Review (4/5): Not bad for my 3c natural hair
I used to use Pantene Women of Color Conditioner (or whatever it's called) back when I was relaxed and in the beginning of my natural hair journey. I ended up switching to a different conditioner that was cheaper and it actually ended up being more effective, so I haven't used Pantene probably in 2 years.
I read about the Truly Natural line and I was a little hesitant about trying it due to past experience with it not adding much moisture to my hair. I heard good things about it so I decided to give the co-wash a shot, hoping it'd be a cheaper alternative to the As I Am Coconut cowash.
I soaked my hair in the shower, used a palm sized amount, focusing on my scalp first as I usually do, then started finger detangling the rest of my hair. I'll have to admit, the slip is pretty good! This stuff really melted my strands and made finger detangling a breeze - which is most important for me in a conditioner. I also like how thick the product is. When I slathered this on each section, my hair felt coated and moisturized, but not too thick that I had a hard time rinsing it out.
Now when I rinsed it out, my hair still felt soft, but not as soft as I'd like. Also, the scent does smell good, but it's just a tiny bit overpowering, which doesn't surprise me since it's Pantene. So for those reasons, I give this product 4/5.
Word of advice, don't purchase from Amazon. It's around 5 bucks at Walmart.
UPDATE: I let my hair air dry, and there actually wasn't enough definition in my wash and go. My hair was a bit poofier and frizzier than usual. I usually don't mind a little frizz, but there was a little too much frizz for my liking. I'll still give this product a 4/5 considering it does a nice enough job cleaning my hair.
