Beauty / Hair Products / Suave Professionals-Are They As Good?

After paying so much for the name brand shampoo and conditioner, I thought I would try a "compare to" product and see if it gave me the same results.  When I first opened up the shampoo bottle, the aroma was nearly identical to the name brand.  I like good smelling shampoo and conditioner, so I thought it was off to a good start.  The lather of the shampoo was good, it only took a small drop to cover my medium-length hair.  It felt like it rinsed clean, a definite plus.  I opened the conditioner, which had the same similar scent of the name brand.  It lathered well, but did feel a little thicker than the name brand.  I kept it on my hair for 60 seconds before rinsing, as I do with the name brand.  It rinsed okay, but felt like it took a little more water to rinse as well as the name brand rinses.  After drying my hair, I didn't notice much of a difference between either the shampoo or conditioner of the Suave brand and name brand.  Since Suave is significantly cheaper, I will definetely buy it instead!
