Dallas Thickening Shampoo

I have fine, flat hair. I’m always looking for a low-effort (aka: lazy) way to give it some volume & LIFE, especially since I wake up for work before 4am, and just want to get ready & out my door in 40 mins. So, volume/texture shampoos. I’ve been disappointed by 99% of the offerings out there, but R+Co’s Cactus Texturizing Shampoo is my holy grail shampoo. I use it every other day, and it gives my hair some much needed “grit” & grip. I can’t skip too many washings, because fine hair gets greasy & even flatter when dirty, so faux-dirt is my jam. So, I was hoping Dallas would work as well as Cactus does. Unfortunately, it just...doesn’t do much. It leaves my hair too soft, and flyaway. I didn’t expect the gritiness of a texturizing formula, but I expected SOME sort of change to my hair. Whomp whomp. It does smell incredible, however. But I’ll stick to Cactus, and keep looking for my HG volumizing shampoo.

I purchased this on a whim bc I use another product from the company and like it. It works well. I have grey thinning hair and I definitely feel the volume after I wash with this. It might be partially due to the surfactants, but I do not think my hair feels stripped, so it gets the job done. gently
