Most Helpful Positive Review Game Changer! Not Your Mother's has been my favorite brand for over two years now. I started with Curl Talk and loved the way my curls looked, smelled and felt. But then I discovered the 'Game Changer', the conditioner.
The Royal Honey & Kalahari Desert Melon made me love my coils more than I ever had with other products. There is a perfect amount of whip and thickness that glides onto the curls. I then decided to try out the other conditioners after being addicted to the Royal Honey. All the scents are beautiful. Fresh, clean, sweet and light. The Bamboo Activated Charcoal & Purple Moonstone is my favorite conditioner. The product feels more smooth and glides differently onto my coils. The scent of this one gets me all the compliments as I am out and about. For the past two years, I am stopped almost everyday and asked about my curly hair routine and products. I can't emphasize enough how much Not Your Mother's brings my curls to life on another level.
I use their conditioners as a leave in and it does all the wonders. After washing the hair, I use the Matcha Green Tea & Wild Apple Blossom mask time hydrate the hair for about 25 min. I then rinse it out with cold water and apply my Bamboo Activated Charcoal & Purple Moonstone into the hair. The trick is to section the hair and work in smaller portions. I apply 2-3 pumps into each section ensuring each little hair is covered in conditioner. I use my hands to rake the product in and then I squish my curls up towards the sky.
I let my hair air dry and then I am off to enjoy the day! My curls are shiny, hydrated, smells absolutely amazing and I feel super good about myself! Thanks to Not Your Mother's for an amazing brand. I am telling people about this product daily, in target, at my mothers hair salon, at the grocery store, on the plane... it's the best choice! Try it out!
Most Helpful Critical Review My hair is dangled I have stright hair but my scalp is oily and my ends are dry and I have been trying to make my hair better by using vegan ingredients. I have been doing this for the last 3 years but this product literally made my hair dangled and made my ends feel like wax like it reversed all my work .The shampoo and conditioner that's in the yellow bottles are SOO much better then this .I wouldn't recommend the conditioner but if you have oily scalp like I do use the shampoo.

This does completely the opposite of clarify product build up from my hair. My hair looks pretty crazy and it tangles so bad after I use this. It's gunky and leaves behind so much residue. Also the third ingredient is alcohol so idk about the all natural claims.

i love it 5
GreenEyedGirl from Raleigh, NC
not heavily fragranced, moisturizing enough that allows me to comb my hair and not tangle. I have 2b/c curly hair and use this to prevent product buildup
Great conditioner 5
Vickie G from NJ
Smells amazing, super hydrating & amazing slip
In love 5
Bughuul from Virginia Beach
I recently got this in hair mask form and was so in love with it that I bought the shampoo and conditioner. I LOVE THE SCENT!! It smells so good I wanna smell like this all the time. The product is thick and kinda like a deep conditioner. It makes my curls feel so hydrated.
Left hair coated & dry 1
K from NYC
I just started using this and then went to get my hair cut. My stylist asked what I had been using because she noted my hair felt dry but like it also had buildup on it. I clarified my hair but then after one use of this again, the nasty, coated feeling is back. I didn't use much product, either. Will probably just throw away the rest because my normally nice hair looks and feels bad.

Oh, it's thick thick. 5
Max from PA
This might as well be deep conditioner. Like a knife through butter, I am able to run fingers through my hair which I was never able to do before. (Instead of opening the bottle, I hold it down with one hand and pump with the other).
Absolutely amazing 5
Brii from California
I lov amae this shampoo and conditioner! It smells amazing and leaves my hair so soft and shiny!
Great 5
Yiss from Chicago
Love this! My hair gets tangled easily(curly 2c type) and this untangles it fast only a few pumps needed! Smells great. Makes my hair feel moisturized afterwards.
Dried out my hair 1
Reese from HI
I bought this with the shampoo to clarify my hair with. It stripped everything out of my hair, including the moisture. My loose 2c waves ended up as a huge poof of frizz with no definition, even after adding a leave-in conditioner, pure argan oil, and stying product. For my next wash I switched back to my usual shampoo and conditioner and my curl definition and pattern came back, so itʻs definitely this set thatʻs the problem!
perfect amount of moisture and slip 5
k from Madison wi
This conditioner is surprisingly moisturizing, I would say this is more moisturizing than the blue and yellow NYMN and slightly less than the green and pink. The slip is great I love this for detangling. I have 3c low porosity dense thick curls and I use this to condition and detangle before shampoo
Great for co-washing curly hair 5
Pomfrey runner from Cleveland, OH
I have curly hair and follow the Curly Girl method. This conditioner is great for co-washing! It is slippery enough to detangle and light enough to rinse out well. Only down side is the bottle and pump design. The pump doesn't reach all the way to the bottom. So I end up taking the pump off near the end and pouring out the top. It's also super thick. So I water it down and it's just as effective that way.
I'll continue 2 purchase when you make a dang squeeze bottle 4
AC from phoenix, az
After i bleached my hair the first time (the ends, not my whole head), this was LITERALLY the only conditioner that would help de-tangle my hair and make it feel soft and not stringy.
I'm a product junkie so i'm constantly trying to find the perfect combo for my hair but i always have a bottle of this conditioner on hand for when i need a little TLC, but as of lately... the pumps on the bottles have sucked b00ty and the conditioner is too thick for it and it just jams up so i have to open the bottle up and take some out that way :/ so thats the only thing that sucks about it.
BUT I have thin, 3B-3C hair and my girlfriend has fine straight hair and we both loved it. She said it made hers feel really soft and she also had color-treated hair. Also, the fragrance is light and leaves your hair smelling really good!
Mistake 1
Ali from Colorado
I hate this stuff. It's too thick to come through the pump, so you squeeze out a gray lump of it. Left my hair very greasy and tangled up. Will never buy again.
Love it! 5
Steena from Sierra Vista, AZ
I get several compliments on how full my hair looks since I started using this shampoo/conditioner combo. Even my hairdresser is amazed. Love it!
Great product. 5
Mj from Phoenix, Arizona
This is the best conditioner I've ever used so far. Never going back to the old stuff.
Never changing products again! 5
LaurentheWriter from Nesbit, MS
I have oily/dandruff - prone hair, so it's very easy for my scalp to gain a lot of buildup. After my first use of this entire line I immediately noticed a huge difference.
I'm NEVER switching products again! My hair hasn't looked this good in a long time.
Pretty awesome! 4
Cujo from Akron
The only problem I have is that the conditioner is too thick for the bottle pump to work. I had to put it in a squeeze bottle. But overall, it works like a charm!
Pleasantly Surprised 4
LizMarz16 from Cary, IL
I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this product. I was not able to smell it prior to purchasing it and that gave me a lot of anxiety because I am picky. I had never tried this brand before purchasing this item either so I was very wary. It smells very good. It does not leave residue and it is not too heavy, although it is a little lite if you need winter hydration. I love the pump and mine works well. I will probably purchase the shampoo that pairs with it.
Great! 5
Lovey from Melbourne, Fl
The conditioner smells great. It kind of detangled my hair too, it was a lot easier to brush out after
amazing slip!! 5
Kim from New York
I love that this product has some amazing slip when detangling curly hair. When I use this conditioner I notice my curls look very moisturized. Will keep buying and I recommend it to every curly girl!!
