WEN isn't like an ordinary shampoo so you want to use more of it, not
less. You can never use too much! The more you use, the better the
results.
(emphasis added).
Should I use the Cleansing Conditioner every day?
That's up to you. Some people like to wash their hair daily. Others will go a
day or two between washings. Although WEN is gentle enough to use
every day, if you don't, you can combine 4-6 pumps of Cleansing
Conditioner with a quarter-size amount of Styling Creme in a spray bottle
with water. Shake vigorously to mix completely. Spritz it on 12-18 inches
above hair to provide a light mist. Shake out and restyle or fluff up your
hair!

amount of pumps.

Apply to scalp and hair, adding a splash of water to evenly distribute.
WEN has no harsh detergents or sodium lauryl sulfate, so it won't lather.

I'm posting this note after losing massive amounts of hair in patches mostly
at the crown of my head, with smaller bald patches all over my scalp. Early
this year (2012) I purchased the Wen introductory package (cleanser, deep
conditioner, styling creme, styling balm [stick] and a comb) with the auto
30-day refill. Almost immediately after using the product I noticed huge
amounts of hair caught in the drain (the water in my shower built up to my
ankles so I checked the drain and found a handful of hair -- much more than
I've EVER lost at one time). I didn't make the connection between the
natural Wen product and my hair loss and honestly didn't think anything of it
until I went to get my long, curly hair cut/shaped and was told by the stylist
that I had 'alopecia.' I've never had any problem with hair loss and only the
regular 'shedding.' This loss of hair was way behind the regular shedding.
The stylist showed me a 2" patch at the crown of my head with smaller
patches in the area. I located an additional 5 patches around my scalp. After
a tugging feeling that the Wen could be the root of my problem, I checked
the internet for 'hair loss after using wen' and found many reports of hair loss
similar to mine. And the majority of them sound like my experience. For the
record, I haven't had any medical issues, dietary changes, lifestyle changes
since the onset of hair loss and the only behavioral change I've made is
adding Wen to my hair care routine.
A word of warning to those of you about to purchase WEN Cleansing
Conditioner: Wen is a dangerous product.

My Review
My husband bought this as a birthday gift for me after he overheard me
talking to about a friend about it. I only used it once, but that was enough for
me. In my first use I lost 100x's the amount of hair than I do in an average
shower. I was literally pulling clumps of hair out of my head and I had hair
balls running down my legs into the shower drain.
I look online and found horror stories about people losing so much hair that
they were balding and lawsuits of people trying to recup costs from
dermatology appointments to try and get there hair back.
I called the mall kiosk where I bought it and the cashier said, "I've got to tell
you, this isn't the first time someone's returned the product and complained
that their hair was falling out.
I would NEVER recommend this product and I wonder how these people
can sleep at night with so many people complaining about this problem.

My Review
I used Wen hair care for the first time and it was good till the next week. I
washed my hair and it was coming out. Wen hair thinned my hair and made
it frizzy. I noticed it right away. I'm so upset! I am African American with
long hair, untill I used this mess and thinned my hair!

My Review
At first I really liked this product. Then I noticed my hair was feeling greasy
and heavy. Now my hair is falling out in gobs daily. I would not recommend
this product. My hair is now thinning so bad you can see my scalp. It is
lifeless and lusterless.

My Review
Note: I have very delicate hair!
The first wash was amazing! Then the next 3 times (without using any other
products) there was massive hair loss. I would put in the conditioner and
when I ran my fingers through it to distribute it took me a full minute to get
all the hair that had fallen out off my fingers. Then I would see random
FULL LENGTH hair floating around my car, my desk, and in my eyes.
I stopped using it after the 4th day. Today I received an email asking how I
like the product.
After reading other reviews I will be on the phone with them first thing in
the morning for a FULL refund. And if they dare try to charge me for the
membership....don't get me started.

Craig,
YOU can contact me about my hair loss after using WEN! I have suffered
hair loss and breakage! I have been using WEN for about 8 months.
Thought I was using a safe & healthy product! Saw my Drs. and all tests
are normal, nothing in my recent blood work or physical that would point
to hair loss!
Never made the connection to WEN until I MADE my POOR husband use
it , thinking I was doing a good thing! THEN, he suffered hair loss!!!!!!!
So TODAY, I googled WEN & Hair loss! I was floored when I saw the
MANY complaints of Hair Loss and WEN! Many were told by
dermatologists that WEN causes blocked hair follicles. What is most
alarming is that people have reported that their hair still has not returned to
normal even after stopping the use of WEN! I find that disturbing! They
also said that reported that to the FDA

I hate to wash my hair as there is so much fall out and now I'm stressed
which doesn't help.I only wish I would have read all the other people that are
losing their hair with this horrible product.
HumbleOpinion Jun 02
I have very thick, healthy, never-colored hair. My overall health is excellent
and I am not on any medications. I can confirm that Wen causes hair loss!
Just Friday, after a limited trial of Wen, I had hair falling out in the shower. I
have never exerienced anything like this in my life. I have not washed my
hair since Friday and am frankly fearful of showering! Wen is an awful
product - do not tell someone with handfuls of lost hair how much you love
Wen!!!
Thinning Jan 09
Loved the product at first, but after 8 months, I have lost hair in two spots as
well as at the front hairline. I am sad, my hair has always been thick and
pretty. I can only pray that after discontinuing usage, maybe it will grow
back. Be aware, not a good thing to use.

I used wen on the advice of a family member. I started getting sores on my
scalp and my hair came out. There is something in it that causes an infection
of the hair follicles, thus the hair falls out. stop using and see a
dermatologist.

I have tried two different types (mint, fig) and the first couple of days my
hair was soft, and after a week, my hair was falling out in clumps. My
husband always would ask me "are you okay, I keep finding your hair in the
bathroom"..
I promise you as I was washing my hair, clumps would come out in my
hands. I called and cancelled and even told them I didn't want a refund
(didn't want to go through the hassle of refunds with them after reading
reviews). I still had to pay for the next shipment and called American
express and they had any new payments after my initial shipment stopped. I

I started using the WEN Sweet Almond Cleansing Conditioner about 6
weeks ago. I have naturally curly hair that is very fine, just past my
shoulders. I used the conditioner as directed 3-4 times a week. Soon after I
noticed considerable hair loss. I comb my hair when wet in shower which
was filled with hair. My drain full. I thought maybe it was a nutritional
imbalance. However, I supplement with Biotin for hair growth and never
had a problem with hair loss in past. I spoke to a friend who mentioned she
heard that Wen users were complaining of the same. Coincidence? I think
not.

I order 5 bottles of wen cleansing conditioners because my aunt got me one
for Christmas and at first it worked great so I got more. Then my hair started
just falling out. I mean bad. I'm bald in spots. I stopped using it and hair still
not quite right. There's got to be something done. My hair was so nice and
long now it looks like **. I'm going to talk to a lawyer because I don't even
want to leave the house anymore. Thanks to wen by Chaz Dean.

I purchased this product and after 2 weeks my hair started falling out, let me
first say I have no medical issues and this is not normal hair shedding, I
didn't connect the hair loss to the wen at first, until a friend said do you think
it's the wen, so I googled wen hair loss and there are many women that have
had the same reaction, and before some of you wen lovers comment, some
women after several months are now having the same results (hair loss), I
have contacted the fda and you need to call this number to report it 1-800332-1088, I went to the wen facebook page and women posting they have
hair loss was removed and blocked from commenting, if I would of seen
some of these comments my hair would be on my head and not in the trash,
it was healthy now it's like straw and brittle, I have stopped using wen over a
week now, the hair loss is not as bad, but the damage is done and over half
my hair is gone ...please report to the fda and the BBB, don't let them keep
selling this to others, save someone from this, wish I had found web sites
before I started using it!!!
http://katieelizabethchicago.blogspot.com/2013/12/back-wen.html
Until... my hair started falling out. At first, I had no idea what it was from.
It wasn't alarmingly falling out so I just figured I was just "shedding" more
than normal. When it continued for quite a while, I decided it had to be
something I was using. I'm always trying new products so I cut out every
single styling product that I was using to see if that made a difference.
When it didn't and all I was using was the Wen, I decided to do some
research. All you have to do is Google Wen and you'll find tons of articles
on Wen + hair loss. And sadly, it's true for me. As soon as I stopped using
my beloved Wen, the hair stopped coming out in handfuls.
So this is my warning to women - it's NOT worth it!! I know not everyone

I used it for a while, and it did make my hair feel soft. However, I SWEAR
it felt like I was loseing hair. I know we all lose a certain amount through out
the day, but this felt like a lot. I was in the shower rinseing (keep in mind
you have to do a TON of rinseing with this stuff) and I felt something hit my
thigh. I looked down, and I kid you not, it was a HUGE wad of my hair!!! I
FREAKED after that, and have not touched it since!
http://forum.purseblog.com/the-beauty-bar/wen-hair-carethoughts-466693.html
OK - SAME for me. I was using the fig. At first it was great. My hair was
softer, color held longer (I have fairly thick red color-treated past shoulder
length hair). Then I noticed tons of hair by the drain, clumps of it on my
skin, just like the quote above. My hair was definitely thinner around my
bangs - I freaked out. I wrote to WEN, they answered me with some bs
quote - you lose up to 100 hairs a day, medication use (I don't), ageing (I'm
not that old). I told them I wasn't looking for compensation, just giving them
information and they should quite defending themselves. I was using the Fig
because I really like that smell. I am back to my Pureology and am hoping
my hair will be restored to its original awesomeness before the Wen.

I've been scouring my life and focusing on staying calm while I try to figure
out why I, someone with thick hair who has to get it thinned (and my mother
still does at the age of 67!), have lost 50% of my hair in the past two weeks!
I'm a bit baffled as I am, in general, feeling pretty good.
Out of my research, it says to consider what medication and actions one has
done in the past four months. Well, one thing is I started using this all
"Natural" WEN Cleansing Conditioner almost exactly four months ago! I
come here and see that some others are also describing the same kinds of
sudden, significant and scary amounts of hair falling out.
Two weeks ago, I was using the stuff, combing it through my hair in the
shower and was shocked to see how much hair I saw in the drain and in the
comb and for the past two weeks have been trying to figure out this
miserable corundum.
Unfortunately I had just ordered a new supply, but I will never use the stuff
again! This has been an unnecessary and very stressful experience. And I'm
going to submit this to the FDA as this is a very rough side effect for
women.

I started using Wen a few months ago and started noticing my hair falling
out out in handfuls. I also started noticing a significant amount of hair
breakage. I have a lot of hair normally and the amount of hair loss is quite
noticeable. I stopped using the product when I suspected that it was what
might be causing the thinning hair and hair loss. As soon as I stopped the
Wen the hair stopped falling. I am waiting to see when hair will start
growing back.
It also happened to my daughter, and when she stopped using it it started
growing back.

I tried it also and at first loved it, but then my hair started falling out as well.
I didnt realize until the second time that, that was what was making my hair
fall out. Stopped using it and my hair has stopped falling out. I am glad I
googled my hunch and found this forum, because I thought something was
wrong with me! I also had a painful to the touch lump on my head.

17 of law including Section 2314 of the California Commercial Code, and the
18 Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. 2301 et. seq., Defendant also
19 impliedly warranted to Plaintiffs and Class members that WEN Cleansing
20 Conditioner were of merchantable quality (i.e., a product of a high enough quality
21 to make it fit for sale, usable for the purpose it was made, of average worth in the
22 marketplace, or not broken, unworkable, contaminated or flawed or containing a
23 defect affecting the safety of the product), would pass without objection in the
24 trade or business, and were free from material defects, and reasonably fit for the

The latent and/or inherent defect at issue herein existed when the

20 involving the hair loss, Defendant has engaged in an unfair and fraudulent practice
21 of intentionally instructing consumers to use amounts of the product far in excess
22 of the amount reasonably necessary to Condition the hair for the purpose of
23 supporting its automatic re-purchase agreement. By instructing its customers to:
24 Use 10-16 pumps for short hair, 16-24 for medium length hair and 24-32 pumps
25 for long hair, Defendant caused consumers to use substantially more product than
26 reasonably necessary without any additional benefit to the hair. This unfair and
27 deceptive practice caused consumers to use excessive amounts of WEN Cleansing

The
3 monthly repurchases would not have been necessary but for Defendants specific

As Plaintiffs and the Class show just grounds for recovering money
12 to pay for benefits Defendant received from them, they have a right to restitution

14 implying a contract at law, or a quasi-contract as an alternative to a claim for
15 breach of contract.

24 Plaintiffs and Class members have unjustly enriched Defendant through payments
25 and the resulting profits enjoyed by Defendant as a direct result of such payments.
