Okra

Okra is for hair in phenomenally bad condition, hair which has been bleached or coloured too often, hair which is naturally fizzy, hair which has been permed, heated and hot-curled into submission. It's full of plant infusions to help you get your hair into shape, including Okra, the green vegetable with white seeds in the middle. If you boil it, it turns into a mucilage which softens up mistreated hair. Nettle, vinegar and rosemary oil make hair shiny again and help tone the scalp. Use it when you've done horrendous things to your hair and are ready to apologize.

This. Conditioner. Is. Fantastic.

Over the course of my life I have struggled greatly with my unruly, curly, dry, frizzy hair. I've tried chemical straightening/relaxing, pomades, serums, deep conditioning masks, and "repairative" masks, all to no avail.
Until NOW.

Okra is a godsend. The first time I used it, I cried when I looked in the mirror, because I didn't even have to straighten my hair; it looked really nice just being curly and soft.
Okra has given me the ability to get out of the shower and get on with my life, without having to blow dry and straighten my crazy mane just to look presentable.

Like all my favorite LUSH products, Okra has given me the confidence to be loud and proud of my natural self.
No more time spent fussing over imperfections when I know that my hair is soft and smooth, my face is bright and clear, my skin is soft and supple, and, above all, I smell FANTASTIC.

    Comments about LUSH Okra:

    I Just received this product and after use I was really disappointed. Even though my hair was a bit soft from it, it made my hair look gross and frizzy. I believe it does not live up to the description of what it is suppose to do. Will never buy again!

    Comments about LUSH Okra:

    I was really skeptical the first time I used this. It's very thin and I couldn't believe it would smooth my really frizzy, curly hair. BUT IT DID. I use a fraction of what i normally would with other brands and it does much better! My hair has more bounce than I'm used to but I'm not sacrificing shine and smooth curls! Not really keen on the scent in the shower but during the day my hair smells great!

      Comments about LUSH Okra:

      I just got a bottle of this last week and people have been complementing my super shiny hair and wanting to touch it. I dye my hair a lot and blow dry and straighten it everyday. I stopped using shampoo you buy from major retailers and I have definately noticed a difference using Lush shampoos and conditioners. This is by far my favorite conditioner and seems to be fixing my dull yucky damaged hair.

        Comments about LUSH Okra:

        Didn't know what to expect from this product. It seemed thin and I didn't think it would do much. I have long gray/white hair and it can get really dry especially at the ends. I have to shampoos almost every day because of exercising. This conditioner delivers in all the ways I needed it too. I don't think I will need a deep conditioner using this daily. It is gentle and leaves my hair healthy,shiny and soft and my husband mentioned how nice it smelled. Love it!

            I don't think this conditioner is too light at all, nor do I think the smell is totally horrbile. I used it for the first time today and before I even dried my hair I could tell that it tamed my tangles and it added shine. I actually like the smell, its very earthy.

                    Comments about LUSH Okra:

                    I have very fine and thin hair. At the same time, it's damaged very easily. I only blow dry, but my ends fry pretty fast. It's hard for me to find a conditioner that helps my hair and yet doesn't weigh it down.

                    At first this seemed too runny to do the job. Even once I put it in my hair, I felt like it probably wasn't going to be amazing. IT IS! The ends of my hair have never looked so healthy with so little effort on my part. It only takes a small amount to really do the job. And my hair is still light and bouncy! I don't think I'll ever stop using this product.

                    The smell... I thought it smelled kind of odd and maybe rubbery at first, but I finally placed it. It smells like Juicy Fruit gum. I don't really think it's good or bad, just interesting. I'm not a fan of the flavor of the gum either though. The smell does linger a tiny bit in my hair, but it's not strong or offensive.

                        I have waist-length, processed, straight, slightly coarse hair that is pretty dry and straw-like on its own. No more! I started using Okra a few months ago and simply cannot believe the difference. My hair is now sleek and glossy and soooo soft. People are constantly asking me if I have "done something" to my hair because it looks so bright and shiny. I have used at least 30 different conditioners in my life (some way more expensive than this one) but Okra is by far the best conditioner I have ever found for my hair. Thank you Lush, my search for hair heaven is finally over.

                          Love the smell, like warm spices and cloves, classic nettles smell. However, very thin and runny, have to use quite a lot to get good coverage. I have been mixing it with a neutral conditioner to prolong the bottle, since no LUSH store nearby.
                          scent softly stays for few hours.
                          Love it, but wish it were thicker and creamier.

                                As a natural woman with hair of color, it's at times a CHALLENGE to find products that work well but my locks LOVE this conditioner! It softens tremendously, adds a soft shine and bounce. It visibly refreshes the hair and replenishes health. I also ADORE the spicy sweet earthy aroma of this concoction. It lingers and just smells fresh and delish. Don't let the name fool ya, there's nothing icky about this product!

                                  This product is not as good as other Lush conditioners, however it is better than what can be found in drugstores. The smell is not bad, it is strong -- reminiscent of Tsua Wen H'ua (sp?) but Okra is not as powerful a conditioner, of course.

                                      I am in love with this! Smells wonderful, best conditioner ever.. My hair has recently been thinning and it pulls out with brushing, i hav ebeen using New shampoo, this just adds to the strength and softness of existing hair.

                                        This one is a teensy tiny bit heavier than Veganese, but still a light conditioner that gets the job done. The best part about it is the smell really stuck around in my hair afterwards, and I really liked that.

                                        I'm so happy to have discovered Okra! This is the best of all LUSH's conditioners for my hair. Leaves my hair soft and silky AND eliminates tangles! Has a light fresh herbally scent that doesn't compete with other scents. I love it so much that I will place an online order even though my local store is only 10 minutes away!

                                          I like to pair this with Antiphilitron, and no combination gets my hair shinier. Soft and smooth too! It does a great job taming my fly-aways. Plus, it may be an acquired taste, but I think this smells even better than American Cream does on my hair, and it lasts just as long.
