My High School Days Are Here Again: Herbal Essences Smooth Collection Shampoo and Conditioner

When I was in high school, I fell in love. Not with a boy (though that happened too) ... no, this love was one for the history books. I pined, I lusted, I was completely head over heels ... for shampoo and conditioner. Yes, you read that right. I was completely, totally in love with Herbal Essences Smooth Collection Shampoo and Conditioner. I fell hard, and I was absolutely devastated when Herbal Essences discontinued my first love a few short years after our relationship began.

Well, here's the best part. Recently, Herbal Essences decided to bring back the Smooth Collection! You may have heard my screams of ecstasy when I first heard the news.

For starters, the fruity, delicious scent is back and better than ever. The scent was one of the things I loved most about this shampoo and conditioner back in the day -- it's just so unique. There's never been another shampoo that smelled like this to me, and it really does brighten up my day! Every time I open up the bottles, I'm brought right back to my carefree high school days. And, since I'm now in my 30s, any chance I have of feeling young is one I enthusiastically take.

But here's the REAL reason I love this shampoo and conditioner. They. Make. My. Hair. Look. And. Feel. INCREDIBLE. It's soft, it's smooth, it's lush ... and it looks and feels clean for up to six days after washing! Plus, the pink bottles just make my shower look so girly and fun. And, really, who wouldn't love that?
