Phyto Nutrition conditioner: jojoba care for dry hair

A comb that snags, ends that lose their shine, lengths that lack suppleness: dry hair needs a little attention after every wash. That is exactly what a conditioner is for, and the one in Phyto's Nutrition range is designed with this hair type in mind.

What is Nutrition conditioner?

According to the product sheet, this conditioner detangles and nourishes without weighing down the hair fibre, for softer, smoother and shinier hair. At the heart of the formula, jojoba oil provides the lipids dry hair needs and protects it from drying out. The sheet also states that a white mallow extract makes hair twice as shiny. It comes in a 175 ml bottle.

Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) is a shrub from the arid south-west of North America; what we call its oil is in fact a liquid wax, widely used in cosmetics. Mallow, meanwhile, grows along our paths and banks and has long been known in traditional use.

Shampoo and conditioner: two different jobs

Shampoo cleans; conditioner coats the fibre and makes styling easier. The two work together – and the step people skip when short of time is often the one that makes the difference when detangling.

How to use it

• After shampooing, gently squeeze your hair with your hands to remove excess water.
• Apply a small amount of conditioner to the lengths and ends, avoiding the roots.
• Gently detangle with a wide-tooth comb, starting at the ends and working upwards.
• Leave on for one to two minutes, or as indicated on the packaging.
• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, then pat your hair dry rather than rubbing it.

Going a step further

On very dry ends, a drop of Phyto 7 Elixir after drying completes the routine. And if your hair is curly, the brand also offers a curls conditioner.

Precautions

A few simple rules. For external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes and rinse thoroughly in case of splashes. If your scalp is sensitive or you have reacted to a hair product before, read the ingredients and try it on a small area first. Keep the bottle out of the reach of children.
