I have naturally high porosity 2b/2c long wavy hair. I was afraid that because this brand was formulated for type 3/4 hair that this conditioner would be too heavy or weigh my hair down. I thought the medium conditioner might be a better choice for my hair type, but "heavy" is the only option in the travel set, so I gave it a try. I used the hydration shampoo from the travel kit first, then this heavy conditioner. I used it like I would a deep conditioner - I let it sit on my hair for 5 minutes before rinsing it completely out. It rinsed out cleanly, but I could tell my hair was moisturized. I followed it with the leave-in conditioner, also from the travel kit. I did not use a styler afterward and I air dried. These products gave me great waves and even a few spirals, and I never get good spirals without a styling product! Also my hair is now so super shiny and so soft! Not weighed down at all! My hair is naturally strawberry blonde, and if a product is too heavy, my blonde will immediately look dark and dirty. Not today! My hair looks so light and shiny and clean! I can't stop touching it! I don't understand some of the other bad reviews on Ulta for this brand, saying the products leave the hair greasy. That was not my experience at all! The only negative I have found is that the heavy conditioner did not have a lot of slip for detangling. The leave-in conditioner had much better slip for me. I love these products and I hope Pattern comes out with stylers soon!
I used this product after the shampoo. Though it is rich and thick it does not do a good job of detangling especially since the tangled were brought on by the shampoo. I left the conditioner on for 10 minutes after working it in and it was still a struggle. I generally have no issue detangling my hair and it takes little time. After using both products my hair felt dry and still tangled mess. I will not buy again and do not recommend. I was recommended Deva Curl No Poo and Conditioner, which I used this morning and I had great results and comments on my hair.

I'm glad Pattern has a way to try the different levels of conditioner before you commit to the larger size purchase. I was amazed at the moisture, the yummy smell but mainly THE COILS! I hadn't styled my hair yet and it was sooo coily! Just amazing!

Worst conditioner ever! Thought I would try this "heavy" conditioner since my hair is in desperate need of moisture, it left this weird residue in my hair and made my hair all tangled. I would've been better off without any conditioner at all. Now I have to rewash and style my hair again.

I'm going to keep this short since some other reviewers also had the same problem as me. The conditioner was extremely difficult to get out of the squeeze bottle. I had to use the shower wall to help me push the conditioner out of the tube and it came out like dried toothpaste. I was hoping that this meant it would be really moisturizing, unfortunately it wasn't. It dried my hair out and had absolutely no slip. When I was done towel drying my hair, the ends of my hair were crunchy. I'm glad that I only purchased the travel size to try and not a larger bottle.

I only finger detangled and this product worked great on my hair I did use another mask before it though. I had to use the whole bottle for my 4c hair so buying a really big bottle for that hair type is what I would recommend if you're going to keep buying the product. I probably won't buy it again because of the price.

I really love this conditioner. It's hydrating and makes wash day detangling easy. I think this conditioner gets a bad rap from folks who don't condition properly. Texture and density play a part, but you also have to use WATER. The thicker/denser the hair, the more water you'll need. This stuff is thiiiiick so apply and add water and you'll be able to comb/finger detangle. This isn't something you can just slather in your hair. I have dense hair with fine strands, and I've had no issue using this conditioner. Again...add more water or it will just sit in your hair and your hair will be as though you didn't use conditioner.

Left my hair feeling brittle like straw. Not good. Had to use a different conditioner to be able to comb it.

I purchased the travel kit for myself & a coworker to try. We split the products and by far this conditioner worked wonders on my curls. I love a thick conditioner that clumps my curls on contact. After rinsing my hair was bouncy, shiny, & soft. That's how I can tell it's great for my hair texture. I'll be purchasing the full size soon.

I have Type 4 kinky/curly hair. It gets dry and it tangles very easily. I am normally skeptical of brands made by someone with a texture of hair that is more easily managed and subdued. What caught my attention was the "heavy". Although my hair is kinky and curly it is also fragile and fine. I figured I could try the small product to test it out. I figured it would give me about 2-3 uses to get a full picture. I loved the unique smell. I loved that the product was so thick. It was very good for detangling. I wet my hair and generously finger-combed the product through my hair. I let it sit for longer than 10 minutes. When I washed my hair, it was so easy to manage. I will be looking into the other products as this one did me proud.

Used as an in the shower conditioner. I tried to finger detangle with it, but found there wasn't much slip. Smells good, like cucumber, and the smell lasts. I chose it over other products because I'm allergic to coconut oil and many hair care products give me a rash on my hands and scalp. I used it two days ago and haven't noticed a rash yet, I've even spritzed and styled daily. I left it on for a few minutes while I washed my face and body. When I rinsed I was surprised at how smooth and soft my curls felt. The curl definition is great too!

This conditioner didn't have enough slip for me. I didn't really like the scent very much. I will not be buying the bigger size like I imagined I would. I have very thick 3C hair.

I purchased the travel size heavy conditioner for collies. I was pleasantly surprised.This product provides enough moisture without being greasy or weighing your hair down. It smells so good, and leaves your hair feeling soft and clean!! A little goes a long ways. It is great for detangling too. I will definitely be buying this product again in the larger size.

This conditioner is suuuuuuuper thick, but it goes on in a strange way. It doesn't really coat my hair like I had hoped, and it doesn't provide as much slip as I need. I felt like my hair couldn't absorb it. It was better than a lot of other conditioners I have tried at Ulta, but it still wasn't "it". I'm currently testing out the same product but in the medium weight, and it seems to be going better...but it's only the first day.

literally did nothing for my hair. No softness or slip and didn't detangle whatsoever. It was the oddest thing, like putting nothing at all on my hair. I expected a lot more for the price.

I have type 4 hair that is thick and dries out quickly. Other conditioners I can feel once I wash it out drying out my hair. This was not the case. It was thick but I like that and it easily coated my hair. Definitely buying the liter bottle.
Rose from Atlanta, GA
So far I love this product. It is a heavy conditioner more like a mask. Hair is real nice and curly after use.
Paige from Columbus, OH
I use this for my 3C-4A coily son. It has a nice thick texture that provides a good slip. I am able to comb through his hair after leaving on for a few minutes. The only drawback I have noticed so far is the smell. It's not a bad scent but it reminds me of a grandma/aunty.

I don't usually leave reviews but I had to for this because of all the negative ones! This line worked GREAT for my 3b/3c hair. I almost got the Medium conditioner and I'm super happy I didn't. This made detangling my hair so easy and it was SO moisturizing!! Please don't let the negative reviews deter you from trying this out!! You can always return it if you don't like it but it worked perfectly for me.

I did really try to like it and make it work - did use in different amounts and stuff but it's just not the right thing for my 4B hair
