I have really liked some of the L'oreal Vive products, mainly the ones in the yellow bottles (the name escapes me), also the pink is ok, the yellow really makes damaged hair look healthier. I saw...

All I have to say is, YUCK. I will never buy this shampoo/conditioner again. It weighed down my hair, left buildup, and made it greasy. I was initially drawn to it because of the flashy...

Well... it's certainly smoothing and definitely not stripping... after a few uses, it made me feel like I had poured melted wax over my scalp and I had to switch to a harsher shampoo just to get...

This was really cheap at the store and I needed shampoo so i thought i'd try it. I had no idea of the disaster to come. It has a very thick consistency, which was alright, smelled fine, and when I...

I am reviewing the Vive Pro Smooth Intense shampoo for Dry, Frizzy, Rebellious Hair-Medium Texture. The companion conditioner is not good at all, at least not for my dry naturally curly hair. Am...

I"m on my second bottle of this shampoo and I love it. Along with the shampoo. Its moisturizing, but clean rinsing and doesn't weight hair down. I am never faithful to shampoos and conditioners -...

This shampoo does help frizz a little but it leaves a scalp buildup & I don't like the smell. I've been spoiled by Trader Joe's shampoo now so I won't be buying this again.

This product was great-----but only for about 3 hrs after I shampooed. After 3 hours, my head would be so oily and disgusting. This shampoo did wonders for making my hair really silky, soft and...

I used this about 2 years ago. It works fine as a shampoo and I didn't notice any build-up, but it just didn't seem to make my hair any smoother after I straightened it.

Horrible, just horrible! Has the consistency of honey, and looks like honey, but once you lather up it's more like greasy, nasty thick gel. Does not wash out and leaves an oily feeling residue in...

I really like this. Most shampoos that are smoothing or whatever tend to weigh down my hair, but this leaves it smooth yet full of body (which is hard to do on my nearly waist-length, very thick...
