I bought this product after reading a review in a magazine. I used it for the recommended ‘transition’ period and my hair is still super dry and sits flat on my head at the roots. To be clear, I have thick hair that’s usually quite moist. Such a shame that something that could be a good solution is so ineffective.

I bought the new wash original and the Lift styling spray back at the end of July. I have always had fine hair that lacked volume. THESE PRODUCTS HAVE RUINED MY HAIR. Ridiculously expensive, but, when you have fine hair you believe the hype and hope to have finally found the solution. My hair is breaking off and I have more hair loss. I have bought a wig and am awaiting a salon appointment to be assessed for a more permanent solution. PLEASE DO NOT RISK THIS PRODUCT. I took the chance thinking that the negative reviews may be anomalies but please believe them. My hair has NEVER been this thin or damaged. IT IS NOT GOOD FOR FINE HAIR.

I went into using this product with really high hopes given the Instagram stories and feedback but I can genuinely say my hair texture has never been this bad. My hairdresser even asked yesterday what I was using as he said it felt very. I have pushed through to 2 months of use and if anything it feels worse not better than the early weeks. I bought the shampoo and styling products so over £80 to make my hair worse, really disappointed.

This is the latest version of low shampoo, which I have tried before. It made my hair very soft and tangle free, but I still have an itchy scalp and it hasn’t changed how frequently I wash my hair. My hair hasn’t fallen out (as some poor souls have reported) but there’s been no miraculous results either. Two stars as it wasn’t awful, but it’s about ten times the cost of other brands, which do the same thing. Don’t waste your money.

After reading so many poor reviews I felt obligated to leave this fantastic review for Hairstory with some advice for people trying it out! If you go straight from washing your hair every day with a sulphate shampoo and a silicone conditioner then your hair will go through a greasy messy transition period that takes 6 weeks (or longer for some people!) to clear up. I think this is why so many people are unhappy with the product at first. This isn’t the products fault! It takes time for your hair to get used to not having to over produce oil. I began using new wash (original) but had already cut out sulphate shampoos & silicone conditioners for a long time. I had also gradually transitioned from washing every day to every 3 days and then more recently once a week. So my hair had already gone through the horrible transition phase. The results I have from new wash are just incredible! It cleans my hair while leaving it super soft and shiny (even through I have a full head of blond highlights). My advice is to get the rubber brush for the shower or a similar brush to make sure you really scrub your scalp. This also helps to rinse the product out properly. For me this product gets 5 stars because it does not contain any surfactants (many non-sulphate shampoos still have surfactants) but cleans my hair while leaving it soft and healthy

I have never reviewed a product before but I am so disappointed by the Hairstory Rich New Wash I wanted to write here in the hopes of helping someone save their money. I have tried 2 packets of the Rich New Wash over about 2 months. My fine coloured hair is more brittle after using Hairstory, the ends seem to have broken off & my scalp is flaky & itchy. This was a costly purchase & I was doubtful after a few uses but felt I should persevere as I had read such great things plus spent so much. I was especially impressed by the review by India Knight, who I typically find honest & has great recommendations. Check out the ingredients; I was skeptical when I saw how many seemed to be alcohol related, something known for stripping hair of life. This has been a costly mistake over & above how dull & ruined my hair now looks.

I had to write a review after reading all the bad reviews. I am the fussiest person on the planet with my hair. It is quite fine and usually lacks volume and is always greasy looking the next day after washing. I started using the original new wash and from day one my hair felt like it has never felt before. Immediately u notice when wet is my comb glides through. With normal shampoo it’s hard to comb when wet. After air drying my hair is shiny, bouncy and I have never received so many compliments about my hair. 6 weeks later my hair is just as good. I also use a few squirts of distressed. All I can think with all the bad reviews is they are not rinsing their hair properly as honestly my hair isn’t easy and hairstory has literally changed my life 😊

I had hoped that this product would help control my curly hair during the oppressive humid days that we experience here in the Midwest. I liked the consistency, scent & the fact that it encourages the customer air dry their hair, that it doesn’t require heat to ‘activate’. After using only Hairstory products for 5-6 months my hair began to fall out; so much so that my hair dresser asked me what I was doing differently. She showed me all of the hair left in the bowl after washing & I was shocked. I told her that I was seeing the same thing at home. She suggested going to a dermatologist to have my scalp checked or to have bloodwork done. I immediately stopped using Hairstory & went back to the products I used before. I wasn’t able to get into a dermatologist due to the pandemic. I’m happy to report that my hair has grown back about 2 ½ inches & bloodwork shows no medical reason for the loss of hair. Now my frizzy locks contain new hair growth & I’m ok with that.
