Organic Jaguar Natural Conditioner
Summary
Organic Jaguar Natural Conditioner scores 92/100 -- a clean, plant-oil-forward conditioner with one of the best-evidenced conditioning ingredient stacks available. Zero sulfates, zero parabens, zero phthalates, zero synthetic fragrance, zero phosphates. The nourishment system is genuinely strong: camellia (tea seed) oil (high in oleic acid and polyphenols; the traditional East Asian hair-care oil), castor oil for cuticle conditioning, and a vitamin E + panthenol (B5) pair that has the strongest clinical backing of any softness/elasticity combo on the market (Greaves 1999). Aloe vera, vegetable glycerin, and honey round out the humectant stack. Biotin supports keratin synthesis. The score sits just below the BASED Conditioner (96) only because the full INCI is not visible to verify the cationic conditioning agent, which is the one ingredient most likely to determine whether a conditioner formula is truly clean -- Organic Jaguar's broader product line suggests they would choose a clean option like guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride.
