happywenner,

Sorry about your un-welcome 'follower.' I have one also, not the same, but never-the-less.

Apparently we are providing 'busy work' for people whose lives are otherwise quite small.

Where's the deer?

I believe the class action suit is filed against Gunthy Renker.

has anyone looked into two chemicals in the SAM version or WEN?

one of the ingredients, MIT or Methylisothiazolinone, is toxic. Some exposed to it dvelop dermatitis.

I tried using it but after a few cleanses my hair fell out in clumps and like others thought I was't using it properly

I haven't read all the comments here, but in short, yes, Wen can cause Hair loss. I had to stop using it so has hundreds if not thousands of others. Use with caution.

that's funny. I too have been using Wen for years and I just noticed that I'm bald! Do you think it's the Wen?

I started using Wen a couple of months ago and noticed some thinning on top, in front, within a few days. I thought maybe it was just an initial reaction and decided to wait it out a bit. Like maybe my hair just needed some time to adjust to the products. As of yesterday, I'm no longer using Wen. I do believe that across the board, there are always going to be products that work for some and not for others. But it really bothers me when I read on a forum when someone so firmly states that "Wen doesn't cause hair loss." It may not cause hair loss for you, but it can certainly cause hair loss for others.

By the way, I remember posting about this issue a long time ago and recall so many people were very aggressive and rather nasty about what I said. And all I said was that I was noticing my hair falling out a lot when rinsing.

This product is not for me and I will never buy it again nor recommend it to my friends. if the cost of it doesn't turn people off, certainly hair loss should!

the biggest problem with all the all loss claims is that basically only a handful of the people claiming that Wen caused hair loss ever bother(ed) to consult a doctor to find out if any of the ingredients is/was actually the reason for their hair loss. there are MANY reasons why someone could be experiencing hair loss. i've even called out a few of them and asked them if they consulted a doctor and at least a few of them VERY adamantly stated that they didn't see a doctor, that they weren't about to see a doctor, that they shouldn't have to see a doctor, and adamantly denied that there could possibly ever be any reason whatsoever other than Wen for their hair loss. Many of these same people's complaints online included descriptions of things such as itching, redness, etc - which are symptoms of allergies. Yes, there are ingredients in Wen that some people are allergic to (ie. menthol) yet so many people just can't and refuse to wrap their heads around the possibility that they could possibly be allergic to one or more of the ingredients, so they continue to write scathing comments about how Wen and never bother to ever actually find out what exactly in Wen caused their physical reactions. if someone is experiencing hair loss, the very first thing they should do is stop using Wen and consult a doctor to check for what could be in Wen that is causing a reaction instead of going online and whining . heck, if it happened to me i'd immediately be on the phone to my doctor - NOT going online and whining to a bunch of total strangers!

Actually, going to the doctor and having tests was the first thing I did. However, if you use WEN and suddenly notice tons of hair in the drain then when you stop using it there is no hair in the drain that pretty much tells you its WEN. After my tests came back fine, I stopped and started using WEN about 3 times, thats how I figured out it was causing it. Actually, I hear it can clog the hair follicle and thats what causes the hair loss.

Kerastase makes a cleansing conditioner like WEN and even they tell you to alternate with regular shampoo. There is no need to beat people up for sharing their experience!!!! Just as people come here and share their experience with cosmetics & beauty products, I want to know the pros and cons of everything.

I really don't understand how anyone believes this guy. Why doesn't he do the before and after without PROFESSIONAL STYLING? Because he is full of it and no better than a snake oil salesman. So sad to see a cult following but people are so gullible and stooped.

Wen sells about 100,000 tsv's every time that they have one. If people didn't like this product they wouldn't sell so many products. Have you ever tried it? I don't understand the people who post these insulting comments. I understand that it doesn't work for everyone but many who use it love it. Prior to Wen my hair was always very dry and had unmanageable hair especially during the winter months when it is very cold where I live. Wen has really improved the condition of my hair and I have never used another product that works as well as Wen. People that use Wen aren't gullible but really like these products and wouldn't use anything else.
