A few months ago, I started to see ads on Facebook for personalized shampoo and conditioner. You choose what you want the products to do for your hair and they are supposed to make a huge difference. Sounds a little too good to be true, right? Well, I'm here to tell you they actually do work! And they don't cost a fortune either.
The shampoo and conditioner are made by Function of Beauty. As stated on their website, their products are made in the USA and are cruelty-free! Their products are also free of sulfates, parabens, and toxins! These were all big pluses for me, so I decided to give it a try.
You start the process by completing a hair quiz. You choose your hair type, hair structure, and scalp moisture.
You pick five hair goals. Basically what you want the products to do for your hair.
Next, you decided what color you want the shampoo and conditioner to be and how they smell.
You also type in your name and they print it on the bottles!
Then you selected the sizes for the bottles. You can get both shampoo and conditioner, or just one or the other. They have a variety of sizes to choose from. The prices aren't too high in comparison to salon brands. Shipping is also free! I ordered the 16oz bottles of each.
It took around four weeks for my shampoo and conditioner to arrive. I ordered them the first week of December and received them right after Christmas. They did send me an email saying my order would be delayed due to the holidays, which was nice. They even offered to cancel the order in exchange for a gift card for the purchase amount in case these were gifts. I appreciate a company with fantastic customer service.
The shampoo and conditioner came in a pretty teal blue box. I was so excited to see it on my doorstep. The bottles are bigger than I thought and the colors are so vibrant! Also, my name is on the bottle! Shoutout to whoever thought of that!
It also came with a little pamphlet with directions on how to use the shampoo and conditioner, as well as descriptions of each hair goal.
I have been using the Function of Beauty shampoo and conditioner for about three weeks now, and I can honestly say I have seen a difference in my hair. It is way softer and definitely less frizzy. I wash my hair every other day, and I find that I don't really need to use dry shampoo as much on day two (except for my bangs). My ends seem smoother and my hair is very shiny.
I don't find myself using much of the product either. I use two pumps (it comes with the pumps) of shampoo (twice) and two pumps of conditioner. I was worried about it running out fast, but I don't think that will be the case. It also smells really nice; it has a natural, fresh scent that isn't too overpowering. I was a little worried about the mint. I have used mint shampoo before and it had a really strong tingling feeling, but that is not present with these. The shampoo requires a little water for it to lather up, but it lathers up quite a bit, especially during the second wash.
I would definitely recommend trying out Function of Beauty's shampoo and conditioner! Sometimes it is hard to find hair products that will do everything we want, while still being affordable. And if you don't like it, they will reformulate it for you or you can return it for free.
Here's to having a good hair day every day!
