I am using Bare Anatomy Ultra Smoothing Shampoo since 6 months and I think it’s time to introduce this nice shampoo to you all. I had received the shampoo in one the Nykaa PR boxes and I am highly impressed with its efficacy in my wavy, fine hair. Let’s check the review without wasting much time.

My experience with Bare Anatomy Ultra Smoothing Shampoo
My hair is frizzy, fine and not too dense and wavy. It can easily retains a shape in which I tie them for a long time. I always use soft, lukewarm water for hair washing and haven’t used much heat on my hair. I tend to use this shampoo once in a while if my hair is very frizzy dry or I have to attend any function or head out.
The shampoo lathers quite well and cleanses the scalp and hair very nicely. The greasiness of the scalp goes away. I apply kalonji oil to hair very sparingly as I suffer from dandruff very easily. So I won’t be able to tell if it completely removes the oil in scalp and hair or not. The shampoo can be easily washed off and it doesn’t feel as if any residue is left behind.
As soon as the shampoo is put on wet hair, I feel the smoothing effect as I can easily run my fingers through my hair. After using this shampoo my hair feels soft to touch and tangle free. Whenever I use this shampoo, I can’t help but touch my hair again and again. It not only softens the hair but also give some volume to it. If you apply any styling gel, the hair easily retains the shape. I use a simple aloe gel to just make my baby hair not stand up, and it works like a charm.
Please remember this shampoo just softens the hair and doesn’t straighten then or make them silky, shiny as you see in those TV ads. In short, your hair will behave in a better way than other times. Moreover I feel this shampoo is very good if you are going to do some hair styles such as fishtail braid or some bun hair style.
The amount of shampoo you use is directly proportional to the amount of smoothing effect it gives. Whenever I use extra quantity of shampoo I felt extra softness, less tangling but weighed down hair causing it to lose on the volume. If you ever decide to try out this shampoo remember to work out the quantity of shampoo for according to your texture with a little bit of trial and error.
Moreover, don’t forget to use a clarifying shampoo in between using any shampoo to give a break from build-up.
Summing Up
It’s a good, budget friendly, sulphate free smoothing shampoo one can use. The smoothing effect depends on the quantity used so it will suit all hair types. It not only gives a smoothing effect but also cleanses the scalp while giving a little volume boost to flat or fine hair. If you are someone who isn’t much into pre shampoo conditioning then you can use this shampoo and later on use a leave in serum to keep the hair soft and smooth for 3-4 days. You can use a clarifying shampoo in between in you are planning on using any shampoo for a longer period of time. I wish this shampoo was also available in small quantity such as 50ml or 100ml for traveling purpose. I am pretty sure to repurchase this shampoo again.
