Review (4/5): Great shampoo, crappy bottles and pumps...
I can't speak to whether or not the product sold from Amazon is fake or not, as I don't order it from here. I usually buy it from the salons or from trusted sellers on Ebay for a much more reasonable price. Having said that, I really like this shampoo. It smells amazing, the lather is plentiful and silky, and I can genuinely say that my hair does feel a bit thicker. While I don't think this shampoo has caused new hair growth, I do feel as if it's strengthened each individual strand to give my hair a slightly fuller look. Don't get me wrong...it's not an Earth-shattering change, but it's a step in the right direction.
The reason this didn't get 5 stars is because every single shampoo bottle I have ever purchased has been faulty. They leak, the pump either breaks or doesn't work from the start, and the plastic is flimsy. If it's been mailed to me, it inevitably leaks all over the package and I lose a substantial amount of product, which is pretty frustrating.
Overall though, a great product!
