Most Helpful Positive Review My hair tends to be... My hair tends to be unruly at times and tend to curl if I let it. I recently cut it to a cropped pixie and find while using the entire line of Smooth Intense products that I can go longer between washing/styling my hair which is a big deal for those of us with short hair because normally in the morning my hair would stick up in all the wrong places. Good products that deliver on what they claim and people compliment my hair. Thank you L'oréal!!
Most Helpful Critical Review Not Good for Damaged Hair I received this product free in exchange for my honest review. I have extensive knowledge of hair and hair products from working in hair salons for several years. This product claims to repair damaged hair, but the second ingredient is alcohol, which is extremely drying. The fourth ingredient is a wax, which will cost the hair and initially make it feels softer and healthier, but it just masks the damage and ends up doing more harm as the wax builds up on your hair. The first ingredient that isn't harmful to your hair is almond oil, which is the 11th ingredient. Everything before that (excluding water) is either an alcohol, wax, sulfate, or frangrance. There's barely any nourishing ingredients in this product. It is mostly composed of cheap fillers. I would not recommend this product to anyone

I like the shampoo and conditioner of this line. I don't feel my hair comes out any smoother or shinier, but it might be preventing damage
Great for thin straight hair. 5

Only shampoo and conditioner I need for my hair. I cant find it anywhere.
Not as good as the original 1
BringBackOrginalSleekStr8 from Alabama, USA
I got this product in store to try since the original Elvive sleek and straight shampoo & conditioner was discontinued. I was extremely disappointed. The original did wonders and kept me a faithful customer. This one just wasn't cutting it.
Doesn't do anything 2

Didn't work for me. No hydration at all…
Love the Frizz Control 5

I bought this 2 weeks ago. Have been using for several years. I hate the fact it is almost impossible to find.
Made my 3b/3c hair healthy again 5
Diana from NY
I have curly, medium textured hair with some coarse strands that get very dry and brittle if they're not thoroughly moisturized. When I tried the CGM, my hair became super dry and tangled over time. The silicones in this product keep hair detangled, smooth, and strong. My hair is finally recovering from all the deva curl damage thanks to this life saver.
Wow! Have I found the product for me!! 5
Intruder97 from Spokane, WA
Tried this for the first time and was amazed at the results - smooth, sleek hair, NO frizzies sticking out, dried hair faster than normal. LOVE this! And this is coming from a female who has spend over 65$ for a product this size with many fancy brands trying to find something that worked! I threw everything else away and will stick with the Elvive Total Repair forever now!!
Surprisingly Good 5
AthenasOwl from Las Vegas NV
I was pleasantly surprised by this product's performance. The polyquaternium-37 does the heavy lifting for moisture and improving the feel of the hair. Definitely needed more than a 'small amount' for my dense curly hair though. It's well priced and smells lovely.
One use and I'm a believer! 5

My once super-easy hair has been damaged beyond belief after wrongfully trusting one of those "made for you!" customizable hair care companies. I have spent the last year trying strengthen my hair, get rid of split ends, give any volume at all, bring back the waves I used to have, and desperately trying to make sure I don't lose any more hair (I have an awful thinned out spot right at the back of my part now!). I've had some, but not great, success so far…until now! I picked up this Elvive mask and tried it out last night. I used my regular shampoo, then used my regular conditioner (very quick application from root to tip, to untangle the thinned-out, damaged section on my scalp). Once I rinsed that out, I used this mask, fully saturating my hair from about the chin downwards, and working a little bit up towards the roots. I left it on for the recommended 3-5 minutes and rinsed. Used no additional product, did not try to encourage curls in my hair, nothing.
When I woke up this morning, I had the most perfect wave on a little section right by my face, as well as several hints of waves throughout the rest of my hair. It all fell out within an hour of being up and moving, but that's okay…that's the most I've seen in about two years. Now that the waves are out, I can't stop marveling at my hair. It feels soft, silky, and weightless, and has more shine than I've seen it have in a long time.
Only time will tell for long-term results, and I will continue my search for additional products to add to my arsenal, but I am truly amazed at the results of this.
As a final bonus, the scent is pleasant, not overpowering, and fairly neutral – I don't think it would "compete" with the scent of most other hair products!

I was just in Target, my go to shop for my shampoo, and it wasn't there. Please tell me you haven't discontinued it. It's the only thing that works. I'd give this shampoo an 11/10

I love this shampoo. It calms my hair and no more frizzy. But I can't find it at any of our stores. Was this discontinued. If so BRING IT BACK.

I needed something to help my fine wavy hair bring back elasticity, bounce and shine. This did the trick, I use it every other wash.
Dry and brittle 3
RedBlues from Georgia
I washed my hair with Herbal Essence Hydrating Coconut Shampoo (loved this) and followed with the Elvive Damage Eraser. Used heating cap for 20 minutes. Rinsed and blow dryed my hair. No change at all.

ReAlly love this product!! Help me a lot 4
Alik from Los Ángeles CA
My hair was so dry cuz I change the color too often so after a week using this product helps me a lot !!!! Feels more softly and I notice that my hair is not falling too much like before the only reason I don't give 5 starts is cuz I feel or I would like to have a bigger size and just came in one.
Great Product 5
Kay from California
My thick, curly hair loves this product. I am always looking for a good treatment for my dry, color treated hair. I have spent alot of money on expensive brands but nothing comes close the Elvive Total Repair 5 Damage-Erasing Balm. After using once, my hair was so soft and silky! The smell is wonderful, not too strong. I am hooked and will definitely purchase again.
Incredible! 5
DeanaM from Tx.
I am so happy with this product. It truly works amazingly. I had very dry hair from being out in the sun. My hair also was oily from using another brand that caused a chemical build up. I could not be happier with this product. I used it with the Elvie dry and damaged repair shampoo.
