Does anyone besides me use WEN as a conditioner after a shampoo?

I've tried WEN several times, using it the way it is supposed to be used, but I never liked the result on my fine, straight "aging" hair. I have a big bottle of the Pomegranate and previously had a small bottle of the Fall Ginger Pumpkin and I've used those as a conditioner after using a sulfate-free shampoo. I like using it because it helps detangle my hair and makes it shinier. I use a little more than a tablespoon.

Yikes!!! I have not had shampoo touch my head since 2007 and I would NEVER use shampoo again!! I never understand the posts that say that hair feels "greasy" or "dirty"! I use a lot of WEN when I cleanse and rinse for a while and always, always use at least two-pumps for a leave-in, along with my 613 styling creme combined with my glossing serum. I have fine, long, aging but color treated hair (I'm 55) and my scalp always feels clean! In fact, I recently went 21-days between cleansings and my scalp still felt clean! I know that all heads are different but I don't know how anyone can go back to yucky suds after using WEN exclusively!! JMO!!!{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

Wow! 21 days. I can't go more than 2 days without my hair feeling dirty. I do use a color treated low sulfate shampoo occasionally, especially after using the treatment oils. But, I do like using the CC most of the time.

Because regular shampoo is better for most?
