Giovanni 50/50 Balanced Shampoo, 2 Fluid Ounce

AMAZON IS AMAZING..... & SO IS THIS PRODUCT..... I LOVE this shampoo. It has such great clarifying quality to it, leaving hair soft and healthy hair feeling. No over powering scent. The value is great because it lasts for a very long time. The bottle is easy to use because it has a convenient pump. I order the large bottle size because it is the best value. The bottles size and shape is perfect for my thin ledge tub shower combo.

Of course, we all have different hair, scalp, diet, and health which all makes a difference in what will work for you. For me, this product is amazing. I'm almost 40 and have no health problems. My hair is baby fine, mostly straight and fairly long and I have a decent diet. I also do not dye my hair. I used to have crunchy ends and my roots tend to get oily if not washed every 2-3 days. Just a little dab of this shampoo and it lathers lightly and rinses out as if I've conditioned my hair. After years of use and trimming off the crunchy ends, my hair remains soft and silky. No tangles. Most times, I do not use a conditioner after using this shampoo. After every other shower, or if I use any hot tools, I use in a pea sized drop of leave-in conditioner ( Giovanni Direct Leave-In Conditioner, Weightless Moisture, 8.5-Ounce Containers (Pack of 3) ), and that's it. My hair is shiny, not frizzy, and it flows with the wind like I'm in a Japanese anime. I love it! On top of this, the scent is just lovely. Very light and natural like a faint sweet flower. You easily get used to the smell and will be pleasantly surprised to receive compliments after a hug. I really hate the rectangular bottle, but that's alright because I love this so much, I buy it by the gallon and use a pump dispenser. I started using this shampoo maybe 10 years ago. Out of curiosity, I keep trying other products that people rave about like HairOne, Wen, Biolage, Jason, Aubry Organics, and many others I didn't bother to remember, but none of the shampoos make my hair feel as wonderful as this 50/50 formula. I end up giving the other stuff away. Even the other Giovanni shampoos, don't compare to this one. The wheat didn't clean well enough but also made my hair feel dry. The tea tree felt great, but I didn't like the squeaky clean feel and making my hair seem a little wire-like. The Smooth as Silk was similar to the 50/50, but a little heavier.

I have scalp issues and have tried alot of clarifying shampoos and conditioners. This one works the best. The smell is nice and my hair and scalp feel good.

I have fine, wavy hair and I like this shampoo because it makes my hair soft and is gentle yet still cleanses. I've tried several sulfate-free shampoos, and had to go back this one. There is a noticeable difference in softness and curl definition even after one use. I find the lather comparable to sulfate shampoos. I prefer nonscented products and hate sweet or strong smelling shampoo; this one does have a fragrance but it is very mild and more herbal than fruity or sweet, so it doesn't bother me. When I had bought this shampoo locally, it was clear. As you see in the picture here, the product I received from Amazon is more honey-colored. I was worried it was a different formulation or the product was past its prime, but after trying it, it seems to work the same as what I bought in the store. My only change would be with the bottle. The narrow flip top is a bit awkward.

This is my favorite shampoo. I have fine, curly hair that tends to be dry. It keeps my curls soft and bouncy. I like the large size bottle, it lasts a very long time. The pump is easy to use and keeps waste to a minimum. The bottle is less likely to leak than the smaller bottles that I'd keep upside down. The shampoo is nice and thick and I like how it lathers. I like the cleaner ingredients of this brand and use their conditioner too.

I like this shampoo. It doesn’t make my scalp itchy and it gives it a shiny bit of body. My hair is fine and with grey. I like the bottles for travel. They’re good and tight and lay nice and flat.

My hair is LITERALLY squeaky clean after using this. I use it about once a week. It gets all the oils out before I do my hair treatment routine and lessens my after shower frizz

I love this shampoo. I buy it for my mom as well. But just like others have noticed, the shampoo from this Amazon seller is off. It’s a lighter color and lighter consistency and behaves as if it were diluted. It makes a ton of suds but it doesn’t wash my hair very well. I have a greasy scalp and I can tell a difference. I was visiting my mom recently and washed my hair with the same shampoo and could notice the difference immediately. I buy hers on Iherb because she lives abroad. I went on and ordered a bottle for myself from iherb and you can see the picture. I will not be buying this shampoo on Amazon again.

I'm used to Neutrogena anti residue up until they stopped production. Been trying to find a better shampoo to help with products build up as I have curly hair. To my surprise,this works wonder. Love the smell and definitely help with the build ups

It's good. But i have not used it contiously. So not much sure about it's result.

Lovely shampoo that leaves thin & oily hair feeling and looking volumised. Will buy again.

On the contrary scalp becomes very dry and hair became more fragile and frizzy. The whole scalp becomes more flaky.

Rundum zufrieden - curly save, aber schäumt und reinigt, ist ergiebig, riecht nett, aber nicht dominant. Mag ich seit langer Zeit sehr gerne.
