Alterna gifted me their Caviar Anti-Aging Clinical Densifying Shampoo. I used this along with the matching conditioner and scalp treatment. The shampoo is a gel-like texture and consistency. The bottle has a twist opening. The product comes out easily and not much pressure is needed. I was expecting a thick shampoo and squeezed out too much my first time using this and the bottle is made in a way that the excess cannot be put back in, so be careful when dispensing. There is peppermint oil in the ingredients and the shampoo is lightly scented with it. It lathers well. There is a light tingle if you leave the shampoo in place and it quickly goes away before rinsing. After using this a few times my hair does not look like the after picture they show, but it also isn't professionally styled either and I think that makes the results look more dramatic. At first I didn't think there was really much difference at all because I was comparing volume, but when looking at my scalp I noticed it was less visible than usual. I have thin and thinning hair so this has been an improvement. I will continue to use this set to see if there are longer term results.
i was so excited t try this as i am 52 and experiencing thinning hair due to hormonal changes -- it was fine for about 2 weeks then the 3rd week my hair was coming out after i combed thru it !! i did read reviews on other sites about women experiencing this as well. a website called 'ewg skin deep' evaluated the ingredients in this product an their toxicity levels were a cause for concern -- endocrine disruption! along with high allergy and irritation to the scalp! no wonder my hair was falling out! i am now using Revita from DB Labs to fix the damage! my scalp is so dry from this garbage product and i never had issues ever in my life with my hair! thanks alot Alterna! Buyer beware! NOTE---i posted this on the Alterna Website and they removed it!

I shampooed my hair this morning and it made my hair feel like it was stuck together and felt like steel wool not soft and silky. Had to wash it out with the Anti aging bonding shampoo.

One of my absolute favorite new products! My hair feels super soft without feeling weighed down or oily. So easy to brush out. It's like magic in a bottle. I struggle with thin hair and this product is perfect for that.

This bundle is amazing. I have very fine hair and this makes my hair look wonderful. It doesn't weigh my hair done like a lot of other products do. And it has a nice clean smell and isn't over powered perfume smell

I can't get past the application of this to evaluate it's efficacy for thickening. It doesn't spread around the hair much, so I had to do multiple small squirts around my head. It doesn't lather much, but my hair did feel clean in a stripped, dry way. Very expensive for such a badly designed product. Boo.

Loved the shampoo bottle easy to access the product and very convenient. The shampoo is great a little goes a long way. It lathers beautifully. It has a light tingling sensation nothing too bad the scent is a beauty herbal scent. It definitely help my thinning hair i can see my roots have more density than before

I haven't seen a huge difference since using this product. For some reason I can't really get a good lather and my hair does not feel thicker it almost feels dry. I really like the packaging and the bottle makes it super easy to dispense but not the right hair product for me unfortunately
Mica from Los Angeles
The lather on this was very minimal, which takes some time to get used to but overall I did enjoy. For me the actual formula seemed a bit drying. I would imagine since it's for thinning hair they avoid adding too many oils, however I would have liked this to be more gentle on my strands. The scent is very enjoyable and doesn't over power application

I'm someone who has thin hair so I'm always excited about trying out new products that can improve the appearance of my hair. After using the shampoo I felt like it did a good job of cleansing and prepping my scalp for the three step regimen.

OMG first things first: It smells DELICIOUS! It smells like a fancy expensive salon spa, I don't know how to describe it but is AMAZING. And of course the line works amazing, I was looking for products that gives more Volume to my hair and this one worked AMAZING! Loved these!

I was given the opportunity to try the Replenishing moisture shampoo for my dry hair and it worked wonders. It did not strip my hair like some others have done. It has a nice clean scent. After rinsing my hair feels so soft and Hydrated. Pairing it with the Foam Conditioner and scalp treatment is a plus.

I absolutely loved this product! The scent was amazing and it left my hair feeling clean and air dried super soft. I don't shampoo my hair every day and the scent left it smelling clean for days after I shampooed.

My fine, thin hair feels thicker after use which has been great since it has been thinning lately with stress . It smells great & makes my hair feels super soft. It works perfectly with the conditioner & the treatment too.
MichaelaRM from OK
Really great shampoo! Has a light peppermint scent but not overpowering and creates a lovely tingle feeling to the scalp! Noticing improvement in fullness but also my hair looks less frizzy, shiner and even scalp looks healthy! Highly recommend to anyone needing a lightweight but hydrating shampoo!
Stefanie from Seattle, WA
I have really fine hair that has thinned a bit from my post partum hair loss so I was excited to try this out. As others have mentioned, it does seem like you need to use a lot of product to feel like it's working but it does a great job of cleansing my hair. It has a really lovely scent & my hair does look more voluminous after using it.

Love this shampoo!! I have thin, straight hair and I'm alsways searching for products that give volume! This line is perfect for that. The shampoo feels clarifying and when you style your hair it feels hydrated but gives so much body!

This is a great shampoo, I have noticed new hair growth and it smells really good. It's also got a good lather so my hair actually feels like it's clean after I use it. It's not too drying either, so my hair still has moisture.
Lynne from Michigan
I have enjoyed using this shampoo. It has a light uplifting scent and it does seem to give my hair more volume overall without making it look frizzy. It has a nice lather and does a good job of cleansing the scalp.

I work out everyday and I used to wash the hair on rotating days bc of how dry my hair looked! It lathers on so good and it makes my hair feel hydrated after washing and super clean! I then follow up with the root treatment and leave in conditioner and voila!!!! Look how sleek!

Let me talk about the pros of this first. I do like the smell and the consistency was super promising. I also like the twist top packaging. Makes everything easier to use in the shower. But let's talk about the cons. This literally disappeared on my hair the second it touched it. There was no suds, no slip, and no clean feeling after using. It made me feel like I needed to use twice as much as usual, and it still didn't leave my hair feeling clean. And it REALLY dried out my hair; almost to a straw like feel. I like the other products in this line, but the shampoo absolutely didn't cut it.

As someone who deals with hair loss, I am glad to try this shampoo out. There's a slight minty scent but does not irritate my eyes. My hair feels clean without overly dry. I am glad to see there is not a huge amount of hair loss in the drain trap after washing my hair. Will continue to use.
Dmytrenko from Texas
I absolutely adore this shampoo!! It makes my hair feel so silky and I don't have to wash my hair again for a while! My hair looks and feels so much fuller afterwards. I don't want to go back to any other shampoo after trying this!

I received this complimentary from Alterna for review. I used to have thick, full hair however after my pregnancies it has thinned over the years. This Caviar Clinical Densifying Shampoos smells great and feels great while massaging into my scalp. After regular use my hair appears thicker and fuller and has less breakage.
Sanjana$8 from NY
This shampoo made my hair so soft and clean. It really helped clear all the build-up in my hair leaving it feeling healthy and bouncy. The shampoo creates a slight cooling sensation which is so relaxing at the end of a hot day. Really loved the packaging too, quite an innovative bottle cap.

I absolutely love this shampoo! I have thin hair naturally but have been having postpartum hair loss. Most hair products leave my hair feeling heavy, but this doesn't! It makes my hair look so much more full! Love it!!
