I've been MIA for a bit (a huge bit), and I'm sorry about that.  To make it up to you (and my coworkers and Big Bad Bosslady), I bring you my extremely tardy review of Shielo Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner.    I hope it's worth the wait.

The very first thing I did when I received my shampoo and conditioner was pop the caps and breathe in the aroma.  I do this with most hair and skincare products - my nose is sensitive - and I'll pass over anything that just doesn't jibe with the old nostrils.  I was really quite pleased with the scent of both Shielo Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner.  It was floral without being sweet and herbal without being....Woodstock hippie.  It smelled light and clean and invigorating.  Huge plus for me, right there.

So, it smells lovely, but does it work?  Was my normally straight, limp hair filled with life and volume?  It's really difficult to say.  I used both the shampoo and conditioner for a month, and I was totally satisfied with how clean and soft and really, REALLY shiny my hair was after each washing (and drying, obviously).  After each use of the shampoo, my scalp felt as clean and stimulated as it does when I visit a salon.  And the conditioner worked wonders with my tangle-prone strands, with no residue (seriously, none).  I can't say I noticed any additional lift or thickness to my hair, but it was VERY noticeably softer and more manageable with continued use of these products.  And the subtle scent stayed with my hair for most of the day, which was a nice little bonus.  

Overall, I have been very pleased with Shielo Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner.  It didn't make my hair bombshell huge, but honestly, I don't expect that from a shampoo, or a conditioner.  I expect clean, soft hair that I can't help but run my fingers through, and Shielo delivered on that front, big time.
