I have used this product ever since I first heard about it on a curly hair forum. So, I have been using and buying it for years, and I really like it a whole lot! It's thick, which is why, I have...

I've been tuning in to the hair board (lurking mostly) for about 6 months or so, and everyone raves about this product. And I can see why!! I've been searching for a silicone free conditioner, and...

I've been following the Curly Girl Method for my hair for ~6 months or so now, and this has been my favorite conditioner so far to cowash with. For reference, I have thick 3A, high porosity, color...

I've never used the original Biolage but I love this product. Its rich and creamy and provides deep moisture without weighing my fine hair down. I like that it doesn't contain protein. The...

This is a great product at a lower price-point. My hair responds better to Redken All Soft conditioner and heavy cream. However, this one is definitely in my top 5. My hair: Dry, fine,...

This conditioner works as well or better than the Biolage Hydrating Balm. I think Biolage changed their formula recently but GVP appears not to have made a change and is a dupe for the older...

After hearing rave reviews about this, particularly that it is based on the old cult favorite formula of Biolage's conditioning balm, I decided to buy this along with the matching shampoo. My hair...

Great as a leave-in but makes an unaffordable daily conditioner. It's very moisturizing, and thick.

I can't help but compare this to the other GVP products I've tried, and the Paul Mitchell Detangler one is better. I've found this to be better than common drug store conditioners such as Garnier...

Best deep conditioner I've tried, and my thick, wavy hair is very hard to please. Leaves it soft and lovely.

This is one of two of my holy grail deep conditioning masks (a close runner-up is the Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Mask)! It isn't as "balmy" (thick/oily) as the old Matrix version, but otherwise...

This gem is rare in that its both protein-free AND silicone-free... Hard to find conditioners like this! My hair does not need protein, and in fact gets dry and stiff if I use protein even in small...
