    Default Looking for a new conditioner

    Hello everyone!

    I am growing more and more tired of the bottle that tresemmés natural conditioner is in, I would like a smaller bottle in a less troublesome shape, but still a good conditioner, you know?

    My hair can not take too heavy conditioners without going a bit limp, so I would like something that works as good as the tresemmé one, not too heavy but gives what is needed.

    Any suggestions?

    With or without silicones?

    With: Herbal Essences Hello Hydration (awesome detangler).

    Can you tolerate scented products? Do you want something with silicones?

    Thank you for the suggestions! I don't mind silicones or scent

    If it's just the bottle, why not transfer it to a container you prefer?

    If you don't mind silicones, Aveeno has a very nice conditioner that I just bought & it's lovely. It's called nourish & shine, and it's a medium thickness, spreadable conditioner that makes hair shiny and detangled, without that weighed down/ residue feeling. I did use the matching shampoo. The scent is very much like the 70s/80s wheat germ shampoos, but slightly more "perfumey" (in a good way). After reading online reviews, that was the formula I wanted and was able to find them at Target, but other places have various Aveeno formulas too (nourish & moisture, nourish & volume, nourish & strengthen, one for dandruff, a "pure" sulfate free). But the nourish & shine is very nice and was worth tracking down .

    Thank you for the suggestion! Seems like no stores in sweden got the conditioners mentioned so far, I don't like buying online, so it would be nice to get some more suggestions

    It is hard to get everything out of the bottle and it is big. Can't open it up in a good way = have to press it out slowly. I would have to keep a bottle of it and awkwardly refill whatever container I put it in every now and then. I rather just find something new.

    Is Pantene or Garnier Ultra Doux available in Sweden? If so, they make various formulas for different hair types and come in flip- top squeeze bottles that aren't too big. Both lines are very nice.

    We do have some Pantene, but not all. We have some Garnier too, but I've never seen ultra doux.

    In the UK "Ultra Doux" is called "Ultimate Blends". Maybe under that name?
