V05 Revitalizing Conditioner (443ml) 1. Description
VO5’s Revitalizing Conditioner is positioned as an everyday conditioner formulated to refresh and detangle hair, especially hair that may be dull or in need of vitality. One listing says: “Lightweight, vitamin-rich conditioner … infuses hair with biotin, 5-vitamins formula … ideal for daily use.”
The “443 ml” size (≈ 15 fl oz) is stated in Nigerian market listings for this version.
It falls under VO5’s “Daily” or “Revitalizing” line rather than their intensive treatment or volumizing lines.
2. Format
Size: 443 ml (15 fl oz) in at least some markets.
Jumia Nigeria
Type: Rinse-out conditioner (apply after shampooing, leave for short period, then rinse) meant for regular use.
Packaging: Standard bottle in the VO5 range; accessible as a value size for daily conditioning.
3. Sensory Profile
Feel & Texture:
Described as lightweight and non-greasy in its positioning.
Works as a regular detangling and softening product rather than a deep repair mask.
Effect on Hair:
Key benefits claimed: detangles, smooths, gives manageability and refreshed feel to hair. For example: “detangles and softens” in listing.
Suitable for “all hair types” per listing, especially hair that is “dull or tired” needing a boost.
Limitations / User-Feedback:
On hair-care forums, some users (especially natural/curly hair communities) report that depending on hair type or frequency of use, the conditioner may leave a “waxy” or “residue” feel and build-up may occur over time. For example:
“I adored how it felt for the first few weeks but it seems like now it leaves an almost squeaky, stiff residue.”
On a co-wash thread: “Yes, any VO5 conditioner is suitable for co-washing. The only note I would add is it has … ingredients known to cause itching in some people.”
Some users pointed out that VO5 conditioners contain silicones, heavy conditioning agents or perhaps other ingredients that may not suit all hair types or methods (like Curly Girl Method) without occasional clarifying.
4. Uses & Suggestions
When to use, who it suits:
Good for regular “everyday” conditioning of hair that is not extremely dry/damaged.
Suits hair types that are normal to moderately dry, or need a maintenance conditioner rather than intensive treatment.
If your hair is very fine and you dislike heavy conditioners, this might be a good fit because the description emphasises “lightweight”. If your hair is coarse, high-porosity or severely damaged, you may need to follow up with a richer treatment.
How to integrate into routine:
After shampooing, apply this conditioner to wet hair (towel-damp), focusing on mid-lengths and ends (and possibly roots if your scalp/hair type allows).
Leave on for 1–2 minutes (or as directed) and then rinse thoroughly.
Afterward, style as usual. Because it is a “daily” conditioner, you could use it frequently without it being too heavy in theory.
To get the best benefit: ensure your hair is reasonably clean (i.e., minimal build-up) so the conditioner can penetrate rather than just sit on residue.
Pairing & styling tips:
Pair with a VO5 shampoo in the same “Revitalizing” or “Daily” line for consistency of formula.
If you style heat/weave/relax your hair frequently, you might follow this conditioner with a lightweight leave-in or treatment to handle the damage/styling demands.
If your hair is curly/coily and you follow methods that avoid silicones or build-up, you might use this conditioner but maybe clarify every so often or alternate with a more natural/co-wash friendly conditioner.
5. Helpful Tips
Buying & Authenticity:
Ensure the product is specifically the “Revitalizing / Daily Revitalizing Conditioner with Biotin (443 ml)” version if that is your target. For example the listing shows “Alberto VO5 Daily Revitalizing Conditioner with Biotin – 443 ml Bonus Size”.
Price in Nigeria (at time of listings): around ₦6,750 for this 443 ml size from a seller.
Check cap, packaging, batch code, and that the size label (443 ml) is correct.
Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight (especially important in hot climates like Lagos) to maintain product integrity.
Usage & maintenance tips:
Use the needed amount for your hair length/thickness – too much may cause heavier feel or build-up (which some users report).
If you notice your hair feeling “flat”, “residue-like” or you see tangles re-forming, it may be time to clarify your hair (use a clarifying shampoo) and then return to this conditioner.
If your scalp is sensitive or you react to strong fragrances/preservatives, patch test first — some users report irritation.
Combine with occasional deep conditioner if your hair demands more than “maintenance” (e.g., after heavy styling, colouring, heat damage).
When it might not be ideal / things to watch out for:
If your hair is extremely dry, damaged, chemically processed or you follow a “very gentle/no-silicone” regime, this conditioner may not be sufficient alone or may require clarifying steps because of potential build-up.
Some users of the Curly Girl Method mention VO5 conditioners include ingredients that may not align with their regimen (silicones, polyquats).
If you prefer ultra-minimal ingredient lists or very natural formulations, consider checking the ingredient list carefully (especially if you have sensitivities).
