Q
Is this shampoo good for fine hair?
Asked by Marta
Official Answer By Joico - Brand Engage
Hi Marta! Thank you for your question. The Joico Defy Damage Protective Shampoo can be used on fine hair. However, if you are looking for volume the Joico JoiFull Volumizing Collection would be a better fit. Or if you are looking for lightweight moisture the Joico HydraSplash Hydrating Collection would be an excellent choice for fine hair. Hope that helps give you some clarity! ✨💕Was this answer helpful to you

Q
What's the difference between the Defy Damage Protective Shampoo and the Defy Detox Shampoo?
Asked by B Lit
Official Answer By Joico - Brand Engage
Hi B Lit! Thanks for your question. The Joico Defy Damage Detox Shampoo includes a clarifying formula that dives deep to leave hair and scalp feeling clean while being gentle on color, without leaving hair feeling stripped or dry. We recommend the Joico Defy Damage Detox Shampoo to be used twice monthly to keep hair free of product and hard water buildup that can leave it feeling rough and looking dull. The Joico Defy Damage Protective Shampoo is a gentle daily cleanser that swiftly sloughs away dirt, impurities, and buildup without roughing up the hair cuticle or stripping vibrant color. Hope that helps clarify! ✨💕Was this answer helpful to you

I was perplexed for months, got supplements, medicine, light therapy, you name it. After reading these reviews I have no doubt that this product is a direct result of my hair loss. There are so many reviews saying the same thing. I feel cheated, and robbed. I would like a full refund if not a class action lawsuit.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
