    Beautiful stuff

    Posted by Harmony on 16th Sep 2015

    I got a free sample of this, and my hair felt amazing after just 2 washes - no conditioner needed. I wish I could afford to get more! Brilliant product.

    Amazing product! Soothes my scalp and no need to use a separate conditioner!

    Posted by Hannah on 2nd Sep 2015

    I have recently started colouring my hair and was getting fed up of all the sulphate-based shampoos stripping my colour really quickly, I also have an itchy, sensitive scalp, so I decided to try something a bit more natural. This shampoo is so lovely! When I first used it, as I was rubbing it into my hair it felt a bit like it wasn't going to clean my hair as much as I wanted it to, but as soon as my hair dried I could see it was beautifully clean and fresh. It's so moisturising that I don't need to use a separate conditioner, and my colour has definitely been lasting longer too!

    Really Softening

    Posted by Heather on 30th Aug 2015

    I purchased the trial size and within the first wash I noticed the frizz in my hair was dramatically reduced. I am now buying the 200ml and stocking up. It is really gentle. I am yet to waver the conditioner afterwards, but I hope to ween my hair off.

    wonderful shampoo

    Posted by Smellycat on 12th Aug 2015

    Have purchased this shampoo twice now and it is wonderful. It has lasted me ages both the smaller and larger sizes. Calms my itchy scalp from wearing hats all day at work from the heat and leaves it feeling soft, conditioned and well maintained. Even my hairdresser has commented saying my hair is extremely resilient and a wonderful colour and texture. I have very fine hair but lots of it and so I avoid conditioners like the plague. I usually have to wash my hair at least every other day, and whilst no shampoo has cured this problem for me, I am slightly more confident about going that extra day of not having to wash it as being an all natural shampoo, it doesn't strip my hair, making it produce more oil to compensate. It has a faint smell that is neither overly feminine or off putting, my little girl who is nearly 3 loves it and leaves her hair feeling soft. I have even caught my hubby 'borrowing' it for his own use, not to mention washing with it and putting it in the bath as a wash for our daughter, thinking it was a nice bath oil! I find it very hard trying to find a shampoo that doesn't weigh my hair down but this one ticks all the boxes for me! Thanks Odylique, finally a natural shampoo alternative after countless hours of searching and being disappointed by finding nasty preservatives or harsh detergents lurking in so called 'natural' hair care brands' products.

    That's it - not changing shampoo again

    Posted by Araceli on 18th Jun 2015

    I combine using this with a fortnightly wash with the Tea Tree oil shampoo - the only shampoos that genuinely help with dandruff and itchy scalp whilst keeping your hair looking shiny.

    so far so good

    Posted by Izabela on 1st Jun 2015

    I was looking for something that is not harsh and with only few ingredients as I recently have a horribly sensitive scalp as well as the skin. I tried the shampoo and after just two times I think it is fine, no raction. I do not have any sensitivity and no itchiness, my hair feels fine, shiny and I do not have a problems with combing, so far so good. :)
    I am thinking about the Rose cream as well as the make up. If I will be ok with the shampoo for longer with no reaction, defenitely will try cream and make up.

    Great shampoo. Dreadful packaging!!

    Posted by Martin Gallagher on 23rd May 2015

    I have used many so called "gentle and organic" shampoos and most of them either dried out my scalp or made my hair limp and lifeless. At last a gentle shampoo which leaves your hair feeling clean and with volume. The downside is the packaging. I don't understand why a shampoo has a pump which is normally used for handwashes. If you want to lock the pump then be prepared to waste plenty of product otherwise just let the air get into it. DEFINITELY NOT ECCO FRIENDLY PACKAGING. I would much prefer a tube with a flip top lid.

    Odylique Response: Dear Marty, So sorry to hear you had a problem with the pump. It is intended to aid dosage and be more user-friendly (e.g. some people with children prefer it if they've only got 'one hand spare'), so we are grateful for your feedback. It may be that your pump was faulty - we are happy to replace it. We try really hard to make our packaging as eco-friendly as possible - the shampoo bottles are made from recycled material in a factory about 30 miles from our own production facility and are more readily recyclable and biodegradable than tubes.

    My life is now infinitely better!

    Posted by Alex on 14th May 2015

    I have had huge problems with allergy and was at my wits end when I found your gentle herb shampoo. I no longer have sick hair and an itchy scalp. No more breaking, no more reaction to the changing weather, and no longer any need to use a conditioner. I am an older woman in my early sixties and my life is now infinitely better! I hope you never change this product or stop making it in my lifetime!

    Great Shampoo!

    Posted by Mona Slettum Sperle on 14th May 2015

    Great shampoo! One of the few that does not make my scalp flaky or itchy.
    It has a pleasant smell, not too strong which I think is a good thing.
    The only reason it wont get the last star is because I feel like you have to use quite a lot of product(I have very thick hair), so it gets used up pretty quick.
    Besides that, it is awesome!

    Simply the best . . .

    Posted by Jane on 9th May 2015

    The best shampoo ever and the first I have used that really doesn't make my scalp itch. I swim a lot and rinse my hair with fresh lemon juice before shampooing to neutralise the pH - it cleans my hair far better that the harsh products swimmers usually have to use and leaves my hair so soft and healthy looking.

    amazing

    Posted by Monika Mordawska on 20th Mar 2015

    Due to my frequent travelling and changing environment resulted in very dry scalp and itchy skin. After just one use it stopped itching and my scalp came back to normal state. This shampoo is a miracle!

    A natural and gentle daily shampoo that actually and really conditions your hair!

    Posted by Mai on 13th Mar 2015

    After my first try, I initially thought that it was not effective as it did not feel like I used a shampoo at all. To my amazing surprise, when my hair dried up, my hair felt very light, soft and silky smooth - as if I used a conditioner. In addition to these, I did not feel any itching at all, given my really sensitive skin/scalp. As a bonus, this shampoo smells divinely light and naturally neutral. It ticks all the boxes and worth every penny...Natural...Neutrally fragrant...Very gentle..Effectively conditions. All the best Odylique! I will be ordering more.
