Review of L'Oreal Everstrong Hydrate Conditioner

I never buy the same conditioner twice, unless I really love it. I only have a handful of conditioners that I will buy on a continuous basis. After returning home from a vacation where I was swimming around in high salt content seas, I knew that once I got home I would need to really focus on bringing my hair back to its natural shiny self. The sun damage was also really noticeable.

While browsing around at my local Target I found a new collection of hair care products from L'Oreal. Seeing that L'Oreal rarely disappoints me, I went ahead and bought the L'Oreal Everstrong Hydrate Conditioner.

The conditioner itself came in an 8.5 ounce minty polished green squeeze tube. The tube itself is pretty, and gives off this high quality salon vibe, which L'Oreal is known for.

I popped the click top up, and tried to take in a sniff of the scent. More recently I have grown very tired of the same fresh, clean, laundry scent that so many conditioners give off. Instead I was greeted with an herbal aromatherapy like scent, of rosemary and mint, and it was wonderful. A lean green scent, and I hoped that the scent would stick around in my hair.

My Use:
 
After shampooing with my usual brand of shampoo, I went ahead and squeezed some of L'Oreal Everstrong Hydrate Conditioner into my palm, and worked it into my wet hair.

The conditioners consistency is semi thick, but not so thick as to where mending it through my locks was hard. In fact it was easy, and a small amount went a long way, so I was happy about that, considering the fact that 8.5 ounces is not a whole lot of conditioner, especially for my longer/thicker hair type.

The scent flooded the bathroom, and that was a nice little extra positive. The mint tingles but ever so slightly. I like conditioners with the tingle sensation because it is refreshing and cooling, especially on hotter, humid summer days, which have already began to spring up.

I let the conditioner sit for around 5 minutes till I rinsed.

While rinsing, I already knew that this conditioner had preformed some kind of wonderful, because my hair felt so soft, and so slick as I washed out the formula.

I hoped that my hair would dry as nice as it felt wet. As the hair dried it was left shiny, silky, but with a ton of additional volume; considering how thick and volumized my hair is naturally I was not too thrilled with the extra oomph.

The scent also did not remain.

Overall:
 
This conditioner would be perfect for women looking to add some healthy shine, and volume to their hair. However if you have thick hair, forget about it. I had to double up the time I usually spend styling my hair, which was a pain in the butt.
