I go through a bottle very very fast but I have very long thick hair past my mid back so I use about 40 pumps. ( I tried less but it didnt work the same) However I find it to be worth it and I only need to buy this and I use a clarifying shampoo in travel size once a month to prevent buildup so im still saving money in the long run

mine last about 6 weeks ... maybe a little longer in the winter

my hair is growing out and is a little past my shoulders..... i wash it every 3 days.... you will not have to use that much at all!!!!! I have verrrry thick curly hair and i use 3-5 pups to wash(this is shampoo and conditioner)it doesnt lather (which is weird at first)....wash my hair, shower then get 1-3 pumps depending on hair length and run through hair and towel dry.....i usually air dry unless wearing curly and leaving quick (then i blowdry with diffuser)... or airdry, and wear curly then straighten the 2nd day.... I love this stuff!!!

don't find I need as much as directions call for. have shoulder length hair.

I've had this for a month and use about 7pumps per wash. I wash my hair everyday. I still have more than 1/4 of the bottle left. So i figure it should last over a month even with longer hair.

My hair is medium length and I use the conditioner everyday so the bottle lasts me no more than 2 weeks

I use about 15 pumps per wash and a bottle lasts me just shy of a month. I wash my hair every other day. I hope this helps!

its the menthol, Alot of people have allergies to it. You could try the kids version as it dosent have the menthol in it. If you google Menthol you will see it can cause extreme irritation in some people so I wouldnt suggest you use it again.

I really didnt want to believe it at first because I love the way this product felt, smelled, and made my hair look, but unfortunetly my hair started falling out like crazy. I couldnt stop strands and strands of my hair from coming out. It was really disheartening and after reading about this being a common problem, I returned the product to my dismay.

Stop using it, I only used it one time & it made my hair look so frizzy and ugly I didn't even gamble on using it a second time.

Wen is a great product, however, it does contain silicone in the form of Amodimethicone. Although this type of silicone is supposed to be water soluble, it can cause build up. This build up can lead to clogged hair follicles which can cause the hair to fall out. It is important if you are experiencing hair loss with this product to use a good quality clarifying shampoo once a week or once bi-weekly. This should help remove any buildup on the hair shaft and clear the scalp of any clogging debris. Once this is incorporated into your hair care routine, the hair loss should decrease, however, if you are still experiencing an excessive amount of hair loss, you should discontinue use of the product. Another ingredient in Wen, Menthol, is actually a skin irritant. You may be having a reaction to this ingredient that is resulting in hair loss. One more thing to remember with Wen is that it contains protein. Protein is beneficial to the hair because it fills in the damage of porous weak hair making it harder which makes it stronger, however, some hair types are protein sensitive. If you are protein sensitive or your hair has a protein overload, it can cause the hair to harden to the point that it is breaking easily ( not from the root) making it appear that you are losing a lot of hair. Finding the right balance for your hair can be difficult. I believe that if you add a clarifying shampoo and hydrating conditioner (That doesn’t contain any proteins) to your routine with your Wen, you should get better results and less hair loss. BUT if this does not work, please keep in mind what I wrote earlier about a possible reaction. There is nothing you can do about that but to switch products. Good Luck!

Wen does not strip,harm or damage your hair in any way.If you're losing hair you're doing something wrong.I have used Wen for almost 8 yrs and my hair has never been this healthy.Sweet Almond mint is a universal Scent but there are others for different reasons.Fig,is for moisture,cucumber aloe is for oily scalps,Tea Tree helps if you're losing your hair which I think would help you combined with another.Email Chaz Deen and him and his staff will answer any question and solve any issue that you're currently having with your hair.Trust Chaz,he knows what he's doing,give it a try,you won't be disappointed.

There are entire forums on this product actually causing hair loss, so I would say definitely stop using it. That's the entire reason I chose not to purchase it, I don't want to chance that happening!

When you normally shampoo your hair you probably do not stimulate your scalp enough to get out all of the hair that typically falls out. However, after about a week or 2 of use it should be reduced. We generally have a hair loss rate of 100 strands per day and all piled up can look like a lot more than there really is. Unless it is falling out by handfulls, I would try to stick with it because you should notice a differnce in your hair. Think of the inital few first washes as a "purge" kind of like the clarisonic. When you first start to use it you really break out, then your skin becomes clear and glowing in a couple of weeks.

you definitely do not need a shampoo

I use Carol's Daughter Monoi

You don't need a shampoo.

WEN is made to cleanse your hair (like shampoo) and condition it (like conditioner). Think of it as a really good version of a shampoo-and-conditioner-in-one mass market product.

This "Cleansing Conditioner" is your shampoo and conditioner all in one. I know it sounds weird but it works. You should not be using a shampoo in addition to this product.

WEN Cleansing Conditioner is all you need---it replaces your shampoo.

I have short, fine, curly, color treated hair and Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner works wonderfully on my hair. Because my hair is short, I do not use as much product as recommended. I have been using WEN for nearly a year now and I am thrilled with the product. I wash my hair every day. Note also that with color-treated hair (red) my color lasts longer. I do not use any other cleansing or conditioning product along with the WEN. Just WEN!

lavender and Cucumber aloe are best for oily scalps.

I have oily hair also. I was skeptical as I'm sure you are. What I do is wash my hair at night and let it stay on my hair for about 15 minutes. Then all I do in the morning is just rinse my hair. I repeat every 3 days. Hope this help.

I, too, have an oily scalp with dry ends. I HAVE to cleanse my hair EVERY day, but I've been using WEN for 15 months. Follow the directions precisely for your hair length. If you don't use enough of the cleansing conditioner and don't leave it in long enough, then you may not get the results you want (i.e. you'll end up with that weighed down look). I know it seems counterproductive to use a cleansing conditioner on an oily scalp, but this works quite nicely for me.

i have the same type of hair... washed in the morning my scalp and bangs are oily by bedtime. wen did not make my hair oily. it probably lessened the amount of oil my scalp produces, but still not enough to get away with washing every other day (unless you spray a bunch of dry shampoo on it). it made my hair very manageable and soft. it's great!!

It wouldnt make your hair more oily at all. However i use to be able to go two days without washing before my hair /scalp got oily now i have to use it everyday. But, it depends on which smell you buy. The sweet mint, lavender allow me to go two days without. The pumpkin was kinda heavy. Its really a great product. I have never used a shampoo that made my hair, shiny , healthy, less breakable and actually make it grow faster. I love it. You should defiantly try.

My hair is oily if I wash it every day with regular shampoo. The less you wash your hair, the less oily it will become eventually- you just gotta get thru the rough period of yuckiness. That being said, I can imagine that this product would be VERY good for getting thru that period because you can wash every day for a little bit without stripping your hair. Regular shampooing every day is part of what makes your hair oily because your body thinks it needs to produce more oil to make up for the lack of oil. Then eventually start spacing out the washes to every other day/every couple days/etc. Your hair will thank you.

not at all

Yes!!! Don't buy it!

No grease here... My hair is coarse & thick, and I have tried many, many things... Wen is amazing. I'm not usually one to rave about such things.... As long as you don't leave too much in, you will not have a problem with any greasiness! You may need more or less each time, sometimes you may use a little as a leave in conditioner and sometimes may not.

I had the same concerns- I dye my hair red and to avoid fade out and damage I only wash my hair every other day/ every couple days. It has not left my hair greasy and I am still able to follow my same hair care patterns, except now I only need to use one product in the shower and it leaves my hair feeling healthier!

Yes it will. I add in a sulfate free clarifying shampoo every 3rd wash and it works perfectly.

I haven't had any problems with this. In fact it's one of the only products that I can go three days without washing my hair after using. I do use a regular shampoo once a week because my hair dresser recommended it.

Just used it this evening for the first time after a boxing class and was concerned that it may not clean well. But I was pleasantly surprised. My hair really does feel clean and smells great.

Yes, it is amazing. Your hair will be soft, not weighted down shiny and CLEAN!!! it is the most amazing product. I use it after working out and in the high humidity in my region , it gets really greasy.This product cleans it throughly and makes it gorgeous. Try it you will not be sorry

I am a triathlete so I sympathize with your concern. I do find a traditional wash about every week serves me well...but then again, I am in the pool quite often so I benefit from the intense conditioning properties.

I would guess not. I didn't think it adequately cleaned my *normal* hair at all.

it probably will not clean your hair well. I washed with wen after a 2 hour workout, and I need to wash it (normally) again!

I hike/walk/ride bike, one of the three every day. I go long distances. 5-10 miles hiking, same walking, 15-20 biking. I wash every other day, every day if hiking two days in a row to check for ticks. This gets my hair clean. You just have to use it properly. I suggest checking out my review on here, by just clicking on my sephora online nickname, or check out the intructional DVD. Can find the DVD on the quality value c-something channel or website, and likely the wen website. It'll get you clean though, if used right. When people say their hair is greasy, its cause they dont use it right. I know cause I did the exact same thing. Hated this stuff at first, but its cause I didnt use it right.

I use it like any shampoo, low later so do not expect suds, it is creamy. I leave on 3-5 minutes while I bathe and then rinse out. Rinsing is easy just run your hands through your hair and rinse, you will have the most beautiful hair. I have used this product for three years.

I rinse it out really well because it is taking out the excess out with it. Then I use
half a pump the ponytail section of my hair a couple of times a week

You must rinse the product out well, as it rinses away all the grime you're trying to cleanse from your hair. Also, Wen works much better as a conditioning cleanser than a leave-in conditioner. If you use as a leave-in, I would recommend only applying it to the ends of your hair. Better yet, use a lighter leave-in conditioner. But as a conditioning cleanser, this stuff really can't be beat.

You only need one product,Wen,thats it,Chaz Deen also offers a mousse,replenishing spray so you don't have to cleanse every day,it works that good.When you find the right formula for your hair type you'll never go back to traditional shampoo and conditioner.If I continued to use any old product now,I wouldn't have any hair left on my head.Wen saved my hair and made it thick and healthy with shine that was non existent before I tried it

ya, i wouldn't leave any in. i can see how neglecting to rinse it all out of your hair (and off your skin around your hair line) can leave a greasy, residue-y feeling. it is honestly conditioning enough that you don't need a "leave in" conditioner. if you still want to use one, i would use a different product meant only to be used as a leave in conditioner. be sure you rinse all this out and you will be so pleased with how well it works.

Wen will help your dry hair,mine was just that,now I can't imagine life without Wen.Theres one called Fig that gives your hair the most moisture and shine you've ever seen.If you get comfortable enough with the Fig you can add sweet almond mint to the mix, more product and the longer you leave it in the better your hair will bounce back,it's just incredible stuff.There isn't any scent in his line that will harm your hair and theres many more products like a replenishing mist thats just awesome.If you need more info Email Chaz Deen ,he and his staff will answer any question you may have

My friend and I got this at the same time. She has red, dry, long, curly hair(gorgeous but not easy to deal with) and she has had great luck with this. She hasn't stopped talking about it. Her hair looks softer and silkier and she swears it is in better shape since she started using Wen than it has been for years. She combs her hair in the shower like the directions suggest and has no tangles, flyaways, etc.. I say try it. We both have very different hair but we love it.

It did wonders for my dry hair , And made it grow , I havent had hair this long in forever , it always breaks off before it gets this long .

Yes!

Try Deva Curl products. I think you'll like them better for your hair. Particularly "The One" conditioner. I strongly recommend it :)

I would try it again. If you are used to washing your hair everyday then you may have to get used to it. I used to wash my hair every day until my hairdresser told me that women with longer hair should not wash every day. I think that is why I have liked Wen from the beginning because I was only washing every other day before I tried it. Also, make sure you follow the recommended directions. You can find directions on the Wen website.

I recommend it. you have to follow the directions for your hair type and commit for atleast a month. I suggest that for any hair product unless it makes your hair fall out. We all have our own natural oils i our hair and believe WEN bring that out. Most hair products have alot of chemicals that strip away your natural oils. Most ppl rag on WEN bcause they dont know how to take care of their hair and thats why they dont get the results they want. If you try it for a month and it doesnt give you the results you want than it wont be any different than any other product you have tried to manage your hair. I swear by the Sweet Almond Mint. I hope this helps.

I would recommend that you give Wen another try, but do make sure you follow the directions, and use it every day. My hair is really damaged, and it took about four days of daily use before I got the results I wanted. Also, it's important to massage your scalp like instructed, because in addition to helping the product work, scalp massage stimulates healthy hair growth. Also, make sure you use the recommended amount of product, because it will help the comb glide through your hair and prevent breakage.

YES!! I also have very wavy/curly thick course hair and highly recommend it... i let my hair airdry mostly.... if i am going somewhee and wearing curly i use a diffuser.... mostly air dry(and it comes out great) I also straighten..... but usually wear curly 1st day then straighten the next.This is perfect for all of that! Your hair will feel amazing.... weird to get use to no lather at first.... but it really is my favorite!

Try it again. And after you rinse it out, and rinse it thoroughly, then use a bit more and run it through your hair as a leave-in conditioner. It's worth one more try...

It is great with all hair, I would try the almond one first and if you feel it's too oily, then try the lavender. If it's not helping you hair because it's thinker, use the pomegrante one. I don't know about the other ones, I haven't tried.

I think you might love this product. I have medium-length, fine, straight, chemically-treated, heavy hair and worried it would be too heavy for me, but I learned the great thing about Wen is that you control the amount of moisture you want. I washed all of the product out and my hair was full of body (I do have to blow dry my hair to get it to do anything other than hang limp as a wet dishrag. I have yet to find a "wonder" product that totally alleviate this). I wash my hair every other day and noticed that when I didn't rinse as well, my hair would be a little heavy on the 2nd day. It wasn't enough of an issue to make me stop using the product. Hope this helps!

this product will work great for your hair type I imagine. Especially if you only wash ever so often.

I don't think it would be too much, you may have to use it a couple times to figure out what amount works for you, but I think you'll be thrilled with how soft and manageable your hair is!

I got my mom (67) to use it, and she thinks her hair is even easier to style. Before, she felt like her gel/sprak made her hair feel like it was gluey. Now with Wen, she said she needs less product and can get the look she wants more easily. Especially if you don't wash that often, I think Wen could be a really good idea for you. You can also try out the treatment mist between washes to refresh it a bit. I read that a lot of people like that. I wash every day, so I haven't tried myself.
