Wen Abbreviations Glossary (older version, Beauty forum)

The Wen abbreviations are listed in alpha sequence by product and then by scent. This is followed by some general information about the various Wen scents. I want to acknowledge the information provided by JeanLouiseFinch, okiebug and valleygirl22 which I used in compiling this glossary.

Thanks Bebe, I still need to look at this once in awhile even after two years because I suffer from CRS!

Now I have a question, the Seasonals (s) are wheat based or soy based? I don't remember.

You're most welcome, but I have to share the thanks with JeanLouiseFinch, okiebug, and valleygirl22. *s*

The Seasonals are all soy-based and all have the amino acid complex in them.

btw, have a great time at your camping weekend!!

These kinds of glossaries are fine for those who are willing to take the time to look at them. Personally, I don't bother. I stop reading a thread/post if I don't know what the writer is talking about with abbreviations. In my own posts, I spell out a term before I use the abbreviation.

EXAMPLE - I cleanse with Sweet Almond Mint (SAM). I also like the SAM styling creme.
