[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After seeing how well the Kristin Ess Peptide Protect Shampoo and Conditioner worked on my locs, I wanted to love the leave-in too, but I’ll be honest, I was skeptical from the start. With locs, anything that claims to "coat" or "soften" can be a slippery slope. I don’t want buildup. I don’t want weight. And I definitely don’t want to lose that fluffy, fresh-washed feeling I love. So, I tested it out lightly, using a small amount. I misted through the mid-length to ends of my locs on damp hair. At first, it was promising. Light, fragrant, and my hair felt smooth and hydrated. I thought, “Okay, maybe this is the perfect trio.” But the more I used it over time, especially on days I felt my hair needed extra moisture, I noticed it started to weigh down my locs. That airy, clean softness from the shampoo and conditioner combo was fading. My hair wasn’t dirty, but it didn’t feel as fresh either. It’s not a bad product, and it’s actually a really good leave-in for loose natural textures or light refreshes. But for locs, you have to be careful. A little goes a long way. And honestly, I’m still not 100% sold on it being a staple in my loc routine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great condition for a great price. It leaves hair silky smooth and has a nice scent to it. It’s not easy finding hair products that are both a good value and works really well, but this fits the bill. Definitely worth trying.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this hair care line by #kristeness for a month now and I really like it! It protects from fading with UV filters, doesn’t weight my hair down with silicones, and has great ingredients like peptides for a reasonable price. Our family already uses other products from the brand but this one is a nice complement to my specific hair needs. Doesn’t hurt that the packaging is nice to look at too! @influenster #complimentary #KristinEssPlus #WhereSalonMeetsScience #KristinEssHair @kristinesshair
Leaves my hair soft and protected!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This spray was fantastic! The bottle was nice and sleek. I really like the design of this line. I have curly and sometime frizzy hair so I must use a leave in on top of other products in order to keep my hair manageable. The smell of this spray is wonderful. I have used this and allowed my hair to air dry and my curls looked great. They were well defined and not frizzy or poofy at all. I have also used this before blowdrying and straightening and my hair was frizz and fly away free. It left my hair feeling soft and not greasy which is great. It can be hard to find a product with the ability to soften and control without coming out greasy. Great product will definitely purchase again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This leave in conditioner is a go to between washes when I need a boost of hydration. Its spray in format is perfect to allow for even application. It has a nice light scent and doesn’t leave my hair greasy or heavy feeling. It also works great to tame my daughter’s hair after her dance competitions.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Kristin Ess Peptide Protect Anti-Fade Leave-In Conditioner, and it’s quickly become a staple in my hair routine! First off, the dark purple packaging with gold details is absolutely stunning—so chic and luxe. The formula itself is lightweight yet super effective, making my hair feel soft, smooth, and hydrated without any greasiness or heaviness. It’s perfect for detangling, reducing frizz, and adding an extra layer of protection for color-treated hair. Plus, it smells amazing! I received this for free from Influenster and Kristin Ess in exchange for my honest review, and I can honestly say my hair feels healthier and more manageable with every use. If you’re looking for a leave-in that protects, strengthens, and keeps your hair silky soft, this one is definitely worth trying!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the lineup and I must say I am impressed. The shampoo and conditioner are perfect for colored hair and maintaining shine. The leave in is great for moisture and can be used as a heat protector before using hot tools.I love the color of the packaging but very hard to determine how much is in there @influenster #complimentary #KristinEssPlus #WhereSalonMeetsScience #KristinEssHair @kristinesshair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A little goes a long way. It works better if you spray it in your hand first instead of directly on hair. Not to fond of the nozzle. Just don’t want to use too much. Good scent and value
A must have for your hair routine!
