  • Gentle, hydrating shampoo that leaves hair soft
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I picked up this CeraVe Gentle Hydrating Shampoo because my scalp gets dry easily and a lot of shampoos feel too stripping with regular use. After using it consistently, I’m really happy with how it performs. The formula is lightweight and easy to work through the hair, even though it doesn’t lather aggressively. It cleans well without that squeaky, dried-out feeling afterward. My hair feels soft, smooth, and comfortable once it’s dry, and my scalp doesn’t feel tight or irritated like it sometimes does with other shampoos. There’s no strong scent, which I appreciate, especially if you’re sensitive to fragrance or prefer something neutral. It also pairs well with other conditioners and styling products without causing buildup. Doesn’t cause excessive shine. Haven’t noticed any hair growth from this product but it’s doesn’t claim to increase growth. This is a great everyday shampoo if you want something gentle, moisturizing, and low-maintenance. If you’re looking for heavy clarifying or lots of foam, this may not be the best fit — but for keeping hair clean and healthy without dryness, it does exactly what it promises. ... show more

  • A Good Shampoo
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This shampoo is very good and has some of the same things that help my hair and I am not losing as much hair as I was before I started using it. This shampoo cleans my hair and scalp and does not have a scent to it. I use the other products and now my hair is clean and my scalp is clean and feels better too. ... show more

  • Gentle, Refreshing, and Great Value from a Trusted Brand
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
CeraVe is a brand I’ve trusted for a long time, and this gentle hydrating shampoo did not disappoint. Like their skincare products, this shampoo focuses on a simple, well-balanced formula that works effectively without being harsh. The price is reasonable, and the quality is consistently reliable. After washing, my scalp feels very clean and refreshed, not tight or dry. It cleanses well without stripping, and my hair feels soft and comfortable afterward. I especially appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and sulfate-free, which makes it suitable for regular use and for sensitive scalps. The texture is smooth, lathers gently, and rinses out easily. It doesn’t leave any residue, and my scalp feels light and fresh throughout the day. For everyday washing, this shampoo fits perfectly into my routine. Overall, this is a solid shampoo from a brand that delivers good results at an affordable price. I would definitely repurchase and recommend it to anyone looking for a gentle, effective, and trustworthy option. ... show more

  • Does the job!
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Does a good job removing product buildup and oil! No itchiness or irritation on my scalp and the skin on my chest/ back tolerate it as well. I get that "squeaky clean" feeling on my hair if I shampoo twice, which is nice but I do think the hair tends to tangle more even with my regular conditioner. Decently color-safe-- definitely still get some color with the rinse-out, but it's not too bad. The scent isn't great-- kind of sunscreenish and weird, but it doesn't linger after I rinse it out. Overall, for the price, it's a good shampoo. ... show more

  • Excellent shampoo and conditioner
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love the CeraVe product line. The shampoo and conditioner are amazing, they really hydrate my hair without making it heavy or oily. They are truly hydrating. My hair looks so shiny and feels so soft. There is no perfume in this product just FYI.

  • Worth the price.
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Really like this for its ingredients and it is fragrance free. I have long hair and lots of it. This shampoo and conditioner tames, smooths and make my hair more manageable. It may seem like a higher price but you can use less of it because it foams up nicely.

  • High Quality, Gentle but Cleansing
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Hydrating is the new euphemism for "conditioning" I think. The more I use this product, the more I like it. At first I thought the conditioning component might be a little heavy handed. A good one to put in your shampoo rotation. It cleans well, and there's little or no residual scent.

  • Wanted to love it, sad to say goodbye.
Style: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
After using this product every day for the past two months-ish Pros: This product has ingredients that are not harmful and I feel confident that they cause no issues on my skin. I had absolutely zero negative skin reactions which I do have with other products. The texture of it going into my hair was also great. Giant note: this shampoo made me finally discover that I am low level allergic to fragrances in shampoos and conditioners. Usually I experience scalp itchiness and for some products I no longer use it can get intense and I can't stop itching my scalp all day and night. This product caused ZERO itch, and I only realized this when I switched back to a different shampoo brand and immediately experienced itching with the first wash. However the itching was a lot less than other brands and as you will see, the cons of this product made switching back a sad but inevitable decision for me. Cons: Immediately made my hair tangly and frizzy ( it became painful to run my fingers through my hair.) Did not cut the scalp oil and so I could no longer go even a single day between washes (I could if I supplemented with a different brand of shampoo but that's not the goal I was aiming for.) The accompanying conditioner did nothing to help the friz either. Did not leave my hair glossy and silky but it did feel hydrated it just didn't look good. I also noticed a slight increase in dandruff because I was scrubbing so hard to try and get all the oil out of my hair, and I wouldn't even say I have oily hair in general. When my very fine hair became tangled it was a chore to brush it out and made me feel like the amount of force I had to put in was pulling hairs out, plus it didn't feel very brushed afterwards but still frizzy and catching my fingers when I ran them through. Immediately when I used a different brand of shampoo for one day: My friz was almost gone My hair looked visibly glossy and silky It cut all the oil so I could go my normal two days between hair washes I could run my fingers straight through my hair again with only one or two slight snags After the second wash: Friz virtually none-existant Hair still looks glossy and silky When my hair became tangled, brushing it out was easy and it stayed looking brushed Overall, if you are looking for a product you feel safe putting on your body and alo will not cause you to have bad skin reactions, this product is for you. I didn't try using apple cider vinegar to see if it would help the shine or tangle because I just don't want to have fifty products in my shower and take forever to wash my hair, but I'd be super curious if anyone has tried that combo. I don't think they can fix the issues I mentioned without compromising on the cleanness of the ingredients so I will use up my bottle and probably not buy again. ... show more
