Aussie Moist Shampoo and Conditioner

Filed under: Product Reviews — Stephanie

Gaaah! My hair loathed this stuff.

I had the worst hair day I’ve had in years using the Aussie Moist Shampoo and the Conditioner. I mean seriously! I know the weather probably didn’t help - dry and very cold for my area, but still! I’ve never had my hair feel like wires before. And the breakage!

I was actually surprised by my hair’s negative reaction this time because it’s a product I’ve used in the past. Most days this time around my results were what I would call adequate but not exceptional.

I can’t say exactly what the problem was. Just nothing special results for my hair type, really. But tangling was worse than usual, which is a major problem for long hair.

I did not particularly notice a buildup problem or anything obvious like that. Aside from that one really bad day my hair did not feel unusual. Even when I used the Aussie products to wash it the next day my hair went back to near normal, away from that weird wirey feeling. So I just don’t quite know if it was the weather or what for that part.

A bit late, but I still wanted to comment.

I know your pain…

Last summer I tried the new Herbal Essences stuff, and it was the blue kind (something with blue orchid, I don’t remember, it was the kind for dry/damaged hair), and it ended up stripping away at the cuticle of my hair and damaging it. My 2 hair cuts prior to that were separated by a year and 8months and the stylist only cut off 2 inches. My most recent one, which was 8 months from my last cut, (a few months after the new herbal essences crap) the stylist had to chop off 5 inches. Needless to say, I was slightly pissed because I KNEW that the old Herbal Essences worked amazingly in my hair. I still use and have brand loyalty, as long as it’s that kind. I’ve been using it for several years without a major problem. My hair is healthy, thick, shiny, almost split-end free, and I don’t need to brush it because it doesn’t get snarly.

So, in other words, I feel your pain.

I am afraid of all Aussie products after my experience with one of their conditioners. I purchased the Aussie Sun-Touched Shine Conditioner because I had run out of my normal conditioner and it promised to make my hair “shiny” and “silky smooth.” Since I had never used this product before, I read the information on the bottle carefully, and followed the instructions on how to use it.
I used the product once and now my red hair looks bleached, dull, and feels course instead of its usual smoothness. Not only did the product not fulfill its promise, but it took away the natural beauty of my hair!
I waited 24-hours and then washed my hair again, this time using only my normal shampoo with conditioner. There was no change in my hair–it is still just as ugly and ruined as it was right after I used the Aussie conditioner. I called the company and they essentially said “Sorry, but you’re just going to have to wait for it to grow out.” No explanation. No real help. I am extremely disappointed and would caution anyone who considers buying an Aussie product.

Yowtch! It’s really something seeing others who have had problems with their products.
