I usually don't pay to much attention to my conditioner as I usually just want something that will help detangle my hair after I wash it and leave it feeling pretty smooth. I've found most conditioners do this and so expected this one to do the same. What I really like about this is that it is silicone free which I guess does help my hair not feel heavy and clunky. I really love the smell and it's a nice texture so can't really complain. I'm not saying it's amazing and I couldn't live without it though which is why it's only getting 4 stars. I think what would make it amazing if it was different to other conditioners I've used and I guess if you have really really dry ends then this would be amazing but I've found that other conditioners do a pretty decent job at helping my ends feel healthy.

Tips: Buy it if you're getting the shampoo just to see how they work for you but overall it's pretty similar to other conditioners just that it is silicone free which helps your hair feel less heavy
This is the 3rd product in the Clay range, which consists of 4 products. The conditioner is packaged in beautiful mint green with darker green accent inverted 250ml bottle (it stands on its lid).
I never use conditioner, ever, because it makes my hair look stringy and greasy even if I only use it on the very ends.. But after using the mask and shampoo, I felt I had to condition to make my hair feel soft once more.
The conditioner truly is lightweight and doesn't leave my hair looking or feeling greasy. Just keep it away from the roots and scalp! It smells wonderful and leaves my hair feeling silky soft.
Tips: Use the entire range for best results
As with the shampoo it smells really nice. The bottle is a little bigger than the shampoo which I like as I tend to use more conditioner than shampoo. As per instructions I didn't apply to roots of my hair. Left in for a couple of minutes then rinsed out thoroughly. Left my hair feeling soft. I did find that it didn't minimize the knots like other conditioners seem to do. However, my hair feels soft and clean and doesn't look oily.
Tips: Brush hair before washing to minimize knots.
Again the packaging is a nice colour, but pretty standard. The scent for this one is really strong, not unpleasant just strong.
I always have trouble with dry ends and oily roots. The promises of this range were so appealing. I'm glad it delivered pretty well.
I needed less conditioner than normal, as you focus more on the ends and not the roots. I thought the shampoo might leave the roots too dry and that squeaky type feeling - but they felt fine. My whole hair felt light and soft after this using all the products (minus the dry shampoo) and two of my friends mentioned how healthy my hair looks! That's proof enough for me. The scent lingers in your hair, but it isn't as strong as I thought it might be - I don't do well with strong smells, I get headaches. But this didn't bring on a headache at all.
Tips: Start with a little less than normal as you aren't focusing on your whole head quite the same.
I'd read a few reviews about this product and although i don't have very oily hair, i thought that my hair was prone to be quite itchy on the second day/day of needing a wash so I bought this and tried it out and thought that it was quite good and did what it said it would.
The smell that I'd read that was 'overpowering' and chemical smelling, i didn't find to be that strong or chemical smelling. I found that the smell was quite subtle and you don't really pick up unless you were smelling it for ages.
But anyways. I thought it was a good conditioner and although didn't provide me with immediate silky soft hair, after blowdrying, it was manageable and very nice and the smell i quite liked too. I no longer had itchy scalp/hair on the second day after washing so I think it wasn't as oily as it usually got. I also used this for a week so it wasn't just the one-off use.
This is a great product to use in conjunction with the Elvive Extraordinary Clay Shampoo as they compliment each other very well. After using the Clay Mask then the shampoo, I felt the conditioner was as great as these other products in the range. The scent was pleasant and not too over powering, glided on very easily onto the ends of my hair. I used a hair clip to pin it up as I normally would to leave it in for a few minutes. When I washed it off, my ends felt very moisturised and silky again without the heaviness. It's great that this product doesn't contain any silicon as this weighs down my hair quite a lot making my roots oilier. In my opinion, this is truly a great product to use and fits perfectly within the range.
Yes! This is a new must have! I love it. It smells amazing and I LOVE that it is specifically formulated for oily hair.
It does what it says it does, but you do need to read the bottle. It states you should focus on the ends and middle lengths of your hair. I gave a quick swipe over the roots and really went to down with the mids and ends.
It's conditioning without weighing down my hair, and left it super silky and smooth, without the grease that I was used to.
Tips: Read the bottle before applying.
like my shampoo i had a number 1 conditioner but this is now my number 1 now this is so good, its not a heavy conditioner but it does wonders its white with a thin but conditioner feel consistency once you apply you feel the magic straight away. My hair was soft instantly, it smells yummy but it also smells like clay but i dont mind. It also gives your scalp a cooling but warming sensation sorta like mint would it feels so nice you get all relaxed, anyways you leave this on for 5 mins or as long you you want ild say but this is the best i then washed it out and was just so suprised my hair was soft super easy to run my brush and fingers through ive never really had a product that could do that to my blonde hair at that straight away so this is a SUPER MUST BUY ON MY LIST.
I got all four items from the line to trial and out of them I like this conditioner the most.
Its smell is similar to the shampoo, and the fragrance is perfect for a hair care line. It's not muddy as you might expect with the clay theme, but a nice unobtrusive fragrance. This really does what it claimed, and met all my expectations. Only a small amount was needed, and after rinsing it off my hair and scalp felt moisturised and soft without the slippery conditioner feel. My hair was light when dry, and looked nice and shiny in the light.
I always have to be careful with conditioners because if I use too much sometimes they make my scalp feel heavy and 'clogged up'. But this was perfect. It conditioned my hair just as I wanted without weighing it down. And together with the other products, I can last about three days depending on my activity without having to wash my hair again.
I currently have short hair so tangles aren't that much of a problem, but using this conditioner I can literally run my fingers through my hair in the morning and be ready to go.
Was super excited to try out the L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Clay range as I have oily roots + dry ends and the fact that it has 'clay' in the name intrigued me. I like the packaging and it's easy to use. I applied only to the ends of my hair as I always do and found that my hair felt so soft and moisturized. I really liked this conditioner as it contains no silicone's and left my hair feeling fresher for longer without weighing it down. I usually wash my hair every second day but found that I can go 3 days now.
