I recently tried four products from Pantene’s Customized Hair Solutions line for fine hair. Pantene formulates items for fine, medium, thick, colored, or curly hair. I chose the formulation for fine hair since, although my hair is rather thick, its texture is fine. Also, products made for fine hair tend to work best with my somewhat oily hair.

The shampoo and conditioner from the line worked quite well for me. The shampoo cleanses well and did indeed add a good amount of volume to my hair. The conditioner detangles quite well and kept things from looking frizzy. Overall, I got a smooth look from it but my hair did not look flat. Although Pantene makes a formulation for color treated hair, the fine hair products can also be used with color treated hair.
I also tried Pantene’s hair spray and root lifter spray gel for fine hair. The hair spray was pretty standard. I liked it, but I don’t know that it added anything extra for fine hair over other hair sprays that I own. It held well and did not feel sticky.
What I really liked was the root lifter gel. This light spray gel did a good job at lifting for styling and did not feel heavy or sticky the way some gels can. The spray is convenient, and it was easy to control the amount of product used. Because the product is quite light, it doesn’t weigh down fine hair.
Pantene products can be found at most drugstores, grocery stores, and big box retailers.

. I’m constantly looking for the perfect shampoo and conditioner and Arbonne made me rather happy with their FC5 items.
is color safe and moisturizing, without being too moisturizing—just what I was looking for. I have had oily hair lately, despite having highlights, and most shampoos formulated to deal with oil will strip color or make my ends too dry. So, the Arbonne shampoo was a decent middle road for me. The shampoo is fairly low lather, but not no later, and feels thick and rich. The smell is a bit interesting though, and was a bit strong for my tastes. It is kiwi, which I’m not a huge fan of. But it won’t keep me from otherwise using, liking, and recommending the product.
is medium in texture. While the Arbonne conditioner doesn’t seem like it will detangle well when initially applied, it does a bang up job at it when rinsing. Like the shampoo, it also provided a nice middle road for me. I felt that I got sufficient detangling and moisture, yet my hair did not quickly get oily like it would with many other moisturizing brands. The scent from the conditioner was also not nearly as strong as it was with the shampoo.
