So, the shampoo I use is Nature's Gate Daily Herbal Shampoo. I've used this shampoo since, I am not even kidding, I was like eight. This week when I went to buy shampoo, I find that it is now NEW AND IMPROVED with seven botanical hair enhancers! Panthenol, borage oil, jojoba, a bunch of other junk - I'm unenthused but it doesn't seem deadly so I buy it anyway. Girl's gotta wash her hair, right?

Well. I went to use it this morning, and it's awful. It's the consistency of phlegm - I had to double-check to make sure I didn't accidentally buy the conditioner. It weighed my hair down something fierce, and now I look like something out of the bad-trip half of the Sixties. Worst of all, though? The thing that makes me inclined to abandon it entirely instead of sticking it out and seeing if it will work eventually? They took away the sweet-herbal scent (which I think was mostly yarrow, rosemary and lavender) and have replaced it with the chemical scent of paraffin wax. Instead of like a sunny garden, my hair smells like a fucking dollar store candle. I can smell it even though I spritzed my hair with Lust in an effort to get rid of it. I might as well have used Pantene - I could have had the same lousy results for half the price!

It's official, Nature' Gate. I fucking hate you and what you've done to my shampoo. And also, I have no clue what I'm going to wash my hair in now. I used that shampoo because everything else I ever tried sucked.

This has ruined my whole day. I'm going to be sulky and crabby all day because of it. In conclusion, grr.
