Made My Hair Soft and Bouncy
Gifted by nutrafol. I see Nutraol everywhere—TV, my dermatologist's office, TikTok—I was very eager to try this! I have fine hair that has thinned out significantly since having two kids. My hair is also dry and lacks shine. Pretty much any products that say they will thicken or moisturize weigh dow...

SMELLS STRONG
Gifted by Nutrafol - wow is this strongly scented conditioner! So lemongrassy and overwhelming, I cannot use this regularly unfortunately. Make a fragrance free version and this would be a knockout product!!

I've been using this conditioner alongside the matching shampoo for over two weeks now. My scalp feels so much cleaner and refreshed ever since I've started using this duo. It's too soon to speak of hair growth benefits, but I can't wait to continue using them.
More strength, less breakage.
Hair Type Wavy Hair
My hair looks smoother, less frizzy, and more put together without trying too hard. It's really good at detangling, my hair feels softer right away and I don't struggle as much when brushing, which I feel like helps with less breakage overall. It also gives enough hydration to make my ends look smoother, but without that coated or greasy feeling. I've noticed my hair feels a bit more elastic and stronger, like it doesn't snap as easily when I style it. It just feels healthier and more resilient. #gifted by nutrafol

The best
Hair Type Straight Hair
The Strand Defender Conditioner is lightweight but still really nourishing. It smooths and softens my hair without making it feel heavy or greasy, which I love. My hair feels easier to detangle and style, and it looks more hydrated and manageable overall. complimentary from nutrafol
Amazing
Hair Type Straight Hair
I've really loved incorporating the Nutrafol Strand Defender into my routine. My hair feels stronger, looks healthier, and I'm seeing so much less fallout. The texture is really luxurious and it leaves my hair feeling soft and nourished after every wash. Highly recommend. Gifted by nutrafol
