The quick -
Pros:
Smells great
Lathers nicely
Leaves my hair soft, smooth and with a little volume
Doesn’t dry out my scalp or facial skin
Doesn’t have harsh chemicals
Has naturals & organic ingredients
Reduced my bed head
Made pomade easier to style with
My girlfriend likes it

Cons:
Is a bit pricey if not on sale
Small bottom size (biggest size only 8oz)
One bottle may only last me 4-6 weeks.

A little background - Male, late thirties and I have medium to short length hair and typically use a 2n1 shampoo/conditioner combo common brand value size (read cheap but still name brand) shampoo for daily hair washing. I shower before bed. I’m on well water and have a water softener. Normally, my hair feels very soft while I’m lathering the shampoo into my hair but after drying with a towel becomes stiff and dry. Often, I wake up with bed head. I’d say my skin/scalp is somewhere between dry to normal.

My normal shampoo seemed to be damaging my hair with all the harsh chemicals so I looked for something that didn’t have sulfates or parabens. Something more natural. I came across this Brickell Shampoo and even though I thought the price was a bit high and the bottle size too small, decided to give it a go. I have been using the Brickell shampoo for about a week. So far I’m loving it as at least for my hair and scalp/skin, it’s solved a lot of my hair problems. It has a nice mint/tea tree scent that isn’t too powerful, lathers nicely, has refreshing tingling from the mint or tea tree (although I wish it tingled more) and even after a full day on the boat in the harsh sun and saltwater, restores my hair to a nice softness with a little volume. My old shampoo never did that. My bed head seems to be a lot better too as an added bonus.

One thing that was weird was when I first rinsed it out of my hair, my hair felt stiff and not smooth at all. I thought the Brickell shampoo was mostly a failure at that point and I had wasted my money but I was very wrong. After my hair was dry from a towel and the air, it had a little volume and smooth as silk. Each wash afterwards has been just as great maybe even better as the health of my hair seems to have improved. The Brickell shampoo has been amazing. It seems to make it easier to style my hair with pomade as well and reduced the dry skin on my face which I didn’t expect at all.

Bottom line - Yes, I would buy again and while I can’t speak for different hair and scalp/skin types, for me this shampoo has worked wonders and I will be buying it again when this bottle runs out. My two biggest qualms are the price and bottle size being small. I guess I’d also like a bit more potency to tea tree or mint that makes it refreshingly tingle on your scalp. Other than those things, I’m thoroughly impressed.
