Having long hair, means finding a good conditioner is crucial. In the past I never really cared, I'd pick up whatever was on offer at the time, but now that I bleach the ends of my hair, I have to make sure that I'm using a conditioner that adds moisture back into my ends.
Dove is a brand I connect with my childhood, and very much view as a family favourite - but their haircare line is not one I've used before, or am familiar with. When I was sent the Dove Express Treatment Intensive Repair Conditioner* I was interested to see how it would perform on my beach frazzled ends. Dove describes the product as a dual action formula that helps rebind damaged proteins helping to prevent split ends and breakage by nourishing the hair and sealing lifted cuticles.
This has a really nice smell - it's very clean and fresh and not over powering so I enjoyed application. To use, I take a 50p size dollop and apply it from the nape of my neck down to the ends of my hair. I then leave this on for 1-2 minutes whilst I use my body scrub/shower gel/shave my legs (you get the picture) and then rinse. At this point, a notable mention must go to the easy-squeeze design of the bottle.
I found this to be a really nourishing conditioner that left my hair lovely and soft. I noticed a reduction in split ends, and I didn't feel like this weighed my hair down. I'd be interested to try the shampoo version of this to see how the products work in tandem.
RRP for this is £3.99 and it's available in Boots and Superdrug. Boots currently have a half price offer on Dove haircare so I'd recommend purchasing from there if you fancy trying this!
What are your thoughts on Dove's haircare range?
Ooo this sounds really interesting, think I will take a look when I pop to Boots today! xx

Ive been using a conditioner from this range but in a white and gold bottle... I think it's an argan oil version (?) but it's also amaze balls!! dove haircare is so good, have you tried the leave in conditioner? (It's in a yellow spritzy bottle) if not, you should! It works wonders on long and damaged hair!

I don't think I've tried anything from Dove myself but always love ideas to tackle my dry ends but avoiding over oiling my already greasy roots (nice!)
