    I purchased WEN a few weeks ago and it has gone in the bin already!!! My hair has never been dryer or flatter!!! I was hoping my hair would be as bouncy and shiny as Alyssa Milano in the ad but no, it's the worst it's ever looked!!! Such a waste of money. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS!! If you like having crap hair and wasting money then this product is perfect for you. If not then don't bother!!! Terrible!!!

    My mom and I ordered Wen kits and tried it together and it was really great for the first week, after that it went bad. Our hair started to fall out and two months went by, more and more hair kept falling out. Handfuls in the shower and our brushes had filled up after brushing from the shower. Also, all through the day, hair every where.

    We both (HAD!!) thick hair, well, not any more. It's half the thickness it was. Two months is all it took to lose half of the thickness in our hair. We canceled, nobody should use this product, also not to mention how it burned our scalps and eyes. I think they need sued or to give apologies and refunds!!! Never ever again will we use Wen hair care again.

    I started using Wen about 2 mos ago and it has been one of my worst decisions. My hair started to fall out. The products are supposed to make your hair manageable but it did the opposite for me. I can't recommend to anyone not to use as you have people that swear it worked for them but I will not use that product again! I am glad I was able to cancel without any problems and they even refunded the full purchase price.

    I have been using WEN for about six months and I have been seeing hair loss. I didn't think it was the WEN. I do have a thyroid problem but it is under control. I was giving a bottle to my daughter and she said please read the reviews and I did. They sound like what has happened to me. My hair is fine but never as thin as it is now. I'm so glad my daughter told me otherwise I would still be using it. Also I kept getting shipments until I went online and stopped them. I'm sorry I tried it. Thinning in FL.

    My wife purchased a one time $39.95 product with these criminals in June 2015. The following month they withdrew two transactions from our account for $44.94 each without our consent and we did not receive any product. We called customer service and complained. They apologized and said they would refund the amount. July 2015 same scenario, unauthorized transaction for $44.94 x 2 and no product. Again we called and complained. They apologized and said they would refund the money. August 2015 the exact same scenario with the exact same results. Fully believing these people have absolutely no intention on removing the auto-ship/auto-bill I have filed a claim with our bank, stopped all payments to this company and took the time to track down their corporate office and file a claim against them through the Better Business Bureau. I highly recommend anyone having the same issue with these unethical people do the same.

    I used Wen for almost 2 years, and I have lost about 60% of my hair. I have seen a doctor to make sure nothing else is the culprit, but all signs point to Wen. It does make my hair look amazing, but I have had to cut it very short due to hair loss. I ceased using it, and it still has not started growing back to the thickness it once was. I do not recommend this product to anyone. Don't be fooled by the great hair results because in the end, you will have the volume of a 90 year old.

    I have been happily using WEN cleansing conditioner for 4 years. I have read the reviews and know about the hair loss but that was not a problem until recently. I always purchase WEN from QVC in the gallon pump because of the value. Within the last 3 weeks after opening the new bottle, I have noticed that my hair is no longer soft and voluminous but dry, brittle and thinning at my temples. I have to ask what has changed in the formula of the previously wonderful shampoo/conditioner. I have contacted the company with my questions and have not received any response. I will never recommend this product and will never replenish. It is poor form for a company to not notify its clients that there has been a formula change and a risk of thinning hair. Shame on you WEN. No longer a fan.

    I started using the Wen products and within 2-3 weeks I started to notice quite a bit of hair loss even to the point to where my spouse asked me if something was wrong because I was losing so much hair. I use to have long, curly, red hair. I have now very thin and stringy red hair. I went to my stylist after the 3rd week of using the Wen products. She was astonished by what my hair looked like. She asked what had happened and I told her that I used Wen products. She immediately told me to stop using those product and advised me of the many adverse problems associated with the Wen products. Needless to say I am beyond pissed off as my once beautiful curly hair is now a flat, lifeless, dull mess. Hopefully my stylist with the products she advised will bring life back to my hair. This product should be pulled from the market and I am going to pursue legal advised for damages and most of all false and misrepresentation!!

    This company is 100% scam. They get you to try their product then enroll you into a very expensive subscription. Trying to cancel your subscription is difficult and customer service is horrible. Never trust a company that doesn't post their address online to return their product. They do everything possible to not give you your money back or keep your subscription open.

    Today was the final straw. I have been unable to login to my account on their website since early August. I have contacted them six different times. Today was the final straw. Every single time, they verified my email. Every single time, they verified my name and address. Every time, they gave me a workaround, which didn't work. And every single time, except for the last call, the representatives have read from a script. I am beyond frustrated.

    I tried to login with my email and password, their system generates an error message that my email address is not on file. I try logging in as an unregistered customer with my account number and it tells me that there is a customer with that account number already in existence. During my first two calls, they told me there was system problems and to please be patient. The next two calls, I was told that I would receive an email with a temporary password. No email was ever received. The fifth time (today) they escalated my call, only I got hung up on during the transfer. The sixth time, FINALLY, someone spoke plainly to me. They did a system upgrade. Something went wrong. Numerous customers are unable to login. This final person, on this final call, was the first one to NOT read from a script. I thanked them and told them that I appreciated it.

    I did however cancel my account because I am frustrated with not having the ability to login to their website. I am frustrated that they insisted I allow them to handle whatever I needed to do on the website. I just wanted to look at the product and make changes if necessary. I couldn't even look at my options. Utterly frustrated, I thanked the final representative for speaking plainly to me, but canceled my account. I don't know that I'll ever go back to that website.

    My account always had a separate billing and shipping address. In January of 2015, I had to update my credit card information. I couldn't do this online (because NOTHING works online, and I have been complaining to them about this all year, but nothing has been fixed), so I called customer service. I gave them my new credit card information and told them nothing else had changed. For some reason, they changed my shipping address to match the billing address (even though I never told them to do so). When I didn't receive my next shipment, I logged into my account online and saw they had the wrong shipping address, so I called them again. I told them they needed to fix my shipping address. They said they would change it and resend my package. I never got anything, so I called them back. They apologized and said they would fix the address and resend the package.

    The package STILL did not go to the new, correct address, and they omitted two items from my kit. I called to complain about them still sending my shipments to the wrong address and the missing items. They assured me they changed my address and said they would ship the missing items. Guess what? They shipped TO THE WRONG ADDRESS AGAIN!!!

    I was furious at this point. I told them my online profile still showed the wrong shipping address (and I still could not update it), and the packages keep going to the wrong address. They wrote back saying they have my correct shipping address on file, so I replied and told them obviously something is wrong, because I'd been told several times that they have the right address, but it NEVER goes to that address! I told them if this is not fixed, I would be forced to cancel my subscription. They replied saying they would submit my case to a higher authority, as clearly, there was a technical glitch somewhere. Five days later, I received a notice that my account had been cancelled per my request. I NEVER REQUESTED THAT!!! I only said I would cancel IF they continued to ship to the wrong address. This is the most unbelievably horrendous customer service ever!!!

    Ordered the Wen system for my hair. I used it for about two months and noticed that my hair was a lot thinner than normal and I have baby fine thin hair. Got online to see if anyone else was having the same experience. Lo and behold I'm finding out there are ingredients that are different depending on where you bought yours.

    I had several changes in my life happening and I was really baffled by my major hair loss. I had only ever experienced this with major health issues such as major surgery or drastic weight loss, neither of which occurred this year. Right before I moved, I ordered Wen and started using it right away. Within 2 weeks of beginning use and packing/unpacking relocating etc., I noticed tons of hair in drain and in my brush during styling. I thought it was odd, but then it got worse and worse and worse. The more I continued using this product, the worse it got. But it really didn't cross my mind that it could be my hair product. I was seriously concerned about my health, worried that I had an internal issue and feared the worse, knowing from past experience, this ONLY ever happened when my body was deficient of nutrients, and put it to stress, that MUST be the culprit. Until I started researching WEN Haircare.

    It turns out that this is an alarming and common problem reported by people using this product! How come this side effect is not a warning on this product? I have experienced MAJOR hair loss, to point of having to change my hairstyle, I have very little hair left around my hair line and you can literally see my scalp when I wear my hair up. How is this product even legal with this major side effect? Chaz Dean owes a huge apology to the users who have suffered this when the guise of the solicitation is IMPROVED hair health. This could not be further from the truth. It will take nearly a year for all of my hair to grow back to the condition it was in before I began using this product. This has been my experience and I have my daughter as my witness to the stress this has caused me.

    I choose to use Wen because I was trying to grow out my fine, naturally blonde hair. Using this product increase the texture and strength of my hair making it possible to get my hair to grow without getting thin and limp at the ends. It is expensive. But when I read the reviews, many people complain about this price, not the product. Or they don't like the price, therefore fault the product. If you want the results, you have to pay the price. If you're not seeing the results, you are most likely using the product incorrectly.

    Started using the Wen cleansing conditioner products September 2014. The starter kit was a gift to myself for my birthday. Then received it regularly. Loved the cleansing conditioner at first. Didn't use it everyday because of the cost, however used it 2-4 times a week. Have been using the product fairly frequently for the last 9-10 months. Over the last 6 months however, have been experiencing tremendous hair loss. Hair comes out in gobs when brushing it getting out of the shower and throughout the day. My hair is now almost about half as thick as it was before!! You can actually see my scalp. I'm so overwhelmed and upset I cancelled my Wen subscription (which was a feat in itself let me say) and stopped using it. I figure that Wen has to be what's causing my hair loss.

    I am healthy with no health conditions, and take no medications. I am 47 and still have a menstrual cycle and I'm not in menopause. I've come to the conclusion that the Wen products can be the only thing causing this horrible hair loss. I pray that the hair loss stops and reverses itself. I have very long hair that I've been growing for two years to eventually cut off and give for cancer patients. I'm so upset and devastated at this hair loss! And I have like 5 bottles of this stuff left but can't do anything with it... I wouldn't even give it away for someone else to experience what I have!

    Please, I beg you, DO NOT buy from this sham of a company. They like to send you kits that you didn't ask for and charge your credit card. I had to pay overdraft fees because they charged me an additional $44 after the initial bottle. They said I was up for an "automatic renewal program," and then sent me a "3 month kit," which according to them, I owe $119 for. They are sneaky and don't let you know upfront that they work this way. Also, the stuff people are saying about their hair falling out is true! My hair has a patch in the front that is noticeably thinner. I have never HATED a company so much in my entire life. What a waste.

    I used it for one week and found my hair was indeed much softer. But I dreaded using it because it smelled like I was using Vicks vapor rub to clean my hair and the next day it would not smell clean. Washing every other day made day two even worse! Then I decided to read other reviews and found overwhelming numbers of gals and guys with hair loss problems as well as overwhelming billing issues. That was the final straw that convinced me to stop using it before I had one or all of these problems at my doorstep.

    To really cinch the issues was finding out Guthy Renker was the company handling customer service for WEN. Years ago I purchase make up, skin care and other products Guthy Renker handled and I had only bad experiences, no positive at all dealing with that company. That would be another story.

    I've been using Wen for several years, my hair is naturally wavy and dry so the fig formula is best suited for my hair. My hair is softer and more manageable than with other products. I don't like the price or the hairspray but the cleansing conditioner is great. Especially if you leave it on for an hr as a deep conditioner treatment. When my hair fell out it was because I developed hypothyroidism. I encourage everyone with hair loss to get a blood test to check the thyroid gland.

    THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO MY HAIR. I have tried EVERYTHING! I have naturally curly fine hair. It frizzes and also will pull flat if I let it grow too long. Eliminating the sodium laurel sulphate was on my agenda and when I tried WEN I was so happy with the results I have not stopped using it. My hair condition is so improved and even if I cheat and use hotel shampoo for a night, the WEN product restores my hair to perfection. EVERYONE has commented and asked me what I did. I tell them I started using WEN. I could not be happier. The negative reviews I read can only mean improper use of the product. Thank you Chaz Dean. I am hooked!

    I started using WEN and liked it! It gave me body and it was soft!! I did have some build up in the beginning, but it sort of took care of itself after a couple weeks. By the 3rd week my hair started falling out so bad! Handfuls at a time. I didn't stop right away (should have) because didn't really know if it was from the WEN. So I googled it, like I do everything! And sure enough... there are so many woman that this has happened to! Very disappointed!!!

    Used it several years ago when my daughter Cassie ** bought it, created an account, and never put 2 + 2 together on hair loss, but I lost hair. It is only now growing back and getting longer. I thought at the time it was very strange. I used her product for a few weeks or so, then she ran out and that was that. Yesterday I used some again for the first time since then and thought about ordering more until I read the reviews on it and now it all makes sense.

    My hair is my crowning glory. I "entertain" in my rock band. My hair goes right along with the entire scenario as does my guitar and vox. Ugh. Today I shampooed it out with a good product and noticed a lot more hair in my comb. NOT HAPPY!!! -- as I had just combed it out yesterday and should not have any issues, which I did not but "still hair loss more than should be"??? Too bad. Made my hair feel great. Boo WEN. Fix this, and I'd better not keep losing hair. It's MY LIFE ON STAGE!!! :(

    I have been using Wen for 2 years now. I buy it at the kiosk inside the mall so I have not had to deal with auto shipping or any other hassle through the direct website. Not sure how all these reviews say they don't cleanse. You must not be using it correctly if that is happening to you. I use it and my hair is oily before and clean afterwards. I even use it as a leave in conditioner. I live in Texas where it is hot and humid most of the year and have not had much of a problem with my hair being oily.

    I have very long wavy hair and after I use Wen, it really brings out the waves and does not make it frizzy. I have not had any hair loss and do not understand how a lot of people are saying that unless you are using the Wen comb. I started out using that and found the bristles to be too hard and not flexible so I lost some hair using that. I now use a wide tooth comb which works much better and have not had any hair loss from that. I have tried using over 12 different scents but my favorite is the Winter Vanilla Mint. It leaves a long lasting smell like chocolate and mints. I will forever be a Wen girl!

So I rinsed again and got the greasy feeling gone and went about my day. The next time I went to wash my hair I realized I had a baseball sized greasy spot on the crown of my head. It took almost 5 months of over washing, multiple washing a day with shampoos that dried my hair to get rid of that spot. Wen destroyed my hair. Then destroyed it a second time when I had to dry my hair out to get the greasy spot to go away. Now if I wash my hair in the AM it is gross by the evening.

    I used the product for a while. Loved how my hair looked and felt. Couple of things that I would recommend to the angry customers regarding the product (not counting the customer service). First, when you wash your hair, make sure you wet your hair very well. Add water till you feel the product is going through the hair smoothly. Second, people are complaining about hair loss. It could be because of very frequent washing. I don't know if it is true. Just think it can be one of the reasons. I never noticed a loss of hair, but opposite, noticed that I started losing less hair during my washings. I noticed a hair loss from using shampoo of other brands and think that the chemical ingredients affect the pores.

    I believe some products just have a reaction with your skin reaction. Just stop using the product if you notice such a problem. I believe some people may have this problem, but also know that very many (majority) don't experience a hair loss at all. And the last, to avoid conflicts with their customer service and to save you a good mood, order this product using online stores. I used Amazon. Good luck.

I was able to successfully cancel and receive a full refund, but I have to wait 3-5 business days for the chargeback to my account and a week for a label to send back this box. The products are OK - nothing special and I agree with other reviews that never washing your hair with shampoo is ridiculous - the build-up would eventually be disgusting.

    I imagine this product might be ok if you have VERY dry hair. But for people with regular to oily hair this product is highly irregular (to be fair I think it's highly irregular in all cases, honestly). Using this product is exactly as it says - you are NEVER using shampoo again! While I understand the studies that say shampoo can strip hair of natural oils, etc... it doesn't mean that all shampoo is harsh and damaging and I certainly don't think that never CLEANING your hair with shampoo again is a sane option.

    I have very nice and normal hair and before Wen, I did not wash my hair every day. I didn't even wash it every other day. So I was using shampoo infrequently anyway. Wen says that if you use this product, you can get away with "washing" your hair less frequently. (Notice I use the word washing in quotes because wen is not shampoo and therefore not a cleaning agent). For someone like me who has pretty nice and healthy hair to begin with, I needed to "wash" my hair MORE often with Wen because, again, you are not really cleaning your hair with this product. I have now started using the Wen I have left as CONDITIONER which is really exactly what it is! But I WASH my hair with shampoo first.

    People, let's be logical about this - if shampoo can strip your hair of some of the oils it needs, then choose a shampoo that is tested to be gentile, not harsh or stripping. If, according to Wen and it's makers, ALL shampoo does this at least to some degree, then choose the mildest you can find. Do not be crazy and STOP CLEANING YOUR HAIR. We NEED shampoo to cleanse our hair. Wen is simply a glorified conditioner. Using Wen solely as a conditioner after shampooing (like a normal, intelligent, and HYGENIC person would) has been nice for my hair, but not sure it is worth the expense. Also, not sure how I feel about continuing to use Wen solely as a conditioner after what I have left runs out simply on principle because it really is an outrage that they even suggest ceasing to wash your hair! Would you quit showering if someone told you to?

    I have been a Wen user for several months and find it to be all it claims. I do not have to use lots of other products other than a light application of hairspray. It took some time to get used to the sudless consistency but I like it now. My mom taught me to really scrub my scalp so have not had the itching others experience and I think one of the secrets is to rinse excessively well. It cleanses my hair even when I go longer than usual between shampoos and I use half of what is recommended. Adding water is more important than adding more product to get a cleansing emulsion. So far I find it a superior product for my color treated hair.

As a matter of fact, I told them to take me off their mailing list. My advice, don't waste our money and definitely don't get on their mailing list.

Brushing my naturally straight and medium thick hair was a disaster that took at least 10 to brush from tip to root. Would not recommend.

    We ordered the product in February. It didn't do crap. We cancelled in April and paid in full with a gift card that we purchased ourselves at the store. We paid the bill in full around the 15th of April. We received a confirmation. Now it is July and they want another $101.82. They said the card was declined. I know it was not because when we checked the card balance, this amount exactly was deducted. I suggest no one order this product. Not only does it not work, but you will be billed for it until you die. These people need to be investigated. Warning!!!!

    I find WEN an excellent hair product. However, I attempted to purchase WEN products from Guthy Renker, agent to Chaz Dean, supplier and manufacturer, and would strongly recommend consumers avoid these companies because: I found the WEN product much cheaper from other suppliers and buying options much less restrictive. I found the practices of Chaz Dean felt generally unfair and some of the product(s) not fit for the purpose I intended. For example, WEN products are only available in pre-selected 'KITS' which contain MINI PRODUCTS, that at first glance, appear to be the same size as the standard or larger products sold by other suppliers. The only other option is to pay an extremely high price for selected product.

    On the internet CHAZ RECOMMENDS a HAIR CARE DELUXE KIT $49.99 containing 350ml cleansing conditioner, 60ml replenishing mist and 60ml styling cream. At a glance, these MINI products appear to be the same size as the standard 470ml and 120ml products respectively, which are available from other suppliers. 2 of the 3 mini products are insufficient in volume to last the life of the cleansing conditioner, which is the principle product in the kit. This forces you to purchase selected product at a much higher price in order to keep pace with consumption of the cleansing conditioner, and to stockpile products in the kit you might not want. Kits cannot be modified in any way and no product can be switched out of a kit in favour of another product the customer prefers or needs more. The customer must purchase those preferred products separately at a much higher price.

    If the consumer purchases the kit, they are placed on a repeat order system which continues to supply a kit and deduct money from the customer's bank account periodically, with product that is not adequate. This can cause an oversupply of unwanted product, and an undersupply of valued product, with no power to change this at any reasonable cost.

    I found this most unsatisfactory and rang the company only to become embroiled in a very long winded, hard sell, and confusing discussion about pricing and product purchase options. I also felt manipulated. For example, I asked for a product price and was told by Chaz Dean they will just process that order for me now - I had not asked to place an order, I'd asked for a price. It all adds to the frustration of trying to extract prices and procedures whilst staying alert enough to avoid over charges or buying traps with a sales consultant whose English I found difficult to understand.

    I first used WEN over 6 years ago. I immediately fell in love with it. My hair felt silky, was manageable, and it didn't straighten the perm I had at the time. I continued using the product over the years, although I did cancel auto ship. I just didn't need that much of the product even though my hair is thick and just past my shoulders. I mostly *wash* my hair daily, sometimes skipping a day. I never found my hair to be greasy, didn't feel that there was buildup of any kind and I get compliments all the time on how shiny my hair is. My suggestion to people who say they are getting too much product in the mail? Stop auto-shipment. They are happy to have you order as YOU need to.

    I called to place an order for the Wen shampoo. When you watch the TV advertisement, it states that you will receive 40% off if you order in 12 minutes and you will get free shipping if you order in six minutes. It states it is a one time order on TV On the TV advertisement it never mentions it will be auto shipped in one month or 30 days. You find this out when you call to order When you call they tell you if you do not enroll in membership there is no discount. I believe this is fraud because they do not mention this on the commercial about auto shipment. I knew about the auto shipment because it happened to a friend of mine who placed an order (one time only) and continued to get the product even after she canceled.

    So when I ordered or rather attempted to order, I was told about the auto shipment by Stephanie. I spoke with the supervisor Laura's who informed me order I was told about the auto shipment by Stephanie I spoke with the supervisor Lauris who informed me I did not have to order if I didn't like it so I'm very happy that I didn't order it however, I believe that they would not have told me about the auto shipment but I knew about it from my friend and it was very difficult for her to cancel it after she placed the order. She continued to get shipments even though she didn't want anymore and was charged for them and was never refunded until after six months.

    It's a very good thing she had all the documentation of calling them or she would not had been issued a refund. So anyone ordering this product should be aware of the auto shipment because they do not speak about it on TV. They say it is a one time shipment only on TV.

    I was interested in using this product because flyers were sent with some well-known products and I believed they wouldn't back a poor rated company. I filled out the information for the "free trial" and before I finished the process I decided to read some more reviews. When I went back to the website the order had been processed and I had been charged $19.95. I immediately contacted them to cancel the order as it was in error by email. The response was to call the customer service number so I did. I explained the situation and was told not to worry it was cancelled and the money would be credited. A couple weeks went by and still no credit to my account. I called again and was told again not to worry it was taken care of.

    So now it was about 2 months after I receive a box in mail containing Wen products as to which I was very confused. I opened it to find 2 big bottles and a couple other small products and an invoice for well over $100. I once again called and asked why I received these products. They told me it was what I had ordered on the continuous shipment I enrolled for after I received the "free trial" but they did not have my credit card information any longer which is why I received the invoice. This made sense considering I had called previously and they told me my card information was no longer in the system. I advised them of the situation prior and that I had never even received any products. They apologized and advised me to return the products which by the way I had to pay for the shipping. I returned the products to the address given via UPS.

    Soon after I started receiving collection notices from them and they were reporting delinquencies to the credit bureaus almost immediately. I never received any calls or letters regarding this matter. After the reporting started I called them to again resolve the situation. They told me that all I had to do was return the products. I told them I had months prior. They told me they never received the products back and that I was still responsible for the collection. I was so frustrated I hung up. I then started receiving emails telling me I needed to resolve the matter or I would be reported to the credit bureaus. I laughed because they had already been doing so. I again sent another email because obviously the calls were getting me nowhere and never received a response. I am now fighting the issue with the credit bureaus.

    I saw an infomercial for WEN Hair Care. It advertised a low $29.95 price for a 3 piece WEN Hair Care Basic Kit. They provided by a telephone number and a website address. I ordered via the web and when I went to process my order, it added a $117 WEN Mousse product, as well as upgraded my order from a Regular Kit to a Deluxe Kit, unbeknownst to me, for $39.95. I found this out after placing my order by logging into my newly created account to check the order status to ensure everything was correct.

    I called their customer support line the next day and was told that they cannot cancel the order as it is in process of being shipped, and they would send me a return label for the WEN Mousse. Once returned, they would then credit my account. So, I thought I was paying $29.95 and it ended up being over $143.00. Further, she said the $29.95 product is only available over the phone, even though their website gives you the option to order the $29.95 product. Once you order it, it slips in the $39.95 product and the WEN Mousse. There is nothing in their contract that states they would do that. Once the transaction hits my credit card, I will be calling my bank to dispute the transaction and have the charges reversed.

    I urge anyone ordering off the infomercial BUYER BEWARE - you are going to get ripped off. This company needs to be investigated for fraud and there should be a class action lawsuit filed against them.

    First of all, it wasn't the best experience with the products but, here is the timeline of my adventure: 6/15/15 - Placed my order online. IT IS VERY CLEAR that you are going to be receiving it every month unless you change it. It's within the "checkout" process. 6/18/15 - my charge disappear from my card and I thought the order was cancelled due to verification. I emailed them. I received an email the NEXT day saying it was at warehouse ready to ship. 6/27/15 - I received my order - I followed the instructions and my hair was very, very soft and the scent stayed a while. I even email asking them if I could change the formula later, they replied the same day saying "yes". 6/28/15 - my scalp was itchy. It could be because 1 - I am pregnant and my skin is very sensitive. 2 - because the previous shampoo caused me dandruff or 3 - my hair was just reacting to the change of hair products. I also came across this site and started reading the reviews.

    So, I decided to email them and ask them to cancel my auto-ship. Within a few hours, I received a confirmation email stating my account was cancelled and to give them a call to provide more details about the issue. Of course I did not call. Around 7 pm EST I received a call from a lady from Wen, asking me for details of what happened. She assured me again my account was cancelled. As of today, my hair is still soft, no more itching and I could actually go another day without washing my hair. I normally wash it every other day because it gets itchy or greasy. While I do believe customer could suffer from a reaction, here are my questions/clarifications to some of the reviews:

    1. Anyone that states that they didn't know about the auto-ship - it is very clear when you are checking out. Lots of other companies do the same thing not just this one. 2. Several reviews stated that they had been using it for years and they noticed it but they thought it was stress. Common sense, you will start with process of elimination if my hair is falling... (ie hair products, medications, etc)I find it surprisingly that all of them went to dermatologists. 3. Saying that they cannot get a hold of someone. While I never called, normally email communication takes longer and my emails show that they do communicate and they do not leave you hanging. I actually just tried to go into the account and it states that my account was deactivated. 4. Some stated they used it on their babies. I had the original formula sent to me and the minty scent cause the tingling feeling on my scalp.. why would you think this can be used on a baby?

    Of course, these are just my opinions and questions. If you are trying to find information on this product, it is up to your criteria to purchase it. I would recommend you search other sites for reviews and or word of mouth. I ordered because my coworker's mom uses it and she states that it's been years and with no problems. My reference number for the cancellation is **.

I thought maybe it was due to stress or medicine and just shrugged it off. I went to my hairdresser yesterday and had my hair done, we started talking about how my hair was noticeably thinner on top than the last time I was there. I told her I had been using Wen products and she informed me that a lot of people were saying they were losing hair since using said products. I had to have her cut my hair in a shorter style so as to try and "cover" the bald spot near the crown of my head and to make my hair not seem so thin and lifeless.

    Needless to say she recommended that I stop using Wen and recommended a shampoo better suited for my hair, but as I have seen some ladies on here comment, almost any shampoo is better than Wen.

I called again to let them know I did not order nor want auto delivery, and I asked they cancel and whatever else needs to be done, to stop auto delivery, and continuous billing on my credit card.

    The shipments stopped, but although I had paid for the original shipment that I did order, continued to get a past due bill. It was 6 months before $65 was returned to my bank account. Two years later I still get a past due bill for $29.99. The product was good, but not worth the hassle with my bank account, and getting past due bills for something I do not owe. What a nightmare. If you want to buy Wen, I suggest buying from QVC - a reputable company, NOT the commercial or ad!!!

Today in the mail I received my refund!! It only took 9 weeks!!!

    I had to return my 1st shipment to Wen because it contains chamomile which I am allergic to. I asked if they had any that didn't contain chamomile and customer service rep said they did not so they would refund my money. They sent me a return label on April 16th. On April 24th I sent back their products in their return box with their return label. The attached directions label said the money would be returned within 6 weeks. It is now June 23rd and I still have not received my money back guarantee refund. This is much more than six weeks!!! It's been about 8 weeks. Thanks.

    This is why it's so important to read reviews before buying products. I tend to lose some hair because I have thick curly hair and don't brush often but only before I get in shower, so when I started using this product did not pay much attention but did notice more hair was coming out than normal. I just took a road trip and when I got out of the car there was so much hair all over my seat. Oh my gosh I am so glad I did not go years or even months using this product. I would be sick if I got to the point I had bald spots. It's bad enough to see so much hair coming out and like others thought it was stress. This is crazy they can still sell this with all these complaints.

    I started using WEN on December 7, 2013 which I ordered from QVC & the company. My hair was in very good condition but I wanted to use a product that would detangle my hair. I was watching QVC which they advertised the WEN product to be one of the best hair product for detangling and conditioning the hair. My hair became softer and was easier to comb with less tangles. After two years of using the product I notice that my hair was not as thick as it was and that there appeared thinning around the circumference of my head. I didn't think it was the product until my daughter whom I bought the conditioning cleanser for called me after a month of using the product complained of the same reaction that I was having thinning and hair shedding, which left her at the age of 37 devastated after growing her hair to 16 inches long.

I told the clerk he works for a crook! I don't even like the product as my hair does not feel clean afterwards and no improvement in the condition of my hair. This snide clerk wanted to get into a discussion about my hair and I had to tell him I wasn't interested in discussing it. I just want to get rid of this shipment and not get any other.

    Some time in May 2015 I ordered the WEN product line after watching an infomercial. My sister had tried this product and liked it, so I thought I would give it a try. I called in, thinking I would get a 30-day supply for $39.95, but instead got this huge package that the company would charge me 2 times that much. I wish I would have read the reviews of dealing with this company and their policies before I went thru headache after headache that I and others have gone thru to clear their accounts with this deceptive company.

    My first phone call was to first say I didn't want to try the product after discovering that the cleanser is more like a conditioner than a shampoo. 2nd phone call was to return the product. The company told me that they would not charge me for the other 2 installments. They in fact did! The 3rd call was to see if my product had been returned... No history of it and still I am charged for never trying the product. I had to embolden myself to get a full refund for $119 worth of product I never tried. I am angry. Do NOT TRUST this company. I don't care how good or bad the product is. It is not worth your time to order it off of their informercials. If you want to try it, look for it in a store.

    I am seventy and after a debilitating stroke that altered not only taste and smell, vision and use of limbs, but seemed to deaden my hair and turn it to straw, I decided to try Wen after seeing all the claims on the TV commercials. After that first wash I was hooked. I haven't experience hair loss, in fact my hair is fuller than my twenties, and even with home coloring I am saved with Wen. I have found ways to use the product these past four years that work best for me. For one thing I wash my hair every three days and for a while, because I was using hairspray. I would shampoo every third time. I no longer do that as if I need control. I use the Wen spray and gel instead.

    I also leave in the conditioner after a first rinse, or add it to rinsed hair, and it gives my hair the body and natural fullness that keeps it easy to manage and maintain. I never use a dryer, occasionally a heated brush, but just towel dry, comb into shape and rough up a bit and my hair feels and looks fresh and natural. The only negatives have to do with the exorbitant cost that certainly was not what I originally agreed to, as $90+ every three months for a few products is outrageous. I have stopped ordering and am looking for alternate ways of purchasing Wen other than Guthy Renker. But this is a fabulous product and really helped not only my hair but my self confidence coping with my handicap.

    I have been using WEN for about 2 years. I didn't use it exclusively until a few months ago; I used shampoo for the first cleanse and WEN for the 2nd conditioning because I couldn't get used to my hair feeling clean without shampooing. As time went by, I noticed that I wasn't washing my hair nearly as often as I used to, plus I was instinctively using less and less shampoo. I finally just went for it and skipped the shampoo altogether and my hair felt clean even without it. I loved how my hair felt from the start and it's just gotten better the longer I use it.

    It's gotten thicker so I've been able to let it grow long; in fact I haven't cut it at all since I started using WEN and I don't have any split ends. My hair started getting thinner when I hit my 20's and I had to cut it short in my mid-30's, even wore extensions for a while to thicken it up. Instead of being coarse and frizzy, I can wear it straight (if I flatiron) or curly (if I let it air dry I actually get spiral curls, which I haven't had since I was 6 years old!). I couldn't believe so many people had a negative experience with it because it's been a lifesaver for me, and I'd recommend WEN to anyone who asked me for an opinion. I have had strangers ask what I use on my hair and let me tell you, when you are in your late 50's and some guy in his 30's stops you to compliment you on your hair, it feels pretty damn good!

Wen NOT ONCE during their conversation with her that all 3 months would be taken out of her bank acct plus tax and shipping all at once to the tune of 125.99. They had not shipped the product yet. An unheard of thing with anyone else, Amazon, LL Bean etc. When she called Wen about this, and told them to put the money back into her acct, they got mad at her, told her they would cancel her order and she wouldn't receive anything! (in a very hateful tone/attitude). Nowhere in any of her conversations with them while ordering or with the man she spoke to today, and nowhere on the Wen website was it made known that you have to pay 3 months all at once. She has notified BB&T and their attorneys are watching her account to make sure Wen reimburses her account with the 125.99.

    I used WEN Cleansing Conditioner Sweet Almond Mint on my daughter just a few times. She started losing hair within a couple days, and also had a complete change in the texture of her hair making it tangle and become matted. I never considered that a high end "shampoo" that is supposed to be more gentle could possibly be the culprit. I used WEN more as a detangler on the length of her hair, and she continued losing hair. I used the product twice more on her whole head because it made it extra slippery and easy to comb through. I thought that would reduce pulling on her hair and reduce hair loss, but her hair fell out in handfuls when the product was in her hair until there was almost no hair left at all, and remaining hair ceased to grow and would also have to fall out to make way for new hair. She even lost her eyebrows and lashes. 8 months later she is still missing a significant amount of hair.

    I have used WEN for about a year and a half now. Before using WEN I had a thick, full head of hair all my life. It was also very dry and coarse. So I ordered WEN to try. My first reaction was positive. It was different being no suds and apply to hair, finish my shower and then rinse out. At first I didn't notice much difference. After a couple of months my hair stylist said it feels different. After a year, I have notice my hair is softer but also thinned out.

    Now after a year and a half I have notice my hair is really thinned out on top but I attributed it to my age. I knew about the reviews and my daughter pointed them out to me. She is a cosmetologist. Said professional hair products are the best for me. I wanted to continue trying it but after hearing about the lawsuit of one woman and seeing the pictures of bald spots, I decided to quit my use of this product. My hair has definitely changed, but not for the good - thinned and frail. Also the auto shipment system is pits. They should just have the member price available for everyone and they order when they want it. Don't bother with this product.

    Just over two months ago I bought into the TV infomercial hype and purchased some Wen Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner and leave in conditioner hair products. After using the product for two weeks my scalp itched like crazy, driving me wild. I didn't like the smell of the product. I used half of the amount suggested on the directions. My hair is long, past my shoulders. I continued to use it and saw a lot of hair going down the drain and in my hair brush. I decided to check online reviews and saw many others were having the same results but it seemed to only be with the Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner so I purchased some of the Fig hoping to end the problems that I was having.

    The smell of the Fig Cleansing conditioner is absolutely horrible! I could not stand the way it made my hair smell and my scalp continued to itch. After learning about the class action suit, and fearing I might go bald, two weeks ago I decided to stop using all Wen products and go back to the shampoo I was using. To this day my scalp still itches and hair is still coming out in my brush and drain. I am hoping that this will soon stop since I no longer use Wen products. I am not happy with Wen products. Some say they have had amazing results. I have NOT.

    I was searching online for a better deal than the retail price I bought off of the TV where they kept on sending me these large boxes every single month of their regular cleansing conditioner and their special cleansing conditioner (which oddly I cannot find anymore online) that came in the smaller bottle for extra special deep cleansing that I mix with the regular cleansing conditioner. I felt like they wanted me to sell it or something, ha! Guess I should have read the fine print.

    I am a 37 year old man and I have been using their products (and the replenishing mist) for going on 2 years about 4-5 times a week. When looking online just now I was totally floored by all the commentary on people (I presume 90% women) that had hair loss. Typically a male would be more susceptible to such a reaction since men tend to go bald far more frequently than women. I feel like the only person that has been totally satisfied with my results. Even my girlfriend and the women that work at my office comment on how awesome my hair looks.

    Here is my question: Why am I not losing my hair and I am a man? I naturally have a tiny bit of a receding hairline, but heck I have had that since my 20s. HAVE ANY MEN USED THE PRODUCTS AND LOST HAIR SUDDENLY LIKE ALL THE WOMEN?? Now you all have me totally worried and I am scared if I stop then I will lose hair like some of you all said happened. Gosh, I so wish I had not tried to save a few bucks tonight! How am I going to explain this to ** (my girlfriend)?! What should I do? Perhaps some bottles got contaminated and I just got lucky since I had such a large surplus of over a year supply, you think??

    I am SO confused by these comments left here. I've been using WEN for nearly 3 years, long curly hair, and it's been fantastic. Before with shampoo and conditioner I lost a lot of hair that I had to gather in a clump to throw away, (I regularly "shed" for my whole life lol) now I may have only a few strands. Before I had to use gel, mousse, and anti-frizz serum, and my hair would be crispy or frizzy or dry, now I only use the cleansing conditioner and the anti-frizz cream, and my hair has never been softer, shinier, and the curls are splendid and bouncy.

    I don't blow dry or curl and straighten occasionally. I wash my hair 1-2 times a week, at night, comb the styling cream through it and go to bed with it piled on my head and in the morning it's perfect. I used to need a trim every 3-4 months due to dry frizzy ends and oily top, but since I started using WEN I've gone 9-10 months before needing a trim, and that's only because my layer gets too long! I've never had breakage, dryness, or hair falling out in clumps. No balding.

    My sister has been using it for the same amount of time, and her hair is the complete opposite of mine; baby-fine, straight, and blonde. She has had no problems with hair loss or balding and to me her hair looks bouncy and shiny. I don't understand the problems you all are having, but I'm sorry for your issues, I wish you could experience it like we have.

    On another note, I went on the website to see what scents they have, and by the "place order" button there it is, "auto-delivery included" (or auto membership, whatever) clear as day, also the full breakdown of an initial payment, then 4 weeks later another, then every 12 weeks an auto payment and new shipment of product. It's right there. The price is a little high, but a bottle lasts me at least 2 months, maybe more. It's worth it. I love this product, and would be extremely sad if I had to go back to regular shampoo and conditioner, plus all the other styling products to keep my hair looking this great.

    OMG! Just discovered the reviews about Wen and having a major aha! moment. I started using the "cleansing conditioner" (fancy marketing ploy for shampoo) about a year ago. Soon after I started losing my hair in shocking quantities to the point where I dreaded shampooing, avoiding the dreadful clumps of hair in the drain. My eyelashes also became sparse. My hair looked awful and I felt ugly and old. I attributed all this to age (I'm 62) and stress. I (thankfully in retrospect) ran out of product and started using a biotin shampoo and biotin supplements, also bought Latisse for my lashes. After suffering for over a year my hair is finally thicker and eyelashes are way better (buy Latisse people!). Caution - do NOT use this (very expensive) product.
