best conditioner for fine, curly hair!

I typically have this on Subscribe and Save via Revain. This is by far the best conditioner for my fine, curly hair that is prone to tangling. I use it alone as a Co-Wash and my hair feels clean and I don't notice a major build-up. The key for me is that I can easily put a shower comb through it without too much hair shedding. This is major plus for me and the reason I will keep buying it.

Pros
  • I love this conditioner for it’s moisture and slip.
Cons
  • May not repair split ends or damaged hair

Amazing conditioner!

I love this stuff! I’ve been using it for years and it works wonders on my 3c/4a curly hair! I use it as a deep conditioner and sometimes as a leave-in. It’s also great for detangling. If I straighten my hair after using this as a deep conditioner, it’s so smooth and silky! And I got this for a bargain, 3 for $8! :)

Pros
  • LAURYL & LAURETH SULFATE FREE: GIOVANNI products do not contain harsh chemicals commonly used in regular beauty products, leaving you with strong, beautiful hair.
Cons
  • Could cause hair to feel sticky or tacky

Noticeable Difference

I am over 50% gray, and until I started coloring my hair a few months ago, it was very dry and tired-looking. The hair color helps my hair look and feel better, but this conditioner makes my hair feel wonderful!I had not used conditioner much in recent years, but after I started using Giovanni shampoo a few months ago, I decided to try this conditioner. Now I use it every time I shampoo, which is usually every other day. This conditioner leaves my hair feeling soft and smooth without weighing…

Pros
  • Adds shine and luster to dull, lifeless hair
Cons
  • Could cause hair to become oily or greasy faster than usual

Moisturizing indeed

I have been using this conditioner for several years now. I am very happy with how my hair responds to it. It has a great level of moisturization but does not leave any residue. I also use Chickapoo from the same brand and will continue to do so. Great products.

Pros
  • Smooth texture spreads easily through hair for even application
Cons
  • Could be too heavy for those with fine or thin hair

but it worked great before that incident

I have to say I would have given this 5 stars when I first tried it, but after about 2 months, my scalp broke out when I left it in for about 3-4 hours. I was *trying* to see if I could condition while I did other things around the house, but it left my scalp really irritated. It took about 1 year for my skin to clear. I don't know what I reacted to and I haven't had the reaction since I stopped using it, but it worked great before that incident. Essentially, it's a wonderful product of you use

Pros
  • It is a little light but I like it a lot. I think my hair is getting softer.
Cons
  • May leave a filmy or greasy residue on hair

Very good moisturizing conditioner

Very good moisturizing conditioner. The slip is amazing and feels soft on the hair. Its my favorite go to conditioner when others fail. Using Giovanni's Smooth as Silk line for 4yrs now. Still great. Must have conditioner.

Pros
  • A favorite among salon professionals and at-home users alike
Cons
  • Might contain ingredients that are harmful to marine life

Good Conditioner. A Little Pricey For My Needs

Okay value for the 3 bottles, totals around 24 oz. We usually buy paraben and sulfate free products, around 32 oz for closer to $15 or so, from our local Grocery Outlet. Thought it would be nice to have our hair care on Subscribe and Save for the convenience but may stick with our prior routine.This conditioner feels wonderfully silky out of the bottle and smells great too. I wouldn't say it makes my hair especially silky though. It's nice, no added build-up or anything, just not better than…

Pros
  • VEGAN-FRIENDLY & CRUELTY-FREE: GIOVANNI Products use a number of organic ingredients and are Leaping Bunny Certified cruelty free. GIOVANNI Products are never tested on animals and come in sophisticated recyclable packaging
Cons
  • Might not rinse out easily, leaving hair feeling greasy or heavy

Amazing! very light smell as

I have 3c-4a natural hair and this product leaves my hair moisturized, detangled, and defined! Amazing! very light smell as well

Pros
  • Been using this a long time. Works great in my curly hair.
Cons
  • May not have a pleasant scent for some users

Great for super sensitive skin

I have super sensitive, dry skin and eczema, and this conditioner works great for my hair. It doesn't build up, but adds back some of that natural moisture my hair thirsty curls are missing. I use this every time I shower, and just use shampoo when necessary. I use the Kiss My Face Whenever shampoo when needed.

Pros
  • It's perfect for anyone's hair. I can introduce it to friends
Cons
  • Might not provide enough moisture for ethnic or curly hair types

Working well good for me

I subscribe to the curly girl lifestyle, so this was recommended. I like that it's cruelty free, as well as free from sulfides, sulfates etc. I use it as a cowash as well as for leave in, and my hair loves it.

Pros
  • Safe for use on color-treated hair
Cons
  • Might not have a pleasant texture or consistency

Overall great product

Overall, this product is better than any brand you could buy at CVS, Wallgreen and the like. I have been using this for a year and a half. However, for some reason, sometimes I get incredible results after washing my hair with it but other times it is just okay. I would say 50% of the time my hair would be AMAZING and 50% it would just be good. I am not complaining, just pointing out the variance. It could totally be my own hair type though.

Pros
  • Beauty & Personal Care
Cons
  • Could contain synthetic fragrances or colors

Love this Conditioner

I use this conditioner for my hair and bread. It makes my beard so soft and less tanglily. This beats the beard conditioners I have used in the past.

Pros
  • The best conditioner I've found. Lots of slip and I use it as a leave in for my dry curly hair.
Cons
  • Could cause hair to become brittle or break

Soft and smooth hair

I love this conditioner. When I ran out of it, I could really see and feel a difference in my hair, which is long. With the conditioner, my hair is smooth and soft. Without it, using another conditioner, my hair became dry and rough. Happy to get a three pack of this and will always keep it around.

Pros
  • I love this conditioner it make my daughter hair surf it make shine and doesn’t make hair dry
Cons
  • Could cause hair to appear flat or lack volume

Best Conditioner I used in Years

Best Conditioner I used in Years. Giovanni is a very good hair product esp since Iam a natural girl, finding the right products so u can have good slippage while detangling is hard, butttttt this works hands down.

Pros
  • Overall a very nice product and cruelty free which is what I was looking for!
Cons
  • Could cause scalp irritation for sensitive skin

No longer works for my 4b/4c hair

this conditioner was my go to deep conditioner for years -- provided lots of slip and detangled my coils easily. Seems like they have changed the formula, because now when I put it in my hair it just feels like creamy water -- it sits on top of my hair and provides no slip at all. Will start searching for a new conditioner to use.

Pros
  • This conditioner smells good and has a lot of slip, that made detangling a breeze
Cons
  • Could cause scalp buildup or flaking

Best Conditioner good for me

I am natural with 3c/4a hair. Being natural you are always in search of a great conditioner that gives good slip. Well this is it. I leave it on while i shower and my hair is instantly detangled. It makes my hair feel so soft and its very moisturizing. I am able to run the comb right through with hardly any problems.

Pros
  • DAMAGE RELIEF: GIOVANNI Smooth as Silk Conditioner is formulated to gently detangle your hair while protecting against damages and split ends. Its rich formulation transforms your hair into a silky palette, taming unruly or frizzy hair
Cons
  • Might not be effective for those with oily hair

As advertised.: my feedback

This product came about a week ago and it came as advertised. Nice packaging, and very lovely smells. :) You DO get three bottles, so they aren't lying when they say 'pack of 3'. I keep hearing so much about Giovanni, so I decided to test it out myself and purchase it. The only downside is, if you don't live in the States, it's a little harder to purchase this since apparently this item can only be sold within the States. So luckily for me, I was able to find a way to get it shipped to my…

Pros
  • It's really big. I love the reasonable cost of it.
Cons
  • Could be too expensive for some budgets

Thank you Giovanni I thought I was born with greasy hair, after a couple bottles I realized it is the crap they put in other shampoo's and Conditioners. Although it is slightly more expensive than those found in markets you need to use less and this bottle will last me weeks.

Pros
  • I love it. I love it even more in this bigger bottle!
Cons
  • May not provide enough moisture for extremely dry hair

This stuff is AMAZING!

This stuff is AMAZING! This size (33.8Fl) is PERFECT for natural girls who use conditioner 3x more than shampoo. I love the smell and makes my hair "smooth as silk" and give my curls the bounce they need

Pros
  • Smooth and conditions well
Cons
  • May not provide enough shine or luster for dull hair

Not Deep Moisture on my review.

I would give this four stars if it weren't for the false advertising. I bought this because of the ingredient list posted online. It says "Deep Moisture" online but the product I got was "Deeper Moisture" and had a bunch of unnecessary ingredients like different kinds of fatty alcohols added to it. That being said, it actually worked better than I expected. The bottle shape is cumbersome and makes it difficult to get all of it out. If they had advertised this honestly the shape…

Pros
  • Provides long-lasting moisture without needing frequent reapplication
Cons
  • Might not work well with other products in a hair care routine
