    Love this conditioner! I have had a very dry and itchy scalp since being pregnant with my first child, and this conditioner is lovely and soothing. A little bit goes a long way too!

  • Nisha says:

    I LOVE the product and went out and bought more for my kids to use. I love the simplicity of both the packaging and the product and my hair has never been better.

  • Verelle says:

    I loved the results from the conditioner it has left my hair soft and hasn’t dried out so I haven’t needed to wash my hair as much.

  • Kate says:

    Loved the conditioner left my hair soft and silky

  • Frances says:

    Another great product, not heavy and has left my hair soft and has repaired dry ends.

  • missk8te says:

    I have been using his Conditioner along with the Shampoo.

    I found the Conditioner to be quite good. It didnt weigh down my hair and it felt quite managable after using.

    The only thing I had to figure out was how long to leave it on for.. some conditioners you can just put on, run a comb through and rinse… this product took a little longer to work which was a bit trial and error.

    Simple clean and nice packaging but as mentioned with the shampoo I would like a bit more of a fresh smell maybe other than the chemically smell it currently has.

    Thank you for giving me the opportunity to test this product.

    Kate

  • Janine says:

    I liked this product and the ingredients were more suitable for me than the shampoo. The conditioner helped reduce the number of tangles I had after using the shampoo and left my hair feeling smooth without too many frizzies. I would continue to use this product, thank you for allowing me to trial it!

  • Jasmine says:

    Wonderful! Pleasant to use and gentle on my skin and hair.

  • Maretliu says:

    Just tried the conditioner. It is a fantastic companion to the shampoo. I have been looking for a fragrance free shampoo and conditioner for a long time, there isn’t much around on the market.
    If the shampoo and conditioner both are available in larger sizes, it would be great to have around as a household staple, just like QV wash!

  • Rosemary says:

    I have very thick coarse hair which can be difficult to manage. Used this with the shampoo and loved the result. Left a nice shine and hair was nice and soft. The conditoner didnt leave a build up of product that is common in other products.

  • Sue says:

    Conditioner is very good and goes a long way. I have frizzy hair most of the time but I am finding this conditioner is helping calm my hair considerably.

  • Chris says:

    Great product! Completely scentless, so I’m not overwhelmed with strange fruit or other smells. Made my hair lovely and soft and no bad reaction to my skin, I have psoriasis. Excellent in combination with QV shampoo. Will be buying this in the future.

  • KATRINA says:

    The conditioner left my scalp feeling soothed, even if still a bit itchy. The only thing I would say is that it caused my hair to be a bit tangled. Will be interesting to see as I have coloured hair how long term it affects the colour. So far so good!

  • Karin says:

    Thanks for the opportunity to trial this product.I have a sensitive scalp and fine hair and find the QV conditioner really good.It didn’t make my hair limp and left it feeling lovely and soft.I will definately buy this product again.

  • candy says:

    i am glad i tried the QV gentle shampoo and conditioner, made my hair feel soft and nice smell of the shampoo, it is gentle. thanks for the trial.

  • Blair says:

    great product love using it made a big difference to my mop of hair, love the product a definite convert

  • Antonia says:

    Thank you for the opportunity to try the QV gentle conditioner. It leaves my hair soft and manageable; no irritation to my sensitive scalp, need only small amount, will definitely keep using.

  • Jennifer says:

    I’ve had the opportunity to trial the QV Conditioner a number of times now and have been pleasantly suprised. My hair being curly, fine and at 40, there doesn’t seem to be as much of it anymore also there’s the colouring and straightening that my hair endures.
    Upon using this product I was most grateful that my hair had volume once more. It feels and looks thicker and a whole lot healthier. Styling was a breeze too.
    No itchy scalps of flaking here!!

    Thank you for allowing me to trial this product.

  • Camille says:

    Thank you for the sample. I have very long hair and generally find conditioners don’t wash out properly as it is oily near the scalp and dry at the ends. This conditioner so far has been good. It washes out well, I don’t feel like my hair is full of product but my hair is manageable and easily brushed. I will be looking for this product when my sample is finished.

  • Mary says:

    Thank you for product to trail. I found the product very helpful. It is very smooth and gentle with a good fragrance.

  • Claire Matthews says:

    The QV conditioner was a lovely consistency and was easily applied to my hair. No leaking of liquid through my fingers. I did however, find that it took longer to rinse the conditioner out of my hair that previous conditioners I have used but this was not a problem for me.

    I also liked that fact that there was no colour or sparkles added as there is no need for these extras to achieve healthy shiny strong hair. After using QV conditioner my hair felt soft and was easily brushed and maintained. I also found it smoothed any frizz I sometimes have after drying my hair.

    The tube the conditioner came in was nice to look at and appealed to me. It easily stood upright with the lid at the bottom which was convenient. No need for trying to prop it up between other products in the shower when it needed draining. I also found it didn’t collect water in the cap which some other containers unfortunately do.

    Overall, I really liked this product and would reccomend it to anyone who asked me. However, I have no idea what its price is so wouldn’t know if i could reccomend it to someone with a restricted budget.

  • Janie says:

    Thanks you for letting me trial this product. I have long fine hair and it’s always hard to brush after washing it, and using a conditioner does not always help. I like the texture of the product, it fells creamy and stays on my hair where it’s suppose to, makes it easy for me to brush after towel drying. I will definitely buy this product.

  • Lia says:

    I found the product to be very thin , not gluggy, smooth, not greasy. I needed more than usual to cover my hair. It washed well and didn’t leave any type of smell or fragrance after wash. It is a great product for sensitive skin as it felt light and free

  • Bella says:

    I recieved the conditioner as a trial. I knew I would have no problems with the product as i know how good QV already is.
    And of course the conditioner lived up to the QV reputation. I used it on my hair and for shaving and it was great leaving my hair or legs silky smooth and moisturised.

    Id recommend it to anyone

  • Joanne (jo Lee) says:

    Thank you for the opportunity to test drive the lovely QV Conditioner. My hair felt very soft and smooth after using this product. It also felt thick – other smoothing conditioners leave my hair feeling thin and wafey. I absolutely love that it is fragrance free- I use hairspray and/or wax on a dialy basis, so it was lovely not to have so many different fragrances radiating from my hair. After using this product for a week it dawned on me that it would be great on my children’s hair. My hair of 3 and a half year old and 2 year old was simply ‘pure’ after using this conditioner. My baby girls curls bounced. My baby boys hair was so soft. Gentle enough for use on children’s hair, yet totally effective on adults hair. Good job QV.

  • Louise Messenger says:

    I hav ebeen using the QV conditioner for the past few weeks, and so far have been pleased with the results!

    I have quite bad psoriasis, and many products make this worse, the QV condidioner has not done this so far (yay!) and what’s more, has kept my hair feeling nice and soft. As I use quite intense shampoos designed to help psoriasis, my hair is left feeling so dry and horrible. But the QV has helped this a lot.

    I will totally keep using this product!! Thanks!!

  • Averil says:

    I have hair that is quite bleached and dry, and while I found the conditioner good for my sensitve skin it probably isn’t moisturising enough for my type of hair. I have used it on my kids hair though and it leaves their hair very soft and shiny, and is excellent on their sensitive skin.

  • Carla says:

    I am really pleased with the quality of this product, I have very sensitive skin and found that this conditioner is both gentle and rich. It has left me with soft hair and a blotch free face.. Thanks!

  • Amanda says:

    Great Conditioner, comparable to salon products! Love the way it leaves no residue, leaving my hair silky and smooth. I am prone to an itchy dry scalp which some products irritate but I have tried this over the last two weeks and have had no problems! Well done QV!

  • Amy says:

    I have incredibly dry hair and while I absolutely loved that this product was soap free and left my hair smelling beautiful (even though it’s fragrance free!), it wasn’t quite moisturising enough to leave my hair feeling nourished.

  • Lou says:

    Loved it! I have dry skin & thick, dry, coarse hair which has worsened with age but my friends have commented how soft & fluffy my hair is looking & feeling. I used QV after swimming in a heavily chlorinated pool &it softened my hair straight away. Will be using it again. Can’t wait to buy the matching shampoo.. Thank you

  • Yvonne says:

    I am very pleased to test drive this conditioner. I have a very sensitive scalp and can only use one or two shampoos and conditioners, with a few days break and Ni…..l (not sure if I can mention the name here it is a specalist one) I did wonder if I should, but decided to give it ago after reading the label. Lovely product…. my hair feels softer and more natural, and as a bonus I have used it every second day since since it arrived and I do not have the usual attack of the itchies.

  • serge sammut says:

    I have enjoyed using the QV Conditioner very much. It has no over powering smells, nice and thick, easy to rinse off with no residue.

    My hair definitely feels more nourished and not dry.

    Many thanks for the opportunity to try this product, I will most definitely be using this product in the future.

    Serge

  • Eriin says:

    I have enjoyed using this product very much. At first it was a bit strange not having any scent but for what it lacks in smell it more than makes up for in other ways. I have very long hair and I only need half the amount I would normally to thoroughly condition. It absorbs into the hair extremely well and once rinsed out you’re left with a squeaky clean feeling. Fantastic QV.

  • Joanna Wilkinson says:

    I have fine blonde hair and have a tendency for a sensitive scalp, plus I colour my hair every two months, so it sure does get quite a beating.

    Have to say though that I have enjoyed using the QV Conditioner, no over powering smells, nice and thick, easy to rinse off with no residue. My hair feels nourished, not dry. The conditioner doesn’t leave your hair feeling too heavy and feels fuller and softer.

    Many thanks for the opportunity to try this product, I will most definitely be using this product in the future.

  • Loz says:

    Thanks for the trial of this. I liked the conditioner – it didn’t seem to be full of nasty chemicals (based on my limited knowledge of such things), but it didn’t leave my hair greasy like some of the other natural conditioners do. It smelt nice and like others have said, I didn’t have to use heaps of it.

    I am really keen to try the matching shampoo – will have to keep an eye out for it at the shops.

  • Kimmi.o says:

    First off, I wanna thank you for letting me test this product out! I really liked how thick the conditioner was. When I applied the cream to my wet hair, it didn’t run at all. I felt there was some residue left on my hair after it dried. It felt kind of heavy but it also felt dry and brittle as well. It definitely made it feel fuller tho. Perhaps it would be better if i used the QV shampoo with it. Overall, I’d give this conditioner a 7 out of 10.

  • Anita says:

    I have a sensitve scalp which seems to be triggered by anything – heaters, swimming pools, heavy shampoos, humidity.

    Interestingly enough, the QV conditioner didn’t irritate my scalp at all and I even used it on my 1 year old who had remnants of some cradle cap – and it cleared up!

    I have also used this on my other children and it has left their hair feeling a lot less greasy.

    Definitely a winner in my household!

  • CC says:

    Thanks for the free trial. A very mild and inoffensive product. It did relieve a slightly itchy scalp but I do prefer a nicer fragrance to my products- the plus side my husband really liked it

  • Melissa says:

    LOVE it! I have very fine hair and have been using this product for two weeks now, my hair acutally appears to be thicker, it styles easier and you don’t need to use very much to get the benefits. This is a great product that I wil most definately buy. Thanks for letting me try it!

  • David says:

    I tried the sample QV hair conditioner over the past 4 weeks. Normally I don’t use a conditioner as my scalp is quite sensitive, and I have used the QV shampoo for a few years. The QV conditioner left my hair deeling so soft and smooth, without any effects on my scalp. I will purchase and continue to use thios product.

  • Caron says:

    Thanks for letting me trial this product. The packaging is excellent. I love the texture of the product, it is not too thick. I have eczema and a very itchy scalp but this has calmed down a lot since I started using QV Gentle Conditioner. My hair has been very smooth and shiny since using it as well. Unlike many other conditioners, QV Gentle conditioner doesn’t weigh your hair down, and a little goes a long way. I’d definitely recommend it to others, 10/10

  • Natasha Cutting says:

    Thanks so much for sending the trial pack, it is a really lovely product. Leaves my hair feeling silky & easy to comb. I would definetely buy this product.

  • i LOOOOOOVE this product, i feel like a new me, im not an old fuzznut anymore, my hair is soooooo silky, i let my sister use it also and she is hooked, you have definitely WON me, thank you sooooo much xo

  • Angela says:

    I have tried QV hair conditioner for the last 4 weeks. I have a very sensitive scalp and as I only need to wash my hair once a week I usually need about three washes before the reaction is evident. I was suprised that as yet I have had no reaction. I found that I had to use at least twice as much as my usual conditioner to get the coverage I needed, whilst my hair felt soft afterwards I wouldn’t say that it felt silky. I would consider using this product again.

  • Pat Catchpole says:

    Thanks for the trial product, unfortunately my hair is less than an inch long
    in a buzz cut, so I wasn’t a good tester for the product. I did give it to
    a friend with long hair who said it was really nice to use and left her
    hair feeling healthy and shiny, but she missed fragrance. She gives
    it 7 outta 10

  • Tabetha says:

    I testdrove this product on my 3 yr old that has had a lot of trouble with ichy scalp and skin, from my experience from other products i thought it would damage her hair and make it lifeless, boy was i wrong, it was soft and fluffy and her ichyness stopped overnight, i will continue using this as its the best, and with the added conditioner it makes the perfact package. Very Happy.

  • Ange says:

    I have fine, thick oily hair, which is usually quite limp after washing and conditioning. I usually forgo the conditioner to use a light conditioning oil instead to ensure I have a bit more volume. After using the QV conditioner for 2 weeks, I’ve found that my hair is lighter, which was quite surprising, a lot smoother and definitely easier to style. I will definitely continue to use this product.

  • Brooke says:

    My daughter and I tested this as we both have dry scalps, and usually use an anti dandruff shampoo/conditioner with this we didn’t need to it was fantastic, We have think heavy hair that just sits and does nothing, but with this conditioner it had life to it,

    My daughters hair has lots of shine and looks extremely healthy

    i would give this a 9/10 its fantastic

  • Brooke says:

    My daughter and i tested this, we both have dry scalps and always use an anti dandruff conditioner, we have not had a single problem with this conditioner our scalps are in great shape, we have soft manageable hair. this stuff is fantastic

  • Kathleen says:

    I have coloured treated hair which sustained considerable damage after the last application of colour from a hairdresser. It left my hair lifeless, dull and without definition. After the initial application, I found my hair was more manageable, had some shine back and my natural wave was more obvious. With subsequent use the moisture in this QV conditioner improved the condition of my hair and frizziness and fly aways are minimal. I’d recommend this product and the big bonus is the more I used it, the result impacted very favourably.

  • kyone Byrne says:

    felt light and nourished. only had to use a little(i have long hair).
    It took a few goes for my hair to react to the new conditioner, then it was wonderful.
    Now my hair feels manageable and less whispy after it is conditioned.

    really loved this product as it does what it claims..8/10

  • Jo says:

    The product was okay; turns out I actually like conditioner that has a pleasant smell so maybe this isn’t for me. My hair felt soft but it didn’t get all the tangles out. I would probably rate it 6/10.

  • Wendy says:

    I have been using the conditioner for the last couple of weeks. I found it a nice product to us, left my hair feeling lovely and soft and it assisted with styling afterwards. I have very fine hair and I normally find that conditioners leave my hair flat with no volume but the QV product didn’t do this so thanks QV!

  • Sue holding says:

    I loved testing QV Gentle conditioner, my hair was soft and easy to manage, I didn’t have to was my hair as often. The product is exactly as stated, no smell, or colour, a little bit goes a long way, I havn’t had an itchy scalp since using it. I am happy to recommend this product to those who have sensitive skin. I love QV Gentle Conditioner, is there a matching shampoo?. 10 out of 10 . Just love it

    • QV Skincare says:

      Hi Sue,
      yes there is a matching shampoo – QV Gentle Shampoo. Look out for it in Pharmacies & Priceline! Thanks for your feedback! Kind regards, The QV Team

  • Danielle says:

    Thank you very much for letting me trial this product. I think this has to be one of the best conditioners I have ever used. It is almost like a treatment as it is quite dense and really deeply cleansing and nourishing. Just as the product states it is very gentle and you don’t need to use a lot for a brilliant clean. My hair feels considerably softer and is full of bounce. I will definitely be recommending this product to family and friends.

  • Nichole says:

    I was excited to try this product, i have had probelms with hair prodcuts before as my skin can be alittle sensitive. I had no problems with this product. After using the product now for a few weeks i have found that my hair is soft and feels good. I like the way the product absorbed into my hair. I also found that you didn’t have to use too much of the product. The only down sigh was their were a few more knots in my hair after washing. I would give it 7.5 out of 10 :)

  • El says:

    I passed this to my MIL to test-drive as she has very, very sensitive skin which gets inflamed and itchy with most hair products. She has so far found only one or two products suitable. So far, she has used the QV Gentle Conditioner for almost 2 weeks and has had no problems – Also said her hair was very soft and silky afterwards, which she doesn’t find so much with the others she is using.

    • Emm says:

      I am loving this conditioner. Has not caused any itchiness, leaves hair feeling wonderful, doesn’t leave my hair limp. Will be using this conditioner on my and my kids hair from now on.
