L’Oreal Paris Smooth Intense Smoothing Shampoo Review

by Dharu

Today let’s talk about my most absolute oxygen of my hair. This shampoo, bless my friend who took me to mantra mall in Bangalore caught my eye as soon as I saw the word smooth. Coming to my hair, I have extreme bouncy, curly and frizzy dark chocolate brown hair. Frizz is something of pain to me. Otherwise my hair is soft to touch. As soon as I used this, I was hooked. Can you believe if I say I chunked one whole bottle of Sunsilk yellow shampoo because I just couldn’t get enough of this?

My Take on L’Oreal Paris Smooth Intense Smoothing Shampoo:

This L’Oreal shampoo omes in a golden cream bottle with a flip cap. Pretty easy to take and available in smaller variants as well, so travel friendly.

The shampoo is in golden cream colour. Extremely creamy in texture and lathers really well (I was scared first but later learnt that sls is not the only lathering agent used in shampoos and it’s pretty mild in this product to retain nourishment). The fragrance is amazing and doesn’t irritate at all. Lingers on my hair till next wash.

Ah here comes my favourite part of the review ~ working of the product!

Controls frizz for 48 hours? Yes. Actually if used with the whole range ,my hair stays for 4 days frizz free. And my out of bed hair barely tangled. So no hair fall and hair knots. Root to tip smooth hair? Yes yes yes
4X smoother? I say 10X smoother!

My mom, brother and everyone in the family have been using this for years now. It’s pretty difficult for my mom to use anything other than Amway (She is not using any other soap other than Amway one for 13 years) So figure. It does everything it claims and more.

While using for oiled hair, the hair may seem oily but it’s not. Don’t use more than once unless absolutely necessary. Twice the amount showed here is enough for shoulder length hair. I use on castor oiled hair (we all know how difficult it is to remove), 8 hour over night nourishment and still it removes in one wash. Massage gently but from root to tip properly till you feel you have got as much lather as you can (don’t ever ever rub. That’s the key for frizz)

I use this along with the conditioner and the serum. If used with conditioner only, then it’s completely silicone free package. Serum has one silicone in it (but it works perfectly if used all together (only this range I don’t mind the silicone in the serum). If you have a silicone free serum then you have hit a jackpot. Don’t get scared of sls in this, it’s pretty mild actually and didn’t damage my hair at all for 5 years.

What I like about this Shampoo:

• Perfect smell
• Perfect hair
• Perfect texture
• Perfect claims
• Perfect work
• Need I say perfect again?

What I didn’t like about this Shampoo:

• I don’t think I have written here anything. Nope (consider this as an empty column.)

MABH Rating: 100/5

Do I Recommend?:

Hell yeah. It’s a must for almost every curly haired woman on the planet and people who suffer in humid conditions. Well still i think every girl needs this. Except oily haired ones.. pity

Would I Repurchase?

Lost count! I think 29th bottle or something. And I always get the big ones :)

Have you ever tired Loreal Smooth Intense Products? How are they?
