Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

It works just as well and smells identical to my nose. It has a good texture and smell and the bottle is a good size. While this does have an odor that reminds me of my grandfather, it does what it says.

The shampoo works well and doesn't have a ton of junk ingredients like some shampoos. The consistency is kind of strange because it is a tar shampoo, but it really does work. It is a high quality shampoo that is just as good as the more expensive bran...  Read More

It is a little heavy in my hair, but keeps dandruff and flakiness to a minimum. I have a recurring scalp condition which seems to get worse in the winter.

Cons

This also severely dries your hair. This is the only one that was so thick that i have a hard time squeezing it out of bottle. It looks, smells and feels like it, but nope, doesn't work like it.

Yeah you'll smell like a creasol impregnated railroad tie for a few hours, it's pine tar soap.

Price

I was almost ready to spend the 200 scalpers wanted for the real tgel.


Seems like a okay value for the size.

Competitiveness


A great alternative to the discontinued product by the competitor.


Well done, amazon basics; this works just as well as the compared/competing product.


This amazon basics formula is comparable to the famous brand name i normally purchase; it even has the same percentage of activ...  Read More


As far as i can tell, this stuff is indistinguishable from the name brand version.
