Gee, Your Hair Smells Terrific was a popular shampoo in the 1970s and 1980s. Manufactured by the Andrew Jergens Company, the shampoo had a strong floral scent that softened after rinsing and remained with the user's hair for some time. While out of production in the United States, the formula was sold to Vibelle Manufacturing Corporation of Malabon City, Philippines and is currently sold in the Philippines, where it is still popular. In the United States, Gee, Your Hair Smells Terrific shampoo and conditioner are sold through the Vermont Country Store, which has licensed the trademark rights.
The product's unusually long name was satirized on The Simpsons. A sports venue on the show had been named "The Gee your Hair Smells Terriffic Arena."
