WEN

[jaxs mom]

I've been asking for this since the kids line came out. Even though the current kids CCs work great for me, there are occasions where I wish we had a higher moisture choice in the kids line. And SB is not higher moisture in my hair. The current kids CC all work the same for me performance wise. I use them all.

The same thought has occurred to me, although for my little girl's thick wavy hair. I considered using the Fig as a leave in, but haven't got around to buying it yet.

I used to have to use Fig. It's not menthol free and it smells like cherry cough syrup ( horrible). I still use it when happen to have a bottle and I need high moisture like after coloring but I'd rather have one from the kids line.

I'm really luck because almost all of the CCs -- yup, I'm the Wen girl with 22 different open 1oz CC bottles -- but I really feel for Wenners who can only use the Wen Kids CCs because these are the only CCs that don't have menthol in them.

I really hope that Chaz creates one adult CC without menthol in it just to see how it would sell. -- I'll bet it sells really well.

@jaxs mom, lol I've always struggled to describe the FIG scent. You're absolutely right! It does smell like cherry cough syrup. Ugg!

I read it here first, before I even used Wen and they were right. Cherry cough syrup. I think it would smell great if it just didn't have menthol. I think it's the menthol that gives it that medicinal smell.

Even if Chaz creates one adult CC without menthol - this still won't solve the problem for all. There will be instantly requests from others, to make menthol free CC, but with a different protein base...... requests for different scents  preferences.... and so on. 

This means, he'll have to come up with about 22 of them!  Which brings another question - why not?  Does anyone know, what good menthol is actually doing in CCs composition? Does it serve have a purpose being in WEN cleanser? If it does, what is it?

He claims it's good for hair growth.

Really? Is it via stimulation? I don't know anything about cosmetic chemistry, but I know - I do not like menthol. Good thing, I can tolerate it, unlike some other poor Wenners, who limited down to WK CCs only. I guess, if I'd have menthol intolerance not just a plain dislike, and occasional tingling, I'd too still use WEN in the form of Kiddy's CC.

Menthol is why I almost never use WEN CC on my face - I can feel it there, and it's not a product I want on my face. But occasionally I cleanse the face with CC.... well, I like WEN.

@sonechko yes, I don't use Wen on my face either. I've tried it though. My skin is really sensitive and prone eczema if it doesn't like something. So I have to be careful.
