Totally Texty Review & (Giveaway Closed)
Tuesday, July 07, 2009
With both my daughters, it seemed like once they reached a certain age no matter how often they washed their hair, it just didn't look clean. There have been many times that I have had them go and rewash their hair since it didn't look clean. Eventhough they said that they did in fact wash it the first time.My 14 year old daughter recently had the opportunity to review a great new shampoo geared specifically for tweens and teens. This product is called Totally Texty. I love the "texty" part, because it really helps to connect to this age group. Totally Texty is shampoo and conditioner. Her first thought when she placed it on her hair was that it felt "gross". This product is super concentrated so a little goes along way. Let's just say that she used a little much at one time. It rinsed out really easy (she has very thich hair) and once it dried her hair had more body than it had ever had! She absolutely loves this product and keeps it with her even if she is going to just be away from home over night. She doesn't want to use any other shampoo and conditioner these days.
Made specially for the scalp needs of teens and tweens, Totally Texty is Sodium Laurel Sulfate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Parabens, DEA, and TEA free. It will help the hair stay fresh longer, without adding harsh chemicals to the hair. We have achieved this by adding a new deodorizer to the formulation.
Totally Texty is available for not only boys but also girls.
The YTMN shampoo for boys is an everyday shampoo for normal hair. Totally Texty™ uses a quality surfactant (soap) and a natural deodorizer that helps keep your hair smelling clean and fresh longer between shampooing. YTMN's youthful masculine scented shampoo will leave your hair soft and manageable. Our shampoo comes in 12 oz (300 ml) fully recyclable bottle.
The DDG Shampoo and Conditioner for girls:
DDG shampoo is an everyday use formulation for normal hair. Totally Texty shampoo uses a quality surfactant (soap) and a natural deodorizer that helps keep your hair smelling clean and fresh longer between shampooing. DDG's fresh and clean feminine scented shampoo will leave your hair soft, silky and manageable. Our shampoo comes in a 12 oz (300 ml) fully recyclable bottle.
DDG conditioner is an everyday use conditioner for normal hair. Totally Texty conditioner also uses a natural deodorizer in its formulation that helps keep your hair smelling clean and fresh longer between usage. DDG conditioner closes the hair shaft resulting in a softer, smoother condition and comes in a 10 oz (250 ml) fully recyclable bottle.
WIN,WIN,WIN

I think it's a cute concept of using text messaging to target teens. I also love that they don't leave out young men! “We are trying to incorporate text messaging fun with the best of hair care.” Totally Texty™ products comes in a distinctively packaged bottle with a fun text message title ddg(drop dead gorgeous) and ytmn(you’re the man now).

There's a fun poll on the site that doubles as market research for their next formulation.
I also learned (but don't think it's relevant) that I'm horrible at the game "Breakout"!!
