Burt's Bees Color Keeper: A Wasted Purchase!


One thing I learned from my purchase of Burt's Bees shampoo is, DO NOT completely trust a salesperson, no matter how reputable the brand is. At this time and age where information is readily available everywhere, it's so stupid not to do your own research. Two months ago I went into Burt's Bees shop in Sunway Pyramid and asked for a shampoo recommendation. My request was so simple, anybody could understand it. I wanted a shampoo for dandruff because recently I have a slight problem with my scalp and I wanted to get of the dandruff before it worsen. The salesperson, who was obviously gay, recommended me this shampoo. So far, gays are reliable when it comes to beauty products but I don't know what's wrong with this one! "Akak cuba yang ini, shampoo ini memang sesuai untuk kelemumur." I was skeptic because the shampoo is for colored hair. I wanted something for dandruff. "Tak kak... shampoo ni ada green tea memang akan menyelesaikan masalah rambut ada kelemumur" I didn't want to argue with a gay, most of the time they know better. Seriously! Maybe that guy was not gay.. and now I'm confused. When I reached home, I called the shop once again to confirm. "Ye kak, memang shampoo itu bagus untuk masalah dandruff" And, I was convinced and I broke the cap seals. 

After 4 times using it, I am now in regret mode. The shampoo stripped off the natural moist of the hair leaving my hair supersonic dry, I can't even comb it right. On the second try, I  put on more conditioner and the result was the same. The smell of the shampoo is really nice but it ruins my hair. This shampoo only created a mess of tangles. And more irritatingly, I found no information saying that this shampoo is good for dandruff. It was a totally useless purchase, both shampoo and conditioner cost me RM100++. 

Now, what I'm gonna do with this shampoo? Maybe I could clean my toilet using the shampoo but what about the conditioner.  To the gay who recommended me this shampoo: Do not sell your products just because you overstocked them, you might lose one customer or two over this stupid recommendation. I still remember your face and will not step into the shop when you are around, you b***h!
