They say good hair starts in the shower -- but only if you have the right products. Unfortunately, these hair conditioners do not make the cut. All of them either left TotalBeauty.com readers with limp, greasy hair -- or dry and frizzy strands. Check them out, so you'll know what not to buy if you want beautiful hair in your future.

I've used John Frieda's Brilliant Brunette conditioner. The only thing it did well was bring out my natural reddish-brown highlights. Otherwise, my hair was a tangly, matted mess!!!

Will be sure to avoid these conditioners.

I absolutely LOVE using Garnier Fructis hair styling products, I own almost all of them! :) However, when paired with their shampoo and conditioner (which they say makes it "better" to use) their products weigh down my naturally uber-curly hair and make it look weird! I now use Pantene Nature Fusion Shampoo & Conditioner both in Moisture Balance (because we all know how curly hair drinks moisture like a morning cappuccino!) And when I use that in the shower before distributing Garnier's triple nutrition spray, leave-in conditioner, diffuse to almost-dry and then carefully add in some cream-gel, my hair is that of a goddess! :)

I have used the John Frieda Conditioner on my hair. Was not happy. When I air dried and straightened my hair I had so many flyaways and it just looked unhealthier than normal. I have though used the Garnier conditioner and it worked, maybe not as much as others but it did work.

paying $17 for the conditioner is crazy then finding out it doesn't do a thing, that has to be the worst
