Title: Biolage
Post by Sara on Jan 12^th, 2005 at 12:25am

I have been using the leave in conditioner from the Biolage line. Does anyone else use it? I think it works fine on my hair. I comb my hair, spritz it on (especially on the ends) and then comb it through. Thne I put my hair in a braid and by the faternoon, my hair I take my hair out of the braid and it is in soft gentle waves.
However, this product uses both natural and chmeical subtances, since it "combines science with nature." I'm wondering has anyone seen any bad results on their hair from this product? I juts wonder if it would not be bets to switch to an all natural leave in conditioner but they tend to be even more xpensive (biloage is 11 dollars).

Even most of the "natural" products have chemicals in them. The trick is to find what works for your hair. If the product leaves your hair feeling soft and manageable and you are not suffering breakage, then it works for your hair!

I've not tried any of the Biolage products myself, so I can't speak to them specifically.

I have used that product. It seemed to work okay for me. I just didn't keep using it because I had others to use up.

I just found a "natural" leave-in conditioner on Vitacost.com. I ordered it, so will see how it is. I was looking for a leave-in without cones. I was not expensive.

I use Biolage Conditioning Balm as my only conditioner. To make a leave in, put about 1-2 tsp BCB in a plastic spray bottle with a drop of jojoba to help preserve it and fill with either distilled water or water you have boiled that has cooled.

I avoid silicone-containing products on my own hair and this one has no 'cones.

I'd love to have something else to alternate with but I haven't found another conditioner that works as well for me yet.

I have a lot of allergies and a lot of natural products that contain cedar or chamomile or calendula aggravage my allergies. By the time I look at all those ingredients and then look for a product without 'cones, the selection field grows narrow.

I have heard the Australian Organics line is very good.

Hope that helps,
