The company that manufactures Yes to Carrots came out with a couple other lines... Yes to Tomatoes and Yes to Cucumbers.... Purchased the Yes to Cucumbers line at my nearest Walgreens because it's sulfate free.
Overall, it's a great value, free of sulfates, smells great! and easily available either in store or online. Walgreen's will accept returns if you have your receipt, so nothing is lost by trying... Unfortunately, this line isn't moisturizing enough for my curly (and dry) hair; otherwise, I could give it a huge rave or thumbs up. I would have returned the leave in conditioner and daily conditioner if I hadn't lost my receipt, grr....
1. The shampoo... I'll probably purchase this again because I don't have a great deal of demand for a shampoo. All I ask is that it doesn't overstrip, doesn't contain sulfates and this product does very well. Lathers up surprisingly well without the sulfates, but I do have to use a lot... Oh, did I tell you how nice this smells? Hair is left clean without feeling stripped.
2. The daily conditioner. I have to use a lot of this to work it through my hair and it just doesn't live up to my OTHER HG conditioner (Lamas) -- chances are, this will work very well for those hair types that don't require a great deal of moisturizer. Won't repurchase.
3. Leave in conditioner. This was the most disappointing of all... It's supposed to provide intense moisture, smoothing and shine... Maybe for some it will, but it left my hair feeling dry, a little rough and slightly frizzy. The only way I'll be able to use up what's left is to combine it with my favorite conditioner. I may be asking too much and this may be perfect for someone who doesn't require a great deal of moisture or doesn't have curly hair. At least it doesn't weigh you down. Won't repurchase.
Ingredient list for all products in this line... When I run out of my current eye cream, I'll probably try their cucumber eye treatment it sounds absolutely lovely!
1. Shampoo: Aqua (Water), Sodium Coceth Sulfate, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Extract*, Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Peucedanum Graveolens (Dill) Extract*, Capsicum Annuum (Green Pepper) Extract*, Maris Limus (Silt) Extract, Maris Aqua (Dead Sea Water), Punica Granatum (Pomegranate Peel) Extract*, Brassica Oleracea (Broccoli) Extract*, Parfum (Fragrance), Magnesium Chloride, Algea (Spirulina, Rhodella, Dunaliella) *, Spirulina Maxima Extract*, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Gel, Citric Acid, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Almond) Extract*, Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil*, Spinacia Oleracea (Spinach) Extract, Benzyl Alcohol, Lactic Acid, Centaurea Cyanus, Beta Vulgaris (Beetroot) Extract*, Simmondsia Chinensis Cera (Jojoba) Extract*, Niacin*, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) *, Ginkgo Biloba Extract*, Panthenol, Dehydroacetic Acid.

Hi athena123,
Would like to know does the Yes to Cucumbers shampoo which you've purchased helps in hair fall control and dandruff?
I've just started an italian brand L'erbolario products for dandruff control. However, I'm sourcing for alternative shampoo which can gives me hair fall and dandruff control. This is due to L'erbolario products kind of expensive for long period usage.
Thank you and appreciate very much for sharing the review and information. |

Hi Ang, is it OK if I shorten your name to Ang?  Well, I don't have dandruff so I honestly can't say how effective this would be for that particular malady... I'm not sure what you mean by hair fall control, can you clarify?
My hair type: naturally curly, lots of it and I don't blow it out... A minimalist (or lazy?) air dry and scrunch is about all I do to style my hair, which is why my conditioners and leave in conditioners are much more critical for me than shampoo.
Hope this helps,
Athena |

Hi Athena,
Thank you for the explanations and surely I do welcome you to shorten my name.
As for hair fall control, is refers to the shampoo does it helps to prevent hair fall?
My hair type ain't straight nor curly, they have soft curl in it and kinda thick. Guess I'm a minimalist as well, haha whereby I air dry them all the time. I don't style my hair though since it's long.
Regards,
Steph |

I am hair product junkie.
I have a couple of no sulfate shampoos that I like but will keep this one in mind also. The no sulfate shampoos that I like are:
L'oreal Everpure. This has a herbaly mint smell. I like the smell but some people don't.
From Sallys Colouresse
AG Recoil shampoo
Is the leave-in conditioner a spray? Does it have a nice smell? |

It's exciting to hear that they have new line. But I have not seen any in shoppersdrugmart in Canada yet which is the only place that I can buy Yes to carrot stuff. I think Yes to Carrot conditioner is also not moistrizing enough. More interested in the "tomato" line. Hope to see those soon in Canada.
