I have been using this for quite a few weeks now and have to say I'm pretty impressed. I'm going to start off talking about the shampoo first. 

The ingredients (stated on the bottle and on their website):

Ingredients:
Deionized Purified Water, Decyl Glucoside (Derived from natural sugar), Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine (Derived from coconut), Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sufonate (Derived from coconut), Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine (Derived from coconut), Cocamidopropyl Betaine (Derived from coconut), Polyquaternium 71 (Derived from plant), Cocamide MIPA (Derived from natural sugar), Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate (Derived from coconut), Polyquaternium 80 (Derived from plant), Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate (Derived from coconut), Melaleuca Alternifolia* (Tea Tree), Argania Spinosa kernel* (Argan oil), Biotin (Vitamin H), Nigella Sativa Oil (Black seed), Phyllanthus emblica (Indian Gooseberry), Urtica dioica extract (Nettles extract), Serenoa Serrulata extract (Saw Palmetto extract), Cedrus atlantica oil (Cedarwood oil), Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary oil), Salvia Sclarea oil (Sage oil), Polygonum Multiflorum Root (He Shou Wu), Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon oil), Hibiscus (Rosa-sinensis) Extract, Nicotinic acid (Niacin), Zinc Pyrithione, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Soy Isoflavone (Non-GMO), Beta Sitosterol, Camellia sinensis (Green Tea), Sorbitan Oleate Decyglucoside Crosspolymer (Derived  from natural cane sugar, non-GMO corn and olive oil), Phenoxyethanol (Mild Preservative), Caprylyl, Ethylhexyl Glycerin, Hexylene Glycol and Citric Acid (Derived from Citrus fruits).
As you can see there are no harsh chemicals that will damage your hair. Many companies put crazy amounts of chemicals in shampoo that strip your hair of what it needs and can actually damage your hair, not help it.

The directions are to wet your hair, work it into a lather and let it sit for two minutes to let it deeply penetrate. It does have tea tree which will give you a tingling/cooling sensation where this shampoo touches. Some people do not like this feeling, as it can feel a bit strong to them. But I personally like it. 

Tea tree has been shown to help with hair growth (among many other things) through out the years and this was also something I learned while attending Cosmetology school. 

This shampoo gets your hair VERY clean. I mean so clean it squeaks. I love that because when you use a lot of products in your hair it can build up and most shampoos will not get all of it out. This shampoo will. 

Another thing I like about this is that men or women can use it. It does not have a "girly" scent to it. I personally mostly smell the tea tree - which can be a strong smell to people with sensitive noses. What I don't like about the scent is that it is fairly strong and it does not go away once your hair dries. 

I would not suggest using this with out using a conditioner after - especially if you have naturally oily hair. I tried it a few times without using conditioner because I generally cannot use conditioner every time I wash my hair due to it making my hair greasy. But I noticed with doing this my hair was greasy the next day. This may be because of how well the shampoo cleanses but when used with the conditioner I did NOT have this problem. 

Since starting to use this shampoo I have noticed my hair is not shedding as much as it normally does, and it does feel thicker. I have tried many shampoos to help with this as I have very fine/thin hair. I have never had such amazing results so quickly with anything else. 

The conditioner ingredients are as follows:

Ingredients:
Deionized Puriļ¬ed water, organic coconut protein (cocos nucifera), ceteareth 20 (derived from coconut), stearyl amidopropyl dimethylamine (derived from coconut), plant protein (naturally derived vegetable proteins), glycerin (100% vegetable base), Argania spinosa (argan oil), lavender extract (Lavandula Angustifolia), Vanilla Planifolia (vanilla extract), PF-64 (Paraben-free mild preservative), Retino(VitaminA), Panthenol(Vitamin D), Tocopheryl(Vitamin E) & citric acid (naturally derived to balance pH).

Again you can see it is all natural ingredients with no harsh chemicals.

The scent is lavender and vanilla. Normally I am not a fan of lavender scents because they are usually too strong. I happen to LOVE the smell of this conditioner. Lavender mixed with vanilla really cuts down the lavender scent and creates a very heavenly scent. Again, the scent does not go away after your hair dries but it does help to cover the tea tree smell from the shampoo.

Again you are to let it sit in your hair for two minutes to allow full penetration. Most of us do not have timers in our showers so what I do is wash first, put in the conditioner and then shave my legs or use my pumi stone on my feet and then rinse it out. 

This conditioner makes your hair so amazingly soft and really shiny. My hair has never looked or felt so healthy with any other products I have used. Normally when my hair is really soft it goes really flat as I have very thin/fine hair. I do not have that problem with this (and it very well may be because I am using it with the hair loss prevention shampoo).

Usually after a shower my hair is not the easiest to comb but when using this conditioner I can take a fine tooth comb through it no problem.  

Both of these products come in a bottle with a pump on it. I know there are people who don't care about that but to me it just makes showering easier because I don't have to pick up and try to squeeze a bottle while my hands are wet and slippery. 

Both of these (along with other products) are available on their website https://www.purador.com/
as well as on Amazon. 

Shampoo: http://www.amazon.com/Pura-dor-Prevention-Premium-Organic/dp/B0079R6BD2/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8 


Conditioner: http://www.amazon.com/Pura-dor-Premium-Organic-Conditioner/dp/B007TC0HIC/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8

They are a BB accredited business, USDA certified organic, USDA certified biobased product and doctor trusted (https://doctortrusted.org/certificate/1249850)

They have also been a #1 Amazon best seller (since around 2012) and a product of the USA.

Basically, they are a trust worthy company!

I highly recommend both of these for anyone looking for organic products that work amazingly.
