At 12.00 for only 8 ounces, I was somewhat hesitant when I purchased Carols Daughters Rosemary Mint Herbal Shampoo.
I have long, thirsty, curly locks and I was certain that 8 ounces wouldnt last me very long. Nevertheless, after my friend continually encouraged me to give Carols Daughter a try.
The Magic Ingredients
Carols Daughters website actually does not list the magic ingredients. I found this quite disturbing since the company had long been touted as all-natural.
Once finding the ingredient listing on Sephora, I felt more comfortable about purchasing. Call me obsessive-compulsive, but I wanted to guard against any allergic reactions before spending 24.00 for a 16 oz supply of shampoo.
To my surprise, however, Carols Daughters products are not all-natural but do contain many all-natural, hair healthy ingredients at least much more than your traditional beauty supply or drugstore shampoo.
Is it for you?
It really depends. I think this shampoo is excellent, although I am not certain whether it is the most moisturizing or detangling shampoo on the market.
I also was disappointed that the product was not all-natural, yet it was far superior to most hair care products on the market for ethnic hair, especially the so-called reputable lines.
Overall, it was wonderful. It had a nice minty smell and wasn’t too harsh. Yet, I also feel I get the same, if not better results from using Beauty 4 Ashes Godhead Silky Smooth Shampoo for Ethnic Hair.
This product is completely all-natural and contains many of the same ingredients as the Rosemary Mint and Herbal Shampoo.
It also has a few more natural oils for dry, tangled hair, such as shea, jojoba, avocado, and wheat germ. But, this product is a bit pricier since it is all-natural and includes extra ingredients. You can learn more about it at wwwdiscoverb4acom.
The Final Word
There is a scarcity of quality ethnic hair care products. Carols Daughter is truly a breakthrough. Of course, you should do your research and determine what works best for you. I did. I looked at every ingredient included in the product, especially for my own safety.
Would I use this product again? Most likely. But since I can achieve the same results without being exposed to chemicals, I will probably purchase GodHead Silky Smooth over the Rosemary Mint Herbal Shampoo.
