Plus, Ulta will sometimes have sales on the value sizes, like they do right now. Ulta also has a buy 1 get 1 50% off sale for select shampoos and conditioners.

SO happy to see my favorite HASK on your list! It’s such a great brand, both my husband and I love their products.
What a wonderfully helpful list of sulfate free shampoos and conditioners, Courtney! I have tried most of these brands, and really want to try BROO!
Great list. With a lot of these I’d have to go shopping to smell them though.
Okay, I have a few new brands to try, once I work through my current shower full of hair care products. Yeah… Don’t ask. It’s sad. It’s like Hoarders, in there.
I’m using EVA NYC and Carol’s Daughter for affordable options now, but you got me – i’ll try BROO for Color Treated Hair coz pina colada scent!
I love EVA NYC products, but they don’t make a sulfate free shampoo, which is why I didn’t include them.
