Best Conditioner for Damaged Hair
Winner: OGX Damage Remedy + Cococnut Miracle Oil Conditioner
An ultra rich treat for rough, damage hair that harnesses the power of nourishing ingredients coconut oil, vanilla bean extract and Tiare flower essence. It really is softness and smoothness in a bottle.
Best Hydrating Conditioner
Winner: Kérastase Nutritive Lait Vital
Enriched with glucose proteins and a moisturising complex to soften from root to tip, your hair will also be protected against future dryness with this super softening conditioner.
Best Conditioner for Afro Hair
Winner: Oribe Moisture and Control Deep Treatment Masque
Curls are notoriously prone to dryness, so the fact that this mask is jam-packed with nourishing butters and oils makes it a great match for curls craving moisture and definition. Sealing cuticles and split ends for smoother, shinier and healthier-looking hair.
Best Smoothing Conditioner
Winner: Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Moisture
Classics are classics for a reason, which is why Aussie's 3 Minute Miracle is known as one of the best in the business, so it's no surprise it won over our judges. The Australian Macadamia Nut Oil-enriched formula is the perfect pair for thirsty and frizzy strands – and that signature scent is both nostalgic and delicious.
Best Natural Ingredient Conditioner
Winner: Tabitha James Kraan Clean Conditioner - Amber Rose
This deeply moisturising conditioner helps to keep your hair soft and shiny with the added benefit of being made with 100% natural and 85% organic ingredients. You'll be won over by that, and the scent of patchouli, rose, Ylang Ylang, neroli and cedarwood.
Best Scalp Treatment
Winner: Living Proof Restore Dry Scalp Treatment
A hair treatment that doesn't need rinsing is already a win in our eyes. But this clever little bottle delivers instant itch relief and hydration to your scalp, thanks to its hyaluronic acid formula and microbiome-balancing vitamin B3 – it's fast absorbing, lightweight and leave-in. Dry flakes, be gone.
Best Intensive Hair Mask
Winner: Garnier Ultimate Blends Hair Food Banana 3-in-1 Dry Hair Mask Treatment
Both a treatment mask and leave-in conditioner, this 3-in-1 mask ticks all the boxes. For a deep treatment, leave on for three minutes to work its magic, or apply a very small amount to the mid-lengths and ends of your hair and leave to soak in. Think super soft hair with a delicious banana scent.
Ready to slather these on your mane?
One thing's for sure, 2020 is going to be a good hair year with this lot on the scene.
