Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner Review

I am currently experimenting with some easily available and cheap silicone free conditioners in India. After Enliven and Revlon Flex conditioners, Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner is another one.

Description by Nyassa: Nyassa conditioners provide intensive nourishment to the hair post a hair wash. Two of the best known natural ingredients that helps healthy and luxuriant hair growth comes together in this nyassa hair conditioner. Scented with a soothing floral, woodsy fragrance, this is all that you need for your daily hair care regimen. Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner contains Hibiscus extracts and Moroccan Argan oil that helps nourish damage hair. Hibiscus extract is an effective natural hair conditioner and an excellent moisturizer. It also has anti-dandruff properties. Argan oil hydrates hair and prevents roughness. It helps restore hair luster and shine and is very nourishing for hair growth.

Price: 600 INR for 250 ml. You can buy it here.

Ingredient Analysis:

Argan oil, shea butter, hibiscus extract, sweet almond oil, stearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol – Fatty alcohols (smoothen the hair cuticle), e- wax – Emulsifying wax (mixes oils and water), DM water – demineralized water, disodium EDTA – removes free metal ions, brassicamidopropyl dimethylamine – Conditioning agent, Panthenyl hydroxypropyl steardimonium chloride – Antistatic agent, beet root extract, hydrolyzed corn starch, vitamin E acetate, citric acid, phenoxyethanol, methylisothiasolinone – Preservatives, and fragrance

Argan oil and shea butter are my most favourite hair ingredients and so this product looked perfect for me at first sight. The ingredient list in general looks great. But was it?

CG Friendly: Yes
Texture: Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner has a very thick, pasty, non-creamy texture
Smell: It smells very strong. I don’t like it.
Packaging: Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner comes in a pump bottle which is very inconvenient because the product is very thick and non-creamy. I have to pump hard at least 40 times to get a decent amount of product out.

Performance:

Here’s how I apply conditioners – How to wash & condition curly hair and here is a post with my full curly hair care routine – My curly hair routine.

+ (I don’t have any positives to say about Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner)

– It makes my hair frizzy

– I don’t see any argan oil or shea butter effects on my hair after using this conditioner

– It has got no slip and makes detangling very difficult

– It doesn’t help in curl clumping or definition

– It doesn’t provide moisture to dry hair

In short: Nyassa Hibiscus Conditioner is not a very good conditioner, especially for the price of 600 INR for such a small bottle.
