Which conditioner is right for you?
Both conditioners share the same botanical foundation. The formula that's right for you depends on your texture.
Gugo Smoothing Conditioner is best for straight and wavy hair — from fine, sleek strands to hair with a natural wave or gentle bend. It smooths, softens, and adds shine without weight.
Gugo Restorative Conditioner is formulated for curly and coily hair — from loose, springy curls to tight coils and kinks. Its richer blend delivers the deeper moisture and slip that denser, more textured hair needs to stay defined, soft, and resilient.
Key Ingredients
Gugo Bark
A revered Filipino botanical long relied upon for scalp vitality and reduced shedding, gugo extract forms the restorative foundation of this formula. It purifies and rebalances the scalp environment, so that richer conditioning can be fully absorbed.
Hydrolyzed Baobab Protein
Derived from one of Africa's most nutritive botanicals, hydrolyzed baobab protein is rich in essential amino acids that fill in gaps along the cuticle, improving tensile strength and defending against the breakage that high-porosity and textured hair are particularly prone to.
Malunggay Seed Oil
Pressed from the seeds of the moringa tree, malunggay is one of the most nutritionally dense botanicals in Filipino tradition. Its high oleic acid content allows it to penetrate coarser, denser strands deeply, replenishing softness and vitality from within while supporting a nourished, balanced scalp.
Shea Butter
Deeply emollient and rich in vitamins A and E, shea butter is one of the most effective natural conditioners for coarser hair types. It softens, seals the cuticle, and delivers the lasting moisture that thicker strands require.
Meadowfoam Seed Oil
A lightweight yet powerfully moisture-retentive oil, meadowfoam seed oil creates a protective seal around each strand to lock in hydration and defend against dryness and humidity throughout the day.
Coffee Extract
Rich in caffeine and antioxidants, coffee extract stimulates circulation at the scalp and protects strands from oxidative damage that can weaken textured hair over time.
Bamboo Extract
One of nature's most silica-dense botanicals, bamboo extract reinforces the hair shaft, adds structural strength, and imparts a natural sheen that carries through even the most voluminous curl patterns.
Rosemary Oil
Rosemary oil supports scalp circulation and a healthy follicular environment, making it a meaningful addition to any formula designed to strengthen hair at the root. Its anti-inflammatory properties also help calm scalp irritation common with drier, denser textures.
