Organix Acai Berry Avocado Shampoo and Conditioner Review

I know it's been like a million years since I have blogged.  I apologize.  I've been busy and honestly just kind of forgot about it.  The holidays were pretty good actually.  I had a great time at home with my family for Christmas.  I can't believe how much my nephews are growing up.  I had a very quiet and rather awesome New Years and now here we are... starting another semester of grad school.... How were your holidays?

Probably a month or so ago my friend Blake and I were at Walgreens and noticed that the Organix hair products were on sale.  They were buy one get one free.  Each retailed for $6.99 so you got them for $3.50 each, I figured why the hell not!!! After all, they are all sulfate and paraben free!  I'm really trying to take better care of my hair and pamper it a lot more so I thought I'd give this stuff a whirl.  I decided to go with the Acai Berry Avocado collection. 
according to the Organix website:
The shampoo and condition are An exotic nutrient luxurious blend of antioxidant rich acai berry extract and guava to instantly nourish and enrich your hair while avocado proteins add nutrition and balance along with Moroccan argan oil to moisturize your tresses and create a shiny, smooth, frizz-free finish. 

I have used the products a few times, and every time I use it I like it a little less.  The shampoo is alright, but the conditioner is nothing to run around and brag about.  My hair feels gross/gunky and it doesn't feel conditioned at all after using it.  The smell of the products is fantastic, I actually love the smell, but damn I hate the way my hair feels after using the combination of the shampoo and conditioner.  If I use the shampoo and then a different brand of conditioner there is a significant improvement, however it just feels like my hair has some build up on it and for just washing it I expect it to feel a little better than it does when I use this product.  I think that's fair, right? 

as for the product, I definitely will not be purchasing these exact products again.  I am fond of some of the other Organix products so I am not saying I will never purchase something from this line again, just definitely will not be buying these two, ever again.  Not worth the money even at buy one get one free. 

Have you ladies tried this shampoo and conditioner before?  What did you think?
