Do I still need a conditioner after using this shampoo, or is the aloe vera enough?

The shampoo leaves hair with a softer finish and better slip than a stripping cleanser, thanks to the aloe vera juice that remains on the fibre after rinsing. For short hair, fine hair, or hair that isn't heavily damaged, this light conditioning effect is often enough — the hair feels clean, manageable, and not weighed down.

However, the product description calls it "light conditioning without feeling heavy." If your hair is past shoulder length, colour-treated, heat-styled frequently, or naturally very dry and porous, the ends likely need more lipid-rich conditioning (oils, butters, cationic surfactants) than a rinse-off shampoo can deliver. In those cases, apply a conditioner or mask from mid-lengths to ends after shampooing, leaving it on for a few minutes before rinsing. You can also use a leave-in cream or oil on damp ends for extra protection. The shampoo and a separate conditioner serve different roles: the shampoo cleanses the scalp and gives a baseline of softness; the conditioner targets the older, more fragile parts of the hair shaft.
