i switched to avalon organics conditioner a couple weeks ago, and i’m so glad i did! i found their shampoos and conditioners on sale at whole foods, and decided to give them a try. i don’t know if i’ll be able to use the conditioner at its regular price ($8-$9, depending on where you get it), but i also have a feeling that i won’t be using up the entire bottle too quickly. the product has such a thick and creamy consistency, and it has worked wonders for my hair. EXCELLENT for co-washes, especially during winter and/or in dry climates.
i specifically purchased the revitalizing shampoo with peppermint and nourishing conditioner with lavender. i am interested in the olive and grape seed oil conditioner as well.

the first month of the “does it really work?” challenge has ended, so i’ve got the “after” pictures posted up in my fotki. check them out!
overall, i’m not completely sure if i notice a dramatic difference in my hair’s length. it’s always hard for me to tell, but you can check out the fotki album and decide for yourself. as i’m starting the second month of the challenge, however, i found my scalp to be itchier without the rosemary spritz. my dandruff also seems to be more noticeable, especially around my front hairline. so, regardless of whether the rosemary has made a difference in my hair growth, it definitely is good for my scalp.

side dish: about a month ago, i went to trader joe’s to get my favorite conditioner, trader joe’s nourish spa conditioner. unfortunately, they were all out and only had trader joe’s essential conditioner. i decided to just get that instead. so what’s the difference? the essential conditioner is much lighter, and doesn’t moisturize that well. however, it gets the job done for co-washing, and smells really good. if i had to pick between the two, i’d definitely choose the nourish spa conditioner, but any no-pooers who are in need of a lighter conditioner should check out trader joe’s essential conditioner.
