I just have to say, I love all of Kristen Ess’ hair products. Especially this one yet! While using the conditioner I can literally run my hands through my hair; & I’m a blonde girlie so if you know anything about have bleach blonde hair it just feels different while washing lol anywho, I highly recommend this shampoo & please do not forget to grab the conditioner along with it. She also had a Hair Mask for the softening, GET IT. Thank me later. Your truly ;)

Causes hair thinning
DO NOT BUY!!! I’ve been a user of Kristen Ess for at least 5 months and noticed my hair thinning more and more. Just recently I started reading reviews of people who have had significant hair loss and thinning from using this brand.

Overall great stuff
Smells great - an earthy, musky cologne type of scent. Lathers well, rinses clean. Hair did feel softer and not tangled after using but the hopeless frizz remains. A little pricey but do able on sale. Definitely a 5 star product even if it didn’t help my personal frizz.

Love the moisture
This product, along with the shampoo and mask, have transformed my hair. I have type 1b/1c hair, and it requires a lot of moisture. This conditioner adds the right amount of moisture to my hair without weighing it down or making it greasy. My hair is so soft and bouncy after I use this line. I highly recommend to anyone with fine hair that needs moisture.

Super Greasy
This is not moisturizing at all! It left my hair so greasy I could literally wipe the grease off my hair with my hand and I only used a tiny bit as my hair is thin. The only good thing about this product is the smell and even that is pretty basic anyways. My hair was left greasy yet dry and tangly. I would not recommend this product or brand tbh except for the clarifying shampoo as I haven’t had problems with that. If you love having pillow soft hair get something else.

Def recommend ✨
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was gifted by Influenster in exchange of my honest review✨ I really loved this conditioner🦋My hair felt softer and more manageable after. It was pretty thick so you dont need to use a lot. And the bottle was cute, but a bit shorter than others. For its price and benefits I would use it again.

Hair loss
I normally so not write reviews but I had to after seeing post about these products making customers loose their hair. I am in fact one of those customers. Do not buy these products. I had thick beautiful hair and now after using this product for a couple of months my hair is thin!

Returning ASAP
Never really write reviews but this line from Kristen ess is overly saturated with paid reviews. I was looking for something hydrating but also something to really clean my scalp & hair from product buildup. This pair didn’t do either of those two things. Shampoo is thin I ended up having to wash 3x to get my scalp feeling semi clean, conditioner claims to detangle & hydrate but I had to work thru so many knots in my hair even with letting it sit for a few mins as directed. Instead of detangling I actually ended up losing a pretty big chunk of hair. Do not waste your money on this if you love your hair & want moisture.
