Editor Review

Rated a 5.5

The first in Matrix's four steps to straight hair, this sweet-smelling shampoo tries its best to address the frizz-frustration of the coarse-haired. But you really need to use all four products to notice the shampoo's claimed benefits. We'll grant that it decreases volume and bushiness, so it's easier to tame hair with a blow-dryer or flatiron. Plus, the smoothers are lightweight enough to last a few days, which eases the pain of the moderate price tag.

    You've got to try this!

    by Maryrigby (3 reviews)
    I love this shampoo and the entire sleek look line(orange bottle). I have very wavy hair and really like it straighter and this is a product that works for me. My stylist recommended it and I've used it for almost two years. It's great - try it! December 6, 2007, 7:35 pm

    I've used this smoothing shampoo for quite awhile. I'm fairly satisfied with my hair, but I do need to use a conditioner and detangler after using this product. My hair is naturally dark brown, but I have heavy bleach highlights. I like the more natural scent as opposed to strong perfume smell. I will stick with this sh...ampoo unless someone recommends another that I decide to try or a stylist uses another on my hair that I prefer. If you need smoothing, you'll be CONTENT using this shampoo. November 12, 2007, 3:22 pm

    Won't dry hair

    by BrookeRyan (3 reviews)
    My hair stylist from since I was child suggested tihs product to me. She knows my hair better than I do and she was absolutely right on. This shampoo helps hydrate my hair without overdoing it. I have had issues with other shampoos being too heavy and this one is totally different! Even in college with the not so nice t...o my hair dorm water, this shampoo kept my hair looking great!!

    Love it

    by tahoesuz (7 reviews)
    I use this shampoo although I have fine,straight hair to begin with. I not only love the way it makes your hair smell, it also tames any frizzies I get while blow drying. It also leaves my hair with more volumne than I normally have. May 19, 2008, 1:59 am

    I even use on bleached hair

    by pogosthecat (5 reviews)
    You defiately have to use conditioner to go along with the shampoo, but has worked great for me. I have Bleach blond hair and my hair is still really soft. I also straighten my hair and it helps to make the many many curls I have relax some so that even if I decide not to straighten my hair for a day the curls look better. May 16, 2008, 10:02 am

    Yuck

    by gapeachblush (15 reviews)
    I used this product for a while and my hair got so stiff and dry. I hate it because it was pricy for that size bottle. The only thing good about it was that I could go two days without my hair getting oily. B/c it was dry as crap. May 2, 2008, 9:31 pm

    Not Worth It

    by blester (12 reviews)
    I've used this product with all the others in this line and found that it doesn't moisturize enough. Hair is still frizzy. Neutrogena Triple Moisture shampoo works better with the other Matrix products in this line. December 11, 2007, 6:00 am

    Save your money!

    by drosch (4 reviews)
    I went out and bought the four steps in this line. Not happy at all. The shampoo is not a big deal. I paid $21 for my bottle and I will never do it again! The cheaper shampoo's work just as good if not better. The only thing I like about it is the smell. November 3, 2009, 1:56 pm

    The best for getting sleek hair...

    by staci09 (20 reviews)
    that I've found at least. Always wanted to have shiny and sleek hair and never knew how to achieve it. Then I was introduced to a flat iron and this shampoo and I almost cried I was so happy! I get so many compliments on my hair when I use this. From "it's so shiny!" to "it looks great! What are you using?&q...uot;. Smells great too. Can get a huge bottle of this, and the conditioner, for a great price when it's on sale at ULTA. Only complaint is that it's really heavy on the silicone so even when I use a small amount of the shampoo and conditioner, and even the shampoo alone, my hair gets really oily he next day. I can't go my usual two days of not having to wash my hair when I use this. Very inconvenient but still worth it for the look and feel if gives my hair. August 21, 2009, 3:18 pm
