My Quest for the Perfect Shampoo

Written By: Jellybelly - Mar• 06•13

Over the years I have tried many, many shampoos and could never seem to find the perfect one for me. Of course over the years, my hair’s needs keep changing. In my teens, it used to be dandruff. Then it was frizzy hair and “patay na buhok.” After that dry hair which was a new one for me because I hair has always been oil. Now it’s an itch scalp.

So that led me to looking up all the shampoos I’ve used over the years. I could only find some of them. Some of my favorites like Swallow and Vidal Sassoon I can’t find.

So now with an a problem with itchy scalp, I’m going natural. I tried a couple of shampoos from Healthy Options because my friend K said it worked on her itchy scalp. Not for me though and my felt stiff too. Next I tried this Human Nature shampoo.

I love it! No more itchy scalp and my hair feels bouncy. Now I need to find a solution for my stubborn flyaway hair while growing out my layers.

    I really want to join HN but always forgot to sign up. I want to go natural :) My hair gets frizzy also especially when its summer so I think this will also be a perfect match for my hair.

  2. I haven’t tried human nature shampoos yet but the kids are trying out the sample of their kids shampoo and soap all in one.

  3. Farida says:

    I remember Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific and even its commercial! Human Nature is getting famous for their products. Their line of lotions are good too.

    I always thought natural is always the best choice but when I tried Human Nature shampoo for the first time, I got dandruff…but only with the shampoo lang because the conditioner works fine with me. That was 3 years ago…maybe I’ll give it another try since they always reformulate naman.

      It’s hiyang hiyang din these natural products. Like my face always breaks out with Body Shop make up. And that shampoo from Healthy Options wasn’t okay for me. It was expensive too.

    my hubby swears by human heart nature’s strengthening shampoo. his hair looks thicker and the grays don’t appear right away. i use dove :)

    • Jellybelly says:

      Wow that’s great to hear. I have a female friend who has problems with thinning/falling hair. Maybe this will help her.

  6. Mys says:

    I wanna try human nature but it’s not that my scalp is itchy, I have a problem with falling hair. I hope I can find them here or perhaps I should just buy online to satisfy my curiosity.

  7. tet says:

    speaking of shampoo, i’m battling with a dilemma , yes dilemma of finding the perfect one.. haha.. even those high end shampoo doesn’t work.. papalit-palit kasi ako coz i tend to dislike the smell of the shampoo if used for so long.. weird me. haha

  8. Vanessa says:

    I like this post. Love shampoos too. I have always been in search of shampoo because i have naturally curly hair and it’s really hard to make it smooth and shiny. Hihi! I love Human Heart Nature. And like Mommy Maye, I have been meaning to sign up and never gets the chance. Goodluck, I hope you find the best solution for stubborn flyaways. :-)
