What's the most you ever spent on shampoo, etc.??

I just bought Kenra shampoo and conditioner for $30. I was floored and plan on hiding that tip bit from DH forever. But I have the Keratin treatment in my hair so I need the sulfate free stuff..but $17 a bottle.

Re: Most you ever spent on.....

I used to buy the Arctec Kiwi which is about the same I think. But then I got divorced from 1st DH and became a "coupon clean" shampoo gal. Now that money isn't so tight, I still buy cheap, but I would totally buy the Body Luxe shampoo if I just let myself...Chat Icon

Re: Most you ever spent on.....

I live V05 shampoo. It's cheap and works best for my hair.

I used to buy $20+ shampoo at the hairdresser in the City.

I swear by Matrix shampoos and condition - especially their sleek line. I think it's about $15-$20 a bottle.

Re: Most you ever spent on.....

I use Aveda so it's pretty expensive but it really helps with my somewhat damaged hair from highlights. The small bottle is $34 but i buy the bigger bottle on ebay and I get it much cheaper then I would at the salon or the aveda store.

Add yours.



I have the Keratin treatment too ... my my cousin owns a hair salon so I get what I need for free thank god. That stuff is soo expensive.

ETA: I love the Tigi S Factor Sulfate Free Shampoo alot. Not that I think it's cheaper, just thought I'd throw out another brand you may like to try one day :)

Bumble & Bumble was $30 for shampoo, and the same for conditioner.

I was shocked when the lady rang it up, but bought it anyway.

I just finished the bottles, and I didn't really like it.

Back to the cheap stuff for meChat Icon

In the past I think I've spent as much as $30 on a bottle. Now, for $30 it better wash my hair by itself and give me a blow out aftewards! Chat Icon

Re: Most you ever spent on.....

I spend a lot on shampoo & conditioner, probably around $50 for the two on average. I do keep some cheaper stuff (Dove or Nutragena) in the shower too and use that once or twice a week when I am just staying in. I definitely see a difference though in my hair btwn the expensive stuff and some of the cheap stuff.

Re: Most you ever spent on.....

Most expensive is probably kerastase or KMS for me. I usually buy from the salons so it usually ends up being more than $10. But I also usually have a cheaper brand in the shower to use a couple times a week.

Re: Most you ever spent on.....

I now buy shampoo and conditioner that costs between $20-$26/bottle.

I've tried every shampoo there is. Pantene, V05, Suave, Loreal, Aussie, Citri-shine, Mane and Tail, Neutrogena, John Frieda, Garnier, EVERY SINGLE one.

Now I'm trying all the expenisve stuff. I've tried Wen, Philosophy, Biolage and Pureology so far, now I'm on Nexxus. I will NOT stop until I find a favorite shampoo.

My hair is shoulder length, higlighted, I don't use any styling products, it's very fine and it's SO frizzy.

I want to find a shampoo/conditioner that will make my hair soft, shiny, and lovely. Chat Icon
