Pantene Pro-V Daily Moisture Renewal Conditioner - 3.38 fl oz

Everyone tells you that Pantene is a brand known for its affordable but substandard products but is that true? People look at Pantene and ask the question “why are there so many ingredients doing one simple thing?” The question I want to answer is: “are all the ingredients in Pantene's products needed?” My goal here today is to explain what each ingredient is and for you to decide if there are still too many ingredients. Having already written a review for Pantene Moisture Shampoo, I am going to dive into the Daily Moisture Renewal Conditioner. There are 10 ingredients (not including water and fragrance) in this conditioner, and to help simplify what everything does, I am going to separate the ingredients into 3 different categories: preservatives, conditioners, and cleaners/emulsifiers. The first group we will tackle is preservatives, which are there so the product can last and not grow mold. Since there's water in the product, it can grow bacteria fast, which becomes a problem if you put it in your hair. There are 3 different preservatives in this conditioner: Methylisothiazolinone Methylchloroisothiazolinone Benzyl Alcohol. The next group is conditioners. The ingredients in this category help strengthen your hair, seal split ends, and moisturize your hair. The purpose of this product is to help condition your hair, so it doesn’t surprise me that the most amount of ingredients are in this category. There are 4 ingredients in this category; Citric acid Histidine Panthenol Stearyl alcohol. These ingredients also help seal split ends and balance pH, contributing to your hair's health. The last group is cleaners, and emulsifiers. Cleaners are there to help remove excess oil and dirt from the mids and ends of your hair. They leave you with the cleansed hair while the conditions leave you with soft and smooth hair. Emulsifiers help thicken and combine ingredients, and are like a bag for all the ingredients. There are 3 items in this category; Cetyl Alcohol Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid Sodium Chloride. In conclusion, each and every ingredient in this conditioner adds to the product. You need to try this product because all hair is different, and there is a chance this product doesn’t work for you. Even though there are a lot of ingredients, you can’t judge a book by its cover before trying or learning more about it.

Just after one use, it STRAIGHTENED my hair, darkened it, and made it frizzier. It contained so many alcohol types which are all bad for curly hair. I can't recommend this, as it very badly damaged my hair

They messed with the ingredients and lost so many loyal customers. This was my HG conditioner for years but not it doesn't moisturize as well and it doesn't smell the same. Hair feels much more dry and it smells weird after being outside. Kinda like a wet dog smell. It never did this before. I saw a lot of people saying the problem is the glycerin they added, but there's also sodium chloride now too, PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have waited two months for a colorist to give me full or partial highlights because he wanted my hair in better shape. I bought his high end conditioner as well as several others - my choice. While at a discount store I saw this conditioner and thought I would add it too my arsenal since it was only cost a few dollars. Not having confidence of the product doing anything more for my hair and it was better! So the next time I washed my hair I use this product on its own and was shocked! Never having any bounce left in my hair and not wanting heaviness as with other conditioners, I am AMAZED! Soft, shiny, bouncy and HEALTHIER LOOKING THAN ITS EVER BEEN! WOW, WHAT A FIND!

I have been a Pantene user for a long time, but I only use their shampoo until I thought to try out their conditioner. Horrible idea, I don’t know what is wrong with this conditioner but it is making my hair clump out. I have never had a problem with hair loss until using this conditioner. Do not get it!!!! I will not be purchasing again!

I used this once when I couldn’t get my usual stuff and it completely ruined my curl pattern. My hair was soft but frizzy for days afterward even after switching back. Now I have to completely rehab my curls.

Definitely works, makes my hair soft and shiny.Not a strong smell or anything.Sometimes can get stuck and break, but over all really good and worth it.I hope this helped you to decide to get it or not.

Great for my guest bathroom toiletries. This is convenient to pop in the shower and store away when we don’t have guests.

i don’t know what it is with my hair and conditioner, but not all work. some really leave my hair feeling like i didn’t condition it at all no matter how much i may apply. i couod get by using a half pump of this conditioner, just a little dollop, and it always makes my hair immediately smooth and easily detanglable. i don’t know what it is about this specific conditioner but it’s amazing, and if you notice that your hair is stubborn to many conditioners that you try and you feel like the job should be done better, go ahead and give this a try. my hair is dry at the ends, bleached, and wavy and i’ve used this even back when i had virgin hair, and still use it now because it continues to make my hair feel great and manageable.

I just purchased and used it immediately. I was so happy with how my hair felt

I LOVE this shampoo! I tried it after hearing from a chemistry podcast that salon shampoo isn't better than shampoo you can find at the drugstore. So glad to be saving money, and I like pantene more than anything I've used in the past. Really glad there's only silicone/dimethicone in it because plant oils really weigh my hair down. I'm going to try the healthy lengths line when I run out.

I love this conditioner, it makes my hair feel soft and not frizzie. I really wish they'd bring back the old packaging for the 25 oz bottles, I don't like the pump, you can't get everything out

I have used this for years. The new packaging is terrible, but even worse is the new formula. My hair used to be silky and soft and now is coarse, dry and brittle. Sorry that you found a need to change a good product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this conditioner I have long super thick hair and it's usually hard to brush but this conditioner makes it super smooth and easy to brush through with hardly any rats in my hair. And it smells great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This conditioner is very good. I love the bottle shape it makes it so much easier to get all the conditioner out in the end and use in the shower. I felt that it made my hair feel more moisturized and not tangled. I did not need to use a large amount for my shoulder length hair and it had a great smell that did linger after getting out of the shower.

PUMP BOTTLE HAS SO MUCH PRODUCT LEFT THAT YOU ARE FORCE TO OPEN THE CONTAINER AND ADD WATER. THE SQUEEZE TUB IS SO HARD TO PUSH OUT THE PRODUCT OUT. PLEASE GO BACK TO YOUR REGULAR CONTAINERS

I loved being able to use my Pantene on the road

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this. Definitely makes my hair super smooth and look super shiny. I will say I can only use it for about a month or so without residue clearly building up. So I don't use it every time I wash, I switch it up throughout the week.

32 hour formula rocked! 72 hour formula, not so much. Used it only one time, will not be using it again. Horrible! Can't even explain how bad this stuff mad my hair feel.

Perfect for on the go, smells great, and leaves my hair silky smooth!
