Hair will look fuller and thicker after only two shampoos, and with continued daily use, hair and scalp will remain in optimum condition. Directions for use:Wet hair thoroughly. Rub a quarter-sized amount between hands and apply gently to hair, making sure lather completely covers scalp. Don't massage. Leave on scalp for 30 seconds (to dissolve buildup), and rinse thoroughly. Lather only once for optimum performance. Recommened for Normal-to-Dry hair and scalp, and for chemically treated hair.
