I have put olive oil on both my scalp and length of my hair and this washed it out completely. My long hair feels a little crispy when I use this if I don't use enough conditioner. It has helped when my hair was even dyed bright red with semi-permanent dye. I'd estimate it as giving me probably two or three more washes with brighter color than a regular shampoo.

It doesn't fade my hair as fast as much as normal shampoos, even when my hair was dyed jet black. This is not the best color-protecting shampoo that I have used, but for the price I'd say that it is pretty good. It's definitely a great smell and it works best with the matching conditioner.

It locks scents into my hair for several days. It's very fruity/floral mix but it's definitely feminine. It doesn't hurt it but it certainly doesn't protect it or lock it in for any extra weeks. On a downfall though, it doesn't help color as it claims to do. It does a great job of cleansing, moisturizing, keeping dandruff down, and lathers and has a nice scent. Bottle design is always a big deal for me and the bottle is recyclable. That's one of my main concerns with all products because in my two person household, all products are fair game.Īlso, I love the bottle design because you can turn it upside down so all the product can be gotten out. It has a very feminine, floral, fruity smell. The scent seems to be deposited and locked into every lock as well. It seems to get into every strand and I notice it moisturizes more than others and doesn't dry my hair out. The shampoo gets a really good lather and rinses out very easily. It surely didn't hurt it either though on that note. It claims that it's more gentle and will allow you to keep your color glowing weeks longer but I just don't see it. This shampoo is supposed to help keep your colored hair vibrant and keep from stripping color out of your hair. Herbal Essences shampoo Color Me Happy has helped to extend the life, and length of time between my color treatments, helping to save me money, I see this as a double bonus.Īs indicated by the name Herbal Essences, Color Me Happy has a wonderfully clean, fragrant flowery smell, but is a light fragrance that does not over power. It does tend to build up a little bit, which is solved by switching up shampoos for one day a week. I use this shampoo daily and have found it does not strip my hair of it's grey covering color treatments. This shampoo smells wonderful true to the Herbal Essences product line of hair care products. I was excited when Herbal Essences came out with this product especially for color treated hair types. I loved the fragrance afforded by the Herbal Essences line when I was young and did not color my hair. It is very difficult to find shampoos and conditioners that don't strip your color. I am a person in denial about aging and color my hair.
