essano Blonde Conditioner

I have naturally dark brunette hair and i have balayage blonde, so my ends are very light blonde. When freshly done my ends are very cool toned, but like a lot of faux blondes, they often go brassy, so I am always on the look out for the perfect toner.

One thing I noticed the bottle it doesn't tell you how often you can use the conditioner - usually with toners they specify if they can be used every wash, or weekly etc because of how harsh the ingredients may be on your hair. However Essano are known for using natural ingredients. The purple shampoo is plant based, 100% free from parabens, PEGs and sulphates. Even the bottle is made from 100% recycled material.

I have also used the shampoo in this set which is a very effective toner. I'm not sure how much toning the conditioner does on it's own, it has a purple colour to the product itself, but it doesn't leave any colour on my skin after I apply (which the shampoo does). However, after using both products there is definitely less brassiness and left me with very clean and cool toned hair.

I gave 4 out of 5 for 'would you use it again' and the only reason I marked this down is because of my personal hair type. I usually wash my hair twice a week. The shampoo says it can help coloured, dry, dull, damaged, frizzy, flat, oily and normal hair. However I have found that my hair gets quite oily after a couple of days, meaning I have to wash 3 times a week to avoid looking greasy. The conditioner says it used violet leaf extract to 'smooth and soften dry, damaged hair' so I wonder if this is too intense for my hair which doesn't get dry.

I’ve had highlighted hair for many years so I am a frequent user of purple tone-correcting products. I recently went to a lighter shade of blonde so I was very excited to trail this new product! The plus points for me is that this conditioner is cruelty free, plant based, 100% free from parabens and sulphates and the bottle is made from 100% recycled materials, making it a very eco-friendly product. The bottle size is a generous 300ml and has a pop-open top so it is easy to use and dispense the product. This conditioner is recommended for use on coloured, dry, dull, damaged, frizzy, flat, oily and normal hair so it covers pretty much all hair types. My hair is particularly dry and frizzy due to the highlights so im always looking for conditioners that really soften, nourish and moisturize my hair. The product label doesn’t mention how often to use the product so I used it twice a week as per how often I use my other purple shampoos and conditioners. The product has a faint aroma, a bit like a plant/flowery smell. Not a very strong smell but certainly not unpleasant. The product is a pale purple colour and has a creamy, almost fluffy consistency. I used a normal amount, applied into my palm and applied it to my wet, shoulder length hair. It covered my hair well and became nice and creamy as I massaged it in, giving a good coverage. As per the instructions I left it to work for 1-2 minutes. Once washed off, my hair felt well moisturized and smelt nice. Once I dried my hair, it felt nice and soft and I do think there was an improvement in the tone correction with less brassiness. I used this conditioner after using the same branded purple shampoo so it’s difficult to tell which of the two products did most of the colour correcting. Im sure they work well together in complementing each other’s performance. Comparing it to my other purple conditioners it does seem to work better than most and it left my hair feeling lovely and soft which is a big bonus. Overall, I would use this product again, it’s important to me that products are cruelty free and eco-friendly and I was happy with its results.

I raved on about the story of my bleached blonde hair in my shampoo review so won't repeat it here other than to say the condition of my hair is a extremely damaged and porous with a LOT of daily breakage. Again, the conditioner in this range smells amazing. It is lightly pigmented, more a lilac colour which is great after the intensity of the shampoo. The product goes on well and I didn't hold back on my mid lengths and ends. I found it easy to comb through and the comb was not full of hair which has become my norm, very pleased about that! My hair was soft on drying, I can't really comment on the smoothing because my hair is never smooth on drying these days; it requires a lot of product and light straightening to get it half way decent. In saying this it was just as smooth as the in salon products I have recently been using. I would recommend this conditioner to others and will continue to use it.

Just like the shampoo this product is great for the price, and also great to find at the supermarket where the choice is limited for blonde shampoos. I find this product to be very moisturising and helps make the shampoo not seem too harsh on the hair. I used this a good few times, after my hair was freshly dyed and was showing brassy tones. This helped well. I’ll buy this again when I’m finished as my normal blonde shampoo is over $20 just for the shampoo

I use this Essano conditioner every time l wash my hair, l use the purple Essano shampoo on just the top part of my hair and l only put it mainly on lower half of my hair ,as l find if l condition the top part of my hair it gets that oily look, so usually use it on targeted areas , that l know have more blonde and grey areas. It is not drying like some other purple shampoo brands l have tried. It leaves my hair soft and manageable, and definitely tones down any harsh blonde areas l have. I have

This product has good purple strength that works well to banish the dreaded yellow tones in blond hair. As a natural blond I do struggle with dryness, so I am careful to condition throughly. I like this product and it does everything it should.

I really enjoyed using this product. I used the Conditioner after using the Essano Blonde Tone-Correcting Purple Shampoo for best results. The packaging is clean and clear with a easy to read text. A small amount of conditioner went a long way. I have below shoulder length hair and needed about a walnut size amount. Once washed out my hair felt soft and smooth. Definitely from using both the Essano Blonde Tone-Correcting Purple Shampoo and Conditioner I have noticed that my highlighted hair is less brassy and more golden looking. I will continue to use these 2 products to help maintain my colour.

Definitely a win for me! Found it to be nice and nourishing on my hair, always came out soft and gentle after each use.

The colour of the conditioner itself is a very pale purple so I'd assume that most of the colour correction would come from the shampoo?- which I havent got. However i use this with a normal shampoo and find that even this fades my brassy tones quite nicely!

I definitely wish that it came with a pump like the shampoo seems to, but it's easy enough to use as it is. I like that on the bottle is has in huge writing conditioner so there's less of a chance to confuse the 2!
