I purchased the WEN Apple Cleansing/Conditioner for my granddaughter. Is this actually a Shampoo/Conditioner? Are the results immediate?

Thanks for the response to my question above. This eases my mind knowing that it can be used for younger children. My granddaughter is 1 year old and her hair is very thick and coarse. This information has been very informative. Thank you

Yes, this is called cleansing conditioner. What it means is that shampoo and conditioner in one, well sort of. The consistency is more like conditioner than the shampoo. And it won't lather up like a conventional shampoo. However, the result with my 9 years old boy's hair was apparent. After switching from Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo to this wen kids product, his coarse hair became very soft and silky. You can use it once in two days. It's sufficient as the direction suggests, unless he gets too sweaty in the summer time, pool, etc... My 8 years old boy uses it too. And I myself use adult's wen variety of products such as pomegranate, bamboo, 6 13, aloe, tea tree, lavender, Almond, you name it.

Yes, it does the job of shampoo & conditioner. I wash my daughter's hair every day so, for her, I put it in then rinse it out. When I use WEN on my hair I leave it in while I shower and rinse it out at the end.I hope you love the product as much as I do.

It's basically just an extra conditioning treatment. I found my hair is better with just the wen as the 613 weighs my hair down and if not rinsed real well is slightly greasy. My hair is fine though and naturally oily. However, my sister's hair is thicker so it makes her hair smooth and shiny.

It is true. My daughter would never use hair products that have those ingredients. She has thick super curly hair and these products are the only ones she has used for the past 2 years. Her hair is super healthy. The shampoo does not lather at all.

This product does not work like shampoos do. It will not lather but it will clean your hair, thus the description Cleansing Conditioner.

First.. I just looked at the Wen prices on Amazon and they are selling 16oz. bottles for ~$30 dollars. This product is TWO 32oz. bottles for ~$60 (32oz shampoo AND 32 oz conditioner), it is half the price of Wen. I never thought the zero-lather No-Poo shampoo was supposed to be hydrating, I was always told it just didn't strip your scalp of essential oils (like Wen claims). If you do have very dehydrated hair then the conditioner does a great job.. and like another responder I also leave the conditioner in as a leave in. I also like that the conditioner does not have any dimethicone in it. Apparently there isn't any "harmful side effects" of dimethicone (silicone) but I noticed that conditioners with dimethicone (almost every conditioner you can buy) make my hair shiny but don't hydrate my hair and leave it dry. The devacurl conditioner actually hydrates my hair and my dry ends don't feel as damaged, plus my hair is still shiny. But maybe this is just me and my hair type - I have wavy, thick, dark brown hair. Keep in mind this shampoo-conditioner set was created for curly hair, which tends to dry out more easily than straight hair because of it's structure. I've never tried Wen but looking at the ingredients makes me stay away - EDTA and dimethicone are some things among many other ingredients that I try to keep out of my personal care products, but again, that's just my own opinion.

This product is a cleanser and conditioner. It replaces shampoo and conditioner. It cleans hair without stripping moisture and leaves it feeling very soft and tangle free.

It is a treatment, not shampoo or conditioner. It does not lather like shampoo, but is very thick like a paste. (ok, maybe not the best description though) However, I put it on after shampooing and let it stay on my hair for a few minutes like a conditioner. I gently rub into my scalp and feel the tingling. Also, the product in the smaller tube seems thicker than the larger bottle. Although more expensive per ounce, I will buy the smaller tube in the future.

Yes it's a cleansing conditioner. One step. After I used it a few days my hair felt dull and limp.. If your hair does this Believe it or not use more the next time. It works.

Yes it is. It's from their original label but it is Shea Moisture, I confirmed it before I purchased it. The conditioner is thick and moisturizes and softens the hair. I hope this helps.

Hi no it's not! It's just a regular conditioner. However, it makes your hair feel soft and smooth. I love it!

In their old formula (which they still had not that long ago), there was no fragrance at all. However, this new bottle that you see pictured here apparently came with a new formula and it does have a very slight apple fragrance (in my opinion). The company will tell you that nothing has changed with the formula, however, I have multiple chemical sensitivities and can pick up on very tiny changes that maybe most of the population would not notice. The new formula also lathers more easily, so something definitely changed. However, I still do use the shampoo. After you rinse, it does not leave a fragrance on you, but you do smell it a little while you're lathering up. I can't use their conditioner anymore. The bottle smells like a mild form of windex to me and I react to it now. Their old formula was also good. I use Dessert Essense fragrance free conditioner now and love it. It also has kind of a light oatmeal smell and conditions much better than this brand (does not leave a fragrance after rinsing). I may switch over to their shampoo as well in the future.

No, it is not a shampoo. It's a scalp cream. They do however make a very good shampoo and conditioner.

I have very curly hair (natural curl). I used WEN for several years, then tried these Deva curl products, when I got some samples. I've used Deva Curl for about a year now. I can honestly say it is superior to WEN. I can't speak for anyone with straight hair--but Deva Curl is, hands down, the single greatest shampoo and conditioner I've ever used. The No-Poo is a non-lathering shampoo, just like WEN, but it is strictly a cleansing product. The One Condition then does additional conditioning. I will never go back to WEN or any other product. Hope this is helpful.

No need for shampoo, it's a cleansing conditioner similar to Wen, formulated without sulfates and detergents so there is no suds/foaming like shampoo. It is nice, and a lot cheaper than Wen, but I found that it builds up on my hair, making it look dirty/greasy so I ended up only using it once in awhile. Personally I won't repurchase.

I doubt it is. My hair stayed tighter in my scalp with fast then any other shampoo I've ever used. However i found that the slightly lesser name brand called "grow" dried my hair out and is breaking it off. Needless to say that once I'm done with these bottles i will be switching back to "fast". To each his own i suppose?...try the "wen" brand...SUPPER expensive, but hey if it's worth it u do what u gotta do...hope this helps u?(: good luck

It cleanse the hair, and has the consistency of a condition, it does not lather like a shampoo, but it is wonderful to only have to use one product. My hair is super dry, and frizzy, and I use WEN everytime I wash my hair. Need to at least give it a try, it smells great as well

It's ounces (smaller than most shampoos/conditioners) but this is actually the conditioner. So you need to wash it off. Can't leave in there. I would use this and the shampoo and then you can use the Chi Silk Infusion which you can use if your hair is dry and also if you want to flat iron your hair. Chi Silk Infusion is wonderful and keeps your hair looking shiny for days.
