Well, I've not used a purple conditioner before although I have heard them mentioned quite frequently lately, my Mum is even using one so I was quite intrigued. I have blonde highlights and my natural hair colour has quite a lot of brassiness to it as well so I think this is the product I’ve been needing.
Before I even got started my 9 year old daughter opened the lid to have a smell and decided it smelt lovely, just like the conditioner from the hairdressers. I would have to agree with her on that one.
The conditioner is a much more toned down colour purple than the shampoo, almost a mauve. I have heard that purple products can be quite drying, but this had the completely opposite effect. My hair was actually a lot softer than after using my normal shampoo/conditioner. I let my hair dry naturally after using the purple shampoo/conditioner as it was Sunday. Normally there is no way I could leave the house with naturally dried hair but my hair actually looked presentable - that’s how soft it had dried.
I didn’t expect to see much of a difference after one use but I think I could actually notice the difference. It will be interesting to see how it works after many more uses. I didn’t realise at first that it is a weekly treatment and not an every day type of conditioner - luckily I read the instructions, as I don’t always read them.
I’m quite impressed at the results from a supermarket conditioner and would definitely recommend this to my friends (and my Mum).
I have blonde hair, which is curly and very thick. I used this conditioner 3 times in a week. I feel like a little goes a long way and the conditioner was thick and a great consistancy. I also found that this made it harder to rinse out and I had to check in the mirror that it was all out before I knew for sure. This conditioner is super super hydrating! I found even straight after the first use my hair was softer and even looked shiner. After day one, I was getting compliments saying, wow your hair looks so soft and lighter. I have noticed that my hair looked blonder and brighter. My hair is less frizzy and more moisturised. I loved the fragrance, not too over powering. The smell also lingered in my hair after a day or so, which I loved! I would 100% use again, buy again and recommend to friends! My hair looks healthier and fresher! I love the colour of the bottles too!
Tips: Make sure to wash it out thoroughly. I got out of the shower and had purple on my face on my head. Also, wear gloves! Nails can turn grey! I brush my hair with conditioner and did with this one, as normally I cant brush my hair when its dry due to the curls and thickeness. This conditioner was perfect to brush through with, which made my hair even softer!
