major hair loss
This shampoo makes my hair fall out like crazy every time I use it. I thought it might be just be my hair shedding more than usual, but it doesn’t fall out when I use any other shampoo.

Must have for curly girlies!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This smelled so good in my hair! I would get compliments everyday on how good my hair smelled and how much my curls looked refreshed. Convenient packaging for travel and worth it for the price! I will be buying again.

Threw It Away
This did not work well for our curls. We also bought the gel and conditioner, and it left our hair dry, tangled and sticky. I had to throw it away.

Didnt dry my curls
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My scalp gets really dirty from products and using this twice really helped make sure my hair was clean. I always shampoo twice and using this product really helped get the job done. I usually feel my curls dry but with this shampoo it felt clean without the dry. The packaging is super sleek and easy to squeeze. Definitely worth the money and real affordable.

Not great
I got this for my 6 year old, she has curly hair and I figured it would be great for her hair. I noticed her hair getting thinner and thinner everything I used it. So unfortunately I had to stop using it. It was very disappointing because I use their products for so many things.

I'm NEVER going back!
I started using this product maybe 6 months ago and I love it! My hair is kind of in between curly and wavy and this product is great for all curl types! It smells amazing and leaves your hair feeling soft and not at all greasy! Would totally recommend to curly hair beginners as well as their conditioner!

Must try!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] OMG, besties, let’s talk about Not Your Mother’s Curl Talk Bond Building Shampoo! My curls were on life support: dry, frizzy, sad, but after one wash, this magic potion had them bouncing like they just got back from a spa day. The lather? So rich and dreamy, but no stripping! It’s like my curls went to therapy and came back stronger. Plus, it’s sulfate-free, silicone-free, AND vegan, so my hair feels pampered and guilt-free. My waves and curls feel hydrated, soft, and totally frizz-free. If you’re looking for that “I woke up like this” curl perfection, girl, this is IT. 10/10, would let this shampoo whisper sweet nothings to my hair again.

Great conditioner
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great conditioner , I like that it does not have a strong scent to it ! It made my daughter’s curls look so nice! I like the slim looking packaging! Definitely recommend it.

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Not Your Mother's Curl Talk Bond Building Shampoo for a few weeks now, and I'm thrilled with the results. The shampoo has a great consistency—it's not too thick or too runny. It lathers up nicely, which makes my curls feel thoroughly cleaned without stripping them of moisture. What I really appreciate about this shampoo is its gentle formula. It doesn’t leave my hair feeling dry or tangled, which is a big plus for curly hair. The scent is pleasant but not overpowering, which is great for those with sensitive noses. Overall, this shampoo has become a staple in my hair care routine, and I highly recommend it for anyone with curly hair looking for a gentle yet effective shampoo.

Classic
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always struggle with using products that help my curly hair that are safe for my hair. I have very dry strands and I’ve used very expensive products that do not help. But these always do. I always come back to Not Your Mothers products because not only are they cheap but they work! My hair is always soft and strong and manageable when I use their line. Plus they smell pretty!

My Go To Product Line
This is my go to shampoo for my curly, frizzy hair. I use this brand shampoo, conditioner, leave in conditioner and curl cream in addition to other products after I wash my hair. This seems to help make my hair look nice and keeps the frizz away.

Amazing Shampoo!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is amazing! To start off, it smells great and comes out of the bottle super easy! It’s been amazing for my curls, the shampoo and conditioner both help my hair so much. It’s also helped to hydrate and make it feel healthier while giving it a nice clean feeling. And to top it all off, it doesn’t break the bank! Highly recommend for anyone with curly hair!

Good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging is super cute and easy to use but for some reason a little harder than the conditioner. has a nice calm scent that smells so good. Texture doesn’t leave a weird residue.

Shampoo and conditioner
It was not good for me. It made my hair look sugar thin and unhealthy. Also made my hair fall out. I would not recommend this item to anyone.

Hi there! We are sorry to hear about your experience. All of our products go through rigorous testing procedures to ensure their safety and effectiveness before they are distributed to customers. We are very confident that none of the ingredients would cause hair loss in any of our collections. Aside from possible allergies to certain ingredients, we cannot pinpoint an exact cause for a systemic response with a high degree of certainty. More often than not, extreme hair loss and changes in scalp condition are more influenced by internal factors (medical conditions, stress, hormones, etc.) than by physical mechanisms (e.g., which shampoo you use), which is why medical advice is crucial, and we recommend consulting a licensed physician. That being said, we still recommend discontinuing use of any products you believe may be contributing to hair loss or excessive breakage. Please reach out to our customer support team. They will be happy to assist you further.

Definitely a must-try for anyone with curly hair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this shampoo as a free product, and it’s been amazing for my curls! It gently cleanses without stripping moisture, and I noticed my curls felt stronger and more defined after just a few uses. The scent is light and pleasant, and it pairs perfectly with the rest of the Curl Talk line.
