Today I am reviewing Fabindia’s Aloe Vera Protein Conditioner. I was actually looking for an avocado conditioner to match with my Fabindia avocado shampoo. As I couldn’t find it, I opted for this aloe vera conditioner. Aloe vera is such a magical plant that works wonder for skin and hair. I have normal wavy hair and right now its dandruff free. So, without much thoughts I picked this conditioner. Scroll further to know my experience on this conditioner.
Price and Quantity:
Rs.250 for 250 ml(247 g)
Product Description:
A mild everyday use conditioner, containing aloe vera extract and Vitamin E acetate that hydrate and soften the hair. It restores the natural moisture balance giving the hair a healthy sheen.
Wet hair and shampoo.Apply conditioner gently smoothing it over hair. Leave on for 2-3 minutes. Rinse off thoroughly. Patch test recommended before use. For external use only. Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Natural ingredients may cloud or separate this does not affect the quality or efficiency of the product. Fabindia is against animal testing.
My Take on the Product:
The conditioner comes in a simple white sleek bottle with a press button on the cap. Personally I feel the press button is better than the flip cap as flip cap might break easily or chip your nails. The conditioner is white coloured with a glossy finish. Though the bottle is strong, I doubt it would be difficult to carry during travel. The conditioner comes in standard size, I have not seen small or big bottle online.
The consistency is not very thick neither runny. I quite like it and its easier to spread on hair. I mainly focus on the lower end of hair as your root and hair near scalp doesn’t need conditioning.
After leaving it for couple of minutes, I washed it and to my surprise it was easier to rinse it off. Unlike Dove conditioners where you need tons of water to get rid of the product, this is easy to wash away. After towel drying I didn’t use any product to check the quality of my conditioner. My hair was much smoother and tangle free. The conditioner smell lingers on my hair for a day.This product very well serves the purpose of using a conditioner. Overall its a nice conditioner and I would stick to this for a longer time.
Why I like this Conditioner?:
Makes hair smooth
Pleasant fragrance
Goodness of aloe vera and vitamin E
Fabindia is against animal testing
Easy to rinse it off
Packaging is sturdy
Doesn’t weigh down my hair
Didn’t give me any hairfall
Why I don’t like this Conditioner?:
Does not add bounce
Bit pricey when compared to Dove, Garnier and Tresseme
MABH Rating: 4.1/5
So Do I Suggest?:
I do recommend this to all.This is not a magical product but this is surely a decent conditioner for everyday use.
Hello pretty ladies! I am here with a review for a conditioner today, one of my favorite ones at that. This is the Straight and Sleek Conditioner from Avon’s ‘Advanced Techniques’ range. They have many different shampoos and conditioners in this range for different needs but since I don’t like to experiment much with my shampoos, I decided to try out this particular conditioner. So let’s see how this product fared for me 🙂
Price and quantity:
Rs 199 for 200 ml, available on discount quite often though. I think I got mine for Rs 139.
Shelf life: 3 years
My Take on the Avon Advanced Techniques Straight and Sleek Conditioner:
The conditioner comes in a sleek grey opaque plastic packaging with a flip-open cap, the mouth facing downwards which would make life easier when it starts to finish. The consistency of the conditioner is a bit thick, just like other conditioners and there is nothing particularly distinctive about the fragrance either, though it is quite pleasant.
What makes this different is that the this conditioner does everything it claims to do – it makes the hair smooth and shiny, it minimizes split ends and frizz and above all – it makes your hair look straighter. Sure, your hair won’t look like it has been straightened or rebounded, but it does look considerably less wavy.
My recommendation is that you should use this conditioner according to what your hair type is and the result you would like to see. If you have relatively straight hair already, then you have two options: either apply the conditioner to just the ends of your hair (the tips) to smooth them out and minimize appearance of split ends. Or, you can apply it on the entire length of your hair to get that ‘straight and sleek’ look. I have straight hair naturally and when I apply this on practically the whole length of my hair, my hair looks a lot straighter – which is great for those sophisticated, sleek looks that you require for some outfits.
If you have frizzy hair, then too this is a great option because it tames frizz to quite an extent. In this case, you should definitely use it on at least the lower half length of your hair if not the entire length or wherever your hair tends to get frizzy like the ends of layers if you have a step/layered haircut. As with any other conditioner, try to not let this get on the roots because conditioners tend to weigh down your hair a bit and reduce volume.
What I like about this Conditioner?
Very reasonably priced for the quantity provided
Lives up to its claims
Convenient packaging
Does not take extraordinary effort to rinse off completely
Leaves hair soft, smooth and shiny
Reduces frizz
Pleasant fragrance
What I don’t like about this Conditioner?
Well if I have to be really picky I’d say that I wish it wasn’t available only through agents 🙁
MABH Rating: 5/5
Final word:
This is a great conditioner and it lives up to its claims. Moreover, for the price it is quite a steal as it’ll last you quite a while. I think girls with slightly frizzy hair especially will love this. It is definitely worth a try.
