Essential Nuance Airy Conditioner Review

WHAT IS IT: Essential Nuance Airy Conditioner

THE PRODUCT(S):

Essential Nuance Airy Conditioner: Gives damaged and limp hair an airy soft and bouncy finish.

New formula with Cuticle Care Technology! 4 times more Cuticle Protection for smoother, tangle-free hair to the last 15cm of your hair. Also contains Cuticle Smoothing Essence, High Purity Honey and Shea Butter to repair, moisturize and for lasting shine!

The scent is nice, conditioner is easy to rinse off without too much fuss and hassle. But I find that the treatment version is much better than this conditioner.

VERDICT: What I personally like best is the scent of this conditioner. Like most typical conditioners, they all seemed to smell pretty much the same even if you had to use different conditioners to find one that actually smoothes your hair without making it feel greasy and heavy. But for this, it has this wonderful fruity and floral scent to it. So, if you are like me and like sniffing your products each time before using it, go right ahead. It's not a crime to do so, if the scent is really appealing to you and makes you want to keep using (and sniffing) repeatedly.

Honestly, after trying different hair conditioners and hair treatments, I personally really prefer the treatment versions as I only need to use it at least once or twice a week and each use can last for a few days. Even if I need to wash my hair everyday to keep it clean from grime, sebum, oil and sweat, the effects of treatments doesn't go away that fast. But for this conditioner which can be used on a daily basis, I found that I literally had to really use it daily to ensure my hair is smooth and tangle-free.

And even if I used the treatment version at least twice a week, I somehow find that if I use it alongside with this conditioner, it seems to nullify the effects from the treatment. I'm not sure if it's just me, but seriously, having to use copious amount of conditioner on your hair for daily washing can really end up making my hair feels too light to the point where it feels limp and heavy. With long hair, it just simply goes from supposedly airy and bouncy to somewhat weighty.

I tend to use conditioner mostly towards the last 15cm to 20cm of my hair, since that part of my hair doesn't come into direct contact from my scalp which sebum and sweat collected, it can literally make combing/brushing out my hair a chore to do daily. And so far, I noticed that it's only the last 10cm or so of my hair that gets tangled up, despite using this conditioner on a daily basis. And yet I don't have this problem at all when I am using the treatment version. Funny and weird how treatment and conditioner seems to work differently on my hair, depending on how much or how often I have to use them.

And granted, no sight of airy and bouncy hair yet. But then, Singapore is a hot and humid country, so it's rather hard to expect that when we are sweating buckets from our scalp. Yes, our scalp sweats more easily than the rest of our body. I've just been out in the sun this early afternoon, and while I didn't sweat that much. I found my hair getting soaked with sweat already. So, there goes the airy and bouncy feeling I am supposed to feel in and on my hair.

VERDICT: ✓✓

WHAT I THINK: I'm definitely sticking back to the treatment version as I don't need to use it daily, but the effects last longer than the conditioner.

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: As this product has been "revamped" for a while now, I believe, so I doubt you can get to sample it at departmental stores. However, the plus point is that, you can open the cap and take a whiff out of the scent and decide. Sometimes, certain hair treatment/conditioner looks good to use, but the scent is either awful or just somewhat pleasant. This, I fell in love with it due to the scent and the fact that it isn't making my back nor hair feel greasy/oily after use.
