John Masters Organics Honey & Hibiscus Hair Reconstructor: Review

By Tania Reuben

John Masters Organics began creating this upscale line of salon quality organic beauty products in 1991. John believes that harsh chemicals were only created as cheap substitutes for organic compounds that do a better job.

All of their final products must be 75-100 % organic. All essential oils are steam released to maintain the effectiveness of the oils, and plant oils are cold pressed for the same reason. They use no artificial, colors, fragrances or fillers.

They recently sent me the Honey Hibiscus Hair Reconstructor to try on my lovely locks.

With a Diva Total of 14.5 out of 15 points this product is: Divaliscious

8 Points for Skin Deep Low Hazard Rating ~ 3
2 Points for being Organic – Eco-Cert, Organic Crop Improvement, Quality Assurance International.

2 Points for effectiveness – This conditioner left my hair feeling soft, shiny and smelling good.
.8 Point for Texture – This conditioner has a nice thick texture, so it doesn’t end up on the shower floor during application. It doesn’t have a slick feeling on application, yet my hair was easy to comb through after rinsing (and I have a lot of hair at the moment!)

.9 Point for Fragrance – This product really smells great. It’s a slightly spicy floral fragrance. It’s delicate and not overpowering. It leaves your hair smelling delicately yummy.

.5 Points for Packaging Appearance – The entire line of John Master’s Organics looks understated and chic. The Reconstructor is packaged in Dark Brown with white writing.

.3 Points for Packaging Sustainability – The packaging is made of MDPE (2) Plastic, which is recyclable.  All closures are made of HDPE and is accepted at many recycling stations. None of the plastics are made using recycled content, which would be a great next step.

Overall:

This is an excellent conditioner that can be after each shampoo or as a weekly treatment. With ingredients like Capuacu Seed Butter to help moisturize and Kelp Extract to soften smooth and add shine it will leave your hair feeling great.

This is a perfect conditioner for the diva or dude looking for a high end salon product with an eye for taking care of the planet or the performance.

The Honey Hibiscus Hair Reconstructor Retails for $28

    Hey I tried this in your shower last weekend and my frizzled dried out hair hasn’t felt this good in ages!
