Hair feels heavy or greasy after use.

Color doesn't seem to be enhanced.
This conditioner is designed to maintain and enhance existing brunette tones, not to change hair color. Ensure you are using it consistently and consider using it with a complementary shampoo. Results may vary based on the original shade and condition of your hair.
Hair still feels dry or unmanageable.
