I have only tried the Milk and Honey Conditioner.
I guess you could say I use it on a somewhat regular basis (when I remember, I use it as a pre-poo treatment)
I dont love it, but it's pretty good for a cheapie conditioner.
The only other one I want to try is the Tropical Coconot Conditioner.

 

[LABETT]

I have only tried and love 2 of the Suave Conditioners,Milk & Honey and Citrus Smoothie.

I have tried

Milk & Honey-- /images/graemlins/love.gif it, it's a staple in now when I wear my hair down & curly. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Tropical Coconut--also a staple leave in, used when my hair's up.
Vanilla Floral--I can take or leave this one, doesn't seem as moisturizing as the first two.
Awapuhi--hated it. It made my hair hard and the smell gave me a headache. /images/graemlins/down.gif /images/graemlins/barf.gif
Humectant--liked it but it wasn't a favorite. I like the Sally's version better.
Salon Formula--really liked it but it's hard to find in my area. It works as well as Milk & Honey IMO.
Citrus Smoothie--like it as a clarifying conditioner. I only used it for CW.
Aloe Vera--liked it, too. I got this as a swap at one of our meetings (thanks 'Sha /images/graemlins/smile.gif ) She added EVOO to the one I got. The slip was very, very nice. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[Angelicus]

The following stopped working on my hair /images/graemlins/frown.gif :
Suave Coconut, Milk & Honey, Apple.

Suave Humectant was a winner but I haven't used it since the beginning of the year. In addition, Suave Moisturizing Conditioner was nice. /images/graemlins/smile.gif I loved the smell of Ocean Breeze-- I used it daily during my Bahamas trip /images/graemlins/love.gif The apple one smelled only ok /images/graemlins/ohwell.gif

I'd like to try the Vanilla Floral Conditioner & Awapuhi.

 

[lowkeyhomie]

[Bunny77]

Where do I begin??

-Balsam and Protein -- great smell, great slip, but frizzed my hair out.
-Citrus Smoothie - AMAZING. JUST AMAZING. My favorite, hands down.
-Freesia -- Got this in my closet, haven't tried yet.
-Lavender -- Like using nothing in my hair.
-Mango Peach -- Not bad... won't buy again because I like CS.
-Milk and Honey -- Jury is still out. Great smell, slip, but I think it frizzes my hair.
-Ocean Breeze -- Sitting in my closet, waiting to be tried.
-Tropical Coconut -- Very nice, although I think I prefer V05's Coconut Pina Colada. My hair likes coconuts.
-Tropical Kiwi -- See Mango Peach.
-Vanilla Floral -- Tried this a long time ago, was like Mango Peach. Willing to try again.
-Cucumber & Melon -- Got this in my closet, awaiting trial.
-Awapuhi -- Also sitting in my closet.

 

[blue_flower]

I've tried Milk & Honey and 2 Minute Deep Recovery and I really like them. Citrus Smoothie did nothing for my hair; it was too watery. I wasn't impressed with Awapuhi, Vanilla, nor Humectant.

 

[simplycee]

Love Humectant.
Love Milk and Honey
Tried and wasn't impressed with Awaphui.
Tried and wasn't impressed with Tropical coconut.

 

[Poohbear]

I have only tried Suave Naturals Tropical Coconut Conditioner. It was good at first but then it stopped working for my hair. /images/graemlins/ohwell.gif

When I first started using it, I used it as a pre-shampoo treatment. I also used it as a conditioner wash when I was seeing what conditioner washes did for my hair, but I don't do co-washes anymore. Then, I started being inconsistent with using it and seldom use it at all now.

After hearing about you (hairlove) using the Suave Professionals Awauphi and the Humectant, makes me want to try it one day. I also wanted to try Suave Milk & Honey COnditioner as well. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[foxybronx]

I have tried…

Daily Clarifying

[Survive4]

Milk and Honey - bought the HUGE bottle at Tar-Jay yesterday. Love it!!!! /images/graemlins/clap.gif

I want to try the Tropical Coconut and the strawberries and cream. (the hubby loves strawberries) /images/graemlins/wink.gif

 

[WesternEyes]

Mango Peach - tried and liked! smelled good.
Milk and Honey - mixed it with honey, worked pretty good.
Lavender - forgot how good it works, but loved the smell.
2 Minute Deep Recovery - wasn't that deep....gave this away.

Smoothing Conditioner - one of the best inexpensive conditioners i've used. the smell, though, i couldn't take. smelled like white diamonds.

Awapuhi- liked and liked the smell.
Humectant - like and still use as my first conditioner.

 

[reformatio]

I have used the Milk and Honey. I was not impressed /images/graemlins/down.gif. While in my hair it felt as if it was doing a good job but, as soon as I rinse it out my hair felt coarse and unconditioned.

 

[InsertCleverNameHere]

I've used pretty much all the Naturals...I can't say any of them worked any worse or better on my hair...they all feel so similar on my hair that I usually just pick a flavor of the week.

I also used the Humectant and while I liked it, I still usually opt for one of the Naturals becuase they're cheaper /images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Kha]

Aloe Vera: I'd like to try
Fresh Mountain Strawberry: tried it and hated it
Milk and Honey: used to love it, but it stopped working on my hair
Tropical Coconut: this was great at first, then stopped working
Vanilla Floral: this is probably the worst one and wasn't too fond of the smell
Cucumber & Melon: have it, but haven't tried it yet
Amplifying: tried it and didn't really care for it, no slip
Awapuhi: I this conditioner as a leave-in and styling cream, I use this every now and then
Color Care: tried before, bad smell and didn't work
Humectant: I this conditioner, I use it almost everyday!

ETA: (1-27)
Smoothing Conditioner: tried it multiple times, don't like it.
Humectant: this conditioner is starting to not be so great...probably won't purchase anymore for awhile after I use up my current supply.

So far, Suave conditioners work pretty much the same on my hair...no huge difference. (Moisture, nice curl formation, & yummy /images/graemlins/lick.gif smelling hair)

 

[miracle]

I've used Suave Humectant, BioBasics, Awapuhi and 2 Minute Deep Recovery Conditioner. Of all of them, I like the 2 Minute Deep Recovery Conditioner the best.

 

[angellazette]

I just bought a the following, they were .77 cent.

Aloe Vera - I'm going to use this for CW, I have high hopes for this.
Milk & Honey - My mom bought it, I may give it a try.
Juicy Green Apple - the smell is

I would just use it for the smell alone.

and the Daily Clarifying Shampoo

 

[BLESSED1]

I'm currently in love with the milk n honey I rotate it with dove intensive moisture conditioner for CW's

OT I love the suave daily clarifying shampoo too!

 

[CocoaButterflyy]

I use the tropical coconut for everything...conditioner washes, as a base when I make conditioning concotions, as a regular shampoo, etc

that's pretty much the only one I've tried and use consitantly the other one I tried was the professionals humectant conditioner and I used that to protect my hair when I was swimming daily

 

[mochamadness]

I love both the tropical coconut and milk & honey. I stock up on these two. They provide great slip. I think I'm gonna try the aloe one next

 

[Tracy]

Balsam and Protein
Daily Clarifying
Salon Formula
Volumizing
Naturals
Aloe Vera - would like to try
Citrus Smoothie - wasn't impressed and didn't like the smell too much.
Freesia
Fresh Mountain Strawberry - Ok, but not as much slip as I'd have liked.
Juicy Green Apple
Lavender
Mango Peach - same as citrus smoothie. It WAS good, but not as good as others I've tried.
Milk and Honey -- This is a staple.
Ocean Breeze
Passion Flower
Sun-Ripened Raspberry
Tropical Coconut -- I have trouble finding this one but I do like it. I stock up when I can find it.
Tropical Kiwi
Vanilla Floral -- I also like this one. Mostly the scent tho. The slip etc. is just ok on me.
AromaBenefits
Citrus and Ginseng
Cucumber Melon - No likey.
Performance Benefits
2 Minute Deep Recovery
Fruit Energy Fortifying
Smoothing Conditioner
Professionals
Amplifying
Awapuhi
BioBasics - same as Humectant, below.
Color Care
Humectant - despite the raves on this one, I wasn't impressed. I didn't like the smell and it was just "ok' on my hair. I've been finding ways to use it up - mostly as a post deep conditioner or a leave in, but I won't repurchase. Suave's knockoffs suck overall IMO. If you've used the real deal (the brands they are trying to approximate) there really isn't any comparison.
