No more green hair!!
I am a competitive swimmer with red hair. I am in the pool 6 days a week plus in the summer I love going to the pool and having fun. But the chlorine always made my hair get a green-like tint to it!!! It would be like Christmas in June. I tried all the shampoos that are 'designed for swimmers' but t...

There are better clarifying shampoos
I have thick long hair and this shampoo stayed in my hair for a week after! Each time I wet my hair to get ready to wash it would sud back up! Bubbles and suds everywhere! I would use sparingly and not very often. I literally couldn't figure out why my hair was so dry and tangled and this was the re...

An Important Part of My Hair Reset
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
This shampoo is one of the best I've ever used for hair clarifying. It's very effective at breaking down product and protein buildup and hard water minerals deep within the cuticle layer. Everything else used afterward, like leave-in deep conditioners and styling products, work wonderfully now! My hair is not straw. Nothing about my hair looks, dull, frizzy or dry. My thick, type 3A/3B, porous, non-oily, post menopausal hair is actually softer and more flexible, has less frizz and more natural shine, and has a stronger curl pattern. I use Paul Mitchell's Shampoo Two (the regular clarifying shampoo) for every single wash and on the alternate wash, I use both Two and Three for a second shampoo. I follow up by using Curlsmith's Curl Conditioning Oil-in-Cream leave-in and letting the curls pop! Day 2 and 3 hair is retouched with water and a tiny, diluted amount of curl cream. My guess for why my hair behaves beautifully is because this shampoo regimen minimizes stubborn hair product and protein build-up; the build-up which I believe gets stuck in the cuticle layer, creates frizz, and interferes with conditioners and styling products.

Great product to deep cleanse hair to remove impurities. I use before I get color.
They have ruined this shampoo!
This has been my go-to for years. It was how I kept my hair decent when I swam competitively. Not it is utter junk. I repeated about 5 times and it never lathered. My hair is tangled and full of chlorine today. This brand is dead to me.
Works well, smell not great

I love this shampoo, I just wish it smelled better. It's not a "bad" smell. It's really light and boring.
Best for Low Porosity hair

Paul Mitchell Shampoo 3 is the best for curly hair low porosity hair. My hair was easily to get build up so fast from curly hair products. I am looking higher of pH level, and this shampoo is perfect, I use this once a week. Then moisture/protein balance mask.
