Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment

I was a bit skeptical of this sticky looking pre-shampoo deep conditioning treatment. Afdter trying it, however, I am a believer. My over-dyed hair was silkier, shinier, softer and just all around prettier-enough so that I got a compliment. It has a great fragerance that I can't quite place-a sort of musky, chocoaltely scent.

Suave Professionals Humectant Conditioner

Just as good as its shampoo counterpart! It softens and moisturizes my color abused hair, with no greasy aftertaste! The scent again is coconut goodness!

Warren-Tricomi Pure Strength Conditioner with SPF for All Hair Types

Strike two for Warren-Tricomi. Maybe because it's for "all hair types," but this did not do anything for me. So un-conditioning, in fact, that I actually reconditioned my hair with another product after using this. What's the deal, Mr. Fancy Pants Hair Stylist?

Pantene Pro-V Always Smooth Conditioner

I guess I could take it or leave it. This does smooth and defrizz, but I do notice a slight heaviness to it. Not as marked as some, though!

Redken All Soft Conditioner

First, the good news. This conditioner does an excellent job of moisturizing the hair. Redken does a great job of delivering. Now, the bad news. I can't get past the smell. There is a vinegary hint to the fragrance. It reminds me of coloring Easter Eggs.

Sunsilk De-Frizz Conditioner

Remember the matching shampoo? This works the same way-it de-frizzes by making one's hair lank, limp, and greasy. At that price, I prefer the frizz!

Frederic Fekkai Technician Color Care Mask

Finally, my frizz halo is gone. This mask is great! It really did make my hair, soft, shiny and hydrated. In fact, my hair actually took longer to air dry today than it normally does, which leads me to believe that this product may actually be a humectant* to boot!

*A humectant actually draws water from the air, therefore creating greater hydration.

Redken Blonde Glam Conditioner

This conditioner is designed for "multi-tonal" blondes. AKA-Highlights!

It hydrated my hair, and did add more shine and sparkle to my summer blonde-dare I say, my hair was glam? It did a good job at holding down the frizzies too. Finally! I've had a frizz halo for a week!

The one thing I did not like was the odor, which was faintly reminiscent of perm solution. I have an overly acute sense of smell, though, so I think most would not be bothered by it.

Warren-Tricomi Pure Strength Strengthener for All Hair Types

Just what we all need. Another step in the shower.

This product is designed to be used after shampoo and before conditioner. It claims to "cure split ends instantly while repairing damaged cuticles."

This product made no noticeable difference to my hair, and for good reason. There is only one way to cure split ends, instantly or no.......

it's called a trim, people.

Terax Crema Conditioner

I have to admit, I don't ususally get overwhelmed by a product just because every person with a Sephora VIP card has already got five of them. This may explain why I've never had an Orgasm (from Nars, that is!) But, Terax Crema is one of those products that deserve the cult. I'm pretty sure that this conditioner can indeed turn straw into gold. It's a bargain at any price!

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle

There is nothing fancy about this conditioner, but I am a fan. Right now I am summer blonde, and it does a fine job of hydrating. I started using it in high school, so the fragrance does make me feel like a teenager-at least for a few minutes.
