Review:
VO 5 are another line of cheapie conditioners often used for daily cowashing. I’m a Suave girl myself, but gave this one a shot too around the same time I first started using Suave. I just really didn’t like it. The smell was the only thing that I can comment on positively.
It was not very moisturizing, the slip was barely there, and it just left my hair feeling “bleh”. But, it is super cheap, and sometimes you can find it for 77 cents at CVS, so definitly worth a shot.
Will I buy this again? Nope!

My hair didn’t care for this as a cowash conditioner either.
My hair loves it as a pre-poo, it was so much easier to comb thru after washing.
Aww.Strawberries and Cream works really well for me and makes my hair so soft! But then again, I just BC’d and don’t have much to detangle(about 1 inch of hair).
My hair luvs this as a co-wash cond standing alone….but added with Eluscence cond…emm emmmm emmm words can’t describe how soft and plush the hair feels!!! Tangles melt away…
My hair hates it too. I stick to my Suave.
now, i have 2 half white half black kids..i tried this product on my son’s hair that falls below his back, and his hair loveeeeeeeeeeed this conditioner..the same with my other son whose hair is shorter….i was thrilled….$.89 scents on sale…can’t beat…now for me…..,no way..did not work..i use Aubrey Natural islands and VO5 strawberries and cream conditioner on the boys hair…mine i currently use KCCC, but looking for something cheaper..thanks for your information about different products….
Yeah I use V05 I have three inches of hair I just did the B/C 12/11/2009 and my hair takes better with this I might try the suave but if it drys my hair out then I wont use it anymore….luckly it was 97 cents at target….I will stop using V05 once my hair grows longer but thats one of my staples and also I loveeee KCCC…..and Knot today leave in…..
The V05 does not a thing for my hair. I was hoping my hair would like it because it is so cheap and so easy to find but no. I’ll stick to my Suave Tropical Coconut.
Intresting…
My hair loves VO5. I rate this by how the slip feels and how my hair feels as I am combing it. When I did my BC my hair loved it and now that I am 1 year natural my hair still loves it I’m curious to see if this will change when the length of my hair increases. As for Suave I don’t like it at all ( I love the smell). The slip feels ehhh…eww and my hair doesn’t instanly feel detangled plus it feels dry.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the soy protein in Vo5 … Giavonni also has it and I LOVE IT. Suave has silk amino acids. But I don’t know
Will I buy it OF COURSE!!!! I have 3 containers right now… can’t live without it.
VO5 moisture milks works for my hair. I tried Suave tropical coconut first, but it left my hair very dry and brittle. The VO5 did the complete opposite, great slip and it worked well with the other products that I used when styling.
