Q: Is this ideal for low porosity hair? Trying to find a replacement for the low porosity line of Shea Moisture. Thanks!
submitted by maesmith - 2 years ago
A: Due to the presence of protein in this product, we wouldn't suggest it for low porosity hair. Our best line for low porosity hair at the moment is the Red Palm and Cocoa Butter line!

Q: My son is allergic to coconut oil. I did not see anything that looked like coconut oil on the list; however, I did see essential oils and know that coconut is often mixed in with essential oils. Can you tell me if there is any coconut in this product?
submitted by Amanda - 4 years ago
A: Our Essential Oil Blend is proprietary. We recommend doing a patch test prior to use to rule out any irritation or allergy.
Hated it. Had to use a ton of product to cover head. And made my hair so greasy, and wet feeling.

My hair is usually dry when I wash. After washing you can feel the middle is dried and clumped. I tried this shampoo a year again and it is the only shampoo I use. First shampoo to leave my hair feeling hydrated after a wash. I also use the conditioner and hair masque. When I apply condition I can tell during application if my hair is absorbing the conditioner. This absorbs!! If you have dry brittle hair this is a must try!!

I have been using this shampoo for some days now during my night showers with the conditioner that goes with it. I like the bottle design. The texture is like any other shampoo. The smell is not amazing but it's not bad neither, it's average. The shampoo foams well and leaves the hair hydrated and clean. Overall I like this shampoo but I would have preferred a better smell of honey and fig. #freeproduct

Best shampoo ever! Especially if your hair is dry or damaged. I’m 58 years young and bleach my hair, after bleaching my hair and swimming in a highly chlorinated pool my hair was like straw! I was afraid to brush it because it was brittle, crunchy and dry. I bought this shampoo hoping it would help a little, WOW! After washing my hair with this and following up with the conditioner my hair became soft and bouncy! My hair looks shiny and is soft! There’s not a lot of lather which is good! My bleach blonde hair looks better than it did 25 years ago! I’m going to keep buying this! Healthy Shiny hair!

Comes out quite liquid but once you foam it up with your hands, the lather is there. It’s very refreshing and non-stripping.

so far so good. I have 4b-4c relaxed hair and I’m starting my journey of taking care of my own hair between relaxers. This shampoo took quite a bit to come to a nice lather on my scalp but once I rinsed it out my hair felt really good and moisturized.

It Performance is superb as expected, viscosity is a bit runny for my liking but it's still ok, however, the smell is terrible! It smells like a rusty bloody knife and I've tried perceiving it several times in case I've developed my high sense of smell again. But it still smells like I described but I don't know if it's that particular batch or the product has expired. Moreover, in my ingredients list, honey is missing.

The formula of this product has drastically changed, which tells me that it is no longer made by the original maker. The shampoo is extremely drying to the point that it stripped my hair and made it dry and dull looking. The shampoo is extremely watery and does not larger well at all. I will not purchase anymore Star Moisture products ever.

You don't even need to have the conditioner as a helper with this product! Leaves my hair smelling amazing. And it usually takes a lot of shampoo for my hair to continue smelling good the next day, but with this product it doesn't! Swear by it when my hair is dry and needs reviving. Definitely would recommend to friends.

I have very oily hair. I’m one of those people that switch shampoo and conditioner after every bottle because I could never find something I was totally satisfied with. This has been the only shampoo I’ve stuck with a repurchased! I can go 3-4 days between washes without getting oily!
