laurabeth33 - Hair Type: I must be the odd man out because I've tried this poo several times over a month, even when I hadn't pooed at all for a week, and every time it left my hair dry, tangled, and rough-textured. I do like the fresh grapefruity fragrance though.
mermadelove - Hair Type: 4a Knowing this was designed as a clarifying shampoo, I water down a capful in about 1 1/2 cups of warm water and pour it over braided or twisted hair and squeeze to lather. THis stuff smells great and leaves my hair clean without feeling stripped. Don't know if it would stripped used at full strength, but it lasts longer watered down anyway! Will continue to use!

shein57 - Hair Type: 3a This shampoo wasn't the best, but it wasn't the worst either. I had wished it would have left my hair a little more hydrated, but instead it still seemed a little dried out. It works much better if a hydrating conditioner is generously applied afterward.

CurlA - Hair Type: 3a Great shampoo has a good sudsy-feeling lather. Does not strip your hair and cleanses very well. Doesn’t leave your hair dry like other similar products and most of all you don’t need a lot of and can use it often. Also when you apply the conditioner after it, it’s more effective.

QVCDiva - Hair Type: 4b It's an okay but not great shampoo. It cleansed but my hair was sort of left in no man's land. It wasn't left feeling stripped but it didn't feel great either. Not sure I will continue to use. I have had the best results with the KCNT and KCCC when I use the complete line of products since they are 1) designed to work together and 2) finiky when paired with products from other lines.

Lynnery - Hair Type: 4a I'm a 4a-3c mix. I am returning this poo because it left my hair feeling too rough for my liking. I love the rest of the Kinky-Curly line. The conditioner replenished what the poo stripped away. My hair was clean but stripped.

cayisha_azul - Hair Type: 4b I have 4b/spongy hair. This is a clarifying shampoo so it strips my hair and leaves it rough, dry, and tangled. However, the Kinky Curly Knot Today Conditioner replaces what was lost. The ingredients are great so I will continue to by this shampoo as a clarifier. Kinky Curly needs to come out with a moisturizing shampoo.

CurlySuzy - Hair Type: 2b Good light cleansing shampoo. Not the most moisturizing, but nice. Loved the smell.

skeddy - Hair Type: 3a Hurrah for finding this shampoo! It's definitely a keeper! It has a good sudsy-feeling lather, and leaves my hair soft when it rinses out. And its scent reminds me of orange Lifesavers :)

CoilyDelta27 - Hair Type: 4a I absolutely LOVE this stuff! It cleanses my hair without leaving it stripped and it smells wonderful! I pray that they keep making this, because it's my favorite non-sulfate shampoo!!!

Tkellie - Hair Type: 4a I think this is one of the best curl cleanser. My hair was not dry and my hair fells extra clean after washing. I never tried the knot today as a conditioner when washing. I just do the kt as the leave in conditioner for the kccc. But this dynamic tri together is great I will try to keep this line of products as long as they keep working in my hair or I find something even better.

toysimm - Hair Type: 3b I have 3a/3b hair. This is a great shampoo. I used it for the first time today and it removed all of the buildup. It left my hair squeaky clean, soft and very manageable. I love it as well as the Knot Today and Curling Custard. This is a great line of products!!!!!

itsmelee337 - Hair Type: 4a After the first use my hair felt great. Finally a natural shampoo that doesn't strip my hair, matte, tangle, and harden my hair. I love the smell which is not very strong but i like it anyway!! Actually worth the money!

I LOVE this shampoo! This has become my HG for the days I need to shampoo my hair. I love how well it lathers for a sulfate-free poo, as well as how clean it rinses out, yet my hair never feels stripped and dry. Highly recommended!!

redcelticcurls - Hair Type: 3b I hadn't tried a shampoo in ages, but I like this product line and thought I'd try it out since one never knows when a build-up emergency will happen requiring a shampoo.
I liked this product. It was pretty gentle, although weird to feel some lather! It smelled like an orange creamsicle. My hair did feel different, but I wouldn't call it dried out or stripped. Conditioning afterwards left me feeling fine.
I will keep this product on hand and maybe use it once a month just to give me a clean slate. it is gentle enough so that it won't hurt.

Product - Hair Type: 3a I haven't tried the Knot Today Conditioner but I love the shampoo.I have very dry hair and wanted a sulfate free shampoo to use every day. I don't like shampooing every few days since my hair is thin and extremely frizzy and for some reason it gets really frizzy if I just use conditioner. Anyway, this shampoo smells wonderful, a little goes a long, long way and it makes my hair unbelievably soft and moisturized. I am Caucasian but my hair is between 3a and 3b, blonde and fine. This shampoo is well worth the money. When I run out of my other conditioner I might try the Kinky Curly conditioner. I am so grateful that I found this website. I don't even walk down the shampoo and conditioner row in the stores anymore.
