For years, I’ve always wondered which shampoo is good for me. I, like many women, have color-treated hair, but I don’t think of that as the defining characteristic. I also have some light curls, and my hair is fine. So, finding the right shampoo is always a challenge.
Pantene, a brand I’ve used before, understands that women have a hard time finding just the right formula, so they offered me a Pantene Scientific Hair Test Kit so I could learn which formula was best for me. After completing all of the “tests” which included measuring the diameter of my ponytail and checking to see if a piece of color-treated hair sank quickly in a glass of water, I determined that I really have fine hair. While I often thought my hair was color damaged, the reality is that it’s quite healthy, and needs more body.
I’ve been using the Pantene Fine Hair Shampoo for about a week now, every other day (on the off days, I’ve been using my beloved Wen) and I like the body that the shampoo gives me. It’s definitely something I’ll add to my shampoo rotation.
You can find Pantene at any drugstore or mass retailer.
Disclosure: I received the Pantene Hair Kit, along with a $25 gift card from Pantene through MyBlogSpark.

That sounds really cool! I might need to check that out–I’ve always assumed I have dry hair since I have dry skin, but I have really thick hair, too, so I’m often torn by what to buy. I also commit the horrid sin of purchasing 2-in-1 shampoo/conditioner. My girlfriends say I should be ashamed to have it in my grocery cart, but I get wicked lazy when it comes to my hair, so I like the quick fix.
I might have to check out the kit. I never wondered whether or not my hair sinks…
Pantene hair products are bad for your hair. It may seem good but the plastic substance it contains really just puts a waxy coat on your hair, leaving your true hair damaged.
