Tester says: "I really like the smell of this deep conditioner; it's fresh and fruity but not overpowering. It only needs to stay in your hair for three to five minutes, so I used it most days. It made my hair soft and smell nice."
Available at Kiehl's stores and select Holt Renfrew stores across Canada; www.kiehls.com; 416.483.1335
7. The Body Shop Brazil Nut Moisture Mask, $14.50Tester says: "This product was easy to open and close in the shower. I liked that it was in a jar – I could scoop out the exact amount I needed quickly. It does take a bit of effort to use, so it didn't become part of my daily routine, but when I did use it I noticed instant results – my hair was softer and much shinier."
Available at The Body Shop stores and online at thebodyshop.ca
8. Matrix Biolage Hydrathérapie Cera-Repair Intense Ceramide Hydra Treatment, $19.95Tester says: "This conditioner smelled great – it was subtle and fresh. It was very easy to use, and I only need to use it every two weeks or so to see results. You leave the product on your hair for only a few minutes before rinsing, so it's not that time-consuming. My hair was noticeably shinier and glossier; the deep conditioner really saturated my hair and made it silky and soft. I felt like I just had a trip to the salon!"
Available at select salons; matrix.com or 1-888-935-1885
9. L'Oréal Paris Vive Pro Smooth-Intense Conditioning Treatment, $5.99Tester says: "This product is really nice and easy to use. It's not too heavy and rinses out fairly quickly. I have very straight hair and suffer from static cling in the winter – this conditioner helps control the dryness and flyaways. My hair is not as dry as it usually is in midwinter. I would definitely buy this."
Available at drugstores and mass market retailers
10. Aveda Sap Moss Nourishing Concentrate, $28
Tester says: "My hair is fine and straight and in fairly good condition – I rarely blow-dry it. So when it comes to deep conditioner, I don't want something that weighs my hair down. This pre-shampoo treatment does the trick. It gives my hair a moisture boost and helps tame winter flyaways without creating extra buildup. And best of all, it's super easy to use – just apply for a couple of minutes before you wash your hair."
