A new hair product is due to be out this May and I was given the chance to get the first dibs and try it out before it was made available in the market. I received a package a few weeks back containing a pack of Wen Cleansing Conditioner by Chaz Dean and tried it out as soon as I can.
Wen Cleansing Conditioner by Chaz Dean in a nutshell
Chaz Dean, a US-based celebrity stylist and GuthyRenker {makers of Proactiv Solution} worked together to formulate a new concept in hair cleansing and came up with Wen Cleansing Conditioner. Veering away from harsh detergents and sodium lauryl/laureth sulfates which most shampoos have that makes the hair dry, faded, dull, frizzy and lifeless, Wen Cleansing Conditioner, with its 5-in-1 formula, takes the place of shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner and leave-on condition, as well as detanglers. It works by thoroughly cleansing the hair without lathering and without all the harsh ingredients found in ordinary shampoos thereby leaving the hair with sheen, manageability and moisture and with better color retention.
Wen Cleansing Conditioner comes in two variants ~ Sweet Almond Mint and Pomegranate.
