I love it

I was really impressed with this shampoo. After the first wash, my hair felt cleaner, softer, and had a nice natural shine. The scent is amazing and lasts for a long time. It doesn't leave my hair feeling heavy or greasy-just fresh and healthy. I would definitely buy it again

Fresh, Clean Hair Every Day

BLVD & CO sent me this Essential Shampoo (Amber Cedar #21) for free through the BzzAgent sampling program so that I could try it and share my honest review. After using it for several washes, I've had a good experience with it. The shampoo has a pleasant amber cedar scent that smells fresh and clean without being overpowering. It lathers well and helps remove oil and buildup while still leaving my hair feeling soft and balanced. I also like that it contains Argan Oil and Vitamin B3, which help keep my hair looking healthy and smooth. Another thing I appreciate is that the formula is free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, dyes, and gluten, which makes it feel like a gentler option for everyday use. Overall, this shampoo leaves my hair feeling clean, refreshed, and light, and the scent is a nice bonus after every wash.

Great everyday shampoo that leaves hair soft

I've been using this shampoo for a while and really like how gentle it is on my hair and scalp. It cleans well without drying my hair out and leaves it feeling soft and smooth. The scent is light and pleasant, not too strong. I usually use a small amount, massage it into wet hair, and rinse thoroughly. It lathers nicely and makes my hair feel fresh and manageable. The bottle is also easy to use with the pump. Overall, it's a simple but effective shampoo that works well for daily use.

To shampoo, or not to shampoo

Slick and slim packaging with a pump that actually works. The scent is decent and pretty original compared to other brands I have used in the past. This shampoo leaves my hair feeling clean and not dry like other brands.

This could work for me depending on price.

I used the product every morning. It smells really great. Lathers up nicely. No dry scalp or itching etc. An overall good shampoo.

Simple and effective shampoo!

I recently tried the BLVD & Co Essential Shampoo and it turned out to be a really solid everyday shampoo. It has a nice gel like texture that lathers well, so a small amount goes a long way. What I liked most is that it cleans my hair thoroughly without making it feel stripped or dry. After rinsing, my hair feels light, fresh, and easy to manage. The formula is designed to work for all hair types and focuses on gentle cleansing while keeping hair healthy looking, which I think it does pretty well.

Great scent and leaves hair feeling clean

This shampoo works really well and leaves my hair feeling clean without drying it out. It lathers easily with a small amount and rinses out quickly. The amber cedar scent is subtle and fresh without being overpowering, and the pump bottle is convenient to use in the shower. Overall it feels like a high-quality shampoo and I've been happy with the results.

For men shampoo its definitely up there

I shampoo and condition daily, so ive been using the shampoo and conditioner for about 2 weeks now. I would like to thank Blv&Co for sending me some men shampoo as we all know its hard to find good men shampoo. Only reason i have 4.5 stars because i dont really like the smell of amber cedar but it feels like water in your hand pushing through the hair. I like how define and bouncy my hair becomes after i use the shampoo and conditioner. Id fully recommend Blvd&Co shampoo and conditioner to every male i know. My hair is also very thick and heavy, and the shampoo cuts right threw the hair with ease

It's almost really good.

I recently received a sample of this shampoo and conditioner set and asked someone to test it and evaluate the ingredients and performance. The shampoo appears to be the stronger product in this pair. One of the positive aspects is that it avoids harsh detergents, which is often a concern in sulfate-free formulas that try to compensate with stronger cleansers. The formula includes glycerin and niacinamide, both of which are beneficial for hair and scalp health. Glycerin helps retain moisture by pulling humidity from the air into the hair, while niacinamide can support scalp health and improve the overall condition of the hair. The conditioner, however, raises more concerns. Ingredients are typically listed in order of concentration, and alcohol appearing second on the list is notable for a conditioning product. Alcohol also appears twice in the ingredient list, which may be excessive for a conditioner that is supposed to add moisture and softness. To its credit, the conditioner does include some beneficial ingredients. Glycerin helps retain moisture, shea butter provides hydration and softness, and Behentrimonium Chloride (a conditioning agent derived from plant oils) helps smooth and detangle the hair. However, the relatively high alcohol content could potentially counteract these benefits, particularly for people with dry hair or a sensitive scalp.

Great smelling shampoo that works well

I received this product for free from my unbiased review. Tried both the shampoo and Conditioner. First off, I like how these bottles are shaped because the design helps it sit flush against the wall. This is convenient for space as well as not having the bottles topple over because you can use the wall as leverage when pushing the pump. The shampoo smells fantastic. It cleans well, but does not leave me feeling too dry. The smell lingers for a bit, but is not too strong or offensive. Overall, I would consider buying this product.

softer healthier hair

Finally found a shampoo that doesn't strip my hair! The BLVD & Co shampoo has truly elevated my routine my hair feels softer, healthier, and ridiculously smooth after every wash. It delivers a deep clean while keeping my scalp refreshed and balanced, and the subtle, luxurious scent makes it feel so high end. If you're on the fence, just get it your scalp and hair will thank you.

Shampoo Review – BLVD & Co Amber Cedar #21

First I wanna say thanks to BLVD & Co for letting me sample this shampoo for review. This stuff cleans my hair really well, but it doesn't leave it feeling dry or squeaky like some shampoos can. My hair just feels nice and clean after I use it. And thats it. But I love that.

Great scent and hydrating

The first thing I noticed was the scent. It smells absolutely amazing. It's fresh and clean without being overpowering, and the fragrance actually lingers lightly in my hair after washing, which I love. Every wash feels a little bit like a mini self-care moment. What really stood out to me is how hydrating it is. My hair feels soft, smooth, and noticeably moisturized after each use. It doesn't leave my strands feeling stripped or dry, which is a huge plus. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it wasn't perfectly compatible with my curly hair. While it definitely adds moisture, I found that my curls didn't always have the definition or bounce I prefer. It works well, just not flawlessly for my curl pattern. Overall, it's a high-quality shampoo with an incredible scent and great hydration especially if your hair loves moisture and you're not super picky about curl definition

Gentle Cleanse with Noticeably Healthier, Shinier Hair

I've been using the BLVD&CO Essential Shampoo for a few weeks now, and my hair feels noticeably softer and healthier. The gentle formula cleanses without stripping moisture, which is perfect for daily use and sensitive scalps. I love that it lathers well and rinses clean, leaving a fresh, subtle scent that isn't overpowering. Since switching to this shampoo, my hair has looked shinier and less frizzy throughout the day. Overall, it's a high-quality, effective shampoo that delivers great results for all hair types.

Great shampoo, love the scent!

I've been using this shampoo for a few weeks now and I really like it. It cleans my hair well and doesn't leave it feeling dry or weighed down. The scent is really nice too, not too strong, just a light, pleasant smell that lingers for a bit after washing. I'm very happy with it and would definitely recommend it to others.
