Biolage Matrix Conditioning Balm Review

One thing I don't like about living in Idaho is that it is so dang DRY up here, ugh! Consequently, my hair lacks the moisture it needs, and my regular shampoo and conditioner haven't been doing it for me in this climate, so I decided to invest my moolah into a salon conditioner. I went with the Biolage Matrix Conditioning Balm because I've read so many positive reviews on it that I just had to try it myself. It runs about 20 bucks a jar (I bought mine on base though, so it was tax free, heh) and it looks like this:


I think the price is pretty good for what you get. It's a rather large jar that lasts me a while, but only because I don't use big globs of conditioner every time I shower. My hair's not super thick so that helps as well. The consistency is pretty much like any other conditioner I've used, and the smell is quite heavenly! I don't know how to describe it, I guess it smells like.....plants and a little bit of baby powder lol! Here's what it looks like inside the jar:


After the first use, my hair felt SUPER SOFT! I could already tell the difference as I was running the conditioner through my hair in the shower. It was easier to comb through, less tangled, and most importantly, my hair felt moisturized for once! From then on I pretty much knew that this would be my go-to conditioner. I have to admit, I haven't given up flat ironing my hair so this definitely helps keep my ends moisturized and tangle free.

By the way, I meant to post some progress pictures of my hair growth in the last few months. Here they are:





I'm hoping to reach waist length by next August. Still have ten months to go, but I've definitely been making some progress considering I went from chin length to past bra strap length in 15 months! Crazy growth.
