Most Helpful Positive Review Best Feeling Air Dried, Natural Hair Wow! This shampoo has left everyone in my family with such healthy and easyily cared for, beautiful hair! The women and men have tried this shampoo, and cooresponding conditioner for the ladies, and our hair is so soft, tamed and easy to care for/ style when using this product! The hair types of my family range from Straight, Medium to Thick, Course, Slightly Wavy. We all have dark hair with beautiful natural highlights. My brother washes his hair everyday and has great results! The ladies wash their hair every other day or as needed, combined with the conditioner and all of our hair types end up, after towel and air dry, perfectly soft, not frizzy, hydrated, and easy to style. The shampoo lathers very well, which is nice when compared to some of the other shampoos with similar ingredients. When rinsing off the shampoo it is easy to tell that it is all out. When done, it does feel slightly "dry" like other sulfate free shampoos, but don't be alarmed! Your hair will feel so clean and hydrated after even near the scalp! The shampoo works best with the conditioner which feels a little light and runny, not thick like one would expect, but that too does not disappoint! When done, I would towel and air dry to allow the ingredients to work their magic! No one in my family uses heat to style or dry their hair. The only negative is the smell. It takes time to get used to the fragrance, and if you don't like ginger, this may be a pass for you because of the smell! I will say that when dried, the fragrance isn't as heavy. The effects last days, and you don't need to use leave in products to achieve beautiful, strong strands! After a year of use, we have all seen less dry or splitends and definitely less frizz! The best shampoo I have ever used! Will be buying again soon!
Most Helpful Critical Review Stay away! Initially I was happy with the shampoo just as the conditioner. However, after a month I would say my hair was getting extremely straw like and dry at the ends and the top was flat. Not only that I started noticing my hair thinning! I already have fine hair I did not need this. Turns out that over use of protein is not good for your hair. I am still on the look out for my HG shampoo and conditioner.

Allergic Reaction 2
Feather from CA
I liked the way it lathered but then my skin started getting itchy. Might have had allergy to one of the ingredients
Oooh...soft! 4

This is a weird one. It's a sulfate shampoo without any of the "harsh" sulfates people associate with them. The result is a really satisfying, fine-grained lather that cleans extremely well but feels very different from SLS shampoo. This is not a super gentle or hypoallergenic shampoo. But it strikes a nice balance between conventional SLS/SLES formulations and purely cocamidopropyl betaine formulations. So it's well within the comfort zone for just about anyone. This one is different from the main Paul Mitchell awapuhi shampoos, and worth a try if you like other formule with similar surfactants. The only negatives I really have to say are that cocomidopropyl betaine is sensitizing and irritating for a lot of people, there's a bit of controversy around it. Also, if I use this shampoo without clarifying for an extended period my hair gets weirdly light and fluffy. I suspect this is due to this product either not cleansing out certain things or depositing them, making my hair repel itself on an ionic level. May be solved with certain products or blow drying, havent really found the solution there.
Really loving it! 5

This shampoo keeps my hair feeling silky and fresh. I have always loved Paul Mitchell's products and was thrilled to receive this one as a gift. It smells wonderful, lathers nicely, and rinses well.
I will buy this product forever! 5

Rachel from Charleston, SC
It did no better than any drug store brand and I can say that I have had better end results with every other product I have ever used. I used this with the same type conditioner I got with it and the conditioner acted no better than rubbing ginger scented mayo on my hair. In other words, if I was given them both again I would throw away the conditioner and use the shampoo when I ran out of everything else in the house.
Best Shampoo EVER. 5
Lety from Pearland,TX
This has been my shampoo for years. I was first introduced to this shampoo by my salon when I was first getting color treatment. Having naturally curly and color treated hair I have to take great care of my hair. I have since left my salon but have stayed loyal to this product. I also use to have to change my shampoo every 6 months because after working for a few months I would start to get itchy scalp and dandruff. No such issue with this shampoo. It makes my hair feel healthy, and soft which I feel keeps my curls looking at their best.

Love this product. 5
Marty from Newark, OH
My daughter and I have used this shampoo for a number of years. It is the only shampoo that gives me the body and manageability I desire. Periodically I try other brands and they just do not measure up to this one. Love it.
Love love love! 5

I think this is one of the best shampoos I have used in a long time.
Love this shampoo. It is a little too pricey 5

So soft 5
BeautyJunkie from highland CA
I have bleached hair. The other reviewer was right using too much protein an brittle your hair straw like feeling. But if you look at other shampoos their are ingredients that has protein in them also. I alternate from clarifying shampoo, purple shampoo and hydrate. wash maybe 2-3x a week. Alternate is the key. try to stay away from dimethicone but if you use hair serums you do need a clarifying shampoo. Most hair serums have dimethicone and to get rid of them is to clary them so they dont build up. What Im trying to say is find a balance. I have learned that from my hair Stylist. It help out so much. Used dry shampoo when really needed between wash. etc. etc.
Stay away! 1

Best of the BEST 5
AshleyM from Illinois
I have tried every shampoo/conditioner combo. This one is by far my favorite. I have hair that gets oily quick, but is also very frizzy. This helps both! It took a bit to get used to how runny the conditioner is, but my stylist taught me to towel dry my hair before conditioning (and only condition the ends) and that has made a difference. I love how much this lathers; it makes me feel like my hair is getting so clean (and it does!) So glad Ulta now carries the liter size!! I have been waiting for this forever🙌🏼
