Garnier Fructis, love their packaging but their product is pretty bad. I might as well use a bar soap on my head!
Patene, it makes my hair fall out if I use it for a long time.

Aussie haircare products (the one that purple kangaroo endorses). Smells nasty--what's worse is when someone walks by and I can smell that stuff from a mile away. Blech!!!

Oh. My. GOD. I hate Pert! I cannot believe no one's mentioned it. It's junk...it just plain sucks. Doesn't do anything for your hair. It's like using a bar of soap to wash your hair.
And Garnier? Garnier is like using a dirty vagina to wash your hair!

Oh I know what you mean, I bought the GHD protection spray too thinking it was going to be the best thing for my hair. It made my hair soo sticky and when I tried to straighten it, it quite literally fried my hair. I had to deal with damage and breakage from the part of my hair I used it on for a couple of weeks. Ick!
Most of the products I hate have already been mentioned. Also someone mentioned Dove, the Dove Repairing Moisture Mask or w/e it's called is horrible. It contains Cyclomethicone, along with a whole lot of other silicone. Cyclomethicone is the type of silicone which quite literally can be a bi*** to wash out..it simply will not even after 15 washes.
Cyclomethicone is also in the Vita5 CPR conditioner.

Everyone's hair is different though so what doesn't work for one person works wonders for another. A lot of the products people have listed here are amazing on my hair. |

I agree with pretty much everything that's been mentioned so far. Particularly the Garnier Fructis (wtf kind of name is that, anyhow?), Pantene, and the rest of the horrendous drug store lines that coat your hair with plastics, waxes, silicones, and dry your scalp to hell with Sodium Laureth Sulfate.. which by the way is the same thing as basically washing your hair with dish or hand soap, and is also used in engine degreasers.
It's been found to cause skin and eye ir[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]ritation, tangled hair, swelling of the hands, face and arms and split and fuzzy hair among other things. It also damages the hair follicle and contributes to hair loss.
[/FONT] I just completely avoid any product with this in it if possible.
I switched to natural products about 3-4 years ago, and my hair has never been as soft, healthy, or shiny as this since I can remember.. not to mention I always had handfuls of hair falling out in the shower, it was always frizzy no matter how many anti-frizz things I used. Not anymore.
there are so many better products out there that work without the harsh chemicals, you don't need them! They're evil!

Oh dear... thank you for this post! I just got a "deluxe sample" of this from sephora for reaching 100 points in my beauty bank thing, and started using it within the last 3 weeks. Luckily I only flat iron my hair maybe once a week, if that. But I really didn't notice any benefit from it at all! I was actually wondering if it was doing anything to protect my hair from the heat, because I expect a product like this to at least make it marginally softer and shinier, but nope -- nothing! It's craptastic, that's for sure. I'm going to chuck it in the damn trash when I clean out my bathroom today!

Yup, Head & Shoulders is one of the worst shampoo's you can use. A hairdresser I used to go to many many years ago said it's equivalent to putting perming fluid on your hair.

Garnier Fructis. The shampoo dosen't cleanse my hair well enough, it stinks, it dries my hair out, and the conditioner leaves my hair dirty and crunchy.
