Really Fragrance-FreeJan 20, 2006
By A. Chan I used to be someone who tests out different perfumes and personal care products with different fragrance. However, my husband is asthmatic and very sensative fragrances (so are his parents). When we started going out, I started looking into different products that are fragrance-free. And only when I started doing that did I realize that it is not very easy to find them! Many products labeled unscented often still have an odor (pleasant to me, but 'smelly' as far as my husband is concerned!). It always amazed me how he could tell that I am using a new lotion or shampoo even it has been hours since I have used the product.
When I came across Earth Scence Fragrance-Free Shampoo and Conditioner at PCC, I decided to give them a try. And I am so happy with the result. My husband did not complain about the smell because there is none! Neither did my in-laws when they came to visit. And these products are made of natural ingredients and are of good quality so that my hair does not suffer.
I have since then started using their other products. Some of them are not fragrance-free, but the scents are so mild that even though my husband could detect them, they do not bother him.

Love this productJul 30, 2007
By RhiannaWolfmoon I have perfume sensitivities - cannot use anything containing perfumes or even essential oils. I love this conditioner. I have tried several fragrance free conditioners and they either made my hair feel like straw or made my hair feel weighed down & greasy, or smelled off - a chemical/chlorine like smell. This conditioner doesn't weigh my hair down at all, no funky smell (I have a heightened sense of smell so I can smell some things others can't -some fragrance free products do still bother me).

fragrance free but still has a scent that bothers meOct 08, 2008
By carol h Scents give me severe headaches. The conditioner still has a scent so I cannot use it. Believe that conditioners stay in your hair after using even after rinsing. So I cannot use it. But the Earth Science shampoo is great and has no lasting scent!!!

Good for people with (many) AllergiesMar 21, 2006
By N. Snook
"turn off the TV and think for yourself"
After looking for 3+ years and trying over 60+ different shampoos and conditioners. This is the only off the shelf conditioner that works for me.
For a year or two, I used regular soap and just had wierd hair, because I could not find anything.
I know almost nothing about the chemistry of shampoos and conditioners. I have been tested for allergic reactions by two allergist/dermatologists to 3 types of allergy tests, including all "shampoos" "scents" "perfumes". They said "I did not show any strong reaction to anything."
Yet when I use regular shampoos & conditioners, I get rashes, itchy eyes, runny nose, and am generally miserable.
I believe this is because of a combination of being allergic to the scents that most of the companies use and the ingredients. When they use scents like "floral pure and clean", it is just as bad as suave or whatever for me. "Hypo-Allergetic" for shampoo/conditioners means nothing positive for me.
Recently I have found something new that seems to work: extra virgin olive oil.
I found it on some wierd website for women who are REALLY into hair. Since it is tricky to figure out how much of it to use, (it can reallly make your hair oily and I get pimples on my skin) I am still using this conditioner.

Finally, A Fragrance Free Shampoo/ConditionerMay 25, 2006
By David A. Lessnau I'm folding my reviews for Earth Science's "Pure Essentials" Fragrance Free Shampoo and Conditioner together. In a nutshell, if you're looking for a shampoo and a conditioner that don't stink, go no further: you've found them. My wife and I recently spent about 45 minutes going through the hair care aisle in Wal-Mart looking for something that didn't stink. We smelled the contents of every variety in that 25 foot long, 2 sided aisle to no avail. Everything either stank of bubble-gum, fruits, or perfume. I finally found these products here and gave them a try. The shampoo is completely odorless and the conditioner has only a very slight smell to it (it's so slight, it's hard to tell what it smells like, but it smells sort of "moist" (perhaps glycerin?)).
Anyway, along with the smell, I was also worried about it's "sudsyness." No worry there, either. The shampoo works fine. I did have to wash my hair twice to get a full head of bubbles, but that could have been just because it was the first time I used it.
My last worry is whether or not my hair will dry out. It'll take a few days for me to determine that. So, I'll revise this review when I figure it out. So far, though, I'm very pleased with these products and rate them at 5 stars out of 5.
PS: I'm not allergic to the various frangrances manufacturers put into their products: I just can't stand the stench. So, I can't really say whether these products will be any good for those with severe allergies. But, if you are allergic, these are probably excellent products to try.
UPDATE: I've been using these products for over a week now. First, it still takes two washes to get a full head of suds. It's not a big thing, but it is a bit more effort than with regular shampoo. Second, my fear of drying out my hair was unfounded. No problem there at all. Unfortunately, there IS a problem: with these products, it's much harder to run a brush/comb through my hair. It's not that there are tangles or snarls or anything like that. The brush just doesn't glide through like it used to. Since I have fairly short hair, it's not too bad for me. But, my wife, with her longer hair, had to go back to a regular shampoo/conditioner. Because of this, I'd drop my rating from 5 stars down to 4 stars if Amazon would let me.
