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!!

gifted by nutrafol, this Nutrafol strand defender conditioner I like how gentle it is and doesn't weigh your hair down its hydrating while not leaving it greasy. I color my hair and like that it is color safe as well
Amazing hair
Hair Type Wavy Hair
This conditioner made my hair feel so hydrated and soft, but it didn't weigh down my already thinning hair. I like how it helped tame any frizz and reduced any dullness but instead made my hair feel and look so healthy! This was gifted by nutrafol
Well formulated
Hair Type Straight Hair
gifted by nutrafol | I have fairly fine straight hair and a lot of conditioners weigh my strands down and make them appear more greasy than they should between washes. This one, in combination with the matching shampoo, adds moisture back but in a very light way that helps me still enjoy some volume. Very happy to have this in my current routine!
Hydration
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
Such a good experience with my first product by nutrafol. The conditioner did a good job of keeping my hair feeling hydrating upon using in combo with the shampoo. I felt like my hair looked and felt healthier after using as well. complimentary from nutrafol
Perfect for my thin, fine hair
Hair Type Straight Hair
This conditioner is a perfect complement to the shampoo. As a thin, fine hair girl a lot of conditioners weigh down my hair but this one does not. It leaves my hair smooth, silky, and hydrated. It is also very easy to rinse out and does not leave any residue. The scent is spa like and I really enjoy it! Gifted by Nutrafol.
