle, but the second it hits your hair, the smell becomes like a toxic cloud. It is difficult to describe the scent, but it's some combination of sunscreen, wet dog, and lice treatment. I asked my husband to describe the smell and he said "it's like when the dog is in the bathtub but I haven't washed out his flea shampoo yet." So. Yeah. If you want to smell like a flea ridden wet dog, this is for you. Otherwise, find something else.I loved that these came in such big bottles, but was disappointed that they didn't come with pump tops. At this size, they're just too bulky and awkward to use when everything is wet. I didn't drop them, but i had to aggressively shake the conditioner to get it to the top so I could squeeze it out, and I could definitely see myself accidentally slamming this thing down onto the ground.I actually liked how the shampoo performed, though. I felt like my hair was clean, but it didn't take out too much of my semi-permanent hair dye, which I really appreciated. My hair did feel smooth and soft after using the conditioner, but the smell was so bad I had to rewash, so the performance is a moot point.I can't recommend this product in it's current formulation. The pump is really a minor grievance and if I was otherwise happy with this, it would still have gotten full stars. But the smell...I just cannot get past. It's vile. If something changes and the smell improves, this would be a 4 or 5 star product, but as it is at the time of my review, it's a 2.
