Paul Mitchell Super Smooth Shampoo for Frizzy Hair — 10.14 fl oz, Sulfate-Free & Squalane Smoothing

Paul Mitchell Super Smooth Shampoo is a daily sulfate-free cleanser formulated with plant-derived squalane to smooth frizz and make hair softer and easier to manage.

Designed for frizz-prone hair, this 10.14 fl. oz. salon-grade formula gently removes impurities while helping reduce flyaways and friction. The shampoo avoids harsh sulfates (no SLS, SLES, or ALS) and pairs best with the Super Smooth Conditioner for optimal smoothing results. A lush, fruity fragrance lifts each wash with apple, dewberry, white peach, and wild strawberry notes for a pleasant at-home salon experience.

How does this shampoo reduce frizz without sulfates?

The formula relies on plant-derived squalane to smooth the hair surface and improve slip between strands, reducing static and frizz. By omitting sulfates, the shampoo cleans without stripping natural oils that help maintain softness and manageability.

• Plant-derived squalane smooths cuticle and reduces friction
• Sulfate-free base preserves natural moisture balance
• Gentle surfactants remove dirt and buildup without over-drying

Will this work on coarse, curly, or color-treated hair?

Yes — the gentle, moisturizing approach suits a range of frizz-prone textures, including coarse and curly hair. Because it’s free of SLS, SLES, and ALS, it’s less likely to strip color, but pairing with a color-safe conditioner is recommended for best color retention.

• Safe for textured and curly hair needing extra slip
• Suitable for color-treated hair when used with compatible conditioners
• Daily formula supports frequent washing without drying effects

How should I use Paul Mitchell Super Smooth Shampoo for best results?

Use on wet hair, lathering gently from roots to ends, then rinse thoroughly. For maximum smoothing, follow with Paul Mitchell Super Smooth Conditioner; third-party testing showed up to 86% smoother hair when the duo is used together.

• Apply a quarter-sized amount to wet hair; adjust for length and thickness
• Work into a light lather, focusing on scalp through mid-lengths
• Rinse and follow with the matching conditioner for enhanced smoothness

What sensory and practical benefits can I expect?

The shampoo delivers a lightweight, non-greasy clean, leaving strands soft and more manageable. Its juicy, fruity scent provides a refreshing wash experience, and the practical 10.14 fl. oz. size is convenient for at-home use or travel.

• Softens hair for easier detangling and styling
• Pleasant apple and berry fragrance for an uplifting wash
• Salon-quality performance in a compact bottle

Who is this for: Paul Mitchell Super Smooth Shampoo is aimed at people with frizz-prone hair seeking a daily, sulfate-free cleanse that improves manageability and softness. It’s a good fit for those with textured, wavy, or straight hair that tangles or reacts to humidity, and for anyone who prefers gentler cleansing ingredients while maintaining salon-level results. Pairing with the matching conditioner yields the best smoothing outcome.
