Why doesn't this company make a matching conditioner to the Awapuhi shampoo? Ive always wondered this. If you read alot of the Q & A's, lots of people ask if there is a matching conditioner. Do companies not realize that's what women want? We love matching shampoo and conditioner. Especially to one of the best smelling shampoos of all time. We want them to smell the same. Duh!

I've used this shampoo for a week, my hair is usually oily and thick.(Men-Early 20s) I realized I was loosing a bit more hair than usual when using this shampoo.

I use this shampoo daily and absolutely love it. It does exactly what it says to cleanse the scalp thoroughly without drying hair. I have very fine thin hair with a somewhat oily scalp. I need a daily conditioner or I simply can't comb my hair. My hair can very easily be weighed down or feel stiff or waxy, but some light products don't have enough moisture. Any suggestions for a perfect conditioner to go with a perfect shampoo? Thanks!
- Asked by Rain
- Official Answer By Paul MitchellInstant Moisture Conditioner is a great moisturizing option for fine hair. Focus the application on the mid-shaft and ends then work up to scalp if needed.Was this answer helpful to you

Awful
Reviewed at
I have been using this product for years. This new bottle design is awful. The shampoo leaks out and the plastic wrapper peals. In addition the shampoo formula is not the same. Bring back the old formula and bottle.
Very Disappointed
Reviewed at
I'm a very disappointed long time customer. I'm not sure why you are trying to pass this off as the same formula but it is not the same! I have an old bottle and the ingredients are different. Some of the natural ingredients are no longer there and what has been added is making my scalp itch.
