These Drugstore Conditioners Are a Good Hair Day in a Bottle

Nexxus is known for its damage control, and this conditioner will help heal yours no matter if it was caused by color, treatments, or too much heat styling. It restores moisture to the hair and improves its resilience.

The structure of our hair is made up of 90% protein, which is why this is infused with the brand’s exclusive ProteinFusion, including keratin protein and black rice, to deeply nourish, leaving hair silky smooth. Even severely damaged hair will be re-hydrated and detangled. 

This magical multitasker does everything from restoring damaged hair to bringing back shine to quenching thirsty strands to leaving hair super soft. The touchability and sheen come courtesy of the infusion of vitamin E. The conditioner works on all hair types, and since the formula is lightweight, it won’t weigh down fine strands.

Curly hair has a tendency to get dry easily, so look for a conditioner with extra hydration to nourish the hair shaft. This pick from Shea Moisture is designed for thirsty strands and made with natural and organic ingredients, including shea butter, honey, African rock fig and baobab oils. They work together to soften, detangle, add shine, and deeply condition. Meanwhile, anti-inflammatory manuka honey soothes the scalp and improves the moisture barrier, while mafura oil’s oleic acid naturally restores oil.

Marula oil is a trendy hair ingredient right now for good reason. Packed with antioxidants, nutrients, fatty acids, and minerals, it has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties to keep the scalp healthy and boost growth, plus it protects against environmental damage. Dove’s Smoothing Ritual Marula Oil Conditioner puts the powerhouse ingredient at its center, along with baobab to nourish hair. They team up together for impressive hydration, frizz-fighting, and smoothing benefits.

When you want mega moisture, turn to coconut milk. This gentle, sulfate-free conditioner from OGX is packed with the stuff. The formula also contains coconut oils for added hydration, as well as whipped egg white proteins to repair damaged hair and strengthen it. Bonus: Like anything coconut, its scent will transport you to a tropical vacation.

This contains antioxidants to boost hair health, ceramides to repair damaged hair fibers, and UV filters to guard hair color from fading. The final touch is that it can seal in color for up to 30 days.
