Amazing
Date:June 1, 2011
Pros: Color treated, Dry hair
My Review: After coloring my hair was extremely dry and straw-like. Nexxus Dualiste really improved the softness and strength of my hair.

FINALLY an amazing product to maintain color!
Date:April 21, 2011
Pros: Color treated, Dry hair, Curly hair
My Review: I am an african-american woman with very coily 4a, dry hair. I also have very hot red/pink color-treated hair. After trying products from brands like Kenra, Joico, & Redken, I've FINALLY found a product that works great for me! All of the other products dried out my hair making it feel like straw even after applying the conditioner then my favorite leave-in. This product also holds in my color pretty well, so I can definitely say I've found my staple product! First time opening it, the pump for the shampoo was a bit difficult to manipulate, but that was the least of my worries. I was much more concerned with the results I'd get from using the shampoo and conditioner, and was definitely excited. I've been using this product for at least 3 weeks now, and have no complaints what-so-ever!

BEEEUUUTifull ;)
Date:April 19, 2011
Pros: Color treated, Dry hair, Damage repair
My Review: When I was 18, I was in my wilder days and had done many things I regret including bleaching my hair. After a year of bleaching my hair, I had finally decided to dye it brown again, because I was trying to grow out my hair and bleaching it made my ends frazzle. When I dyed it brown, I did not want to cut my hair, I loved my long locks, so I switched to this product... I am a University student, I know what being frugal means, but trust me this product is worth every penny. I cannot even find the words to give it justice. Thank-you Nexxus for letting me keep my beautiful hair.

Super Satisfied
Date:March 12, 2011
Pros: Color treated, Wavy hair, Damage repair, Oily hair
My Review: I have oily hair and recently discovered I was drying out my hair completely too much with dying and washing my hair everyday. I was washing my hair and it was still greasy after I was washing it. A friend told me to try Nexxus products so I purchased the Dualiste Intense Hydration and used the Keraphix conditioner and my hair feels amazing. After one wash my hair was soft and silky. My hair looked, felt and smelled amazing. It was less frizzy and just all around in better shape. I will never be able to go back to using any other brand of product ever again.

shampoo pump is the worst!
Date:December 28, 2010
Pros: Color treated
My Review: I bought the shampoo and conditioner. From the start, the shampoo pump top was hard to use--especially compared to the conditioner pump. I thought it must be one defective bottle, so when I'd finally managed to use most of it, I bought two new bottles--one conditioner, one shampoo.
Well, I just used them. The shampoo is ALSO almost impossible to pump. The conditioner bottle seems OK. However, I have had it with this product and want my money back!
The products themselves were OK, not super great enough to put up with the hassle in the shower.

Good purchase
Date:November 18, 2010
Pros: Color treated
My Review: Like the scent and the way it treats your hair. However, the bottle pump system is not the best. It is very hard for a handicapped person to pump this bottle in the shower. Therefore, I doubt I will buy this product again. I will go back to using your Botonoil shampoo.

Amazing.
Date:July 23, 2010
Pros: Color treated, Straight hair, Dry hair, Damage repair, Oily hair
My Review: Naturally I have dark brown (almost black) hair. I have been dying it for a few years and recently decided to go a lot lighter. In order to do this my stylist had to strip my hair, thus making my hair extremely dry and straw-like. I was in need of a shampoo that would help. I bought this shampoo (and the conditioner) and after the first time my hair was soft, shiny and extremely healthy.
Sometimes I have problems with my hair getting very greasy and this has not happened since I have been using this product. I do not think I can use another shampoo and conditioner, this is perfect for my hair.

good product bad container
Date:March 4, 2010
Pros: Color treated
My Review: I really love your shampoo. I have used your products for years and I have always loved them so when I noticed your new product on the shelf I purchased it. The first thing I didn't like was the way you had to get the shampoo out of the bottle. It was hard to push down on the top and when I finally got it all the way down the shampoo just ran down the side of the bottle. I had to scoop the shampoo off the bottle to get it. Once I did I really liked the dual effect. Please rethink the way you get the shampoo out, it is the only poor thing about this product.
