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.

Clean Beauty Anti-Frizz Shampoo

Many reviewers with wavy or curly hair say it noticeably reduces frizz and leaves hair softer and more defined.

A recurring complaint is that the formula is thin and watery, running out of the palm and hard to dispense.

Several reviewers report the opposite of the anti-frizz claim, saying their hair became frizzier or greasier with continued use.

Clean Beauty Everyday Shampoo

Many reviewers describe it as a gentle sulfate-free daily shampoo that cleanses without stripping or irritating a sensitive scalp.

A recurring complaint is a thin, runny texture that does not lather well and needs extra product to feel clean.

Reviewers with fine or thin hair report it can feel heavy or leave hair looking flat and greasy sooner than expected.

Price check

Cost per ounce, in context

Cost per ounce against every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in. Value labels are computed from that percentile and from how many products that do the same job cost less; they are comparisons, not judgements about a brand.

$0.69/oz vs $3.06/oz — Paul Mitchell Clean Beauty Anti-Frizz Shampoo costs about 4.4× more per ounce than Paul Mitchell Clean Beauty Everyday Shampoo.

$0.00/oz median $1.48/oz $17.29/oz $3.06/oz Clean Beauty Anti-Frizz Sh $0.69/oz Clean Beauty Everyday Sham

Every mark sits on one distribution because these are compared against the same set: 817 shampoos with a computable unit price.

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.
  • 9 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.
