Hair. I don’t know about yours, but mine has its own mind. I have oily hair, but for some reason summertime dries it out. It’s baby fine, so I have to be careful about what conditioner I use. Too heavy a conditioner weighs it down. Not enough conditioner and I get tangles. Add to this the fact that I have two kinds of hair now: my still-brown, baby fine hair and the more wiry gray hair that has sprung up in the last several years. That adds up to a bit of a split-hair personality.
I need a good conditioner.
Enter Dove®. Dove kindly sent me a bottle of their Intensive Repair Daily Treatment Conditioner.
Dove has a line of these Advanced Conditioners that includes:
- Nourishing Oil Care Daily Treatment Conditioner
- Intensive Repair Daily Treatment Conditioner
- Nourishing Oil Care Conditioner
- Intensive Repair Conditioner
- Daily Moisture Conditioner
- Color Repair Conditioner
They all aim to help your hair in its battle with damage, sun, chlorine, humidity, and hereditary damage using their patented technology to repair and nourish dry hair. In the case of my Intensive Repair Daily Treatment Conditioner, that technology “penetrates deep inside the hair strand, helping rebind damaged proteins.”
To tell you the truth, I usually slap on some conditioner after shampooing, leave it on my hair for a few minutes, rinse it out and go on with my day. So I thought this new conditioner would probably do the same old thing any conditioner does.
You know I’m always honest with you. I can’t imagine being anything but honest on this blog, especially about a product that I’m reviewing. I have to tell you that, much to my surprise, this conditioner really made a difference in the look and feel of my hair. It’s smooth to the touch. That includes both my gray and brown hair. The frizzies are under control. It’s soft.
It’s true.
I like the handy tube. It’s much easier to pick up in the shower than a bottle. And I love the scent.

Hi Claudia,
Your hair sounds like mine. I think I have to try the Dove conditioner. Thanks.

I have oily hair too – I’ll be checking into this product.
It’s hard to tell from the photos, but your side photo looks like you have beautiful grey hair. I want to braid your hair and put a pretty pin in it. Do you wear any of your shawls? I bet you look beautiful.
