Birchbox Breakdown

We’re hesitant to call this luxurious cleansing oil a shampoo—its powers go far beyond cleansing. Perfect for all hair types and textures, the oil-to-foam formula binds with the grease and product buildup on your scalp before gently whisking them away. At the same time, it respects your hair’s natural oils, so your strands never feel dry or stripped. Finally, it adds bounce and body to your locks while leaving behind a calming yuzu citrus scent. All in all, it’s a true superhero product.

How it Works

Made with purifying deep-sea volcanic extracts, Shu Uemura’s cleansing oil lathers up into a light foam to transform tired locks into a luscious mane. It gets rid of any and all signs of oily debris while softening hair. Plus, the formula is made without heavy silicones, so it won’t weigh hair down.

How to Use

Dispense a single pump of oil into your palms, and add a splash of water to transform it into a light, fragrant foam. Massage into your scalp, and rinse away.

Perfect Shampoo

I don't know if I'll get it again but it smells yummy. I expected it honestly to be more oily than it is, but its really not. I have baby fine hair and really anything that is too rich tends to weigh my hair down, this product however has not been a problem at all. Again it smells gorgeous and I love using it.

Not worth the money!

When I first read about this product and its reviews I was so excited to try! For the price I expected it to be a miracle in a bottle, but alas it was not. The smell is fantastic but this cleanser has salicylic acid in it and gave me dandruff like I have never seen. I am used to using this ingredient on my acne, not my hair! Not happy at all. If you have sensitive skin- beware of this product.

Amazing...except for the cap! Grrrr!

Ok, what's inside is impressive! I usually don't trust make up companies to make great hair care products. But, this shampoo was impressive!!! The last time I felt so impressed with a hair product was when I discovered Salon Selectives at age 8. Ha! Anyways, I give it 4 stars...because....the cap didn't untwist!!! Grrr!!! I'm keeping, I will reorder it....but I wish the cap was better!

Amazing cleansing shampoo

OMG I love this shampoo. It does carry a hefty price tag but it cleanses your hair like no other shampoo. It has a soft sweet smell which I love! I wish I could use it every day but I restrain myself to just 1-2 times a week. That even may be too much but it leaves my so hair bright, shiny and smooth.

LOVE. Just love.

I love this shampoo. I cannot say enough about it. Basically, my hair felt like magic after one use. I don't understand it, but this oil cleans and replenishes your hair with amazing moisture. The HG of shampoos for me.

Perfectly Clean and Conditioned

Finally, the perfect amount of clean without the drying damage! It leaves my hair clean and bouncy without having to use in-shower conditioner afterwards. Absolutely the best cleansing shampoo I've tried!

Best. Shampoo. Ever.

It took me a while to use the Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil Shampoo, but once I did, I knew I HAD to have the full size product. I have very thick, color treated hair that is recovering from chemical damage. The damage is almost all grown out, but this leaves me with dry, brittle ends and oily roots. This shampoo does a fantastic job of removing the product and excess oil while still leaving enough moisture to keep my hair looking soft and healthy. The Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil Shampoo smells amazing as well! Its hefty price tag is a little hard to take, but definitely worth it.

Lightweight

It doesn't feel oil based, leaves hair airy and lightly scented (not like a salon, but perfumey in a very very good way). I would highly recommend this product. I love this product and I must say I am a happy convert to shu umera's products. It doesn't leave my hair feeling dry and stringy. Or that feeling of not having used conditioner where your hair gets all tangley. It just feels natural. It's fine if you use conditioner too, but sometimes I don't. I liked the shampoo either way since it doesn't leave my hair rough. I have fine, colored asian hair.

Great Smell

I love the soft flowery scent of this product, just wish it would last longer than it does. It does a great job at not stripping too much out of under nourished hair!

Great - worth the money.

I LOVE this shampoo. You only have to use a tiny bit and it gives great lather (I have medium-fine hair a little longer than shoulder length). The smell is great and it makes my hair feel really soft and clean, without being stripped. I love this - just don't buy the conditioner...
