amika

Color-Lock Conditioner

The teal one. For hair you have just paid to have coloured, to slow the fade. Nothing to offer hair that is not coloured.

9.2 oz, around $28. Color-treated hair, Dryness, Straight hair, Wavy hair

SephoraUltaAmazon

Olaplex

No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner

The conditioner half of the everyday pair. Same job as the No. 4 shampoo: keep bonds where a treatment put them. Light rather than rich, so dry hair wants something heavier alongside it.

8.5 oz, around $34. Damaged hair, Color-treated hair, Heat styling, Breakage
