Overview
Not a lightweight, clean-label mask, Queen Helene's cholesterol cream is a classic heavy conditioner with cholesterol and lanolin. It restores softness to dry, coarse and chemically treated hair and helps smooth strands for styling.
Rich conditioning makes coarse, relaxed or overprocessed hair feel soft and move again. Those avoiding mineral oil, parabens or dyes will find all three in the ingredients, and the sulfate-free label conflicts with the listed SLS.
Who it's for
Coarse, relaxed and heavily processed hair will gain softness and easier styling. Those with fine hair or strict ingredient preferences should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Very rich conditioning
- Cholesterol and lanolin
- Softens coarse hair
- Contains mineral oil and parabens
- Artificial dyes listed
- Sulfate claims conflict
Performance notes
Cholesterol and lanolin coat the hair with lipids, which softens rough cuticles and helps hold moisture. The heavy texture suits thick hair most, since fine hair can be weighed down.
