My husband was getting small bumps and irritation on his scalp after haircuts, and this shampoo and conditioner set made a noticeable difference. Since switching to this tea tree shampoo, the bumps have stopped appearing and his scalp looks much healthier. The tea tree scent is clean and refreshing without being overpowering. The shampoo leaves his scalp feeling clean and soothed, and the conditioner helps prevent dryness, which was an issue with other medicated shampoos he’s tried. It cleans well without stripping his hair or causing irritation. We also like that the formula feels gentle but effective, especially for sensitive or itchy scalps. After consistent use, his scalp irritation has stayed under control. Overall, this set has worked really well for us, and we would definitely repurchase it for ongoing scalp care. Read more
I have itchy scalp, and this has made a difference. Besides its effectiveness, it smells good and rinses clean, which obviously is important when you're dealing with dry scalp. I'd say the only issue I have is that my partner used it on the dog once so now I have to hide it because it's mine mine mine! Read more
I purchased the 'volume and growth'. The pros: Clean feeling scalp. Hair feels noticeably healthy and nourished. The acne on my back cleared while using this. The cons: The smell, altho not bad, is very strong. Its not a pretty smell, but its not as strong when hair dries. The pumps are very cheap quality. It was a struggle to open the bottles and the pumps barely work, I have to take pump out of the bottle to use the product. Honestly this daily hassle is worth not repurchasing. Read more
To start with...you should always do a skin test for a new product. That being said: what I am reading here about negative reactions is probably more about having allergic reaction to the Tea Tree ingredient . Not all the shampoos have it as an ingredient but those that do can cause several negative reactions. Skin test first. I cannot use Tea Tree ingredients either. The Purple Shampoo and Conditioner set hasn't given me any allergic reaction and appeared to greatly improve the look and feel of my hair (gray). The lightening was noticeable with the first treatment. Most shampoo has a smell and I don't like overpowering smells but the Purple Shampoo didn't have a very strong scent, it just smells clean.

Update: I have noticed a significant increase in breakage in my hair after 2 weeks of use, hair shedding seems to be increasing. Unfortunately will be returning. So I don’t hate this set. What I loved: the shampoo smells amazing. I also have a very sensitive scalp and after several washes, my scalp seems to approve, though does get a bit dry by the end of the day on wash day. Which is somewhat normal for me if I don’t work a small amount of conditioner on my scalp to act like lotion. The next morning after a wash day my hair is pretty soft. So far it also doesn’t seem to effect my box dyed red (from dark brown) hair. Started using this the second wash after dying my hair and the color is still bright. Things I’m meh about: I was a little let down by the tingle mentioned in other reviews. Nothing major, was just hoping for more. I haven’t had it long enough to really be able to tell, but I haven’t noticed a difference in dropped hairs. I shed like a husky, I also don’t brush my hair daily due to texture (wavy with some curl) and wear it up loosely for work. So far seems to be about the same size hairball at the end of my showers. Where my hair isn’t dull, it doesn’t seem to have as much shine. Things I’m not a fan of: the conditioner STINKS! Not sure if I got a bad bottle or what but after my shower tonight, the conditioner went in the trash. At first it reminded me of raw shea butter with a faint hint of peppermint. Wasn’t what I was expecting, but I thought I could live with the natural smell. The next time I used it, it seemed more pungent. Tonight I didn’t notice the smells until it was already on my hair, but it was so bad I had to rinse it out immediately. Now that’s all I can smell on my hair still. I notice while my hair is soft, it’s not as full. It doesn’t seem to effect my waves and curls though. By the end of the first day and into wash day, my hair does feel a bit dry. My hair tie gets tangled almost every time I take it out. I also can’t wear my hair down the second day. It doesn’t want to lay right where this wasn’t a problem with my last wash set. Combing it out after a shower is also more work than it’s been in the past. Which surprised me because it feels very smooth when rinsing. So over all the shampoo is pretty great. I really like it and would buy that again if I could buy just that. The conditioner, I’d consider trying it again in the case that I got a bad bottle but definitely wouldn’t buy it again. Read more
