Must have for my hair
I have been using Paul Mitchell's Straight Works for more years than I can remember. I combine it with Paul Mitchell's skinny serum onto damp hair. It leaves my hair shiny and healthy. It is a product I cannot be without.

Years and years and still the best
I first got this several years ago for free at a festival and used it on towel dried hair, pea -dime sized amount and then blow dry. It always left my long, wavy, prone to frizz red hair sleek and smooth after a dry without any greasing or weighing it down. If I didn't use it I would realize it after the fact when my hair didn't turn out well and be kicking myself. One day I lost it on a trip or ran put out something and forgot about it for years. I tried many many other products and then eventually just recently remembered it again when seeing it on the shelf. I purchased it and bam, my hair blew out good again, better than the more expensive more acclaimed products I had picked up along the way. I won't be forgetting about this stuff ever again. HG status.
YES 10 times over!
I love this so much, it smooths my hair like nothing else. I like it so much more than the skinny serum which is too heavy for my hair. I hope they don't stop making this!

I do not recommend this product not only did it dry my hair, but it did absolutely nothing. My hair is curly and frizzy so I was really excited to try this product unfortunately it was a pure disappointment. Thank Paul Mitchel my hair hates me more than ever. I will never use this product again, it said to put a little bit, but it did not work so I put more shocker shocker nothing happened. Bottom line is do not waste your money on a product that does nothing and the cheery on top breaks my hair and dries it out. Do not tell me I did not warn you.
Love This
This stuff is amazingly. Smooths my frizz and makes my hair nice and shiny and manageable.
It really smothers out

It really smothers out my hair and make me my curls almost slippery, but I can't use it everyday or it builds up and only in small amounts. Paul Mitchell Straight Works
