In their words

“The best shampoo ive ever used. I had my hair chemically straightened. It felt so dry and coarse. I tried everything even the Joico for damaged hair. So I did some researched found out that I should be using a moisture range so I ordered this straight away then ordered the biggest bottle I could. I got a comment yesterday saying my hair looked like a ruler it was that straight and shiny.”

Anongirl · verified purchase · lookfantastic.com

“Bought this for extremely dry frizzy hair that felt like it just needed a moisture boost. I saw people complain of the scent but I didn't mind it. I noticed my hair started to fall out a bit more than usual, but thought not much of it. Well after using it for over a month now, my hair has started to fall out by the fistful in the shower, when brushing etc.”
