I noticed my hair felt really greasy wherever I put this product on. At first I thought it was from hair styling products then I realized it was this. It also makes my hair clump up at the ends. It also didn't detangle at all, I prefer biolage to this because I had. to use half the amount to
detangle. I wouldn't buy this
again it's cheap crap.

Bought the brunette version because it seemed pretty well reviewed and was 1/2 price at Superdrug for 900ml. Seemed like a bargain to me. Packaging is nothing special, but adequate. I use a lot of conditioner on the ends of my hair pretty much daily. The smell is fine, not unpleasant. The texture is quite good. Neither too thin nor too thick. Leaves my hair soft, manageable and not too weighed down. Works well as a basic everyday conditioner. It's not a wonder product, but it's cheap (at half price) and I am happy with it. Would buy again when on sale. Wouldn't pay full price for it. I like it and prefer it to Pantene conditioner.

n.b. I try to rotate shampoo and conditioner frequently e.g. alternate each day.

I love this conditioner (the shampoo that goes with it as well)! Had been using it for at least 2-3 years. It always made my hair silky soft and it gave my hair a healthy shine. Made it incredibly easy to untangle and tame my curly hair as well.

Unfortunately, it's been months since I've seen this product in stores. I couldn't find it anywhere so I tried TRESemme's Color Revitalize, but it was absolutely horrid. I really hope this product hasn't been discontinued as it's one of my favorite things in the world. It would be a shame if I could never get my hands on one of these babies again.

I did not really care for this conditioner. I feel like it was very mediocre in doing anything... almost like I put body lotion on my hair in place of this stuff. Will not buy again and def do not recommend :/

I love this stuff. I've used Tresemme for about 5 years now and love the Color Thrive for Brunettes (and the shampoo version of it too). Great stuff! Never fades my haircolor and great to use in between washings (I only wash my hair every other day. The days in between I put this conditioner in for 5 minutes). Love it!!

I found this product at Dave's Supermarket on the clearance rack in the big Tresemme bottles (like the big black ones they have been selling for decades.....) the shampoo and conditioner, the color thrive for blondes. I paid 2.99 for each. I was so excited because I had recently highlighted by hair and I wanted to keep the highlights the rich golden and beige blonds so I was told to buy a shampoo designed to do so, and mostly to keep them from turning brassy!!! Im a brunette with lots of red undertones. So after about 2 weeks of usage slowly i realized all of my hair was turning blond!!!! When i started using this product, it was a light/medium chestnutty brown with multitoned blond/brown highlights. However all of the hair was turning lighter and lighter......................i was not happy with that at all!!! I wanted the brown to stay brown and the blond to stay blond!!! I am in desperate search of a shampoo to tone keep the highlights as they are, no fading and no brassiness!!! until my quest is fullfilled.......ill be searching.

For a drugstore brand I am quite fond of the Brunette & Red conditioner. I dye my hair a red color and this conditioner has worked pretty good. I keep TRESemme in rotations of shampoo/conditioners. One downside was how much the shampoo smells much better than the conditioner.

This is the only conditioner I use now, except for using the conditioner that comes with my hair dye, which I use once a week. I have been using this for about 3 years, and prior to that, I would seldom purchase the same conditioner twice. It does not weigh my hair down like most conditioners. Leaves it nice and silky and easy to comb. I also use the matching shampoo, and the two of them together have made a definite difference in how long my hair color looks good.

I have dark brown colored hair, and use this in the brunette/red formula. I recommend this for those who color their hair.

The price is wonderful, too. I usually pay under $5 a bottle for it, and it is a good sized bottle.

I bought this with the shampoo for blonde hair. I didn't really see any difference in boosting my blonde highlights, but I think they have lasted longer. The conditioner is okay, it doesn't make my hair oily, but it also doesn't leave it feeling very silky. The packaging makes it kind of hard to squeeze the thick conditioner out of the bottle. I have to say though that the bottle is HUGE for very little money, so I'll probably continue using it until it runs out. Overall, it doesn't seem to do a lot for my color and isn't that great as a conditioner, so I probably won't buy again.

I used this when I had dyed chocolate brown hair. I guess it worked pretty well at first, although the shampoo was stripping and the conditioner was so full of crap it weighed my hair down and actually made it fall out. I lost so much in the shower, on the pillowcase... nearly everywhere!


Since then I've bleached my hair 2 times and dyed/toned platinum even more. I'm back closer to my natural, haven't cut anything off and my hair is still a lot healthier than it was when I used this!


Maybe this just didn't work for me, so I gave it to my mom's friend and she says she likes it. Although I see her every couple of weeks and her hair just looks horrible!


(I gave it two lippies because I liked what it did for my hair the very first time, and also the concept + price)


NEVER BUY THIS!!!

Nice conditioner. To be honest I haven't noticed anything regarding the vibrancy of my colour, and it doesn't do really deep conditioning, but it does leave hair soft. Good price but probably won't repurchase.

Recently went very blonde and wanted to get a product that would preserve my color w/o breaking the bank. Picked up Color Thrive Conditioner for Blondes. LOVE this! Aside from using as a regular conditioner, this works beautifully as a leave-in hair creme as well. Conditioner is very thick and my hair feels smooth as silk. Also product gives a nice boost to color.

Additionally, for those who color treat, another good way of preserving your color is by limiting your shampooing. Do this by conditioner only cleansing. Being I have very dry hair this works great for me.

Also switched to this when I switched shampoos and I still use it 'till this day! Great purchase and overall keeps my hair naturally silky smooth :) Also extends the color of my color-treated hair... I think it's due to using both products!

My hair is really oily and this product seem didn't seem to help. This may be a good choice for someone with very dry hair or African-American hair. My color faided just as fast as it would with any shampoo. I only used it because it isn't tested on animals but I have now switched to Bath and Body Works shampoos and Conditioners.

Their products amaze me,they are so cheap, but just as effective as those ultra expensive ones. I love this product, it works very well for me, I color my hair this helps it to stop changing color and turning red.

I used the shampoo, conditioner and cream a while back when I got my hair colored a darker shade of brown. I was impressed at how this really prolonged the richness of my color; nothing has ever matched up to this for me. Next time I color, I will definitely be using this again.

I bought this con for $1.99 at Walgreen while I was in LA for a week to just get by and fell in love with it instantly. I've tried just about any high end cons/treatments and this really works better than any of em! I don't know whether it makes hair dyes last longer though. I have a fine damaged (from perm) curly hair and this works for me!!!

I purchased a huge bottle of Color Thrive(blonde) conditioner for 5CDN. I have often been curious about Tresemme and I am glad that I picked this up. I have fine, colour-treated blonde hair and was looking for a moisturizing conditioner that didn't weigh my hair down and left is soft and manageable. Light scent and creamy. Does not appear to strip/fade my colour. Works wonderfully in conjuction by using Redken Blonde Glam Pure Pearl and Color Thrive after(my secret to keeping the nasty brassiness away). Great deal and I recommend!

I'm usually not a fan of TRESemme's shampoos and conditioners, but I tried several times and I'm impressed. It didn't weight my hair down at all, I felt like I didn't have any conditioner on in the shower but when I rinsed out, it made my hair really smooth without me having to finger comb it through, so I guess it's really working. My hair color didn't get worse or better, so I suppose it just maintains the color, not improve it in any dramatic way. The smell is nice but kind on the synthetic side, but definetely bareable. For a product so cheap, it surprisingly delivers great results.

I recently colored my hair a darker brown. My experience with brown haircolor in the past is that it fades VERY quickly and doesn't keep that rich, deep tone after 2-3 shampoos. So, I decided to try the Color Thrive Shampoo and Conditioner this time. I also bought the Color Thrive Daily Color Lock-In Spray. The products work in conjunction with each other, so I'm basically reviewing the whole "routine".

Right after coloring my hair and rinsing out the dye, I towel-dried my hair and immediately applied the Daily Color Lock-In Spray (it says on the bottle to apply after coloring and leave in for 24 hours before shampooing). I sprayed it all over my hair and combed it through, then dried and styled my hair as usual.

The following day, I washed my hair with the Color Thrive Shampoo and Conditioner. I was skeptical because in the past, I've noticed major color loss in the first washing after coloring my hair with ANY brown color. After towel-drying my hair, I applied the Daily Color Lock-In Spray again, then dried and styled my hair as usual.

To my surprise, this stuff works! I didn't experience any color loss and my hair color is just as rich as the day I colored it!

I've followed this routine for three washings now, and I've still experienced no color loss. So far, this system is working well!! YAY!!!
