A Classic that's even better than I remember
Thank you, Influenster and Paul Mitchell, for sending out this complimentary bottle of shampoo for an honest evaluation. I did encounter an issue opening the bottle up. I should have opened it dry. A small disaster ensued. I got the bottle open, then dropped it before being able to put the cap on, ...

Unfortunately, not for me.
I have a lot of sensitives and have been searching for a decent fragrance-free shampoo for years. Unfortunately, while I was so hopeful about this based on the simple ingredients, this was not a good choice for me. I found it super sticky and coating, ands quite drying. It also made my eyes feel ...

Clear scent free shampoo with the consistency of gel. Gentle foam removes dirt as well as any smells/perfumes out of your hair without stripping your hair. The magic happens when you rinse. The foam transforms into a silky smooth liquid reminding me of cream rinse. I was able to easily run my fingers through my nappy hair prepping it for the Clear scent free conditioner while quickly rinsing out the shampoo. Although I followed the shampoo with conditioner, my hair actually felt as if it didn't need conditioner. Clean and silky. Tip: If the shampoo and conditioner bottles are identical, I mark the top of the shampoo lid with a magic marker or a piece of tape.
I have coily hair...it works for me
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
This shampoo is amazing! It lathers beautifully and gives such a rich sudsy cleanse without stripping my hair. My coils felt soft, clean, and super refreshed after just one wash. It's hard to find something that works this well on textured hair, but this one truly delivered. Highly recommend!
Not for me!
I have fine, thin hair with a sensitive scalp. I couldn't get this product to lather despite wash, rinsing and repeating to try to get my scalp clean. It left my hair feeling greasy yet incredibly dry. I expected a better experience from Paul Mitchell. Will be returning.
Straw Hair!!!
I was so excited that Paul Mitchell came up with this product since I'm extremely sensitive to most shampoos and conditioners. I used it once and hated it immediately. It doesn't sud; I washed my hair 3 times to get a little sud going. it's SUPER drying!!! I had to brush my hair for 20 min to get the tangles out. Sadly this is a complete fail!
Great
