Darn good conditioner

After hearing amazing things about this conditioner on the forum then reading BR member Shazatron's review on this conditioner I had to try it. And besides I'm still on my "try all the Haircare products" bender. I also couldn't wait to get my mitts on this since it contains no nasties and has Argan oil in it I LOVE Argan oil

The bottle is a gorgeous pink cylinder shaped bottle with a push down lid up the top. After using this several times I'm finding it more and more difficult to get the conditioner out so have resorted to unscrewing the lid and pouring some out that way. I think it is mainly because the plastic is so hard it's hard to squeeze.

This has an amazing scent it's a clean slight floral scent. I can't quite place the scent it is a bit different but I love it. The consistency of the conditioner is on the thicker side which i love, a conditioner should be thick and rich.

I only use roughly 2 tablespoons for my long dry mop. It absorbs easily into my hair and it's easy to run through my hair. I let it soak in for a few minutes before rinsing it out.

As I'm rinsing it out I can feel my hair already feels super soft and no tangles. I let my hair air dry and notice it feels soft and manageable and I don't need to use as much Argan oil as I normally use. It feels hydrated and it actually looks healthy even though in all honestly it's a fried mess. I would repurchase this again definitely it's such a good conditioner and the scent lingers in your hair the day after I have washed it which is another bonus for me.

Lovely thick conditioner

Lovely thick conditioner, which I love, and it quickly detangled my hair and left it feeling soft and strong. The only issue I had with it was the fragrance - at first I liked it, then I realised it smelt soapy and a bit sickly. And the fragrance does linger! Such a shame as I love a well-fragranced product but unfortunately this one just clashed with my senses. A good upper range supermarket product though, and nice and thick with lots of substance.

Tips: Store upside down - it's thick!

Fine hair favourite

I do like this conditioner a lot despite lid of the container being very annoying! You have to bang the container to move the product out of it. However I see the new version has a softer bottle and should be much better Yay! So I can give it a thumbs up all round as a great conditioner for my (older and grey) fine hair. I generally wash my hair every other day and Day 2 hair is still soft an easy to put up. Best to leave the product in for a while before rinsing.

Tips: Look for the new, more squeezy bottle!

Fantastic NZ cruelty free conditioner

I have to preface this review by saying I love the Essano range of products and really enjoy using basically everything they already have out. When I heard they were releasing a range of shampoos and conditioners I could not have been happier. I have been struggling with my hair lately as it had been very dry and frizzy. I went out on a quest to get it healthy and looking good and over the past six months have tried out quite a range of different shampoos and conditioners to find my holy grail. I was planning on buying this as soon as it came out but as it happened I won come from Essano on Instagram, it was meant to be you could say. They sent me the Argan Oil variety and I immediately started using it. This conditioner has done my hair really well. I have been using it now for a couple of months and I have not been having to do deep conditioning treatments as often as I was before. This conditioner is really moisturising for my hair and it has reduced the frizziness heaps. The formula is the consistency you would expect from a conditioner and it smells great. The scent sticks around for a while after and I like it. The packaging is really nice and I like the cylinder bottles it comes in. They stand nicely in the shower and would be good to travel with. I really like this conditioner and it has done my hair a world of good. I think I have found my holy grail for my hair and I will not be changing to anything else any time soon. Thanks Essano for fulfilling my high expectations once again. This product is perfect for my hair, is cruelty free, is NZ based, is reasonable and easily available. It doesn't get any better than that!

Nicely scented conditioner

This is a really thick conditioner, the thickness reminds me of some deep conditioning treatments, and when squeezing out it this the conditioner held the form of the lines on it. Apply to hair, wait a few minutes and wash out. It has a nice scent to it and I am quite happy with it.

What I wasn't expecting was how slippery it made my shower afterwards, the first time I used a lot and thought this was the reason but no when I used less the next time the same thing happened. It does however make your hair nice and soft, so soft that the next time I have skipped the conditioner the next shower and just used the shampoo only. It does seem to be quite easy to run a comb or wide bristled brush through it. Price is a bit more than my usual Sunsilk but I am thinking about getting this as a treatment option rather than everyday use.

Tips: If you can store the bottles on their lids so that product comes out easier than shaking the bottle.

Really good conditioner

I used to love this conditioner, I went through a few bottles, but I like changing my hair care often and now use more high end products as well. This conditioner is so creamy, I really love the consistency, applied well on my hair and smooths it out great. I usually use some conditioner on my scalp as well, so it wouldn’t dry out, especially in the winter time, works great to hydrate my scalp as well. The scent is nice, but I think it could be a bit better, I like nice smelling hair products and it’s not like my dead hair would be sensitive to some perfume in my conditioner!? :) Made my hair nice and smooth, I used to have a lot less frizz, but it still wasn’t enough for my dry, coarse and frizzy hair, so I used to use the argan hair oil from essano, I’ve had the whole line and they complimented each other really well.

A great nourishing conditioner

I had heard great things about essano products so bought this when I’d run out of conditioner. I’m loving it! It’s thick and nourishing, it sinks right into the hair when applied and almost disappears so it feels like your hair is really drinking it in. My ends get so dry as I have really fine hair that is coloured and straightened regularly and this conditioner gives it back some shine and smoothness. For the price, and the convenience of being able to get it at the supermarket this is a bargain.

My only complaint is that the bottle makes it really difficult to actually get the conditioner out. That’s fairly annoying.

Essano ends dry ends

Essano intense hydration dry hair conditioner is like a deep moisturizing treatment, because of the argan oil and about 10 other beautiful moisturizing oils and natural ingredients. It also contains B5 protein to strengthen hair. It left my hair with weightless bounce and shine. It has a beautiful tropical smell of coconut and ylangylang with a touch of hibiscus. I like the signature pink and black bottle it looks classy. The only thing I did find it a bit difficult to shake the conditioner out, as it has a lift up lid. I bought it on special I don't think I'd pay full price as it's only a 300ml bottle. But it's worth it for the results and natural ingredients. I think it's just as good as most salon conditioners

Tips: You can leave it on longer to give more intense moisture and shine

We have a winner!

I am very, very fussy when it comes to new conditioners. In my short unicorn maned life I have only come across one that I can use daily, one that doesn't leave my hair feeling gross and oily. However, the day has come where I've found another!

The bottle is a delightful pink, with a lid that opens when you push down on the other end, like a weird kind of see-saw. My first gripe is that I could tell immediately on the first use that this is a product that needs to be stored on its head, otherwise you'll be standing there shaking the bottle.

The product is white creamy pile of delicious that smells sooo awesome. It applies really well, and I didn't really need as much as I thought I did, maybe the same size as an old 50c coin! It also rinses really well and it leaves my hair feeling so lovely and happily, not an oil slick after one wash. I'm on day 4 of using this conditioner, and my hair still feels as good as it did 4 days ago, 2 days after a shampoo.

The bottle is huge, but I didn't realize it was $15!!! Good lord. In that case, me using it daily isn't quite as economical as I thought. Depending on how long this lasts me I would repurchase this as my daily conditioner (a sale would be good, too). So yes, it works, I like it, but the price is off putting!

Hydrating conditioner

My hair gets dry because I straighten my hair weekly. I saw this out on my weekly shop and decided to buy it along with the shampoo. Packaging is pink and brightly coloured easy to notice amongst my other products. Consistency of this conditioner is smooth creamy smells like a floral bouquet . After use my hair feels fresh and clean . My hair did feel hydrated after use. Overall I would use it again.
