That uses Wen as regular conditioner? I can’t get it to work for me as a cleansing conditioner but love after shampooing as a conditioner.

I also could not get Wen to work as a cleansing conditioner. Never thought to use it like a regular conditioner. Thanks for posting.

I've only used it as a conditioner. I just remember my mom telling me never to put something as thick as conditioner on my sclap.

Sometimes I also mix it with a shampoo.  I can't use it alone as a cleansing conditioner either.

Wen is too heavy for my fine hair.

I have better luck with clear shampoo.

I know a lot of ladies love it.  My hair dresser preferred I not use it since it had such a high number of law suits against it.  

 

I do use a nickle worth on the top half and back half of my hair to keep the cuticle smooth.

No your not the only one....I tried it several times WAY back when....sweet almond mint....and fig and tea tree....couldn't get any of them to work for me.  Some I sent back but kept the sweet almond mint and tried using it as a conditioner.  It was ok...but still made my hair feel weighed down and dirty the next day...and I only put it on the ends.

 

It just wasn't worth the hassle and the results weren't impressive enough to keep buying it...I just hated tossing it in the trash ($$'s wasted) but finally got tired of it and did just that.

When I first started using Wen, I had a similar problem.
I felt it wasn't working as promoted.

But maybe it was working out all the old "stuff" in my hair

I'm glad I stuck with it, I love Wen.

 

It's also made my scalp healthier.

I use it to shave my legs.  Works great.
