Major Buildup

Normally, I really enjoy Dove products, including their conditioners. When I first used this, I didn't notice anything unusual. After a few weeks, my hair started looking very dull and heavy and oily. I have thick black straight east asian hair that is normally shiny. I was able to braid my hair and it wouldn' budge, no hair ties needed!! People noticed the dullness of my hair. It took me a while to figure out it was the conditioner. Even after a few shampoos without this conditioner, my hair still felt heavy. I ended doing an apple cider vinegar wash to hair to rid the residue, and my hair was shiny and bouncy silky once again.

The ingredients contained dimethicone - which is silicone. This was the first time I threw out a bottle of conditioner, straight into the trash.

I do still use other Dove conditioners, and am quite content. I just read the fine-print ingredients now.
