How to use

Mighty Micellar Shampoo:

Apply directly to the scalp and roots on wet hair. Gently massage with your fingertips—especially around buildup-prone areas. Don’t expect heavy suds—this low-lather formula does the work quietly but effectively. Rinse thoroughly. Follow with a Striking + Strong Cool Down Conditioner to rehydrate and define. Use monthly or anytime your scalp and strands need a true refresh.

Step It Up Moisturizing Shampoo:

Apply to wet hair and gently massage into the scalp using your fingertips. Focus on the roots to lift buildup, sweat, and excess oils. Rinse thoroughly. Follow with your favorite Striking + Strong conditioner to seal in moisture and enhance your curl pattern. Use weekly or as needed.

Cool Down Conditioner:

After shampooing, apply generously from mid-lengths to ends. Gently detangle with fingers or a wide-tooth comb. Leave in for 3–5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. For deeper hydration, let it sit longer or pair with a heat cap.

Love this shampoo and conditioner! I’m really active, have a sensitive scalp and because of my hair texture (3B) I only wash my hair every 3 days. So I was looking for a product line that would suit my needs. The shampoo made my hair feel really clean, but not “stripped”. The conditioner was equally amazing, and has great slip–which helped me detangle my hair in the shower. Afterwards my hair felt really clean, it was easy to comb through (which is always a struggle) and this really aided the rest of my haircare routine. I highly recommend this hair care line! I’ll defenitely be ordering again!

Hair that gets a workout!

My daughter is an athlete and still a girly gurl. Her hair was dry and breaking from sweat. Wish I had taken a before and after picture because after one shampoo and condition you wouldn’t have believed the difference. She was ready to place her next order after just one wash!

My forever fav

Not to exaggerate but Striking + Strong’s products made me love me curls more than before. I’m historically a product junkie but now I need fewer products now and I get way better results right out the show when I use them.

From dry and dusty to loose and curly!

My multicultural daughter and son have been using the starting line up. This summer with basketball and baseball schedules along with swimming, we are in LOVE with the shampoos. Having the option to use the micellar for sweaty heads with more frequency without drying works WONDERS! The conditioner is AMAZING! My daughter was breaking all her hair off because it was dry…she now is actually excited to wash her hair and the fact that the comb can get through her hair without breaking and how lovely her coils look fantastic.

This product changed the game for me!!!! I’m talking healthy curls hydrated curls and soft long lasting curls! About to re-up you should too!!!

This is a great combo! I recently moved from a very humid area to a relatively dry area, and am really enjoying working the shampoo and conditioner into my routiene as I adjust to a different environment. My scalp really likes the micellar shampoo – it feels super clean and my hair is not dried out when I use it. My hair mids and ends really benefit from using the cool down conditioner after a mask, to really lock in the moisture or the protein, whichever I’m using on that day. When I hop out of the shower, I smooth in some oil, and I’m good to go! I definitely recommend it.

My absolute fav shampoo/conditioner trio. My hair is so soft and moisturized
