Re: The before-and-after Wen pictures...

I always prefer the before shots as compared the the limp, greasy look of the after.

Re: The before-and-after Wen pictures...

Yeah, the "We can't make any claims" thing is pretty inconsistent, at best. Jacque was on the other night, can't even remember the vendor - maybe Chaz - and she was acting really nervous about the claims the vendor was making and kept issuing these disclaimers, almost as though they're either cracking down on that or she recently got in trouble or something. But, sure, let Chaz make all these pseudo-science claims about how even sulfate-free shampoos wreck everyone's hair, and manipulate the photos in multiple ways...Oh! And "dandruff" is apparently a swear word. They literally won't let him say it - he even said the other night he can't say what cedarwood oil treats, but for everyone to Google it.

Another thing that gets me about the Wen shows is Chaz listing all the oils he puts in without explaining why they're supposedly beneficial (except that and Tea Tree, for that oh-so-controversial dandruff). He seems to equate any oil with "Good for the hair" (or doesn't, but wants us to), while some natural oils can be quite harsh and/or not right for every hair type. For example, my hair doesn't tolerate protein well, so coconut oil is terrible for it (it's considered a protein-mimicker), and my skin, at least (not sure about hair) does not like peppermint oil.

"Millions of women never heard of wen and use regular shampoo and have beautiful hair"

Yes, which adds to the ridiculousness of the near-cultlike brainwashing the Q hosts and Chaz do about Wen. I mean, women ironed their very long hair in the '70s, probably without using any kind of protectant, and used regular shampoo, and some of them still had gorgeous hair, from what I can tell.

So if Wen really does help women who have particularly unruly and/or damaged hair, power to them; but it annoys me when they make it seem as though everyone needs Wen and shampoo is so evil.

It's their schtick to sell the product. All the hosts do it in some form, whether it's making you feel like "everyone" else is buying the product on screen, or "time is running out" "we only have a few left", "we have over a thousand people on the phone lines"!!

Everything about his presentations (if one can call "fluffing" various women's hair a presentation) is fake, IMO.

Oh my goodness!! Every time I see him walk down the "row" of models and fluff their hair I laugh at how ridiculous that looks! How does anyone take him or that "presentation" seriously?

Actually, this conversation is filled with interesting and intelligent comments and I really don't care much about WEN one way or the other.

Sad for him. Double yawn. {#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}

Re: The before-and-after Wen pictures...

On another note, what bothers me about the before photos where they have used regular shampoo and probably no conditioner, they haven't been styled, but the WEN girls have been. Not a fair comparison. And I am using Wen Tea Tree, every 3rd day then a good cleaning of my hair & scalp with my regular shampoo/conditioner.

This!
