Protective Conditioner- This also smelt amazing firstly and was actually a lot thicker than usual conditioners which I loved because my hair felt so much softer after use. I usually don’t like many conditioners but I’ve been using this one non-stop!
This is a really good conditioner especially where I live as it gets very humid in the summer. I found after using the conditioner my hair felt light and soft without any greasiness or residue. It leaves your hair smelling a little like the salon but not in a bothersome way. After using all four products in the Joico Defy Damage line I was amazed by how my hair looked. It is summer here and extremely humid so my hair had been a frizzy mess until I used these. After the first use of all four products my hair wasn’t frizzy at all!
I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review. I really liked this conditioner! It made my hair feel really smooth and lustrous afterwards.
