    Default Cynthia Sylvia Stout

    So has anyone tried Lush's Cynthia Sylvia Stout shampoo?

    If so, what were your results with it? How long did you use it? Did you like it enough to make up for how expensive it is?

    I love it! I remember it working better the second time. May have had something to with whatever conditioner I used the first time, though. Definitely will buy again.

    Right now, I'm using either American Cream or Jungle when I use it. Close to running out, need to get more. Should probably use the rest of shampoo stash first, though.

    It's one of my favorite shampoos. I like it enough to be on my second...or maybe third...bottle. You may find it drying depending on whether or not you currently use/like sulfate shampoos. I wouldn't use a Lush conditioner, though; not heavy enough.

    I hated it. It made my hair feel like hay.

    It reminds me of garbage.

    I just started using it - the jury is still out

    I really, really like the smell. Which is kind of my story with lush

    My favorite poem of his. I can still recite it from memory. We had to memorize a Shel Silverstein poem in 4th or 5th grade and like a dummy I picked one of the longest ones.

    I don't like it much - it makes my hair 'squeaky' and my scalp gets greasy very quickly after using it. I also wasn't a fan of the smell of it. But it's definitely a YMMV thing - I have straightish, frizz-prone, fine stranded but fairly thick, oily hair. And for me it just didn't do the trick.

    Hoping for tailbone plus length hair for Christmas!
