Great results with half the product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let’s talk about Kristin Ess Hair Peptide Restore Strengthening Shampoo. My first impression before we even get to the shampoo is that the packaging is a little bit difficult to try to squeeze the product out of. I thought the bottle was too thick but I was pleasantly surprised with how well this shampoo lathers and in fact only needed to use about half of what I normally use which makes this product a great value for me because with hair that is super thick and waist length it takes a lot of shampoo to wash it. I love that it didn’t weigh down my hair and was surprised by how bouncy and full of life my hair looked afterwards so this product is a win for me!

Great Strengthening Shampoo!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair feels so nice and healthy since I’ve been using this shampoo! It lathers nicely and smells fresh and clean. I’ve noticed less hair breakage since using and I’ve gotten compliments on my hair. I would recommend to everyone!

Smells great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Kristin Ess Peptide restore strengthening shampoo lathered very nicely upon applying to my hair. The instructions were spot on and it only took just one use for me to notice the difference in volume that my hair had. The packaging also makes it easy to store in any shower caddy.

Shampoo and Conditioner are terrible
Doesn’t lather very easily and smells like har dye, even after rinsed out, conditioned, and hair is dry. Love the Kristin Ess Curl line, but this one is terrible.

Game changer for weak dry hair
This peptide restore line has worked wonders for my bleach blonde hair. It cleans, shines, strengthens and has made my hair viral again. No, it does not lather much but that does not mean it’s not working. Rinse hair well before applying shampoo at the roots, let sit a good few minutes before rinsing. As for the conditioner, apply on all the ends of your hair only (without applying much to the root) which will cause hair to soften and fall. Let sit a good few minutes before rinsing but do not over rinse your hair. Follow by using the other products from this line such as the bond recovery treatment.

Nice Shampoo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Haircare line is very good. I was taken aback by how well it suited my fine hair. My hair game has flipped and I plan to keep it a staple for my every two or three day hair wash

Cute packaging but may not be for me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t really care for the scent of this product. The smell is unappealing to me. As for effectiveness it’s a good product but the shampoo left my hair feeling extra dry. The conditioner helped some but probably just wasn’t a product for my hair type possibly. I really like the sleek packaging it’s cute. I got this from Influenster to review.

Great shampoo!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this shampoo. It left my hair feeling nice. Not dried out. It smells great and did a fantastic job of getting my hair clean. I didn't have to use as much of it as I do with some others, which was also nice. Overall, a great product.

For softer hair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Peptide Restore Strengthening Shampoo and really like it. It’s sulfate-free, vegan, and makes my hair feel softer, shinier, and stronger. The honey-cream scent is sweet but not overpowering. The bottle looks pretty, though it’s a bit awkward to squeeze. Works great on my fine-to-medium hair, but I can see how it might be too drying for coily textures.

Major hair loss
Ever since I started using this product I’ve had major hair loss like I’ve never had before. At first I thought it was me but it continued much longer than normal. Will never use this product line again.

Hated
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m sorry to say, but I really despised this product. It left my hair feeling like it had this weird greasy heavy residue on it almost like a waxy residue the shampoo smelt nice and lathered well but unfortunately, I’m not a fan.

Works great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried this product before but a different one and i must say that it works wonders! However I really didn’t care for the scent. Because the others usually have people asking and loving the scent.

Tacky hair after wash
This shampoo smells nice, not a fresh scent, but more of a amber musk scent. However it has made my hair tacky and it doesn’t feel clean after lathering up, even in the shower I feel like a need another shampoo after washing with it. I usually wash my hair every other day but this shampoo doesn’t allow for that. It’s kinda disappointing.

Budget friendly and effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this duo for a few weeks now, and it’s actually been amazing for my frizzy, wavy hair. The shampoo gives a good clean without stripping my hair, and the conditioner is super creamy but doesn’t weigh anything down. Right after rinsing, my hair feels soft and smooth, and even better after it dries. Usually I have to fight with my waves to get them to look halfway decent, but this combo makes styling so much easier. My hair feels healthier, has more shine, and the frizz is way more under control. I still use a leave-in, but this definitely laid the foundation for my hair to feel stronger and more manageable. Also, the scent is super clean and light—not too strong, which I really appreciate. Just a solid, reliable set that actually does what it says. This brand is budget friendly and it does have that quality that I trust.

Works wonders
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this system! My hair feels so much better after using this! The shampoo lathers very nicely and definitely leaves my hair feeling super clean! It smells great as well. The bottle is a bit small but I was surprised at how long it actually lasts. I was happy with the ingredients list as it’s mostly pretty clean. Definitely a great price point for the results you get.
