Review

These conditioners are great value cowash conditioners for people looking for more natural products. These conditioners do not have cones or parabans and that is always good! The ingredients are excellent and more beneficial ingredients are high on the ingredient list, thus in higher concentrations. I do not cowash anymore, but when I was this stuff was fantastic. I would not use it as a deep conditioner though, it is not thick enough. I bought all three to be able to switch it up when I needed protein or moisture, depending on the ingredients.

The Verdict

I give it 4/5 stars. It is cheap (if you go to Marshalls), has great ingredients and is readily available. It is not 100% natural however due to some of the preservatives, and is not favorable for a deep conditioner.

  1. Thanks for the review and the ingredients listing :). I've only tried the keratin, and I like it a lot as a reconstructor followed up with a moisturizing DC.
