Frequently asked

Is Pureology worth the money?

Yes — Pureology is actually cheaper per fl oz than the middle of the market. Measured per fl oz, Pureology sits below the $4.73 category median, so there is no premium to justify — buy it on preference, not as a splurge. The one caveat is pack size: a small bottle can still be a large total spend even at a fair price per fl oz, so check the sticker as well as the unit cost.

Why is Pureology so expensive?

It isn't, measured properly. Pureology reads as a premium brand, but at $4.22 per fl oz it actually comes in below the $4.73 median of the 831 hair & body listings we track. The bottle is small; the price per fl oz is not high.

How much does Pureology cost per fl oz?

$4.22 per fl oz at the median, from $2.13 at the cheapest Pureology product we track. The average Pureology item we track sells for $45.

What would Pureology cost me a year?

At 6 fl oz a month (6 fl oz a month), Pureology works out to about $25 a month — $304 a year. The cheapest hair & body we track would run $77 a year instead.
