Our Take
A conditioning co-wash that blends the gentle cleansing of the Classic Co-Wash with the nourishing properties of Jamaican Black Castor Oil. Designed for curlies who want the JBCO system's scalp and hair benefits even at the cleansing step. Protein-free. Best for medium, coarse, or coily textures (3b–4c). As with all co-washes, alternate with a clarifying shampoo periodically to prevent buildup.
