I know this is long over due, but I'm back and am reviewing a new product I've tried twice now — Burt's Bees Hair Repair Shea & Grapefruit Deep Conditioner.
The product is 98% natural and for awhile now I've been looking for just the right product that I could deep condition with. Be mindful that I flip-flop on how often I deep condition, but try to keep it at once to twice a month (twice if I've really put my hair through some hell).
First the details:
Ingredients: water, cetrimonium bromide, cetearyl alcohol, sucrose laurate, glycerin, honey, butyrospermum parkii (shea butter), glucose, betaine, citrus grandis (grapefruit) seed extract, citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) peel oil, citrus medica limonum (lemon) peel oil, citrus tangerina (tangerine) peel oil, citrus aurantifolia (lime) oil, zingiber officinale (ginger) root extract, citrus reticulata (tangerine/petitgrain) leaf oil, acacia senegal gum, polysorbate 60, glucose oxidase, lactoperoxidase
According to Burt's Bees the featured ingredient in the deep conditioner is shea butter. The smell is extremely strong, with grapefruit being the dominant scent. The price is also a little high for my taste. For a 5 oz the price ranges from $7.99 to 8.99, if found at Targets, Walgreens or your local health food store. The only reason this bugs me is that depending on how thick your hair is, you may find yourself using an entire container of conditioner just to coat your hair. I was only able to use it twice and ended up cutting open the container with scissors to scoop every little bit out. Because there was so little left, I ended up mixing the conditioner with my Aubrey's Organic Honeysuckle Rose, so my opinion of the product is technically based after one use.
And unfortunately I couldn't find anything great or spectacular about this product. I wanted the deep conditioner to possibly be my gateway product to using the other Burt's Bees hair line products, but considering the price and what little I received, I just don't see that happening. Did I feel my hair become repaired, conditioned, softer or better? No, it simply seemed it did what any other deep conditioner could have done.
