It's hard to judge a shampoo and conditioner separately - as the outcome is a result of both. So that part I'll combine. As for the application - the conditioner, like the shampoo, had a delicious smell.It had a really sleek feel on, almost like a mask. I used quite a lot - and this might in fact contribute to my 'soft' issue. The result (of the two combined....) - the first thing I noticed was the softness. My hair usually feels somewhat dry after washing, and until it's straightened it is a bit unruly. I found with this it dried soft - to the point where straightening my hair was easier - but with the result of kinking if I tried to tie it up too soon. I'm guessing it comes down to how damaged your hair is - the moreso the better this product would be, and for me, I don't think my hair is damaged enough. The one up however I did find was that my hair stayed 'fresher' for longer, i.e. didn't get a greasy 'I need to wash my hair' feel as soon as with my usual. I didn't dislike the product - and will happily use out the rest of the bottle, but not sure I'd buy it again in comparison to the likes of Garnier repair range.

Tips: Use only if your hair is really damaged or you like a really soft feel!
I have been super abusive to my hair over the years and it has taken its toll in a bad way. My hair is usually very dry and breaks off at the ends leaving it looking in need of a cut all the time. It gets knotty and just awful to deal with so i usually just straighten it and tie it up. NOW I HAVE MY HAIR BACK!! This conditioner had breathed life back in to my hair. Its so soft and it doesn't tangle. The ends that were pretty much like straw are now lovely soft and look healthy. I enjoy the smell from this conditioner. Along with the shampoo, it lasts till the next time i wash my hair which i really love. I love this conditioner and it will now be the only one i use from now on. Thank you BR for giving me this review and my healthy hair <3
The scent of this product is amazing but the formula and the product its self is horrible for my hair type. all it did for me was make my hair look greasy!
Tips: only use if your hair is bleached or extremely dead.
FIRSTLY i have been waiting to put this in, i am AMAZED! the feel is like any other conditioner except when i applied i noticed it had an amazing smell and i never notice smells generally, my hair has dramatically stopped breaking and no longer looks split and icky on the ends (amazing) once i had washed out the best part for me I COULD STILL SMELL THAT YUMMY SMELL a little disjointed it seemed to vanish the couple times after first wash but im not put off because my hair is literally 100x better and i have tried soooo many
Tips: def focus on the mid length and ends leave for 5 and then just mulch through not much is needed at all
Loved it! Smelt great, easy to open, did what it said it would!.
This conditioner left my hair feeling wonderful, soft and nourished without over conditioning it. My hair also had more life/body .
After using it for a while, it has improved the overall condition of my hair and made it a lot more manageable,softer, shiner and really just better!
I used it in conjunction with the matching shampoo they definetly work well together.
Thanks L'oreal!
Tips: Use it together with the matching shampoo for great results!
With using after the shampoo my hair is totally easier to manage, healthier looking and feeling and most of my splits ends have disappeared that I had prior to using this. This product is the only one that I have used that 'calms' my hair and its amazing. Also ny hair is stronger and doesnt break when my children yank on my hair.
Tips: Leave in for at least 2mins prior to risining out.
I used this set before the colour protect and loved it . its my favorite so far and would use it again plan to as im going to recolor again and this works wanders after the chemical process then off to the color protect again
The conditioner was really disappointing as it was very runny and too thin a texture to do any good. The bottle is designed to be upside down so when you flip the lid to open it, the conditioner POURED out and was wasted.
It smelled of red apples but didn't smell as nice on the hair and the smell didn't linger for long on the hair. Maybe this was due to it being so thin and was all washed out when rinsed.
Also I needed to use a lot to make it feel like I had conditioner in it.
I don't think my hair felt any more restored, silky or shiny after using this product unlike other conditioners. And for this reason I would not buy it or recommend it to anyone.
Tips: Don't store it upside down or the product will end up down the drain when you open it.
The conditioner is better than the shampoo, but not by much.
The amount of conditioner I need after using the shampoo is ridiculous, the shampoo makes my hair so matted that I need so much conditioner just to have manageable hair.
My hair does have a nice shine to it afterwards and it seems to last longer before it gets greasy but this really isn't worth the hassle that the shampoo brings.
I love the smell of this conditioner The packaging is beautiful I have used this every day for the past week now and i love the smell of fresh clean hair It conditions my hair perfectly Its so easy to control Its so bouncy and clean Hair looks revitalised Shiny And i only needed to use a little on my hair Will totally buy again
