I tried this product after reading your article. I love it…I did the big chop in July 2009 and after using this product for a week about every other day it became softer and more coily. I also purchased the other mud consitioner and my hair loves it. The shampoo is gentle as well. However Nexxus’s Therapy Luxury Moisturizing shampoo works very well at retainig the hair moisture and giving it a good clean without using a lot of product. Thanks for the reviews..it does help. Also this might not work for everybody but ever since I started washing and deep conditioning my hair more often the growth has been phenomenal.

@Nicole – The likely answer you will get is as far as preservatives go, the proven most effective types are formaldehyde releasers such as imidazolidnyl urea and diazolidinyl urea (which you will find in many products including the Aveda line). The other proven preservatives are parabens.

Great review. I love Yes to Carrots, they work like magic for me, but their conditioners tend to contain imidazolidinyl urea (this one does). Imidazolidinyl urea is used as a antimicrobial, but it is also slowly releases formaldehyde. I tried emailing them to ask about it, but got no answer (not surprised). Ironically enough I plan on calling them tomorrow. It’s not like companies don’t use formaldehyde in other products, many nail polishes for example, but some people might be less interested in the product because of it, just an FYI.
