Sometimes this works for me and sometimes it doesn't. And when it doesn't, it really doesn't--tangles everywhere, and my hair looks dry when it's wet. I've tried it as both a rinse out and as a leave-in and it's just not consistent enough to repurchase. Shame though, since the price is right.

LOVE this product. I have 3B curls, and they responded so well to it as a rinse out conditioner as well as a leave-in. I have yet to try it as a deep treatment, but I have no doubt that it will do wonders! Great slip, detangled like magic, left my curls light, soft, and bouncy. Couldn't ask for more :)

Just the best for me. I have just past shoulder length 3a hair, and have used this for the past 8 years. Every time I stray I end up coming back to it. I use it to CO wash, condition, and as a leave-in. I wouldn't say it's deep conditioner, but a great daily.

3b, very high density and very low porosity hair; this product detangles but I saw no improvement with moisture. I bought the liter bottle, used over half of it and my hair was still dry as hay. My hair rarely responds though to even the most intensive salon dry hair treatments, so I can't speak for every 3b but if your hair is as dry and thick as mine, it is unlikely this product will be strong enough to help.

4c hair! I have EXTREMELY tight beautifully nappy hair (that somehow makes cute small slinky type curls when sopping wet-but I digress). I used this as a co-wash and was not extremely impressed. I don't care too much about slip if the co-wash will add a little moisture or begin to soften my hair. When I put it on, it didn't have very much slip but did not add or detract from me being able to detangle my hair. I should note that prior to co-washing or pooing I always do an oil tx with sweet almond or grapeseed oil, 2 - 3 tbsp honey, 3 drops ylang ylang, 3 drops peppermint, ~1 tsp vitamin E, coconut oil and a few squirts shea moisture conditioner, which I leave in for 20 - 30 min. with heat under a shower cap then rinse out. So my hair is already soft prior to shampooing or co-washing. This product used as a co-wash didn't add anything to that softness, when I rinsed it out it actually took away some of the softness that the oil tx left behind but I feel as though since i'm using this to mildly cleanse my hair..this was ok. This product wasn't great but reading others reviews maybe I will try to use as a leave in, it looks like the same consistency as my favorite Giovanni leave in. I'll come back and report once I try this as a leave in. Also on a separate note I purchased the extended moisture elucence conditioner for a protein tx. HORRIBLE it was less viscous than this product. I used it with heat for ~ 30 min. and when I washed it out my hair and ends were extremely dry. I think it was too much protein for my hair or that my hair reacted badly with the specific protein used in it. So if /when you are doing protein tx pay attention to the type of protein in the conditioner, (e.g., milk protein, hydrolyzed protein, keratin, etc) so that you can start to figure out how your hair responds since many conditioners have proteins that aren't readily recognizable.

I love this conditioner! This is a great product to use as a leave-in too.

This has been one of the best conditioners that I have ever used! My hair is so soft and manageable and I have really kinky hair! This is a great product to use as a leave-in, especially if you are transitioning your hair like I am.

I have 3c/4a hair and this conditioner is amazing! I live in Chicago so I have to have a conditioner sans the glycerin if I wanna avoid frizz city. So Elucence has proven to be a wonderful replacement for my winter time conditioner Kinky Curly KT. It detangles wonderfully, it's a great co-wash product (to stretch out the time btw shampooing), and provides excellent moisture as a leave-in. I'm almost done with my first 10oz bottle and I just ordered the 1 liter bottle to get me through the rest of summer. Thank you CurlMart for having coupon codes for this as well! ;o)

Love, love, love, love it!!! Made my 4B hair feel soo soft and the detangling power is great! Hate that I had to wait nearly a week to get it, but it was well worth the wait. I will buy it in a larger size next time. I am truly happy!

This product is great! I use it as a leave in underneath Eco Styler Gel. It is very moisturizing. The best conditioner that I have ever used!

Hands down, the BEST leave-in conditioner I've EVER used for my hair. EVER. EVER! Not a good rinse out conditioner, but a good leave-in. =)

I abosolutely love the softness this conditioner gives my 3c/4a hair! I mixed it with some castor oil and use it as a leave-in and the results are fantastic. I would give this 4.5 curls for its price, ingredients, fragrance and results. I'm not saying it will change your life but it has helped mine.

I really love this product! It fits very naturally with my hair! You can use it as a daily moisturizer, but i use it every other day. It makes your hair soft and give it the moisture it needs! Also it's worth the $8.00! The downside is that it's only sold online but it's worth the wait because this product made my hair more natural and made it grow more thicker! Overall, 2 thumbs up and get this product!

wonderful list of ingredients but it wasn't very moisturizing for my hair as a conditioner. I mostly use this product as a leave in. Suave coconut conditioner and giovanni smooth as silk conditioner worked better for my hair than this product.

This is without a doubt my favorite conditioner. The ONLY reason I can not give it 5 curls is because I have to order it online. Otherwise it is a 5 curl product. This is a protein containing conditioner, so those that are protein sensitive should use caution. For me, it contains JUST the right amount of protien and moisturizers and it detangles like a dream. I've used it as a cowash, a rinse out conditioner, a leave in, and as a deep conditioner (with oils and honey) and each way that I've used it I have been amazed at results. I always try to keep a liter in my bathroom because when my hair is extra tangly or just not acting right, I can reach for this and know that my hair will respond.

This is my staple co-wash/detangler! I buy it by the liter. This is the only product that really detangles my hair consistently, no matter what I do to it. Coils, coil outs, twists, twist-out, week-2 week old hair without manipulation, henna, etc. I get great results each time.

The conditioner was blah. It didn't provide enough slip for my hair, and was only moderately moisturizing. However, it does smell good.

Several months ago I decided to give this product a try after all the hype about it. Unfortunately my hair reacted badly to this product. I used it as a rinse out and as a leave in and it left my hair feeling hard and very dry and like it would crumble at the slightest touch. It's possible that it could be the type of protein that's used in this product. I use other products with protein in them and don't have a problem with them.

All I can say is OMG! What an awesome product, the conditioner is natural and feels luxurious on, but also leaves my hair feeling moisutrized and easier to manage. I am a transitioning 4a/b and have experienced hair loss when after poo and co, but this greatly reduced the shredding post wash. I recommend the shampoo and condish for anyone transitioning and worried about hair loss. Also the condish can be used as a leave in which also works wonders in this way.

3a,b,c and 2c at the nape. I use this product to cowash and I am pleased and impressed. My curls are soft and responsive to other products after this cowashing. Curly Suzy recommended Eluence...thank you!

Love this conditioner... it is moisturizing and calming to my hair, leaves it smooth and soft. It dries and it controls the frizz, continues to be soft and smooth.. it is a new part of my HG. Excellent product! :)

THE BOMB!!!! This has become part of my holy grail... I use ELUCENCE to detangle, deep condish, and as leave-in. There is absolutely no other conditioner that compares for me.

My HG for rinseouts thus far as it has excellent slip and detangles well. It's so moisturizing that I don't need an LI after! Good stuff!

I love this conditioner! It makes my hair feel like butter. I use it as a DC, rinse out and leave-in (most often leave-in). It's really great.

wow! After all the positive reviews, I really was looking forward to trying this conditioner,however it left my hair a tangled mess, i was afraid i would not have hair by the time i finished combing the conditioner through my wet hair. i have 3b/4a hair type. my hair was soft after it dried, and the smell was pleasant (that's why two curls) I think the protein ingredient is the reason for my tangles. For at the fear of being bald, i don't think i'll be repurchasing.

One of the greatest leave-ins. Always produces predictable results.Great moisture!

This product is coming close in my quest for a good conditioner. It is a little light for me, but still moisturizes and detangles admirably and doesn't leave my hair feeling heavy or itchy like the more intense ones I have tried. Have not tried it as a leave-in yet, but love the idea.

Great detangler, VERYYY moisturizing made my hair of mixed textures 4b 4a & 3c very soft. This conditioner is definitely a keeper and next time Im buying the larger size!

I adore this conditioner. It leaves me hair silky smooth, helps it lay flatter, smells great, and the price is pretty nice. Will definitely stock up on this

This conditioner is awesome! I use it as a rinse out and a leave in and it's great! It's not too heavy/light, just right. Great product and great price.

This conditioner works great as a leave-in. It keeps my porous 3c curls moisturized all day. It's my favorite.

This conditioner works great as a leave-in. It keeps my porous 3c curls moisturized all day. it's my favorite.

I love this conditioner! It detangled well and made my hair super soft.

I love this conditioner...great slip and leaves my hair feeling soft all day. What's great is that I can use it as a leave-in conditioner as well. I'm going to order the liter size next time!

Great conditioner! Used as a leave in for my daughters 3a/bish hair. But I find that the cheapie V05 works just as excellent on her fine tresses.

I really enjoyed the slathering on of this one. It has this great, creamy quality. Nice smell, too.

Lots and lots of rich conditioning and detangling going on here. The liter size is the way to buy this one. Really a fantastic conditioner.

Great conditioner! However, I wish it were less than 8 bucks though. In the long run, I'm better off purchasing trader joes nourish line....

I love this conditioner, it makes my hair feel well moisturized and soft.

If it weren't for the peach extract making me itch & the price, this would get 5 curls. It's one of the best leave-in/rinse-out conditioners I've tried.

this has been my staple product for at least 3 yrs now. i buy it by the liter! its so rich and moisturizing, plus it can be used in many different ways. my 3c hair loves it, my SO is a 2a/b and his hair loves it and even my mom who has relaxed hair uses it.

Wonderfully remarkable product! Detangled and softened my 4A curls. Right now, I'm doing the CG thing, but I still miss my Elucence conditioner. If I ever cheat, this is what I will cheat with!

I had not so great results (nice slip but dried w/o shine and drying to my hair) with the litre size I bought years ago but was reluctant to swap it away. I've recently pulled it out to try it as a leave-in. By itself and gel yeielded not so greta results but when I paired it up with Aveda's Universal Styling cream = Wow!! I got coily defintion in the perpetually fuzzy areas near my ears and weight that I need. I'll use this as a flex cheaper option to Aveda's Be Curly.

THANK GOODNESS! This is definately what my hair has been searching for! Great moisture and my hair loves it. The smell is okay (the shampoo is YUMMY!), and the detangling is pretty good too. I love that I can use it as a leave in. It makes a lot of room on my shelf because all I need is this, some gel, and the shampoo. This conditioner is ALL THAT!

I was so excited to try this product after hearing all the hype but this did absolutely nothing for my hair...It smells good and that's about it.

4B: This is the best shampoo/conditioner combo ever. When i first went natural over a year ago I thought my hair would never be soft and manageable. Thank goodness I was sooo wrong.

My hair is 2b to 3b depending on humidity in the air. I wanted to love this product from the reviews it recieved. It made my hair soft and full but full of frizz. When reading reviews and buying products; buy the small size to see if it works for you.

This is a good conditioner to use. It detangled well and the moisturizing was OK. Not overly great, but not bad either. It does have good ingredients in it and I would purchase it again.Elucence makes good quality hair care products at a very reasonable price.

I used to love this stuff, but I feel like John Masters Organics Citrus and Neroli detangler is better for my hair. It leaves my hair a lot softer than this. I have 3c hair.

I expected this product to be better than sliced bread the way people are talking about it and it's ranking on the "Top Sellers" in the CurlMart, but it's just ALRIGHT. The price tag was attractive compared to other conditioners on here, but that's about it. Moisture was ehh, slip was ehh, and the smell was...smelled like cough syrup.

I don't know whats wrong with me, but my 3a hair doesn't seem to like any of the best-sellers/reviewers. I didn't really like the smell to start off, and had to use loads to feel like it was doing anything for moisture. It worked better as a leave in conditioner, but still left my hair dry and barely less tangled.

The best condioner I have used in a really long time, though it was not amazing. However, I was completely impressed with how soft and moisturized my curls felt. Detangling not superb, but did a decent job on my thick 3c curls. Overall, a pretty nice conditioner. Will use again in the future.

Update: Initially great. Continued use caused my protein sensitive hair to be dry and brittle. No slip or moisture as a leave-in or co-wash/DT. I'm so disappointed w/all the raves about this one.

This is a great leave-in conditioner for me. It wasn't too moisturizing as a co-wash, DT conditioner, though. My hair was soft and shiny. Loved the peachy smell! I was able to layer stylers over it. It's a staple for me!

I have fine, VERY curly mixed-race hair, and it's hard to find a conditioner that gives enough moisture, detangles, and doesn't build up. This one is definitely the best of the many, many conditioners I've tried! Good slip, great moisture, nice smell, and no silicone. I can leave a lot in my hair after rinsing without any nasty buildup, and it complements my other products.

I was worried because it seemed so thin, but this was great, lots of moisture and instant detangling. Works great as a leave-in too. Yummy, light scent.

Incredible detagler, but not too great at moisterizing.

I really love the ingredients in this product.It all sounds so nourishing. However, the detangling properties are pretty modest. It works like every other conditioner;however, I have experienced better conditioners which give my hair more slip after usage.

This is one of the best conditioners -- great slip, detangles well and you don't need a lot. Nice price tag for such a great product! Thanks NC.com...I wouldn't have known about this product without you!

Like I said with the poo, I sent away for this product based on the favorable reviews and you guys didn't steer me wrong. I've used these products 3 times now and I'm noticing FAR LESS STRAW and more SOFT CURL formation. It's nice to have something that adds moisture without adding a thick coat of goo!

This conditioner is awesome! Just after 2 uses, my hair softer! With honey, its even better!

Fabulous product. Keeps the hair moisturized and untangled. I use it everday as a leave in. Makes the hair very soft.

This conditioner is my absolute favorite conditioner ever. It smells like heaven, and it leaves my hair more fantastically soft and moisturized than any other conditioner I've used. It leaves my hair in the best shape, and doesn't over-condition. Perfect as a leave in, too. I'll never be without this in my shower!

I am very close to declaring this a HG. Very moisturizing, but not too heavy abd doesn't weigh down my fine hair. I am currently out of it and really missing it. No other conditioner works as consistently for me. My next order, I'm ordering the liter size.

the bomb! a great after shmapoo conditioner and excellent leave in. not a great co-wash.

the best conditioner!!! it does everything! you can use it as a detangler, leave-in, co-wash, dt...and it even cooks and cleans too! haha! but seriously, i always come back to this conditioner when my hair product experiments go awry. when i first used it, it was just average. but it took a few tries before it kicked in, then WOW!!! (it probably took a few tries at first because my hair was so dry/damaged and/or previous product buildup) definite staple!!!

Good for detangling, but I didn't find it all that moisturizing.

Love this stuff almost as much as I do the shampoo. It makes even the back of my hair feel nice and soft which lately has not wanted to soften up for anything. Wonderful scent and also makes a great leave in.

I have used this conditioner for 1½ years now and I absolutely love it! Nothing like it!

Love it! One of my most favorite conditioners. Multi-functional: can be used as a rinse out or as a leave-in. It offers great slip and easy detangling. I also adore the crisp, clean scent!

I bought this product after reading all the great reviews about it. The first day I tried it, I just used it as a wash-out conditioner, and thought that it was ok but nothing that different than some other things I've tried in the past. I think maybe I just didn't use enough, because today I used more of it & left it on a bit longer before rinsing. Then I also mixed some of it in with my styling gel (FX Curls Up Reactivator). WOW!! HUGE difference! I had an awesome amount of curl - soft, defined, bouncy, full of volume. The best hair day I've had in a long time! I will definately buy this product again.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! I use it everyday on my 3b hair as both my "washing" conditioner and as a leave-in. It smells slightly fruity and my hair is always happy after I use it..bouncy and shiny!

Love this conditioner! Gives immediate slip and moisturizes like a charm. I can just use the leave in as my styler and go. Makes my curls shiny and soft, and enhances my natural curl.

This product didn't detangle my hair very well or make it look special after it dried. While other people rave about this conditioner, to me, it seemed to be average. Go figure.

Superior detangler, smells nice, and a little goes a long way. I used about a nickel size amount for each section of my hair (4 sections). I also had significantly less shedding when I combed. Left my hair soft.

I love this product! I use it as a leave in mixed with honey every day.

This is another of my favorite conditioners. It could be a little more detangling but it's so moisturizing and I love this as a leave-in. A great conditioner for a reasonable price.

great conditioner! i love it as a rinse-out and a leave-in, i've also added honey and oils to it for a DT, and i've even used it as a washing conditioner. only complaints are that it is not the best detangler i've ever used (devacurl one condition is better IMO) and i notice as i'm rinsing it out that it seems to lather a bit. great price too.

It's very detangling for rinse-out conditioning, but as a leave-in, my hair looks like cotton-candy. If I add honey, it looks shiny and bouncy, but to earn 4 curls from me, a product has to look great on its own.

I like it ok, but I find that my hair is happier with a conditioner that has cones. Last time I used this conditioner, it left my hair dry and straw-like. I really wanted to like it, but for me, it's just an ok conditioner.

It is a very moisturizing but not too heavy conditioner for me. I do alternate it with other conditioners. It works better for me now in the heat than in the winter.

This is the best conditioner I have ever used. Great slip, smell & also great as a leave-in. Leaves my hair feeling soft & not over-conditioned.

Fantastic conditioner!

My HG conditionner. It has everything I need, moisture -lots of moisture!, helps with frizz, light enough so it doesn't weight down curls, smells fresh, and just feels amazing in my hair! It's the best detangler I've tried. Also a great leave in. I've tried others, but this is pretty hard to beat.

This is an average conditioner, but I guess I just had too high hopes. Seems to enhance my frizzies and not provide enough moisture. I prefer Giovanni's 50/50 moisturizer.

I love this conditioner. It is very moisturizing, but doesn't weigh my hair down. It is great as a regular conditioner and as a leave-in. It smells great, too.

Wow, this is a really great conditioner. Best I have ever used. Leaves my hair very soft and curls bouncy.

I have very dry hair that needs a thick creamy conditioner and this stuff just didn't do the job for me. It was way too light for my hair type, but detangled well and smelled good.

I read all the rave reviews about the Elucence line so I bought this shampoo, conditioner, and elixir. This is one of the best conditioners I have come across. Thanks for all the recommendations :)

This officially has become the first conditoner that I will continue to buy in bulk. It is fabulous! I used to think that a conditioner had to have at least one 'cone to be effective. Boy was I wrong. My hair feels so soft and lush after I use this. Makes doing the mod.CG a real treat. Thanks Elucence!!!

I used this conditioner for the first time w/high expectations based on raves and reviews from other girls w/my hair type and I was a little disappointed. Maybe they've had better luck than me because I didn't really notice any softness, detangling, or moisture. It's just like a regular conditioner. OR maybe I'm not getting the same great results as the girls above me due to the fact that I just started the CG routine..maybe it takes a while for things to start "working".

Excellent conditioner. I've used it as a rinse-out and leave-in and both ways are great. Moisturizing but not coating, no cones, works well for when I wear my hair straight or curly.

This is fab stuff. My dry highlighted colored hair is moisturized. Very affordable, and smells peachy.

This is my favorite conditioner. I keep trying new products, but always come back to this one because it cannot be beat. Very affordable. My comb easily glides through my hair after application. Love it!

Great conditioner that feels awesome going on. Not too heavy or too light. Hair feels soft after using it, and frizzies are tamed because of the moisturizing qualities of the conditioner.

I have been using this product for years and I always go back to it. The conditioning benefits are the best! I use it as a daily, leave in and deep conditioner.

A fantastic daily conditioner. It's rich and creamy and leaves my hair noticeably softer and shinier. It seems to be good for a lot of different curl types.

All I can say is wow! I've been using this product for several years and never lets me down and does a great job detangling my hair. Great for every day use.
