I'm starting to get real frustrated with finding a shampoo that doesn't irritate me, I'm not allergic to, doesn't have a strong smell, and will clean my hair and/or deal with the crap in the water that can dull it. If I find something that is sulfite free it has artificial colors/dyes. Then I find something that has citrus and chamomile but has yeast and/or other "natural" ingredients that give me red blisters on my scalp. Something that was great for my hair made my face, neck, shoulders and chest irritated since I have long hair, but the stuff that didn't set my skin on fire made my hair look disgusting. The expensive and salon lines are actually the biggest offenders, for artificial stuff and for proprietary reasons don't list everything in the ingredients.

I'd pay $50 a month/bottle if I could two shampoos so I could swap them out if/when I need to. I haven't had a hair cut in over nine months because I have no idea what is in the salon products and since they won't post it online I have to go into the salon, or my new approach, go to the beauty supply store that is also a salon and read labels for an hour. I've been getting by with the Aveda Rosemary Mint faux Suave bottle because it actually has nothing I'm allergic to, and the Aveda salon is 100 miles away so it isn't like I can casually pop in.

I haven't had a hair cut in over nine months, I can't rock the Crystal Gale look when I don't have good hair products.
