Shielo Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner Review Plus a Giveaway! Ends 3/15

Shielo hair care products was founded in 2001, in New York City, after a need was found in NYC salons for more voluminous styles. Fast forward to 2007, when Shielo was available in clients' homes as well. Shielo uses concentrated formulas which are not diluted. They are against animal cruelty and use post-consumer packaging and recyclable packaging.

I started with the shampoo. I first noticed the scent. It's a great scent, almost a vanilla/tropical/coconut smell. The scent is not overwhelming at all. The shampoo lathered very well and rinsed cleanly as well. My hair felt only a bit more moisturized than before washing with the shampoo but my hair is extremely dry and damaged from heat styling. Plus, I hadn't used the conditioner yet.
Next I used the conditioner. The scent was very similar to the shampoo and again, not overwhelming. The conditioner was super rich and thick. I normally need to use a lot of conditioner but with the Shielo conditioner, I did not. It coated my hair very well and again, rinsed out cleanly.
Lastly, after towel drying my hair a bit (as recommended on the bottle of Antioxidant Leave in Protectant) I sprayed some into my hair. The scent was pleasant and similar to the shampoo and conditioner but wasn't quite as strong. I found that it did not weigh down my hair at all which was great. You can use this spray throughout the day as well. Once you have used it, you can style your hair as usual.
After my hair was completely dry, I used my flat iron to straighten my hair as usual.
I really liked these products because while the bottles are smaller in ounces of what you might typically get in the store(8oz), they are more concentrated so you don't need to use as much. I am impressed with Shielo hair care products for that reason as well as that my hair felt clean and moisturized after using. There was no left over residue from any of the products and my hair was not weighed down at all.
