After years of using the best salon brands, I finally got sick of dosing myself with synthetic chemicals just to wash my hair. I eat organic food. I wear some organic clothes. I buy organic cotten sheets. Why not switch to an organic shampoo?
Well, switching to organic shampoo was not as easy as it seemed. I went to the local co-op and bought an bottle, but it was horrible compared to the high-end salon brands that I was accustomed to. I tried another brand of organic shampoo and was equally unhappy. After talking to lots of people and stores, I had no better solution. So I decided to test them all: I bought a bottle of EVERY organic shampoo that I could find for sale in March of 2006. And I tried them all. The results of my test were striking: Only ONE shampoo was comparable to the high-end salon brand shampoos that I was accustomed to the "EO Gentle & Nourishing SHampoo Chamomile & Honey."
I've been using it for over a year now, and I'm still really pleased. I've also recommended it to several friends, who also love it. And I recommended it to my local co-op, who now carries it it's a best seller there.
I highly recommend this shampoo.

So before I get into the review let me just explain my shampoo history. I was raised on Pantene but I have tried just about everything you can get at the neighborhood drug store and many "salon" products. I have also bought some "salon" products in Japan when I have been there and I can say that those have been absolutely excellent. In fact, if it were not for the price (think thirty bucks for an eight ounce bottle) I would probably buy the stuff from Japan and import it forever.Pretty much everything I have tried has seemed to dry out my hair a lot. Now, I understand that the point of Shampoo and conditioner is to strip your hair of the smelly oils your body produces and replace them with something that will smell nice and make your hair look good. However, I have always thought it would be better if you could somehow get rid of excess oil without stripping the hair itself. This is what I loved about the Japanese products I have tried and what I think the EO accomplishes.
Now, let me be clear, this shampoo does not have an appealing smell. If you have been around hippies it smells like something they would use as "natural deodorant". It has a lot of herby action going on with some weird lavender business thrown in. The good news here is that it doesn't seem to cling to your hair. I think this is because it is not trying to replace oils in your hair but rather sort of sloughing off the excess.
I have used this for about a month. My hair feels very healthy, almost like you would expect the opposite of split-ends to feel, and it is reflecting light in a way that it hasn't since I was a kid. While my hair usually gets really dry in the middle of winter, it feels nice even in the driest weather.
This is obviously a product conceived with hippies in mind. It is apparently organic and really simply made. All I know is that it feels really good on my hair and I don't have to use all kinds of conditioning products to get shiny, beautiful hair.
One note on application. I am not sure if I am just weird about how I apply shampoo, but I have always just applied it directly onto my hair and scalp and massaged it into a lather. I found that with this stuff you need to lather it up in your hands before applying it to your hair in order to avoid using a ridiculous amount. If "pre-lathered" I usually only use a dime or quarter sized amount.

I love this shampoo! In addition to smelling great, it cleans and lathers well. I have somewhat dry hair, so I must use it with their conditioner. Love this stuff! I love EO's Chamomile and Honey Shampoo. I tend to have dry hair and switch between this and heavier Rose Shampoo. Lathers great...and the smell is awesome! Best of all, no chemicals.And...no chemical smells.Want EO Restorative Shampoo for Dry Hair, Chamomile & Honey, 8.4-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 3) Discount?
This shampoo smells great, especially for the price, but it isn't particularly gentle or nourishing for actually dry hair. If you have healthy, uncolored hair, this is a good deal it'll cleanse and leaves a seriously gorgeous, authentic (you won't smell like Jello or a Glade candle) scent. If you color, it will fade; if you're dry, it'll leave you fuzzy.
