What He Says:
The American Crew
Classic 3-in-1 Shampoo is such an easy product to use, and being a 3-1 (not
that hubby ever uses conditioner in his very short hair), he has clearly
noticed that it has shaved off some valuable time in the morning washing ritual
using a 3-in-1 product.
The actual shampoo comes in a retro-looking and understated simple
brown bottle, with an easy to use flip lid. It has a natural masculine scent,
which is however still quite subtle, so that it does not clash with his aftershave.
At first thought hubby thought that it was a little weird,
that it was a combined shampoo, conditioner and body wash, but after uses, the apprehension
dwindled. The perfect product for the time poor man when he’s in a rush, although
it does take away the excuse of a long shower!
By combining shampoo, conditioner and body wash with a
simple but tasteful mix of Dimethicone, Citric Acid, Sodium Chloride, Sage Leaf
Extract, American Crew has found a balance in formula that can move seamlessly
from the hair to the body and perform the duties a specifically targeted
product should do on its own.
Hubby wash his short hair every day already after
the first wash you could see and tell the difference to the feel and look of
his hair.
He also immediately commented on how nice it is to
use the shampoo. In just one wash, the shampoo easily cleans the hair,
and removes build-up from hair styling products, and leaves it silky soft, shiny
and healthy looking. It lathers up easily into a soft foam, and in spite of it
also being a conditioner as well, it does not weigh down his fine hair, but
rather leaves it easy to style. And it is so gentle that it has not irritated his
otherwise sensitive scalp.
Used as a body shampoo, it gently cleans the skin, without removing
any of the body’s moisture like other store bought and cheaper soaps and body
washes often do.
At $32.95 it is not cheap, however, it does come in a large 450ml
bottle, and it is very concentrated, so a little goes a very long way, even
when used as a body shampoo.
All in all this is a great product, and hubby is enjoying
not only the results of soft and healthy skin and hair, but also using a specific
man-product, as opposed to other even unisex shampoo which in most cases have a
strong feminine fragrance.

Has your hubby ever tried any of the products from American
Crew? Is he even into hair and skincare products? Or maybe he uses yours in the
quiet?
I'm a bit confused why "it obviously wasn't suitable for me". Are there biological/chemical differences in men's and women's hair? I know that companies market to separate genders, but that is only a marketing strategy as far as I know. I was hoping to get a woman's perspective on this product. Oh well, I will just have to try it.
ReplyDeleteOf course a female can use it too - but it is just not for my long coloured hair, that needs products specifically for that. Also I find it is has a very masculine scent, but if you like that, and are just after a good everyday shampoo, then yes, of course it would be suitable for you too!
