Keranique Deep Hydration Follicle Strengthening Conditioner
by Keranique · hair_care
Editor's Take
Keravis and a full protein complex at the top, but the silicone and quat stack underneath is pure conventional conditioning chemistry.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 7.8 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 7.5 / 10
- Clean Standards: 3.3 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 4.0 / 10
The Verdict
This delivers on the follicle-strengthening promise through a genuinely dense protein system,Keravis, hydrolyzed keratin, lupine protein, and saw palmetto all show up at active levels. The efficacy is real. But the delivery base is old-guard: multiple silicones, multiple quats, synthetic fragrance, and a long list of allergens. It works, especially for breakage-prone hair, but you're trading modern clean formulation for proven performance. Worth it if the protein payoff matters more than the ingredient profile.
