5.0 out of 5 stars Rich lather, clean hair, no tangles and conditions as it cleans. I'm thrilled!

Update: November 8, 2014: I had been jumping from shampoo to shampoo for years before I found Paradise Island Unscented.

I tried everything from soap only unscented and salicylic acid dandruff shampoos to an expensive thick conditioner shampoo. After I first used Paradise Island, I stopped looking. It ended my itchy scalp problems right away. Better, the super thick lather lets me massage my scalp and work the lather through my hair to get it clean in only one washing. This shampoo throws in two bonuses: no tangles and conditioning that doesn't leave my hair limp.

Just a few notes:

1- Don't let the fact that it feels like a conditioner in your hands worry you. Lather up and, instead of washing twice, massage your scalp and work the lather through your hair thoroughly as if washing lingerie before rinsing. Once when my hair felt very dirty, I did rinse and repeat the lather with no adverse result. I applaud Paradise Island for not encouraging product wastage in order to increase sales.

2- You may not find this, but I'm astonished to find that, depending on how active I've been, I can sometimes go longer between washings. Sometimes twice a week is enough. On the other hand, when I've used it daily because I was that active or got that much dust in it, it still doesn't dry my scalp and make it itchy.

3- I have been using Paradise Island for over three months now, at the November update. It seems to act as a conditioner aw well as a shampoo. I have less breakage and fewer split ends despite the fact that I use a high heat curling iron.

4- I like the availability of the unscented version as I have allergies. Others may like it to avoid a clash with their chosen perfume.

My hair is long -- below my shoulder blades -- and it has always been wavy. Comb out after washing was always a chore. As God's gift of a natural white streak and tip job began to arrive, comb out got harder because the white hair is wavier. Paradise Island leaves the white hair sparkling, but makes comb out as easy as if I had used a separate conditioner.

I am delighted to have found my new shampoo home in Paradise Island. It meets my all of my needs in a shampoo. I wish I'd found it sooner.

I recently purchased the Paradise Island Shampoo in the Tropical Scent. It was stolen off of my doorstep. :( So I reordered and it was definitely worth the wait, but I wish I had found it sooner!!! I've tried other Sulfate Free, SLS free, Paraben Free shampoos but NOTHING comes close to this one!!! It lathers incredibly, and my hair feels absolutely CLEAN, baby soft, has TONS of body and it doesn't feel weighed down! I had been using cheap shampoos, expensive shampoos, drugstore brand shampoos, salon endorsed shampoos, WEN, you name it, I've probably tried it. The end result was always dry brittle ends and the next morning: greasy greasy greasy roots! I've never been able to go one day without washing my hair because it gets so dang greasy. Not to shower you with TMI, but I've always had the grease! But, I've come to realize that it was all of the previous products I have been using over the years! With Paradise Island, I can actually go two days(I've only tried 2 days) without washing my hair! AMAZING!!!!! I love how my hair looks just as great as it did when I washed it the first day! My hair is not greasy, not brittle full of bounce and it is just down right fabulous!!! I can't stop touching my hair! The scent is quite lovely to boot! I also appreciate the fact that the owner contacted me directly regarding my order and that shows that she really cares about her consumers and 100% backs up her products! I never want to be without this shampoo EVER and I can't wait for the day a conditioner comes out on the market! So glad that I stumbled upon this shampoo! Don't hesitate to try it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this shampoo!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2023

I am in love with this shampoo. It works perfectly for my hair. I have very tangly long but thin hair and find a good shampoo that cleanses it, without stripping is not easy. I've tried many brands of shampoos from Ulta, including expensive ones, but nothing really sticks.

So glad I found this one and gave it a shot. It's fantastic! First, it smells very yummy, that hair washing actually becomes an 'aromatherapy' in a way. Then, and this is a big one, I was pleasantly surprised how little of shampoo I needed for my long hair. A small amount produces a lot of foam.

After washing my hair felt really clean but not tangly, which is a big bonus for me. I tend to pull out a lot of hair by just untangling while brushing.

I am so pleased with this product and definitely will return for more.

1.0 out of 5 stars IT'S NO PARADISE (FALSE ADVERTISEMENT)
Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2014

Don't buy this if you, like me has been doctor placed on a zero xonestrogens tolerance in all personal beauty products (in other words any product that comes in contact with my hair or skin). It has been a real challenge trying to find a shampoo that is free of (natural or engineered) xenoestrogen, phytoestrogens or are progesterone blockers So when I read that Paradise Island Shampoo, was Sulfate Free, High Lathering, No Parabens, Phthalates, Dyes, Endocrine Disruptors, SLS Free, Vegan, Natural (Unscented 16 oz), I thought that the makers of Paradis Island Shampoo had gotten on-aboard to produce and sell a non-endocrine disruptor shampoo. Based on their advertisement "they knew what ingredients NOT to use." But after I received the shampoo and read the fine print, I saw three ingredients: Aloe Barbabdensis Leaf Extract, Flax Extract, and Glyceryl Oleate (sunflower oil) that according to Dr. Paul Eckart are all endocrine disruptors, because they are either xenoestrogens, phytoestrogens and/or block progesterone that can result in estrogen dominance in humans. So now I'm stuck with a $20 of shampoo I cannot use and cannot return!

...it makes my scalp SUPER itchy. I noticed it after the first use. Wanting to make sure it was the shampoo and not something else, I stopped using it for a week and noticed the itching stopped. I then used it again after that one-week break and...the itching came back in full force :( I know finding the perfect shampoo for your hair is all about trial and error, but I'm still very bummed I wasted $20+. Two stars only because the scent was quite lovely.
