    So my hairdresser recommended sulphate free shampoo and conditioner. Got salon brand. Been using it for about 8 weeks. My scalp is itchy dry and I have dandruff... ewww... must be the new products. I also don't feel like my hair is washed properly afterwards.

    Anybody have any similar experience?

    is it Kitoko range by any chance? My hairdresser recommended it for my very dry scalp. didnt seem to make a difference and like you my hair didn't feel properly washed. I told the hairdresser said that I mustn't be rinsing it out properly, I feel I was. Im using the new loreal extraordinary clay range at the minute. my dry scalp is a bit better and my hair feels like its washed.

    Thanks Molly, its the Sebastian range by Wella. I continued using it because it was so expensive. Never again! I have dry curly hair, could go a week without it going greasy, now its greasy on day 2. That range obviously just doesnt suit me.

    I have heard loads about the clay range.

    I've been using sulphate-free shampoos and conditioners for the last 12-18 months, and I can't say I've noticed any difference :confused:. My hair is still dry, the roots still get greasy and my highlights still go brassy if I don't use purple shampoo regularly.

    Hi OP do you use much of the sulphate free shampoo when you are washing your hair?. I recently read a blog post about a few different sulphate free shampoos and one common thing is that most of them don't really lather up. So is there a chance you have been using too much product trying to get a lather? I've never used sulphate free products myself.

    This range in particular worked great for me but they have various ones.

    The treatment is unreal!

    I have just started using sulphate free shampoo and i reverse wash my hair. If you just condition your hair and then rub instead of scrub shampoo into your hair I find it works really well just by ensuring the whole head (not roots) has been conditioned then shampoo lightly by rubbing shampoo in and squeezing out the excess conditioner with shampoo along lengths of hair until your hair squeaks :)
