Default VitaminShampoo? I fall easily for gimmicks

Heyyyy guys I was just wondering if anyone else has tried VitaminShampoo or VitaminConditioner? It's packaged similiarly to VitaminWater. It had a free after rebate tag on it so I just had to try it...and no sulphates! Only dimethicone copolyol for sketchy cone ingredients. I'm off to try it now...Wish me luck!

P.S. everyone: I tried it and it was AWESOME! My hair came out so shiny and it smelled awesome. Not stripping or drying at all. I have the pomegranate one, but there's tons of different ones. All of them have protein in them, though, so watch out! Mine has milk protein, which my hair doesn't seem to mind.

But since it's free after rebate, we can totally justify it! Haha I'm such an enabler.

Unfortunatley, it is not made by the same company. They used VitaminWater's look as a gimmick because it is easily recognizable. The company that makes VitaminWater has put a restraining order on this company and is demanding that they change their packaging.

I was just wondering, what business does VitaminWater have making hair products?

BTW, I'm Egyptian, too...and born in 89. : )

Hahah really? I guess I just assumed no one would get away with that. But apparently they did!
