I love brazil nut hair moisture mask but they discontinued it I have very curly hair and it was the only thing that made it silky. I put together a petition to bring it back so if you guys want it back please or would love to try it click link below and sign my petition thanks a lot.

i am again sorry TBS because i support your "no animal testing" policy. i loveeeed the smell of this product but unfortunately did not see any result to my frizzy hair. i tried it both to wet and dry hair and i can say that it made my hair more frizzy. but i must indicate that, i do not know any product that makes my hair less frizzy. i even tried kerastase shampoo and mask. so i should not expect a miracle from this product. i will return to Watsons Bouncy Cream (in purple package).

I don't like this conditioner :( I had a 60ml deluxe sample size of this product. This is for dry, damaged and chemically treated hair. As stated on the bottle, 'An extra-rich, creamy conditioner containing Brazil nut oil, to leave hair smooth, soft, shiny and manageable. Contains Brazil nut oil from the Amazon region.' This is opaque, and I realized that this doesn't leave my hair as soft as other conditioners. It does leave my hair less tangled as compared to occasions when I just use the Brazil Nut Shampoo alone, but this only left my hair soft for a day. I realized that this does not spread as easily in the shower, and I have to use quite a lot to cover all parts of my hair. Hence, this sample does not last me long even though I am rather frugal with the usage of my cosmetics and skincare. I have this shampoo too, and even after shampoo, contiditioner, and my Sebastian Potion 9, my hair could not be straightened even when I blow dry my hair. This never happened with any of my other shampoos and conditioners even though I mix brands which works for me. I just find this strange. I also find the smell of this conditioner to be rather odd. I have no idea what brazil nut smells like, but this smells like a mixture of macademia nuts and Chuan Bei Pi Pa Gao (TCM for sore throat). It was just odd, and to put the least, unpleasant. I actually had this from some time back, and chucked it to the back of my drawer as I don't like it, but recently dug it out as I am trying to clear my half-used products. Even though I don't like this, I am looking forward to using it up (but not generously as I don't like wastage), and recycling the bottles at The Body Shop. There are many better conditioners on the market as compared to this, so I don't recommend this to anybody who wants a conditioner for dry, damaged or chemically treated hair, and will not be repurchasing this again :)

The Brazil Nut line doesn't seem to work for me. The salesperson said this would be best for my straightening-perm and coloured damaged hair. Did nothing. Just like some of the other reviewers here, I have to agree-- I think it actually dried out my hair instead. The conditioner was difficult to work through my hair. Smell was nice, though, but really, that's all I seem to get from Body Shop products.

I found that this conditioner made my hair feel like straw. I think they used to have a banana one that did the same thing.

my bottle ran out and they didn't have it when i went back. i used this as a deep conditioner and it definitely helped soften my very thick, coarse hair. however, i had to use other conditioners afterwards anyway. and in wintertime...forget about it. this is a good warm weather/humidity product.
but i'm reveiwing this product mainly because what i miss most is the smell. so calming.... i'd buy it again not because it worked any magic, but because the smell just allowed me to chill out in the shower. i have no idea what "flowery" or "overpowering" scent other viewers experienced. it smells like a less-sweet, slightly less subtle cocoa butter.

i thought this conditioner was great i like the body shop products and i have real dry hair that i straighten 3/4 times a week so i was well excited about trying this. i wasn't too sure on the smell in the bottle it's not like the usual heavily fragranced stuff really natural but it smells really subtle and great on your hair. it's really moisturisihng i can see an improvement in my hair after a couple of uses i will deff repurchase this is my HG. i bought this with matching shampoo and brazil nut moisture mask. i'd reccommend using these together for the best results. this is a great product!!

I really wanted to like this product. I really wanted to like all of The Body Shop hair products. I like the fact that they don't test on animals and I love many of there products. HOWEVE this conditioner was supposed to be moisturizing and it honestly felt like I was not using conditioner at all. My hair was so very dry while using it. The smell was ok but this product did not provide the moisture my hair needs.

I purchased a travel size of the Brazilnut shampoo and conditioner and also the pre-shampoo mask. I love the way my thick/coarse/dry hair responds to it. I will purchase the regular size next time.

This is one of the worst conditioners I've tried! It made my tangle and didn't give any shine. although i rinsed for ages it still felt like I hade product residue in my hair afterwards. Waste of money.

The worst TBS hair product ever. It contains such a high concentration of alcohol & parfum, 2nd & 4th on the list respectively that morefrizzies started appearing on my already frizzy hair once it dried. I don't care for the ultra-strong flowery scent either, & it isn't at all reasonably priced unless on discount.The only thing worth mentioning was that the brazil nut in it was really moisturizing, but I advise you-- stay far far away for this...

I did a DIY home bleach job on my asian black hair to get platinium streaks and my hair was paying for it weeks after. I find that using this conditioner has really improved matters. It smells really good and quite effective. A good product. Have repurchased and will repurchase

I got the Brazil Nut Shampoo/Conditioner as a gift, and I love it. My hair is very fine, thin, and damaged - this combo has really worked wonders on it. Doesn't weigh my hair down, moisturizes and detangles it, leaves it shiny and feeling thicker. I've tried a lot of hair products, and this is by far the best. If you care alot about your hair, buy this, the extra few bucks are worth it. I took one lipstick off for the smell - it doesn't smell nutty to me, more floral which I don't like, and it's bloody strong. I'd get it again anyway - just stand in the wind for a minute and the smell fades considerably.

I quite like this conditioner, and I love that it is silicone-free! I use it in conjunction with the banana shampoo; this is richer than the banana conditioner and I use it when my hair's feeling particularly dry. I took off a lippie for the INCREDIBLY STRONG scent (which, thankfully, rinses out, but sheesh!). I expect I'll use this more and more through the winter. UPDATE: this didn’t quite cut it when my hair got truly winter-dry, but it’s still a good medium conditioner. And still smells way too strong :)

A very good conditioner for my dry/very thick/coarse hair. The consistency is thick and does a superb job of adding moisture to parched hair, particularly when you allow it to sit on the hair for at least ten mintues before rinsing off. The scent definetely takes some getting used to, but it is in no way unpleasant or offensive. In fact, the scent may begin to grow on you after a while. The conditioner leaves the hair soft but does weigh it down a little. Would definitely buy again.

I think it is a great hair conditioner. I thought it would be too rich for my oily hair--but it is not!! It makes my long straight hair shine & silky whole day!!

Excellent for really Dry/Damaged hair. My hair way too fine to use this daily, so I use this as a hair mask on weekends and it's been working great!
