All of my friends RAVED about this product. It left my hair dry dry dry and full of tangles.

Very moisturizing. Even left a little in per instructions after rinse. I look forward to using it in the winter. Would like to see a 32 ounce container since I used about 6 ounces. For some reason, it's difficult to find in my area.

works very well as a mask when hair need to be remoisturized. Makes styling much easier. I have only used it as a mask - don't know how it works as a live-in

Nice product. It gives my dry, frizzy, tight curls extra moisture, which is always wonderful! I've had pretty good results with the Smooth Down line so far, better than with anything else I've tried.

After all the great reviews, I was sorely disappointed in this conditioner. It wasn't terrible - but I'd say it was about as effective as Dove or L'oreal. I got so-so curl formation and my hair was slightly weighed down. I experimented with different amounts and leaving it in longer, but nothing seemed to help.

This conditioner made my hair really soft and less frizzy. The fragrance could be better but it has good detangling and smoothing ability. I left a bit in and my hair turned out perfect.

I have great luck with this product. Makes my thick 3a hair soft, and the curls are defined without being sticky or stiff. I don't rinse it out, I use it as a leave-in. Highly recommended.

This product has done something that no other product I've tried has done for me so far...it made my canopy smooth and moisturized (NO FRIZZ) after washing my hair with shampoo. It usually takes a couple of CWs for that to happen! Great deep treatment!

Unfortunately this product really weighed down my hair and it got overconditioned (tangled, crunchy ends, etc.) with continued use. I prefer Redken All Soft Heavy Cream for extreme weightless moisture as a treatment

Lo-o-o-o-ove this conditioner. Awesome detangler, makes my curls soft and my itchy scalp soothed. A bit heavy for summer, so in fall I find myself longing for the day when I finish up the summer bottle of leave-in so I can use this again.

Good conditioner, but did not work as well as I expected it too. Didn't care for the fragrance either.

A must have for summer hair! I used it as a leave in and it really held up against the Texas heat. Not oily or greasy, and I expereinced no build up with continued use.

I liked this product, but could not stand the smell. It made my hair very soft and silky. It's especially good to use before straightening your hair.

Yummy! Makes hair noticeably softer. I combine it with the less expensive Smooth Down Conditioner for daily use. Smells much better than All Soft.
