Second cleanse -- oh, NOW I get it!

As an experiment, I started doing the second cleanse using half the number of pumps that I previously used all at once. It really does make a difference! I have short fine hair and previously used 12 pumps all in one cleanse. I decided to split that and do two 6-pump cleansings instead. I saw Chaz presenting last weekend and he talked about how people are not getting the very best Wen results if they only do a single cleanse. So, I gave it a whirl. After 3 days of double-cleansing, I am convinced. I was a skeptic, but it really does work. First cleanse was after a thorough rinse as usual, then I worked the 6 pumps in really well and rinsed it out. Did the second cleanse, worked it in and then let it sit for the rest of my shower (probably 7 minutes). Rinsed like crazy and added my styling cream. Adding the second cleanse was the only difference.

And in case anyone says "You are wasting product," I'm using exactly the same amount as I was previously -- just using it in two cleanse/rinse cycles. In fact, in the long run I'll use slightly less, as I had been using 12 pumps plus one as a leave in. Doing the second cleanse, I didn't feel like I needed the leave-in pump. My hair was noticeably bouncier - even more than before!

I'm a believer! I'll be a lifetime double-cleansing Wen girl!
