I don't know what it is but I know that it works for me when the ng gets out of control.

Has anyone tried the poo, and liked it?

I tried it (the shampoo) and didn't really like it. It smelled great but for some reason it was drying to my hair out. Maybe I'll give it another go later on... but I didn't really like it.

I have the shampoo and it was alright but I'm not really a person that expects to notice a difference from my shampoo because I'm never just using shampoo without DC's and doing conditioner rinses so if the poo is lacking I don't notice.
However, I'm NOT a fan of the Silicon Leave-in on wet hair, I'll only use Lacio Lacio on my wet hair from now on and I'll use Silicon maybe as a daily moisturizer but my hair was stiff, perhaps too much Silicon action going on and it wasn't a fun process to get it parted with 8 wk's worth of NG on top of that, so won't be doing that again. But it's cool on dry hair.

i tried the poo and conditioner and wasnt impressed with either.
i wanted to be because of the high reviews here but it did nothing for me. the poo made my hair hard and stripped it. i thought i would use it for a clarifying poo but no no...it seems too harsh. the conditioner didnt do much, i dont need to buy it again

Ummm
what are cones? What do they do to your hair 
Cones are silicones.luvmesumhair said:Ummm
Some people love them other try to avoid them b/c they can either make or break your hair.
The make your hair slippery and manageable(for some not all) but can also leave build-up that will clog your pores and the hair follicles, preventing the hair from receiving moisture and drying it out.
Clarifying shampoos can help with that.
If you do a search for silicones you will have tons of threads popping up that will explain this all in detail

I love the poo and the condish. My hair responds well to both.

Great explanation, Ella
Silicon Mix gave me an awful headache for some reason. The smell is really overpowering.

Hate Silicon Mix Leave-In. Love Silicon Mix Deep Conditioner in the tub. Nothing beats this DC.
