John Frieda Radiant Red, Boosting Conditioner, Hydrates and Enhances Red Tones with Pomegranate Extract and Vitamin E for Natural or Color-Treated Red Hair, 8.3 Oz

I was pretty skeptical when it came out dark from the bottle but it did wonders for my bright red hair and it's silky soft so I'm very happy lol. Definitely a great price, smells really nice, it helped the brightness of my hair so it was effective in what I needed. Definitely feels like it made a difference using this over regular conditioner. It wasn't heavy or greasy, my hair feels soft and healthy, and it brightened the red more.

My mother has naturally bright red/orange Irish hair and my father has black hair, so as a child, I had dark auburn hair. Around 19, my hair got darker and is now very dark brown almost black, but with strands of bright red and some strawberry red that look grey. I decided to try a split-dye style and I've been trying to get the lightened half back to normal. My parents are in their mid-70s and are only now showing grey at all. My mother's hair is still vibrant and she just uses henna powder on her roots. I'm 33, so I have some grey coming in and want to darken any white/grey/strawberry blonde since it looks so stark in comparison to my dark hair. In case you're just scanning my review, I'll mention that "Vibrant Red" is misleading. If your hair is a true fiery, coppery, natural vibrant red, the color that this conditioner deposits IS NOT any of those colors. If you're trying to cover white/ grey, this MAY be better than nothing, but beware that the color it deposits after one use is a mahogany, pinkish dark red. However, if you're toning out green or blue hair, this is definitely worth a try to tone your hair towards neutral. After over-dying and lightening my hair as a teenager, I am not completely allergic to boxed hair dye as well as professional hair dye. After lightening my hair the last time, I've used the following products to phase the split-dye out. The photo shows the split dye after it was lightened and toned to be a greyish lavender). My most recent addition is this product, which I use with a couple other products to achieve my natural hair color. About a year ago, I had my hair done by a colorist using Redken orange and reds, so when I lightened my hair for the split-dye, the result was blonde with pink tones that I could not get out. Any and all toner I tried to make the blonde more cool made it more purple. The only other product I'd used aside from the following is Arctic Fox "Transylvania," which I use occasionally to get rid of whites ad greys, but it turns white hair light blue. Anyway, since the photo, I use "Keracolor Clenditioner" in Onyx and leave it on for at least an hour every couple of weeks (I'll be reviewing that next, here, on Amazon). It has a green undertone, so the pinkish mahogany gives my hair similar highlights to the auburn highlights I have naturally. Other pros are the price, the fact that you don't need to use gloves, doesn't stain anything, and covers grey/ white hair even if you only use it for a few minutes. If you're debating over a mask or gloss, or a product like overtone, don't waste your money (they don't cover white or grey at all) and give this a try.

To the ladies complaining it doesnt work...You cant use it on brown hair and expect it to turn red..Its not a dye..Its meant for natural or dyed redheads to help color last longer..I love it on by dyed burgundy color!! Smells great!

OK conditioner, not noticing it keeping my hair any more red than normal.

I don’t know if this is actually helping my fading red, but I can tell you that I’m a really hard sell when it comes to shampoo, conditioner and all hair care products, but this masked my hair feel and smell so good. It’s a fantastic conditioner. I think it’s better than anything I e bought in a salon. My hair feels great after using both the shampoo and conditioner. I’m sold and now hoping this is not discontinued. I really love this stuff. It does stain my white bath towels but seems to come out in the wash with thorough washing. That might mean I’m not rinsing my hair enough, not sure. It’s totally fine with me because I love this product that much.

It’s always a bit of a letdown when a professional recommendation doesn't immediately live up to the hype, especially when you’re trying to keep red hair looking vibrant! Here is a balanced review reflecting that experience: Review: Underwhelming Results – Not Seeing the "Boost" Star Rating: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (3/5) I purchased the John Frieda Radiant Red Color Boosting Conditioner after it was recommended by my stylist, but unfortunately, I’m feeling a bit disappointed with the results so far. My Experience: Color Impact: I haven’t noticed any color difference or "boost" in my red tones. I was expecting a bit more vibrancy, but my hair looks the same as it did before I started using it. Conditioning Power: I also didn't feel an increase in conditioning. It performs like a basic conditioner, but it didn't leave my hair feeling extra soft or deeply hydrated. Frequency of Use: To be fair, I may not have used it frequently enough to see the cumulative effects that some color-depositing products require. Final Thoughts: It’s a decent enough product for daily use, but it hasn’t provided the "wow" factor I was hoping for based on the professional recommendation. If you're looking for an instant, dramatic color refresh, this might be too subtle.

I love this conditioner for my colored hair. My stylist keeps my hair a beautiful, natural red color. This conditioner keeps my color from fading without altering or cheapening my stylist's formula. I have long hair which means the ends could show damage having been colored for so many years if not well maintained. I, however, received so many compliments from complete strangers on the color and texture of my hair. As I use both the shampoo and conditioner as part of my regular routine, maintaining the color and luster of my hair is ridiculously easy! This conditioner makes my hair soft, shiny, and strong without making my hair feel waxy or weighed down. The fragrance is clean and pleasant without being overpowering. This also helps me save money at the salon, as my color doesn't fade, so the ends of my hair don't have to be processed as often as the roots. Even after 7 days on a dive boat, in and out of the salt water several times a day, my color didn't fade! I've use this shampoo and conditioner for many years now, and I wouldn't change a thing about it. Great value for the incredible hair color and texture it helps maintain!

It barely boosts my color. There are much more effective color boosting conditioners out there. For sure not buying this one again.

It does not color the hair in red

Llegaron en excelente estado. Ya he probado este combo y me encanta, me deja el cabello cuidado y con apenas 2 meses de pintarme el cabello, siguen diciendo que se me ve el color brilloso

It’s alright if you have fresh dyed hair but it doesn’t stain the hair but kinda helps to not fade that quickly but hair did turn brown over time

A very good quality shampoo for red hair

Normal conditioner doesn't have any red colour pigment. Doesn't boost the red hair at all. Don't recommend
