The bottom line

The bottom line depends on your hair

Which of these two suits you is a question about your hair, not about them. The consultation answers it — and tells you what your routine needs around it.

What owners say

What people report

Recurring themes our researchers wrote in their own words from sourced reviews. We do not store or scrape star ratings, and we never balance one product’s themes against another’s by inventing them.

Briogeo Farewell Frizz Smoothing Shampoo draws complaints about how it cleanses.

Curl Charisma™ Rice Amino + Avocado Hydrating Shampoo

A reviewer managing a scalp condition with medication reports the shampoo does not flake or irritate and is compatible with a medicated-scalp routine.

reviewer using scalp medication, 4c hair

Reviewers with curly/coily hair, including 4c texture, report the shampoo leaves hair soft, more manageable to style, and reduces frizz.

curly/coily and 4c-texture reviewers

A reviewer with thick, curly hair was happy with the shampoo itself but complained about Briogeo's direct-order customer service (incomplete order fulfillment) — a service issue distinct from product quality.

thick/curly hair reviewer, direct brand.com order

Farewell Frizz Smoothing Shampoo

Completely changed hair for the better; transformed texture, improved softness and reduced greasiness

Shampoo is quite thin, takes several applications to lather, does not leave a "clean" feeling like some others

Watery consistency, much of it ran off hand before use

How this page was made

  • This page is assembled from the same researched records the individual product pages render: identity, each ingredient list as printed, each brand's own claims, dated price observations, and review themes written in our researchers' own words. Nothing on it is written per comparison.
  • We do not rank these against each other. Which of them suits you depends on your hair, and that is what the consultation works out.
  • The formula similarity percentage is a stored, precomputed number: position-weighted overlap of the two ingredient lists blended with agreement on the attributes we derive. It measures how alike two formulas are, not how well either works.
  • The value band is a fixed label over two stored numbers: this product’s cost per ounce as a percentile of every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in, and how many products we score as doing the same job cost at least a quarter less per ounce.
  • The "Is this right for you?" panel reads only your own consultation answers, and it applies exactly the filters our recommendation engine applies. It is computed when you load the page and is never stored on it.
  • 10 sources were consulted across the products on this page.
  • Ingredient order tells you relative amount only above roughly 1%. Prices are observations on the dates shown and change without notice. We do not sell these products and take no placement fees.
  • This is cosmetic information, not medical advice, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a health condition.
