1. Have you seen the flimsy bottles that Jonathan shampoo and conditioner come in? One false move in the shower and the bottle will be history, cracked in two cheap little pieces. It even feels dangerously as though you might break the bottle when you squeeze it - and you'll need to squeeze it quite hard if you want to get any product out.

2. Jonathan's logo is so boring that it actually makes you feel sad for him, as his design team clearly rushed the final packaging to get the product out sooner and capitalize on the success of Jonathan's show, "Blow Out." Whichever ten cent design genius managed to put "Jonathan" in black capital letters, superimpose it on a neutral background, and call it a finished logo needs to be fired right away. For a line that prides itself on offering unique hair care products, the packaging could not be any less original.

3. Jonathan's Add Moisture Shampoo doesn't lather due to his non-detergent formula. I would have no problem with this if the shampoo worked well, but unfortunately, the lack of foam seems to make it more difficult to use. You really need to massage this through your hair twice to get adequate results, and even then it's difficult to know if your hair is clean. This shampoo doesn't make your hair feel clean to the touch.

4. The texture of Jonathan's Add Moisture Shampoo leaves something to be desired, as it is heavy and somewhat sticky like honey. It's necessary to combine the shampoo with water in your hands before you can wash your hair with it. I find this annoying.

5. Jonathan's Add Moisture Conditioner manages to be too thick to be squeezed easily from the tube, yet too runny to really soak into the length of your hair. Long haired girls, be warned: this conditioner will end up all over your back and shoulders.

6. Jonathan's Add Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner don't actually add moisture to the hair. This allegedly moisturizing combination of products actually left my hair drier, rougher, duller, and generally less healthy looking. These products should be renamed "Detract Moisture."

Takeaways
  • Jonathan Antin of Bravo's "Blow Out" is the creator of Jonathan Product.
  • Jonathan Product's Add Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner are drying to the hair.
  • Jonathan Product is hard to use.

I can see you have absolutely no clue about graphic design. I can't speak for the products design is brilliant.

I've bought a lot of his products and I really love the add moisture shampoo and conditioner. It didn't strip my hair and the conditioner detangled it well. If his products worked as badly as you say they did, why on earth would you use it for one month. I don't believe this review and who cares about how the bottle looks, that's no reason not to buy his products.

I love Jonathan's shampoo. The reason the shampoo does not lather is because it does not contain sulfur ingrediants, which are very bad for your hair. Remember just because a shampoo does not lather does not mean it is not working. This shampoo is well worth the money. I love my hair after using it.
