Joico Color Infuse Red Conditioner | For Red Hair | Instantly Refresh Red Tones | Boost Color Vibrancy & Shine | Protect Against Harmful UV Damage | With Rosehip Oil & Green Tea Extract

Yes, this does feel dry at first, but if you color your hair you should only wash 1 or 2 times a week, so it really gets rid of the build up. It has extended the life of my color for about 2 weeks or so. I am not brassy or faded out as much at the ends, but my roots are still noticeable, but not as bad. I love that my hair can go sometimes 4-5 days without a wet shampoo using this product! It doesn't get as greasy as fast. The less you wash colored hair, the longer the color will last. After a month of using this product, I'm very happy with the results. I will add a monthly deep conditioning treatment before each new hair dying - but that's totally optional.

This was a very effective product. Too bad it has been discontinued as has the companion shampoo.

I liked my hair after using this product! The color in my hair stayed vibrant for almost a year. Love how it smells too

I had found the ideal red hair conditioner during 2020 but that company stopped making their hair conditioner for whatever reason. This one works and stains my hands are tiny bit when I use it. That is why I gave it four stars instead of five. Also, I find that I need to use it in combination with another cream rinse or my very fine hair tangles. Still, it’s the best one of these that I found so far. I just wish someone made something more like the bioterra sheer illumination shiny red.

TLDR: Does a great job keeping me a pretty, natural copper red, but makes my hair an unmanageable, crispy, dry mess during and after application that even additional rinse out PLUS leave in conditioners barely improve. I am discontinuing use of this product for now and looking for a different color depositing product. THE WHOLE STORY: I had my long (below my shoulders) naturally 3C curly hair dyed from a virgin 4-ash brown to a 6/7-copper red at a salon. Loved the color but all of the red faded within two weeks and I was left with bright orange hair. Which is perfectly lovely on those redheads who are that shade naturally, but it did not look good on me. My stylist recommended this conditioner to help add the deep red tones back until my next touch up appointment. PROCESS: I’ve used the product about 6 times. I only wash my hair about twice a week. I’ve made no changes to any other hair products in my routine. I shampoo, rinse, repeat. Then I apply this product heavy and evenly with my bare hands from tip to root, combing through my hair as I go (note: this is because it makes my hair too dry and unmanageable to apply evenly when I start from the root and work down.) I roll my hair up and leave the product in my hair while I finish bathing, maybe 10 mins or so. I rinse the product thoroughly and have to follow with a second conditioner just to be able to get my fingers through my hair. I also have to use a significant amount of leave in conditioner just to be able to comb my hair. My hair air dries. RESULTS: HAIR COLOR: I noticed a big improvement in the shade of my hair from the first use. By the second application I was quite pleased with the effect on my color. I went from bright carrot orange to light copper red and the color has remained stable since the second application. There is no staining or residue on my hands, body, shower marble, towels, pillows, or clothes. My hair color is even and remains consistent through days of heat styling and product application in between washes. This product does not affect the color of my unprocessed roots at all. HAIR CONDITION: This is why it loses 2 stars. Within moments of applying this product, my hair begins to feel dry like straw. I mean, it’s definitely damaged from the chemical processes of lightening and dying it, but it’s still manageable after each shampooing. As soon as I start working this product into my hair, the texture of it changes and it feels like I have a hay bale on top of my head. I spend way too long rinsing the product from my hair because it’s such a dry matted mess, it’s basically one giant nest of hair that I can hardly get my fingers into. I have to use nearly 5 times as much of my regular conditioner after I use this product just to be able to separate my hair and get my fingers through it. Then I have to use another palmful of my leave in conditioner just to be able to comb it. Once my hair is dry, I can no longer use the heat-comb I used to style my hair with because my hair is so dry and stiff I can’t pull it through my hair evenly enough to style properly. I have started experimenting with my less preferred styling tools and found the curling rod works acceptably, but not the curling iron or any tool I have to pull my hair through. I did skip using this product one wash to see if the texture changes were permanent. I found my hair did still feel somewhat dryer than usual while shampooing, but it responded to my usual conditioner normally, and I was able to use just my usual quarter-size amount and work and comb my hair pretty much like before I started this product. So I expect my hair should revert to it’s baseline once I discontinue this product for good. CONCLUSION: I knew going red was going to require a lot of maintenance. I do love the color this leaves my hair, but I hate the change to the texture of my hair. Now, I’m quitting this product and trying some other color depositing products. HOWEVER, I like the color so much. So if I find the same results to the texture of my hair from other depositing products or if can’t find a new color I like, I would consider coming back to this and making changes to the other products in my hair care line to see if there’s a way to overcome the affects to the texture and manageability of my hair I experienced with this product.

Lathered well and my hair felt nice after.

I have been using this Joico red infused shampoo and conditioner for the last 3 years on my naturally red hair and I love it! But I just found out from Joico themselves that they are discontinuing this. I am so upset because they're concentrating now more on darker hair color, moisturizing Hair products, and gray haired hair Products. There is no other shampoo or conditioner out there like the Joico red infused and I'm so bummed out that I've gotten hooked on this stuff and now it's being discontinued. I can't even find any of the shampoo anymore

I was advised to use this shampoo by my hair colorist when I went red. This has kept my hair looking fresh and red! I knew going red would be a hassle but this shampoo has made my hair look amazing in-between my color appointments! Definitely recommend to all vibrant red heads out there!

So many negative comments that aren’t true. 1. There was no mess or staining. Absolutely none. 2. It left my hair clean and manageable. 3. No scent. That could be good or bad but it was fine for me. 4. I did no notice any appreciable difference in hair colour but that is only after one use so I didn’t expect much. 5. It did no strip existing colour. I am a medium brown with some gray that is coloured copper blonde. I love Joico products and for the price I’ll give this one a try. I used both shampoo and conditioner. They are 2 separate products.

Keeps my died hair looks red like the day it was done well worth buying

I do believe this made a difference after one use. I am using the product to keep up my red colored treated hair. I kept the product on my hair for a few minutes as instructed and it made my hair very soft.

This has kept my red hair vibrant and luscious. I feel super happy about it

I have recently bought a number of different pigment infused shampoo’s and conditioners. The colour of this is fab however, I find the product quite watery in consistency. I was expecting it to be of thicker consistency. It does what it says on the tin, as they say, but not sure it’s worth the price tag
