Review on ๐Ÿ’Ž OGX Smoothing + Liquid Pearl Shampoo: Ultimate Shine and Fragrance, 13 Ounce by Scott Adaymiln

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not the best shampoo

Let me start by saying that I have waist length, thick, curly/wavy hair that is prone to frizz. I normally use Aquage, but I'm always looking for something more economical and (hopefully) performing as well, if not better. Overall, there's nothing special about this line (I bought the shampoo, conditioner, and serum). It's not the best straightening line I've ever used and it didn't completely eliminate frizz or make my hair "shiny," but it didn't add frizz to my hair either. I used it for a few days and experimented. with styling: Day 1, I used all 3 products (4 pumps of serum) and let them dry overnight; This leaves the hair less frizzy than using a regular shampoo, but nothing major. On day 2 I used all 3 products but added 2 extra servings of serum (6 pumps of serum) and allowed to air dry overnight; The result was less frizzy than the night before but my hair was a bit sticky and less shiny than usual. On day 3 I used all 3 products (6 pumps of serum) and let them air dry while I was awake and doing housework made The result was significantly less frizzy than if I let it dry in my sleep. I didn't notice any difference in the amount of shine, nor did I notice a sticky feeling, so the product must have spread better/differently through my hair. My hair is not as thick as usual. On day 4 I used all 3 products (6 doses of serum) and blow dried my hair as usual. While there is no noticeable stickiness and my hair feels soft, it is no shinier than usual and has a lot more frizz than I would like. I'm lacking in several areas - most notably in terms of frizz control. Will I use it again? Probably no. I definitely prefer the results from the Aquage line of products. UPDATE: After 5 days of use my hair has taken on the consistency of straw and lacks any natural shine or volume. Unfortunately the items have been returned and I hope the damage is not permanent.
