How does this compare to Pureology Hydrate? Also, does it give that wonderful tingly scalp feeling?

well the Lavender is good for thick hair. The Pureology Hydrate is for thin hair.

My hair is thick & wavy, don't really have static fly away hair, so I can't really answer this. I really like the Elixir, makes my hair softer, smoother, & not so dry looking.

Cheryl, I can honestly say this does not damage the hair and is more soothing and doesn't smell as mediciney... I have tried head and shoulders... I still itched. I tried Selsen and still itched. My hairstylist recommended another redkin shampoo that really makes your hair soft and scalp moisturized and I still itched. Then I decided to try this and I love it. I alternate between the two redkin shampoos and am hair is much better. Just remember, you get what you pay for!

It does not foam like the compact sturdy suds that soap-foam makes. It's creamy-feeling, not sudsy-feeling. It forms a thin creamy foam when I massage it on my scalp/hair (I use it as shampoo as well as a body wash.) It rinses a little slippery, not squeaky clean, but there is no detectable residue on my skin when it dries, and both skin and scalp/hair are completely clean and soft when dry. It really does calm my dermatitis, especially followed by use of their moisturizer product. Highly recommend.

Yes I get tingling. My head feels VERY cold after using this product even when it is cut with water.

To me, there is a very faint smell. I never really noticed it before. It's a pleasant fragrance, not over powering at all. I use it after showering, and towel drying my hair. I use very little, and rub in the palms of my hands, and rub it evenly through my hair. My hair feels a little stiff at first, but if I use the blow dryer afterwards, it seems to soften my hair. My hair without it, is very frizzy & dry looking. When I use the Crew hair styling, it gives my hair a nice "shine" and is not dry looking or frizzy at all. I don't use all the time, I try to conserve for when I go out, or someplace special. Boy, when I don't use it though, I wish that I had. To tell you the truth, I never read labels, I just "sniff" the product before using it. If it smells okay, then I use it. This is how I felt about this product. I will buy again, when I start to get low.

I have not used Hydraplenish so I cannot compare and contrast. I do use the NOW product and it has been satisfactory. I do not plan to stop using it. Hope this helps.

Hi no it's not! It's just a regular conditioner. However, it makes your hair feel soft and smooth. I love it!

I recently gave my brother a bottle. I asked him how was it from a man's point of view. He said it was good. He scrubbed his scalp and it felt good and clean. I don't shampoo with it.

Yes. When I use it, my scaloodp feels very clean. I don't have issues with dandruff or scalp problems, but it has left my scalp feeling good.

I really don't know. I never attempted to put it on my scalp or hair. It is a thick greasy feeling product which soothes and softens the skin, especially the feet, hands, elbows.

Do you mean a nourishing conditioner after you use a shampoo? There is no comparison. I have long tinted fine blonde hair living in a hot country. My hair was like straw before I used this. I use about 19 pumps on my hand then after wetting hair well I spread it evenly all over and down the shaft squeezing and massaging my scalp. It is the first I put on in the shower and the last thing I rinse of... I used to use wen hair but its too expensive. This is just as good if not better. For the price it is definitely worth trying for the price. You will get use to not having a lather on your hsir...Also hubby has been using it for weeks his hair after the first use the condition was unbelievable. Hope this helps.

I can't speak for the stuff that comes in the little vials but I have been using una hair treatment for a year now and I have seen great improvement when it comes to my bald areas. When it is applied to the scalp there is cool tingly feeling like peppermint. I have eczema, so from constant itching I keep losing my hair in the same spot. When I use the product my scalp does not itch as much and my hair grows back and it's even thicker than it was before. Hope this helps!!!

It is not comparable to Pureology. Hydrate is minty and SuperRich is spiced like Chai or mulling spices. They make nice products, the man who started the company was the head of development at Pureology. When L'Oreal bought out Pureology the development stopped and he left to start ColorProof. I do like SuperRich but my favorite is the CrazySmooth anti-frizz. The smell is to die for and my hair has never felt better - after just one wash. I am a salon owner and I have at least $500 of products at home just for my own use. I am very happy with ColorProof's products. If you would like a 3 piece sample, let me know.

No I did not experience that. I am in my 40's and my hair is thinning. This has done nothing to increase or decrease the thinning. But the texture of the shampoo feels less harsh and kinder on my hair. I actually feel it. Good luck

I've found that it is too thick to use alone, it makes my scalp itchy! The way I use it is to mix one tablespoon to 1/4 cup of conditioner and use as a pre-poo or co-wash, let it sit on my hair for 45 minutes, then rinse out. Also, it really does make your hair grow. I had a balding area from damage from years of relaxer, so I also mix a little (maybe a few teaspoons) with jojoba oil (1 tablespoon) and a few drops of rosemary oil, massaged into the thinning areas of my scalp. No need to rinse out as the other oils cut the thick, stickiness of the castor oil. Respond back and let me know what other products you've tried.

I can't say because i don't know, but it soothes my scalp and feels cool. I never found anything quite like this product. I mix it with regular shampoo that has no perfume or colors or additives of any kind. I am glad it is available.
