Pure Volume Conditioner

Decent 3.9 / 5

A conditioning product with a good range of emollients and humectants, suitable for general hair conditioning. The inclusion of fragrance ingredients is a notable limitation for sensitive individuals. The 'volume' claim is supported by the choice of conditioning agents, but individual results may vary.

About this product

This is a conditioner formulated to provide volume. It contains a blend of emollients, humectants, and conditioning agents. The formula includes coconut water and oil, trehalose, and various fatty alcohols and esters for conditioning and moisture. It also features lactic and glycolic acids, and a preservative system including benzyl alcohol, sodium benzoate, and potassium sorbate. The product is fragranced with a blend of essential oils and aroma compounds.

Good signs
  • Contains a variety of emollients and conditioning agents that can help to smooth hair, reduce frizz, and improve manageability.
  • Includes humectants like glycerin and trehalose, which can attract and retain moisture in the hair.
  • Features lactic and glycolic acids, which are alpha hydroxy acids that can provide mild exfoliation to the scalp and potentially improve hair shine.
  • Contains tocopherol (Vitamin E), an antioxidant that can help protect hair from environmental damage.
  • Includes a blend of fatty alcohols and esters that contribute to hair conditioning without necessarily weighing it down, supporting the 'volume' claim.
Watch-outs
  • Contains multiple fragrance ingredients (Parfum, Limonene, Vanillin, Citrus Aurantium Peel Oil) which are common sensitizers and can cause irritation or allergic reactions in individuals with fragrance sensitivities.
  • The presence of alpha hydroxy acids (lactic acid, glycolic acid) in a rinse-off product may offer limited benefits for scalp exfoliation or hair treatment due to short contact time.
  • The 'Pure Volume' claim is supported by conditioning agents that aim not to weigh hair down, but the actual volumizing effect can vary greatly depending on hair type and application.
Best for
  • Individuals seeking a conditioner to improve hair smoothness and manageability.
  • Hair types that benefit from lightweight conditioning.
  • Those looking for a conditioner with some moisturizing properties.
  • All hair types, particularly those prone to being weighed down by heavy conditioners.
How to use it
  • Apply to wet hair after shampooing, focusing on mid-lengths and ends. Rinse thoroughly.
  • Individuals with sensitive scalps or fragrance allergies should perform a patch test before full application.
