Now by the end of this one, you're going to know if The Ordinary's
brand new shampoo and conditioner is really worth your cash.
Hyped or overhyped?
Hello, hi.
How are you?
I'm Robin.
Welcome back or welcome to my YouTube channel.

So, this is the first time ever I have put my name down on a
waiting list for a hair product.
I've always thought, I'll just wait until it comes back in, but there has
been so much buzz about these products.
This is the brand new, The Ordinary Cleanser Shampoo and Conditioner.
Now, what is the hype around this?
Now, The Ordinary is a skincare brand.
They are huge and create some really great products that are really great budget.
And I should say straight up on this, these are £6.80 each.
£6.80 for 240mls.
All links below in the description.
Whenever I find the best prices, I'll update them.
They're also on my website, manforhimself.com, which has the
review you may already have seen.
So the price point is good.
Also The Ordinary are switching things up a little bit.
We're in quite a trend at the moment where everything is bad.
And sulfates, parabens, anything which is not natural or organic
or whatever else is trendy is bad.
But The Ordinary have actually said, well actually, this has got sulfates in it.
It's got 4% sulfates.
It's not the usual SLS.
It is SLES-2.
What does that mean?
Essentially, it is a milder sulfate.
What is a sulfate, I hear you ask?
If not, then I'm going to tell you.
A sulfate really is what we get in a lot of shampoos and conditioners.
It's a thing that provides that foam.
It will pick up and pull out any oil and any dirt.
Now what's bad about them is that sulfates tend to work so
well that they don't discriminate between the good and the band.
So they really just are like, hey, we're going to take that.
I'm going to take it out.
What that means is, some people tend to get irritation
because it pulls too much out.
It can also be quite drying on the hair.
Your hair can be really squeaky clean, or it can damage the scalp.
So a lot of brands have said, we are sulfate free.
We're doing this.
So you won't get any of that sort of foam.
I don't mind the sulfate, but The Ordinary have decided here quite
cleverly, I think, that they've said, we're going to keep sulfates in because
actually they do a job, but we're going to make sure that those levels
are exactly where they need to be.
Not anything above and not anything below.
And what that's giving you is this shampoo.
So I think this is pretty good actually.
It's more like a sort of watery consistency.
Get it into the hair, lather up, really light lather and then rinse it out.
The hair feels clean.
This scalp feels clean.
It doesn't feel tight.
It doesn't feel squeaky clean, barely get squeaky, clean hair.
It is bad, stop.
And it does feel good.
Now I've used this by itself and then I've also used it with a conditioner.
Again, we've got percentages, we've got chemicals, we've got ingredients on here.
If you are interested in that, I have the full ingredients
breakdown on manforhimself.com.
I'll give you the link, stay, and then you can check them out.
And, but essentially this is a mild conditioner, meaning it's
not going to wear the hair down.
Often or not with a lot of conditioners, you might feel that they're really
just chucking loads and loads of stuff into the hair and it can wear it down.
It can feel oily and it can feel greasy.
And this is not doing that.
Now in the same sort of way, it's not making your hair light and flyaway.
It's just, again, doing exactly what it should do.
Now, what I think is actually quite exciting about this is
when I used it afterwards, I didn't think, oh my God, wow.
That's amazing.
Nor did I think, oh God, I didn't like this.
It just really did as it should.
So for me, I was like, oh.
Right, okay.
Well that worked.
That's how it should be.
And this is a really great day to day shampoo.
I have some of my favorite volumizing shampoos.
I've got some of my favorite thickening shampoos.
I've got detoxifying, I've got clarifying, but for a sort of every day or every
second day, every third day, I've done videos on how often to wash your hair.
You've seen them, if not check them out.
But this is just really great for one of those days that you're
like, I just need to wash my hair.
I don't want any fuss.
I don't need all those extras.
And I think these are great.
Great price point.
Hyped or overhyped?
It's hyped.
It's really, really good.
And I just like, like The Ordinary have said, like, do you know what?
Sulfates, we're going to put them in.
And so what?
But I absolutely love The Ordinary and I love this new launch.
Really, really solid, all linked down below.
