Side by Side Comparison of: Giovanni Cosmetics, Inc. vs Giovanni Cosmetics, Inc. vs Giovanni

So far so good. Leaves hair nice and soft and smooth. Not heavy on the hair and not greasy. I think I need something more powerful for my curly hair though. It smells great too!

Love love love this conditioner. My hair soaks it up. Leaving it soft enough to detangle with ease. There is no smell to it. It's very lightweight.

This is my favorite summer leave-in. I am an African-American woman with natural hair who tends to wear twist-outs for the whole summer. This holds in moisture without lots of weight or flakes. I can use this with an oil and cream moisturizer and not need to re-moisturize my hair for the next 3-4 days. Be forewarned though, as with most leave in conditioners, it will take a long time for your hair to dry after applying - especially if you do not use heat.

This is my favorite leave-in conditioner. I have really curly hair, and I'm super picky with what I use. My hair dresser throughout the years has tried different products to keep my hair looking smooth and feeling soft. Once he tried Giovanni's Direct Leave-In Conditioner, I needed to look no further. It smells pretty, it keeps my hair soft, looking smooth, and helps add some weight to my curls so when I let my hair out my hair goes down not up.If you're debating just to try this product, I suggest that you do because you will not be disappointed.

I have been using this product for many years. Each bottle lasts for a long time. I have frizzy hair that has been very long, to my waist. This helps tame the frizz and makes long hair more manageable without leaving it greasy.

I think it might work.. Just tried this conditioner last night. My hair looks great this morning. I have tried so many product on my hair! My hair is dry and a little frizzy, and nothing would tame it. So far, I am pleased with this product. Best of all, I like the fact that Giovanni products are cruelty-free!!! That is a HUGE selling point for me.

I love this leave in conditioner! The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because there's one leave in conditioner that suits my type of curly hair more. But this is a close second. I'm certain I'll use and buy again.

I use this on my daughter's natural hair and it makes it soft and manageable. I would purchase it and again and also recommend it to others.

I like this leave-in condioner, it does the trick. I like that it's not strongly scented, the scent is mild and pleasant. It's not oily at all (as long as you don't use too much).

I'm not a big fan of this as a leave in. It's ok for moisture but there's no curl defining properties to it. I definitely prefer my Shea moisture jbco leave in above this but it's an amazing detangler. I just wet my hair and put a dime size amount of this in the section I'm working on and the comb glides through.

I like it, I don't love it. If you're a natural looking for a leave in with good slip that's heavy enough for 4a-c hair, it's a good one, but I've been natural my whole life and when I was a broke college girl, I used Suave Conditioner as a leave in (and for everything else) and it was just as good. Honestly, it's not worth the price unless you're not concerned about price. I'd stick with tresseme or even suave coconut for a good smell, good slip and great conditioning. I like it and I understand why so many girls like it because it SAYS leave in while still being heavy enough to provide slip and deep moisture, but you can use regular conditioner as leave in, check the ingredients! They're exactly the same as a regular conditioner.

I love the product itself, but I think the size selection is not reasonable. The packaging makes it look much bigger than it is, but in reality, an 8.5 oz container is smaller than a 12 oz can of soda (think about it). It's time to make it available in larger sizes to the public. Like I said, I like the product, but not enough to buy this amount/price for use on a regular basis.

I was told this was the best leave in conditioner for thick curly hair. I can't say I agree. I used it as a leave in and then blew dry my hair. Made my hair stiff and greasy feeling. Maybe it'll work better on air dried hair. Definitely not good for blow drying!

Was ok on my hair (4c); phenomenal on my son's hair (3c). I'm not counting it out... I will say when it is first applied it looks like it's not going to blend in well, thick white coating; but that's not the case, very happy about that!

Not sure what the hype is with this product. I used it a few times but didnt' find it to be the "holy grail" that many claim it is. I don't hate it but probably wont' be ordering more. Wasn't the best product I've ever used for my hair

This didn't perform so well for my kinky hair as it may have for others. It did nothing to detangle my hair the way some other deep conditioners do. Sorry, I tried.

I just think this is ok. Perhaps I need to dilute it? It did not play well with the gel I applied on top of it and there was massive flaking and I was not impressed with that.I will try it diluted and then change my review based on that.

Leave in conditioners tend to feel heavy on me and if I go a couple of days without a wash it feels like it gets crusty. This product is less than other but still not super awesome. To me it doesn't have any fragrance at all which is better than a strong fragrance but I don't mind a inconspicuous scent. :)

I should have listened to the other reviewers. This stuff is very thick. Thicker than the kind you rinse off. And it does leave your hair kind of stiff. I was expecting a spray or at least something more fluid like Paul Newman's leave in conditioner. The only thing I like is the citrus scent.

Loved this product until I bought it the other day and the texture changed and it doesn't have the slip that it had before. Very disappointed!

I have thick curly hair. It's fine not coarse which may be why this product did not work for me. It actually dried my hair out so I stopped using it. It sounds like if you have the right hair type it this works quite well though.

I tried to use to because I bought it but it was a big fail. I followed the Youtube hype and purchased it. I do not see the big deal. It does not have a great smell to it and it left my hair feeling dry and stripped oppose to conditioned. I have use most of it just to give it a chance and mix with other things to see if it would be different but it hasnt been. At this point, it will stay under my bathroom counter until I find someone to give it to.

This leaves a greasy film on my hair and doesn't do much for thickness either. Waste of money as far as I'm concerned.

I've been using this product for 2 month now, I'm from Perú and here there aren't good products for wavy hair so searching the web I found very good reviews from this product... so I order it hoping it would do the same for my wavy frizzy hair... but it really didn't help at all =(

Yuck. Made your hair super dirty and oily with even a small amount. Smell wasn't pleasurable either

This product is not as advertised. It is both heavy and sticky. Not sure how they can advertise weightless

Worst I have used and I have tried many.

After using Nexxus Headdress this is a big let down. Makes my hair greasy

I bought this product believing that I would be getting what I ordered. The ingredients listed for this product is not what you actually get when you receive the product. The ingredients on the product are actually: Aqua (Purified water). Cetyl Alcohol. Tocopherol (vitamin E). Panthenol (Pro-vitamin B5). Citric Acid. Phenoxyethanol. *Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice. *Helanthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil. *Glycine Soja (Soybean) Seed Extract. *Betula Alba Extract. *Malva Sylvestris (Mallow) Extract. *Achillea Millefolium Extract. *Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract. *Equisetum Arvense Extract. *Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Extract. *Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract. *Salvia Sclarea (Clary) Extract. *Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme) Extract. *Tussilago Farfara (Coltsfoot) Flower Extract. *Urtica Dioica (Nettle) Extract.This product did nothing for my hair and if I had known "Phenoxyethanol" was going to be in it I would have never bought the product.

It did absolutely nothing! I tried it as a leave in conditioner- adding it to a few drops of oil sometimes... If anything the oil helps tame some frizz.. This actually make my hair feel like the ends of a broomstick. And I tried everything- a little, a lot, with oil, with no oil- no results!
