Herbal Essences Honey I'm Strong Conditioner
Friday, June 14, 2013Promises: With a touch of 100% natural honey extract. This rich and creamy conditioner provides strength against damage and helps repair damage to smoothness for silky locks you will love.
Directions: Massage in this oh-so-creamy conditioner. Rinse and feel the revival.
Ingredients: Water/Eau, Stearyl Alcohol, Behentrimonium Chloride, Cetyl Alcohol, Bis-Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Honey/Miel, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Fruit Extract, Fragrance/Parfum, Benzyl Alcohol, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Hydroxide, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone, Blue 1, Yellow 5, Red 33.
Truth: This conditioner is very good. There has been a lot of rave reviews about the "Honey, I'm Strong" line, the conditioner in particular, and I must say that the conditioner lives up to the hype. I've used it as co-wash conditioner at least once a week for the past couple months and it leaves my hair feeling incredibly smooth, soft and moisturized. This conditioner claims to strengthen the hair; however, my hair did not feel stronger or more resilient after using the "Honey, I'm Strong" conditioner. If anything, my hair felt much more moisturized as opposed to strengthened. It has a very thick and creamy yellow consistency (similar to Hello Hydration, probably thicker). I find it very easy to apply to wet/damp hair; however, you must rinse thoroughly to ensure that the conditioner is completely removed from the hair. I really love the scent. It has a very sweet smell that reminds me of candy. The scent also lingers in the hair once the hair is dry. I find that my hair is noticeably fluffy and full of volume after using this conditioner, which is a plus. Does this conditioner compare to my Hello Hydration? Very close... but not quite. I find the detangling abilities in the Hello Hydration conditioner much stronger in comparison to the "Honey, I'm Strong" - that's the main reason why I can't part ways with it. Don't get me wrong, it does have a lot of slip! Will I repurchase "Honey, I'm Strong" conditioner? Probably, it's a great instant conditioner! But it will not replace my Hello Hydration :)
Pros:
- Moisturizing
- Smooth fluffy hair
- Thick consistency
- Slip
Cons:
- N/A
Price: $5.99 23.7 fl oz.
Hairlicious Rating: (4/5) Very Good

Great review. I was totally tempted to purchase this one instead of Hello Hydration a couple of weeks ago. Glad that I didn't.

Thank you hun! You can't go wrong with either one :)
DeleteI bought this conditioner this year in the dead of winter and it made my 4B/4C TWA super moist. So I stuck it way back in my bathroom cabinet. So since you gave it a good review, I will revisit it again for another try. I do love the Garnier conditioner with Argan Oil for cowashing though. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome! It has great moisturizing capabilities. No doubt about that :)
DeleteI love it too

It's definitely worth it. I recommend Hello Hydration and Honey I'm Strong. Long term is wonderful too.
DeleteWhat I like most with Herbal Essences products is the scent. It stays long on your hair and feels always fresh all day. Great review! Cheers.
ReplyDeleteVery very true!! Love the scent
DeleteI have heard such good things about the honey line. I may need to give it a try. Did you notice any type of buildup from the cones?
