PantenePro-V Expert Collection AgeDefy Conditioner - 8.4 oz[Amazon-developed Certification] Compact by Design

OK, I have to confess I don't use it as a shampoo for my hair but as a GREAT hand wash. I didn't like it as a shampoo - seemed to dry out my hair too much. I prefer Pureology products for hair. But… as a hand and body wash: WOW, amazing! I do a lot of gardening and struggled for years to keep my hands "presentable" over the summer. Now I have magic "solution" - literally and figuratively. I came upon it by a mix of accident and thinking about what I could do differently from what was clearly not working. The accident was finding a travel size of this, so I could add it to the pile of items to experiment with, without spending a lot. The thinking part was deciding I needed something that worked like a face cleanser - something with more some penetrant chemicals, plus some moisturizer along with the surfactants. Soaps just dried out my skin, and didn't get at the dirt that had already snuck in below the surface layer of skin. I discovered that using a hair conditioner first and then washing with soap was way more effective than soap alone and reduced the drying out. So I started to look for a product that did both steps in one. I settled on this one mostly because I liked how well it worked - and I wasn't put off by the scent . It also dissipates quite quickly. I seriously dislike hand washes that hang around so everything you touch and eat starts to taste like the stuff. I prefer unscented products for everything, but finding an unscented shampoo wasn't easy. The one I did find was an Avalon Organics product. It didn't work as well as this, dried out my skin, and had a slightly "off" smell which I disliked as much as I dislike a LOT of the fragrances in shampoos etc. But scent is a very personal preference thing, so there may be other shampoos of the "deep penetrating"/"moisturizing" kind that work as well as a hand/body cleanser that other people like the scent of more.Another plus: it's very concentrated: a little goes a long way, more than other shampoos/hand/body washes. I've now taken to dispensing some into a pump dispenser and diluting it a little with distilled water. Perfect.

First of all, I am NOT getting a discount or freebie for writing this review, I just want to tell you how amazing this stuff really is!! I'm not THAT old - maybe I feel like I am with 3 kids, but really, I'm only in my early 30s - but I discovered the Pantene Pro-V Age Defy shampoo (and conditioner!) a few years ago and it really has been a life changer! I have super fine hair, but lots of it, so I went through SO MANY different brands of shampoo/conditioner over the years and just never could find "the one" that made my hair feel beautiful. I think I tried just about every volume-inducing/volume-enhancing/volume-boosting product on the market, and yet, my hair was still dull, dry and lifeless. I tried the Age Defy on a whim (I think I probably had a coupon for that first bottle), and I instantly noticed a HUGE difference! My hair had not felt so soft and looked so shiny since Ross and Rachel had their first kiss (I always wanted Rachel's hair!!)! I was also very impressed by the amount of volume that I got (and still get!) with this collection that doesn't even advertise how great it is for hair that needs - and begs for! - volume! I seriously have no idea what they put in this stuff, but the "Age Defy" claim is spot on. Even if you're not "THAT old," you might want to give this a shot if your hair is anything less than what it used to be before you found yourself with a mortgage/husband/kids/etc.

Took an impulsive decision of getting my hair colored and had no shampoo for color treated hair. Googled some good shampoos and then Amazon came to rescue. I have used this twice till now and had pretty good results.Pros:-Smells heavenly-good density and texture-maintains color-Doesn't dry hair after wash-my hair were silky smooth afte the very first useCons:-The bottle looked really cheap at first whivh even got me thinking if this was real Pantene product or not-Slight increase in hair fall but could be due to recent hair color.

I have thin fine hair so I have to be careful what I put on my locks. This worked well and made my hair feel soft and didn't weigh it down.

I really don't know how to rate this as I just received it and haven't used it yet. I am assuming it is okay and it may be great - I just don't know yet. There should be a star that says "haven't used it yet" if you want an opinion this quickly. Give people a week or two to try the product, then send them the reviews to comment on.

About a thousand years ago Neiman Marcus briefly sold Pantene products. I figured someone big at the retailer was friendly with the someone big at Pantene because the product was okay but not worthy of such prestige. This product changes my opinion, completely, as it can compete with the best I've ever tried. Received a sample in the mail a while back and was impressed but didn't buy until recently. Now, it will be my exclusive hair conditioner. For those who bleach their hair it helps to smooth hair cuticle keep the ends from looking too dry. My hair feels stronger, yet softer and looks really great. I can't guarantee you'll have the same results as me but it's definitely worth a try. Incidentally, aside from dying my hair, I use a blow dryer and flat iron.

Been using this formula for a few months now and I have to say, I don't need anything else to work with. This is fabulous. I have hair down to my backside, so with hair that long, you have to really take care of it.This has not only improved my hair, but it is actually like "new hair" all the way to the ends.Even the ends are shiny and no spit ends from using this regularly.I especially love the Age Defy conditioner. It has worked wonders for me. My hair, when short is very curly. Long, it's straight. This formula brought back body and curl to mine. No frizz and no breakage. Highly recommend for long hair.
