Happy #BEAUTYMONDAY! 馃檪 I hope you had a spectacular weekend and aren’t hating on Monday TOO much (but it’s totally cool to hate a little bit). I know I usually use Monday’s to talk about my fav beauty products or a tutorial, but today I’m bringing you something different (but still beauty related I swear). I’m talking about Function of Beauty, a hair care system that is totally customized for YOU. I was a tiny bit skeptical that someone could formulate a hair care product based entirely on an online quiz, but I wasn’t disappointed. Let’s jump into this Function of Beauty shampoo & conditioner review.
Function of Beauty Shampoo & Conditioner Review
About the company.
“You should have ownership and choice with the products you use. We put your name on your bottles because they鈥檙e developed and formulated for you. We celebrate you as the unique individual that you are; who you are and what you want – beyond your hair type, goals and preferences.”
My first impressions.
So, before I got my set, I have to be honest. I wanted it 90% because it says my name and it looked pretty. I KNOW I’M SUPERFICIAL. I GET IT OKAY. But it’s true. I loved the way they looked, with their pretty bottles and bright colors and personalized title.
First things first, in order to get your set, you have to take an online quiz on the Function of Beauty website. They ask questions like: hair type, hair structure, and scalp moisture. I chose straight, fine and oily because maybe one day I’ll find a shampoo that lets me go more than one day in between washing my hair (a girl can dream). Then, it wants you to select 5 hair goals. I can’t remember the exact ones I picked but I am positive oil control and volume were at least two.
MY FAVORITE PART OF WAS CHOOSING THE COLOR BECAUSE Y’ALL KNOW THAT I WANTED PINK. Part of me almost wanted to choose the dye-free one and be all eat pray love and organic but I couldn’t because I loved the idea of pretty pink shampoo too much, so if someday I die from something related to dyes in hair products, I think I’ll be okay with it.
You also get to choose which scent you want, and I went on the safe side with their essential oil mix. It has notes of eucalyptus, tea tree, lavender, rosemary, peppermint and spearmint. I was not disappointed, because it smells DANG amazing. I also chose the “strong” fragrance strength because I like to be able to smell my hair all day like I just left a salon.
So, now that I have this personalized bottle of shampoo, was it any good?
Actually, this shampoo was awesome. The peppermint, tea tree and spearmint made my head tingle in a good way. Like the shampoo was actually doing something to my hair which I loved. I am on day two of not washing my hair but it still looks really good (and I haven’t even used dry shampoo yet). Usually I can barely make it every other day because of the oils on my scalp. I love the smell and can smell it for quite a long time before it fades which I personally like. If you are someone who DOESN’T want to smell the shampoo, you can opt to get the light fragrance option.
All-in-all, I vote this shampoo to get a 10/10 in appearance and a 8/10 in how it works. I knocked two points off because at $36, you only get two 8oz bottles, so I think the price is a little steep for everyday people. But since it works, I would definitely recommend taking the plunge!
Well, friends. There you have it. My Function of Beauty Shampoo & Conditioner Review. I think this company has an awesome message: that every one of us is unique and we deserve products that reflect that. Nobody can fit into a one size fits all hair care line. I appreciate that way of thinking!

I had never heard of Function of Beauty before this review – definitely going to check out their website now! I can’t blame you for wanting to go for the pretty pink lol – it definitely made for some beautiful photos! 馃檪 Thanks for sharing this. Love your site!
Thanks Traci!!! You are too sweet!
OOOOOH an essential oil mix??? Sounds fabulous! I’ve been so new to oils but so into them…I want to learn everything about them!!

This is a really neat product. I’ve never heard of it, and I agree, $36 is a bit much for 8 ounces. The concept is really cool, though.
It definitely is an awesome concept!
I probably would have picked pink too!
Oh I need to try this. Always looking for new hair products.
And it works amazing!
Love it! I heard about this company last year and have been wanting to give it a try. So exciting that pink’s an option now!
Is it cruelty-free? I’m always on the lookout for new products to try. By the way, I LOVE the theme of your blog.
I’m not sure about cruelty-free Jenniffer, so I’ll have to look into it! GREAT question. Also thanks so much!!!
I had never heard of this brand, but it sounds pretty good. So I looked it up and it looks like it is cruelty-free which is a big deal. I might splurge and get some soon, because cruelty-free brands are worth it!
They ABSOLUTELY are!
I love the pretty and pink bottles! I’ll definitely have to check to see if this shampoo works with my hair type!

Never really heard about the brand but looking at those cute pink, customized bottles, I went straight to their website! I loved your review and since I have the same hair concerns as you, I might just order mine too! Thanks for sharing 馃檪
DO IT! You will NOT be sorry!
I never heard of these before – wonder if you can get them in the UK? I like it that pink xx
The peppermint sounds soooo good! Thanks for sharing!

I got this for my mother in law and have been dying to try it for myself!!
I love that they are pink! I am definitely going to give these a try.
I have never used any of their products before. I have heard so many great things about them though!!! Don’t feel bad about wanting a bottle with your name on it. I would feel the same way! I am super picky with what I use on my hair but I may have to give them a try out soon!
This looks like an amazing product – I didn’t even know custom shampoo was a thing – unless you DIY it. So cool!!!
Awesome post. ???? Really helpful for me, thanks!
I like this pink shampoo. I often use curling irons and feel that my hair is getting drier. I think I can try this hair care product.
Thank you so much for sharing information .
I am trying new shampoo and conditioner recently, maybe I will try it
