For reference, I am an African American female with mid-back length hair that is wavy in places, curly (3b) in others, and very thick with a tendency to frizz. My son has gorgeous corkscrew curls that are dry as sandpaper, even after intense moisturizing. After comparing ingredients between this and the White Camelia Conditioner, I decided on the Honeysuckle Rose to try as a leave-in for both myself and my son. It gave good results for me as a leave-in when I used it under virgin coconut oil for a wash-n-go. But on my sons dry-as-a-bone corkscrews, it worked wonders as a leave-in, giving him moist shine and softness that lasted just about all day. After co-washing his hair with Suave Naturals conditioner, I apply about a quarter sized amount of Honeysuckle Rose Conditioner to his hair while still damp. Works wonderfully!

I absolutely love this conditioner. So far its my favorite one from the Aubrey Organics line (though I have others on order to try). Aubrey Organics is completely natural - unlike other brands who may claim to be natural and/or organic (but somehow still manage to sneak the icky chemicals in) - so that alone makes this an awesome product for someone who's concerned about what their beauty products are made from. And on top of that, after only a few days of consistent use, my hair is softer and silkier than with any other product I've tried. The smell is a little strong, but fades to a nice subdued floral scent after the hair dries. I've gotten many compliments on my hair since I've gone back to using Aubrey Organics. I've spent a few years trying out all the "natural" brands to find the perfect line for my hip length hair...again, of all those supposedly natural brands - Aubrey's seems to be the only one that really is purely natural, and on top of that, has been the best for my hair.
It's extremely well worth the price!

I use only two conditioners, one is GPB from this same line and the other is this one, the Honeysuckle Rose. With these two I dont need to use anything else. I use the Honeysuckle Rose as my daily conditioner and the GPB as a hair treatment. I apply the conditioner and let it sit on my hair while I shower. After that I comb out my hair and rinse, voila I'm done and my hair is soft and moisterized.

I am concerned about parabens and chemicals so I use this conditioner as a substitute for many things in the shower. I use this instead of shaving creams always, my legs, and arm pits are grateful. I am big on exfoliating and in winter after I shower, I add baking soda to the Honeysuckle Rose and apply it all over my body in a circular motion (paying attention to elbows, knees, hands, and feet) then do my final rinse. I do this once a week and I follow with shea butter or Extra Virgin Olive oil and this keeps my extra dry winter skin super soft, without chemicals and parabens. And it smells great, so no need for body sprays afterwards.

Hope this helps.

I really love this stuff. I have curly (type 3b for those who hairtype). I do not use silicones, and my hair is protein sensitive. it is hard to find an effective conditioner that is rich, thick and free of both silicones and proteins. This stuff works wonders. It tames my curls and quenches their thirst. No buildup from silicones, no dryness from proteins. Lovely.

This product is wonderful for black hair, especially 4b hair that is thick and dry. When I have let my hair get so dry that it feels like straw this product brings it back to life...you will not regret this product if you have 4b hair. I have been looking for a conditioner for a long long time. This is it. It is expensive but all of the other conditioners are a waste of money.

I want people to realize 2 things :) -- First, sadly, if your hair is already reeeeaally damaged, no product will fix it. You're better off starting over with brand new healthy strands. This leads me to my second point, the average conditioner is loaded with synthtic oils and silicones that coat your hair shaft, making it appear magically softer, giving it more "slip" and a false sense of moisture retention. It's like someone with really bad skin layering on MAC makeup everyday rather than addressing their skin issues.... Then when you wash it all off, its back to damage city again. The gunk in conditioners that sticks to your hair does more harm than good in the long run! Please, please do your research if you are depending on a hair product *alone* to give you manageable hair...

Anywho, I love Aubrey's conditioners. This one is great!! I have 4a/b hair with some odd 3c in the back and I have found that Aubrey coconut fatty based conditioners are super duper moisturizing. I use this one on dry hair. I slather it on and let it sit for about 20 minutes, then I rinse it out and wash or co-wash in the shower. It makes my hair sooooo soft and tangle free. I also use the GBP conditioner in the same manner, which I love even more.

I believe u should TRY a product before posting a review about it, and AVOID giving 1 star reviews based on the Smell of the product.This conditioner is amazing !It made my hair supple ,incredibly soft and shiny ,it has a thick consistency ,it can be applied smoothly from root to end ,it s extremely noushing yet not heavy or greasy .I have fine hair and this is the best conditioner i ve used so far ..and i ve tried many ... 2thumbs up!

Curl type: Even blend of thick 3c and 4a with some wavy bits. African textured, transitioning with 50% natural, 50% relaxed, mid-back length hair. Hair texture: Fine to medium-coarse, highly porous hair (does not hold moisture well).

Let me first say that I was initially put off by the price of the product. I bought it at a local vitamin store for around the same price as Amazon. Since, I'm transitioning (going from relaxed to natural hair), I figured that I would try to be as organic as possible--this conditioner certainly fits the bill! It's so thick in consistency that I could not follow the directions to "shake well", but this was a good thing for me because I was seeking something somewhat "heavy" for my thirsty curls and damaged relaxed hair.

I normally co-wash ("wash" hair with conditioner only), so a condtioner this thick is perfect for my thick hair. I rinsed my hair and applied a good amount of the conditioner from root to tip and I let it sit for about 5 minutes. Upon rinsing out the conditoner, I immediately noticed the slip that it gave my hair. My hair was also VERY easy to detangle with my fingers. The smell was quite strong, but not harsh in my opinion--very floral though. Once my hair dried it was noticeably softer than it normally is.

Though the results were great from my first two trials of rinsing the product, I found that my highly porous hair actually benefits more from this conditioner when I apply a vegetable glycerin and water (1:4 spray bottle) mix to dampen my dry hair and use the Aubrey Organics as a leave-in. I tried it this way because I was looking to weigh my hair down with moisture and to my surprise it worked! The instructions state that you can apply the product to dry hair as well. It has been 3 days and my hair is super soft, slightly weighted (like I wanted) and uber moisturized! My hair is even shiny, something that my natural hair somewhat lacks ordinarily. This is the hydration that my hair has been waiting for!!! My curls have better "hang", less poof and more shine and my edges are easily smoothed now. It does not get any better than this for me, so I highly recommend this product even over Giovanni, Suave Naturals, etc.

Thank you Aubrey Organics!!!

I am in love with this conditioner! I used it for the first time yesterday and was amazed. I am a Black woman with thick type 4a/b hair that is prone to dryness, brittleness and breakage. I have also been transitioning to natural hair over the last few months. In the past, with other shampoos and conditioners, my hair would feel soft while it was wet and for a little while after it air-dried but would soon go back to being hard and dry. With AO Honeysuckle Rose Conditoner (and the shampoo-I bought both) I noticed a difference immediately. Sure, it was soft while wet, as per usual, but it was a different kind of softness. And it STAYED soft as it dried. And now 24 hrs later it's STILL soft! I never had that happen before. The super thick formula is like ambrosia to my poor moisture-starved hair. My hair moves, I can get my fingers easily through my tightly coiled curls and I love the light floral scent. I'm going to try using it as a leave-in conditioner next. And definitely deep condition with an oil (coconut, shea butter, olive, etc) and see what difference that makes. And I'm DEFINITELY buying more.

African American Natural 4A/B hair. I've been looking for a conditioner that actually penatrates my hair shaft and makes my hair stronger, this does. I follow the deep conditioning directions except, I sit under a hooded dryer for 10 mins (hair in plastic cap). No, this may not be the best detangler. This conditioner does not make my hair super soft like Giovanni Smooth as Silk but, it strenghtens my hair which prevents breakage and that's what I'm looking for. I've compared shed hair pre Aubrey Organics to post Aubrey Organics shed hair, the post hair is notably stronger. I deep condition my hair as stated above, shampoo, and then apply Giovanni Smooth as Silk mixed with Aubrey Organics for 5 mins, to give me that smooth finish. *****Important note, rinse your hair with cold water to close up the hair cuticle.
