I dont think Im old enough to even say old school although i have been hearing some of my favorites songs on the radio when they do their old school Fridays.

I would have to say thermasilk. didnt do much for my hair but i love the smell

 
Guess what??????? Last night, I was at Rite-Aid and I saw Salon Selectives in the shampoo aisle! The packaging looked a little different (still a bright pink bottle) but the smell is different. I remembered that it used to smell like apples. Now it smells like melon. It's not bad. I just prefer the original scent.

 
My dad always used Head and Shoulders and I remember using my parental units shower and the smell of Head and Shoulders...I also remember it foaming up alot on my head. So fun!

What about GEE YOUR HAIR SMELLS TERRIFIC!

I remember Tame and Body on Tap. I loved Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific.

Oh, and what about Breck?

 
Yep....I loved salon selectives too! I also used to use this conditioner that was like horse something. Great mane's or something like that. I have no idea if it is still around, but it smelled good!

 
when i was a kid i wanted geeyourhairsmellsterrific shampoo because of the overly repeated commercial for it GEE! Your Hair! Smells Terrific!....my mother would never buy it because it was 'expensive'

as a teen i remember we always had revlon Flex volumizing shampoo and condish because everyone in our family has thin whimpy hair...i recently saw some bottles for sale on ebay and it made me remember it, i read reviews on folica.com and everyone was complaining about the 'mediciny smell' but i distinctly remember the smell and i loved it!

and faberge organics...they'll tell two friends and they'll tell two friends and so on and so on....my mom hated the commercial so therefore she would not buy this shampoo, but my auntie had it at her house and i loved it (proably moreso because mama didnt know, neener neener)

 
Nobody will remember this, but there was a shampoo called "GeeYourHairSmellsTerrific". There was a conditioner too. It had the BEST smell.

 
This one was way back in the mid 1970's, "Body on tap", was a beer made shampoo and conditioner that made my hair feel soft and smelled sweet, miss this one, and another one was called "silkience shampoo and conditioner" this one was another hair softener shampoo and conditioner, Miss these two, and of course Thermasilk!!!

category, does anyone remember...

Long and Silky Conditioner - I loved that stuff

Breck Shampoo

Lemon -Up

Tame Creme Rinse - should've been called grease rinse since it left so much slime behind

Dippity-Doo Hair Gel - my mother used it when she tortured me with hard rollers as a child

Yucca Dew

Short and Sassy

Gee, Your Hair Smells Terrific

Farrah Fawcett Shampoo

...and there was something with Wheat Germ and Honey (that I loved) but the name escapes me.

 
When I was a kid my mom always bought me those L'Oreal kids shampoos. They still make them, but not in the same scents as when I used them.

 
OMG thats the name of the shampoo I loved so much back then. Salon Selectives for curly hair. I loved that shampoo and conditioner because it smelled awesome. Thank you so much for namin that. I was lookin for that online a while back and in the stores but I couldnt remember what it was called.

 
Well, they still make this shampoo but since I am a beautician now I stick to only professional hair products. But to me this shampoo does not exist anymore. I used to really like most of the Dove shampoos. If I was ever in a situation where I had to use a drug store brand, that would be the one. Also, some of my clients can not afford the professional products so I usually refer them to the Dove line because I feel like it is the best out of the drug store brands

Oh, and by the way, I have been seeing A LOT of commercials for Salon Selectives. Its so weird because this topic was posted awhile ago and everyone was raving over how they used to love Salon Selectives. But then I started seeing commercials of it a few days after everyone was raving about them lol. Now they are everywhere and frankly, I hadn't even heard of them until you guys said something.

 
Well, I'm from the 50's and I think that LusterCreme was a brand that women used back then. I don't know who made it. Also, there was Prell shampoo.

That was a long time ago. I remember one girl in my class with beautiful long black hair was said to have used Tide detergent to wash her hair. In later years she got Lupus, but who knows...

 
They still make Finesse, and they do still make Thermasilk, it's just been pulled from the shelves in the US to make room for the Sunsilk line (I posted this in that other Thermasilk thread), you can buy it on Amazon.
