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.

I have tried every trendy hair product for frizz on the market and always come back to straight works. I have long, sort of curly hair that isn't cute curly. I need to blow it out. This makes my hair so smooth and stays smooth after 3 days of not shampooing. I'll never stop using this product.

The GOAT!!!
Verified Buyer
I've tried every smoothing product out there. Every new one, every more expensive one and I always come back to this one. I have long, VERY thick, VERY curly hair and it never disappoints me, even in the gross heat and humidity in the summer! High quality ingredients, it's water soluble and you don't have the heavy build-up that you get from other brands. This product is the holy Grail of all smoothing products!!
I like this product
Verified Buyer
I have wavy hair but my right side is more curly and frizzy. I saw this product on YouTube and thought I'd give it a try. I like the soft wavy results. You need to apply while hair is soaking wet and use praying hands method to rub in then start scrunching hair with head hanging down. Then wrap in a tee shirt blotting out excess moisture and do more scrunching with tee shirt. Let hair air dry. Using towels cause hair to frizz and is too rough on hair.
Didn't do anything
I read all the reviews so I was really excited to try this! My hair is poofy, wavy, and looks awful when I dry so I wanted to try this to hopefully not have to use as much heat on my hair. It literally did nothing. I tried using a little amount and the next time I tried more and it still did absolutely nothing.
