Just used Tweak'd this AM and love it! The fragrance reminds me of something else but I can't put my finger on it. Anyway I love the fragrance. I am not sensitive to too many scents. It is definitely a vanilla scent. My hair is shiny and has lift. I have very thick, wavy hair which I wear in a short asymmetrical cut. This product seems to have given me control because I wear my hair straight. I did use my straightening gel and root lift. This is a keeper for sure.

Thanks for the reviews! I received mine the other day but have yet to try it. I just started using Wen Fig, so I'm trying to be patient and let it work before I add something new. I might try this weekend while I'm home all day. I have the nourishing one too, I hope it's nice for my dry frizzy hair!!

Does the scent fade pretty quickly? Lots of people had similar 'scent' issues with Carols Daughter co wash product- it is flowery. But for me, it dissipates pretty fast.

Love reading all the positive reviews - I'm 'there' with the nourishing formula when it restocks!!

The Pink Sugar-like scent is pretty strong, but it seems to wash out and I didn't smell it on my hair once I left the shower (other than the residual smell in the shower). Bottom line - my hair doesn't smell like much of anything after using it.

It must depend on how porous your hair is? The scent remained for me through day 2. It's now day 3 and I'm not really smelling it.

Speaking of Day 3 - hair was definitely bedhead this morning, with a lot of it looking dryer than my hair looks on Day 3 with my Wen products.

I used the volumizing product yesterday and I was happy with the results. I usually wash my hair daily but I skipped washing it on Tuesday and I was not sure I would be happy with the results - would my hair be clean enough? But my hair was soft and shiny, not sure if I had extra volume but my hair usually has a fair amount of volume and lift on its own. I did not particularly notice a strong scent but I am not that sensitive to smells.

I do have the nourishing product on its' way to me so I an looking forward to using the combination of the two versions together. Bottom line is I liked the product.

Received the Nourishing on Tuesday. Used it yesterday morning as directed. I have very thick, coarse short hair and it didn't feel clean felt a bit gummy. I had to use my Fig to finish cleaning my hair and to cut the very strong and annoying flowery scent. Got a headache from that as it lingered most of the day. I also now have a very itchy scalp. Will use my tee tree on it in a bit. Don't know why I bought it. Curious and bored I guess. Love the Wen Fig and have terrible results if I deviate. I had gotten a sample of Ojon at Sephora back when it was first presented on QVC and had the same result. Didn't clean my hair and it felt gummy in the shower so buying this was just dumb on my part. Returned it yesterday. One use was enough.

I just enjoyed my first experience being Tweak'd. Here it is from a guy's perspective. I have short, fine hair. I hesitate to say thinning, but there's one tiny spot that is often visible shortly after a haircut. Hair as short as mine doesn't really need much conditioning, but sometimes, depending on what I use, I can have flyaways, so I use conditioner most of the time.

I ordered the Rise and Shine Tweak'd. This was the fastest hair washing experience I've had. I did the dry application, had my last cup of coffee, and then showered. I was thinking with hair my short, I wouldn't add more Tweak'd after the addition of some water, but decided to follow the directions, but only using one pump each time, and it was luxurious. The scent was very green and clean, but not overpowering.

After towel drying my hair and just fingering through it, I was impressed by the softness. It felt more conditioned than many shampoo and conditioner brands I've tried, and the shine was noticeable.

The volume is evident as well. That little thin spot didn't show at all and no flyaways. I enjoyed the experience very much. I'm a daily shampooer, and I never use anything exclusively, but for me this was quick with great results.

We're definitely on the same page as far as hair type and usage of Tweak'd. I also did not add additional product when I rinsed, and was surprised how silky yet fuller my hair felt. My hair is dry and I contemplated purchasing the nourishing formula, but that would have been way too intense for my fine hair. I do think the smell is similar to Living Proof and I don't care for that fragrance, but this product is a keeper. Also, I need to probably use less next time; the foam amount is tricky to determine.

Only question: Did anyone see where this is color safe? I didn't see any reference to that, even though the product says sulfate-free.
