Probably every lady has come across the fact that after washing her hair, it is simply impossible to untangle it. They become tough, nondescript and dry. The reason for this is precisely the shampoos. Even those products that do not contain lauryl sulfate or are enriched with vitamins, proteins and other nutrients have a rather merciless effect on the hair, because their main purpose is precisely purification.
Hair conditioners are the real rescue. While shampoo removes excess oil and other impurities, conditioner nourishes hair for smooth, manageable and shiny hair. And most importantly, after using the conditioner, hair is incredibly easy to comb, curl well and quickly fits into any hairstyle.
Probably, many have noticed such a product as conditioner shampoo on store shelves. Naturally, this is very convenient in the case when you have limited time or it is not possible to carry many bottles with you (for example, on a trip). But it is not recommended to use such funds on an ongoing basis. The fact is that in this case the conditioner is deposited not only on the hair, but also on the skin. This significantly speeds up the process of contamination, and can also lead to clogging of the pores.
What is the difference between conditioner and balm?
Many people equate balm and conditioner, but there is a significant difference between the two:
- conditioner is a means to protect hair, but the balm is also aimed at their nutrition and health;
- the conditioner is not applied to the roots so as not to weigh down the hairstyle, and it is also useful to rub the balm into the scalp;
- the air conditioner is an excellent antistatic agent, and the balm does not possess such properties;
- conditioners are often indelible, and among balms, such products are quite rare.
How to use the air conditioner?
When applying the conditioner, you must follow a number of mandatory rules:
- - try to avoid getting the product on the scalp, otherwise the hair will get dirty very quickly and lose its volume;
- - make sure that the product matches your hair type;
- - try not to use shampoos that dry your hair and skin, otherwise the conditioner will not bring the desired result;
- - the ideal option would be to use a set of products from one manufacturer.
Top 10
And now we present to you the TOP 10 hair conditioners, compiled on the basis of reviews studied on the Internet.
- Moisturizing conditioner MATRIX Total Results Moisture
The manufacturer of this product claims that after using it, the hair will be saturated with moisture, which will make it shiny and vibrant.
Customers note the incredibly delicate texture of the conditioner, which provides a comfortable application and quickly envelops the hair. In addition, the product gives the hair a pleasant, unobtrusive scent. Strands after use acquire shine and are very easy to comb. They do not get electrified or puffy. It is important that this conditioner is equally effective no matter which shampoo you use.
On the negative side, it is possible to note the high cost, which is not always justified by the results. So, the owners of hard and curly hair this product will not bring the desired shine, and combing will be alleviated only slightly.
- KeraSys Damage Care Repairing
This product is intended for dry and brittle hair. It is recommended to regularly apply to those ladies who often dry their hair with a hairdryer, and also curl and straighten the strands. It will also be useful for the care of colored hair.
It should be noted that the effect of this air conditioner is cumulative. This means that the visible result will be noticeable only after a few sessions. If you treat your hair regularly, you can expect the following results:
- - silk smoothness that does not disappear after the hair dries;
- - softness and elasticity;
- - the aesthetic appearance of the tips (even if they were severely damaged), as well as their protection from cutting;
- - suitable for long hair that is often difficult to detangle;
- - the hair becomes shiny.
Usually, it takes 1-2 minutes for the conditioner to work on the hair, but this remedy will require more endurance and patience. But the result will please you.
- Estel Curex Versus Winter
An excellent professional product. It makes hair more attractive, provides it with reliable protection from damage when styling with hot methods. The air conditioner is consumed very economically. It not only makes hair more pliable to combing, but also deeply nourishes it. It will become especially irreplaceable in cold weather, when the hair is highly electrified.
Of the shortcomings, it is worth noting the too thick consistency of the conditioner. Customers recommend storing the bottle upside down to make it easier to remove the product from it.
- Revitalizing conditioner Gliss kur TOTAL
This conditioner is just a lifesaver for dry hair. Its texture is incredibly light, thus maintaining the volume of the hair. At the same time, the product deeply nourishes the hair and saturates it with all the necessary nutrients. Already after the first application, you will notice a healthy shine and elasticity of the hair.
It is important that this conditioner can be used not only on wet, but also on dry hair. At the same time, it makes the brushing procedure easy and pleasant. Applying the product does not in any way affect the cleanliness of the hair and the volume of the hairstyle. Even if the ends are too dry and split, they will look more attractive after using conditioner. This tool has a fairly convenient spray shape. It is also important that it does not need to be washed off.
Of the shortcomings, it is worth noting an obsessive smell that does not disappear from the hair throughout the whole day. If you have long hair, then the bottle will be enough for you for a short while.
- Schwarzkopf Professional BC Bonacure Fiber Force
The highlight of this product is that by means of a patented technology, the keratin has been split into tiny particles, which penetrate into the hair structure much more easily. As a result, the curls become strong, shiny and elastic, as if they are not exposed to harmful factors on a daily basis.
Before using the conditioner, wash your hair and pat dry with a towel. Not noticing a visible result after the first application, you should not be upset, the effect of this remedy is cumulative. The second time around, the results will be much more pronounced.
A lasting effect can be achieved only after a month of continuous use of the conditioner. Patience will be rewarded with healthy shine, splendor, light volume, and noticeable thickening of the hairs. The disadvantage is that after using this product, the hair gets dirty too quickly.
- Conditioner for damaged hair Londa Professional Visible Repair
This product has been specially formulated for professional salon use. After applying it, even heavily damaged hair will be completely transformed. This product combines the properties of both a balm and a conditioner. It is thick enough, due to which a fairly economical consumption is provided.
The instructions for use of the conditioner indicate that it does not need to be washed off, but in this case you risk getting dirty hair without volume. Therefore, it is better to rinse them with water. In this case, you will get easy combing, softness, shine and elasticity. But, unfortunately, this tool does not possess antistatic properties.
- Spray antistatic Ollin Ice Cream
In winter, the problem of strong electrification of hair becomes urgent for almost everyone. For many, the only way out is to collect the hair in a bun (but this does not always help). An excellent solution to this problem can be a special antistatic spray. It makes hair manageable and elastic without weighing it down. This will allow you to demonstrate chic hair even in severe cold weather.
The duration of the effect depends on how badly damaged your hair is (on healthier hair, the result is noticeable much longer). In addition, if there is low humidity in the room, you should also not count on a long-term effect.
- Laminating conditioner "Golden Silk"
The Golden Silk conditioner is the ideal solution for fine hair. Enveloping each hair, the product transforms into an invisible film, which has an aesthetic and protective effect. As a result, curls look healthier and shinier, and are less prone to breakage and splitting.
The indisputable advantage of this tool is that it has an impressive volume, which means that it lasts for a long time. After the hair dries, there is no stickiness and combing is incredibly easy. Despite the lamination effect, the hair does not weigh down at all, but remains lush and voluminous. It is also worth noting the convenient shape of the spray and a pleasant light aroma, which, however, completely evaporates after drying.
Unfortunately, there were some drawbacks. So, the effect of lamination is almost invisible, especially if the hair is severely damaged. And if the product accidentally gets on the roots, the hair quickly becomes oily. Although the packaging does not play much, but, nevertheless, its poor design somewhat spoils the impression of the product.
- Shiseido tsubaki
This conditioner contains valuable camellia oil - a unique product of its kind. It promotes gentle hair care and full restoration in a short time. You should also pay attention to the presence of honey extract in the composition, which helps to straighten hair and gives it shine.
You don't have to wait too long for the effect. Already after the first application, an incredible smoothness is noted. In addition, the hair does not weigh down at all. The light combing effect lasts until the next wash. Thanks to this, the hair is less damaged.
After the conditioner dries, the hair will not be electrified and frizzy. A nice healthy shine will also delight you. It is worth noting the incredibly attractive aroma that will last on your hair until the next wash. Customers note that they constantly want to touch their curls, because they acquire incredible softness and lightness.
- Faberlic ETNObotanika
This is a conditioner balm, the peculiarity of which is that it "melts" when applied to the hair. Due to the presence in the composition of pomegranate and orchid extracts, as well as argan oil, hair is quickly restored and saturated with vitamins.
Hair after using this conditioner retains its original lightness. At the same time, they acquire an attractive shine, become smooth and elastic. Like other similar products, this product helps to facilitate hair detangling. And due to the saturation of the curls with moisture, they become less brittle and more resistant to damage.
Choosing a conditioner is just as important as choosing the right shampoo. It is he who is responsible for the attractive appearance of the hair. And a properly selected product can provide your curls with not only a cosmetic, but also a healing effect.
Hair balms are products that are often referred to as unnecessary excesses of a lady with short hair and without which the owners of long hair cannot live. How the hair will look after washing and drying depends not only and not so much on the correctly selected shampoo (to which, in fact, only two requirements can be made: to wash it out and not to irritate the scalp), but rather on the hair balm used.
In addition to moisturizing and nourishing long hair, hair balm also has a protective function. After shampooing under the influence of alkaline pH, the scales of the cuticle - the outer layer of the hair - are lifted, which makes the hair itself dull and fragile. Balms "smooth" them back and add a thin film to the surface of the hair that protects from external influences. It is she who retains moisture inside the hair and makes it easier to comb. Usually silicones create this film, but waxes, oils and other natural polymers can be used for this purpose in non-silicone balms.
The best balms for dry hair
Dry hair looks cleaner for longer and this is perhaps their only advantage. How much effort it takes to turn dull spiky strands into shiny smooth curls is known only to those who got this type of hair. Long hair is most often dry. The natural lubricant - sebum - is usually enough to cover only a few centimeters of hair at the roots. Provided, of course, regular washing. In addition, long hair is usually "older": if the hair grows on average by 1 cm per month, then the ends of the bob to the chin are about a year, and if the length is up to the shoulder blades and below, consider yourself. During this time, the effects of the external environment accumulate in one way or another, damaging the hair structure; in damaged hair they retain moisture and nutrients worse. This is why balms for this type of hair are often called "dry and damaged".

2 Natura Siberica "Protection and Nutrition"
Organic composition
Country Russia
Average price: 353 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.9
With Rhodiola rosea and cedar milk, this balm was one of the first lines from Natura Siberica, but still garners a lot of rave reviews, remaining one of the best. The product does not contain parabens, which many fear, but this is not its main advantage. In the composition of the balm, in addition to the already mentioned Rhodiola rosea, there are many extracts of other useful herbs: Japanese sophora, chamomile, thyme, Siberian fir. To nourish the hair are oils of Siberian fir, evening primrose, wheat germ, cedar milk. Hydrolyzed keratin restores the hair structure (ordinary keratin molecules are too large to "patch holes", so it is optimal to use its hydrolysates, upon receipt of which the keratin is split into smaller amino acid chains). Also added vitamins to improve hair structure.
- Hair balm and shampoo do not have to be in the same line. This is especially important for owners of long or colored hair: when oily skin the scalp remains dry. Shampoo is selected according to the condition of the scalp, balm - according to the condition of the hair.
- Hydrolyzed keratin balms are good for colored or damaged hair. If the hair is healthy in principle, these balms will have the opposite effect, turning them into tough and dry "straw".
- In summer, it is better to choose a balm with an ultraviolet filter: hair also needs protection from the sun.
- Owners of naughty fluffy hair do not turn away from balms with silicones: only they are capable of pacifying the "dandelion".
- Never apply the balm to the roots: step back at least 3-5 centimeters from the scalp.
- If any balm “kills the volume,” try applying and rinsing it off with your head tilted forward instead of back.

This brand is famous for its natural formulations of cosmetics. Hair care products are no exception. Balm with oat extract perfectly cares for dry and damaged curls.

Jojoba and coconut oils nourish, eliminate split ends by sealing the scales. The result is thick, silky hair. The product has a thick consistency, but when applied to the head, it seems to melt from the heat and is evenly distributed along the entire length. It is noted that after application the hair is easy to comb and looks more well-groomed. It is unlikely that the balm will be able to maintain the color of dyed hair well (for this it is better to purchase a tint preparation), but it will cope with dry and damaged hair perfectly.
The best conditioners for colored hair
Although dyed hair is most often dry, conventional care for dry hair may not always work for them. Colored hair is categorically contraindicated. oil masks, rapidly washing out the color. In addition to moisturizing, they definitely need substances that restore the protein structure - the basis of the hair - which is regularly damaged due to the harsh effects of chemical dyes. In care products for colored hair, there are often toning properties - in order to preserve the color longer, protecting it from the appearance of unwanted shades.

1 Davines Alchemic
The best color preserver
Country: Italy
Average price: 1 695 rubles.
Rating (2019): 5.0
This hair balm is available in several shades to maintain a silvery blond, golden, for red tones, copper, chocolate, tobacco. For desired effect the product is kept on the hair for 5-8 minutes. Judging by the reviews, the hair does not grease and is quite economical: for shoulder-length hair, there is enough volume with a hazelnut. This will partly atone for its relatively high price tag. Pleasant smell, consistency allows you to evenly distribute through the hair. After drying, the hair will retain its volume while remaining smooth and supple. Of the shortcomings, not too active moisturizing can be canceled, so the balm may not be suitable for ladies with dry hair.
The best economy class hair balms
The high price does not always guarantee high quality - many luxury hair care products do not justify the money spent on them at all. Likewise, many low-cost products provide excellent care. We have tried to collect in the rating economical hair balms that have the most positive reviews.
3 Agafia's thick balm
Affordable price
Country Russia
Average price: 93 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.5
Despite the fact that the name of this balm contains the words “to strengthen strength and growth”, you should not unconditionally believe them: as a rule, natural ingredients do not penetrate the hair follicles. Massage when rubbing the product into the scalp can have some indirect effect, but nothing more. If we discard the overestimated expectations, it turns out that the composition of the balm is quite interesting. 17 Siberian herbs contain vitamins, trace elements and other biologically active substances that improve hair condition. In addition, the balm contains Burr oil traditionally known for its beneficial effects on hair, pine sap.
Overall, the composition looks like the balm should work well for co-working. Of the negative properties, one can note an inconvenient lid without a dispenser. In addition, despite the general abundance of positive reviews, some owners of dry hair say that the product made them even drier. Considering that there really are no hydrolyzed proteins and amino acids in the composition, most likely, the balm really will not suit damaged hair that requires special care, but it will prove itself quite worthy as a natural care product, which, together with an abundance of positive reviews, allowed us to add it to the rating ...
2 Conditioning balm Clean Line "Regulating"
Ideal for oily hair
Country Russia
Average price: 79 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.6
There is a lot of talk about caring for dry hair, so it seems that oily hair does not need any treatment other than washing. In fact, of course, this is not the case. Just like dry, oily hair, you need a conditioner to protect it from external influences and make it easier to detangle. In addition, the right product is often able to restore the volume of hair prone to oily hair, which they are often deprived of.
The balm contains extracts of chamomile, calendula, sage and yarrow. Does not contain silicones, which are oily hair create excessive weight. The consistency of this product is quite light, the hair absorbs it well, without leaving a feeling of greasy. Many reviews say that the shampoo really regulates the secretion of sebum, so it turned out to lengthen the interval between washing your hair.
1 Revivor
Most economical
Country: Belarus
Average price: 130 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.7
This tool has become truly legendary. In the composition of mink fat and Coconut oil, lanolin, hydrolyzed collagen, nettle and aloe extracts. Despite the low price, the balm perfectly nourishes and moisturizes the hair. Among the shortcomings, one can note an inconvenient capacity, and the fact that in order to achieve the effect, the agent must be kept on the hair not for 3-5 minutes, as written in the instructions, but used as a mask: blot the hair with a towel, apply balm and leave for 15-20 minutes. Only then will the balm show itself in all its glory. But for a product worth a little more than a hundred rubles for a 450 ml can, these shortcomings, frankly, are forgivable. It occupies a place in our rating as the most economical hair balm.
The best tint balms for hair
Of course, modern hair dyes are relatively safe and do not require special skills to use, which allows many women to dye their hair at home. But with all their advantages, dyes are still not completely harmless to hair. In addition, they are not very suitable for those who like to frequently change their hair color to suit their mood. If it is relatively easy to make a brunette out of a blonde, then the reverse transformation will require a lot of tweaks. Tint balms come to the rescue of such ladies. They will not allow you to create a "radical black color" and do not have a bleaching effect, but nevertheless, they allow you to carry out a lot of experiments and easily eliminate the consequences of unsuccessful color solutions.
3 Tonic
The most popular balm
Country Russia
Average price: 109 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.5
Another legendary remedy. Appearing in the harsh nineties, this tint balm instantly became popular among young people. Fans were not embarrassed by dyed collars, or pillowcases that took on the shade of hair, or overdried strands. And, in general, those who consider this remedy to be the best had grounds for such an opinion. They are still there. Despite the disadvantages: the balm really requires care in handling no less than paint, and up to the first 1-2 washes it can paint bed linen (which, however, can be easily washed off), the product provides a bright and lasting color. A rich palette allows you to experiment endlessly.
True, the owners of discolored strands need to be careful when using this balm. If the tone disappears from the hair untouched by the clarifiers in 1-2 weeks, depending on their structure and the frequency of shampooing, then in discolored hair it literally eats in firmly, remaining on them for months. However, this effect also has back side: balm very effectively removes unwanted shades from colored hair, or maintains desired color... To do this, either mix it with 1 to 4 shampoo and wash your hair as usual, or dilute the product in water and rinse your hair. For all the undoubted advantages, Tonic rightfully takes its place in the ranking among the best.
2 Estel Solo ton
High durability
Country Russia
Average price: 109 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.6
Judging by the reviews of some ladies who did not guess with a shade, the balm is not completely washed off even after 20 head washes. Most, however, converge at 3-4 weeks, provided that they are washed every other day. Moreover, unlike Tonic, it paints strands that are not touched by chemical dyes and clarifiers better and more firmly. Therefore, before use, it is recommended not to be too lazy to make a test on a separate strand. The balm is quite thick, does not spread, which allows you to treat it like a hair dye, gently applying it to the strands with a brush. Does not dry hair, does not dye clothes, opinions differ about hands, most still prefer to use gloves.
1 Belita-Vitex Color Lux
Best caring properties
Country: Belarus
Average price: 122 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.7
Belarusian cosmetics are known for their excellent care properties combined with affordable prices. And this applies to the Color Lux tint balsam to the full. Regardless of the result of coloristic experiments. All reviews agree that the hair after using this balm becomes smooth, shiny. And this is not surprising, given the composition, which, in addition to pigments, includes shea and olive oils. Another undoubted plus of this tool: the coincidence of the obtained color with the declared one. For tint balms, the effect of which is often unpredictable, this is a huge advantage (an exception is hair dyed with henna, but this is a well-known property of henna, any dyes change color on it). Does not stain towels, bed linen and hands. Of the minuses, the unpleasant smell of the Soviet hairdressing salon is noted. But for its excellent care properties, the balm is justly included in the rating of the best products.
The best professional hair balms
A balm or conditioner is a must for hair care. It is usually selected to solve a specific problem: dryness, brittleness, curly curls, prolonged exposure to the sun, etc. Someone buys funds in a supermarket, and someone in specialized stores. What is the difference? Professional care is distinguished by the fact that the composition of such products is more concentrated, consumption is economical, and the result is achieved faster, so it is ideal for active and busy people. As practice shows, the funds fully pay off the funds spent.
3 Ollin Professional Care Restore Conditioner
Good result at an affordable price
Country Russia
Average price: 264 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.8
The Russian professional product for hair care, despite its availability, is in no way inferior in quality to its foreign counterparts. Useful components in the composition - vitamin B5 and proteins - make the curls shiny and well-groomed. They restore the structure of the hair, making it strong. The balm has a moisturizing and antistatic effect, which is good for the cold season when you need to wear hats. You no longer have to worry that your hairstyle will look like a "dandelion".
The humble design of the tube has a rich content inside. This is just the case when you do not need to choose "by clothes". An excellent budget option for those who cannot afford foreign counterparts. Customers note an excellent result after use, which instantly covers such a tiny and, probably, the only drawback as a thick consistency, which creates slight difficulties when squeezing out the product.
