Excellent product at a very fair price
Scent: Caffeine
I have been using the caffeine version of this shampoo and conditioner for a little over three months.
I like to give a new shampoo and conditioner about three months before concluding if it’s a hit or a miss.
Originally, I was using the biotin version of this shampoo for approximately two years and was very happy with the results.
I needed to reorder, so I was looking over the other options in this same brand. This brand is considered to be a good quality product. I did do a bit of research before originally purchasing the biotin version.
The biotin version is a lightweight product that did not weigh my hair down with build up over several uses. I ended up needing to use a clarifying shampoo only about once a month, as opposed to once every week.
I have very fine, thin hair and a lot of products I have tried over the years have not worked for me because of the heaviness that leaves my hair flat. I did not have this result with the Bellisso Biotin shampoo.
Bellisso is very well priced, and in my opinion, is comparable to more expensive salon products.
I do like to try new things, so trying a different version of a brand that I was already happy with seemed like it didn’t come with much risk.
Comparing the two versions, biotin vs caffeine:
The biotin option worked very well on my fine, thin hair. The shampoo had a bit of a lower amount of foaming, but it did get my hair clean. The biotin conditioner also worked well, and was easy to rinse out and did not leave a residue on my hair.
The caffeine version is very different than the biotin version, but neither in a good way or a bad way. Just different.
I noticed that much less product of the caffeine shampoo and conditioner is needed to get the job done. The amount of product needed is probably highly dependent on your particular hair, so keep in mind, I probably have less hair than most people.
The shampoo foams ALOT. I didn’t mind this at all. Per the instructions on the bottle, you are supposed to apply and massage your scalp and rinse after 2-3 minutes so the caffeine can be absorbed into your scalp, so having that extra foaming helps. This is meant to stimulate circulation in the scalp, and promote hair growth. If you are the girl that is always in a hurry, this is probably not the version of this shampoo for you :)
The caffeine conditioner goes a very long way, so best to start with half as much as you normally use and go from there.
All in all, I’m happy with both versions and I would definitely consider trying another version of this brand.
I would highly recommend this brand in whichever version suits your personal hair type and needs.
The price is right, as is the quality.
