Inspired by the no pow (no shampoo) method used in the United States, the Low Shampoo* is a new way to wash the hair. Replace your classic shampoo with a hair care product enriched with cleansing agents. It's the new step in a hair care routine.
You will be surprised by its new formula which does not lather! This delicate cleansing cream protects the integrity of the hair fiber even if used daily.
Hailing from France, Yves Rocher carries an affordable range of skincare, haircare and bodycare products. They used to be pretty predominant in Singapore but exited the market and re-entered in recent years. You can check out the range of products which I have reviewed in the past in this link.
Sulfate-free, silicone-free, colorant-free and paraben-free, Yves Rocher Low ShamPoo Delicate Cleansing Cream comes in a 200ml plastic tube that contains the cleansing cream which is thick and does not lather at all. It is inspired by the no poo method which simply meant washing hair with a gentle alternative to shampoo, such as baking soda, apple cider vinegar or just water only, so that one can achieve clean hair without the damage or dependency on daily shampooing. In short, instead of allowing chemicals in shampoo to strip your hair, strip away the chemicals instead and stop using shampoo altogether. You can read more about the method here.
So for those who are lazy with the DIY method of using other alternatives yet like to try the No Poo Method then Yves Rocher Low ShamPoo Delicate Cleansing Cream would be a good starting product.
Honestly speaking, I was pretty turned-off when I first try the product. The "shampoo" or cleansing cream is thick like a hair conditioner ( but not slippery ) and imagine using that on the hair, how can you even get those contents all around the hair, lather and rinse it off? There was no foam at all so the massaging and lathering action were non-existent and its like putting on a glob of cream on the hair and it doesn't move. I tried adding more water and more cleansing cream but it does not make a difference. I felt that my hair is unclean and I dislike shampoo-ing my hair. I chunk the tube aside and move on to other products. That is how much I hated it.
Several months down the road, I tried using Yves Rocher Low ShamPoo Delicate Cleansing Cream again. I am not one who waste products so I don't leave half-used products all over my bathroom. Viola, the experience didn't turn out too badly. I am surprised that my hair can actually take the cleansing cream well, leaving it soft and clean.
I am not even sure how my hair can take it this time round, perhaps it really needs some time for adjustment purposes. Even though there is no foam, but I still try to use it the way I usually lather the shampoo on my hair, not even sure if the cleansing cream gets all around the hair, but apparently it does, because my hair was definitely softer than before. Strangely, I didn't even use more water or more cleansing cream but it works in cleansing my hair. I can't even explain how and why. HAHA!
I didn't use any conditioner because you don't even need one. Yves Rocher Low ShamPoo Delicate Cleansing Cream makes my hair soft and manageable. However, if you ask me if I would repurchase, I really don't think so because, I am not sure if my hair would dislike the experience like the first time.
