Severe Hair Loss – Please Be Careful!
I purchased the Matrix Food for Soft Shampoo and Conditioner back in May, around the same time I started a new seizure medication. Within a week, I noticed significantly increased hair fallout. At first, I assumed it was related to the new medication. I tried everything — increased my hair vitamins,...

Hair shed!!
I got the shampoo and conditioner combo back in July and have been using it every shower. The hair fall out is bad! I'm once again finding hairs on me during the day, my counter is littered with hair, my bathroom etc. it does leave my hair super soft and less frizzy. I really thought I found the shampoo for me.
Hair loss
My hair is already thin and i noticed my hair started to fall out a lot when i would shower ive never had that happen before lol i got scared and immediately stopped using it.
Saved my Hair!
I learned that I have dry hair and this product has been a game changer, I dye my hair often which makes it dry and more tangled when I was it. The shampoo and conditioner combined make your hair so soft amd cleans it so well. I recommend this to anyone with thick dry hair like mine, this product really works! I will keep buying!

Worth the money
I used a color remover on my hair that absolutely dried my ends out. My hair felt like hay. I tried multiple hair masks and nothing was working until i started using this shampoo and conditioner combo. After just one use my hair feels amazing and my ends feel back to normal. This is my first time buying a pricey shampoo/conditoner and it was definitely worth the money.
Transformed my hair
I have very and thin wavy to straight hair. I have tried everything for years to stop breakage. Ive been using both shampoo and conditioner for well over a month. My hair is no longer breaking, looks and feels amazing. Even with having an oily scalp my hair is clean and not weighed down. Best part is my hair density is starting to fill in. At 54 I had given up on stopping breakage. I don't color or heat style my hair. But the breakage is finally under control after 5-6 years of nothing working to stop it!
