I’ve just had a go with the new Ojon Co-wash – Ojon Rare Blend Moisture-Rich Cleansing Conditioner to be exact! To say I’m delighted is an understatement. This has totally defied my expectations by giving a brilliant one-action wash and left me with hair that feels clean and looks shiny.
I have used the WEN system.. before really knowing anything about co-washing so I had no clue it was a ‘thing’ and didn’t really get along with it, and another brand whose name I forget that I truly hated AND had to rewash my hair afterwards. When you’re time poor that kind of thing is so frustrating. So, basically, Ojon Co-Wash is formulated without sulfates and glycerin so there is no foam which is odd to say the least. It feels like you’re lightly conditioning your hair rather than washing it (which I suppose you are) and you leave it in either massaging or using a wide-toothed comb for 1 to 2 minutes. I found it rinsed really, really well and blow-dried very nicely too. I used the lightest touch of serum (Kerastase) before blow drying and I’d say the result is very soft feeling hair above anything else. Ojon Co-Wash uses a coconut derived cleanser along with Ojon oil, Tahitian Monoi Oil, Marula Oil, Kalahari Melon Oil – just LOADS of oils, so it’s surprising that my hair doesn’t feel over-oiled!
If you don’t like the idea of co-washing, I’d suggest that Ojon Co-Wash is a very good place to start – it seems cleansing enough (although you don’t get the ‘squeak’) that hair feels properly washed. The best thing about this is the time-saving. Mums will know that odd feeling the first time you leave the house without the pram – it’s like you’ve left a limb behind. I got the same feeling with the Co-Wash; it was all wrong without conditioner and yet the result was all kinds of right. I’m an immediate convert. It launches on 1st April and it will be £21.

I’m really excited to try this as I think that Ojon are a fantastic brand anyway, but this sounds like one of their best products yet! I colour my hair red so this will hopefully stop fading as I’m only rinsing out one product.
Hehe I used mine the other day and I got the feeling you’d like it – Not a hint of wash n go in sight 😉
Gonna try it again tonight and get a post up soon, true love, cutting bath time down so much woohoo

Does your hair last as long as it would with normal shampoo and conditioner before getting greasy? I’m intrigued!
normally I would wash every 2 to 3 days – I am on day 2 now..still happy so I will definitely let it go through tomorrow. x
So is this a shampoo and conditioner in one, it actually sounds really good I love Ojon haircare stuff this sounds worth a y 😀 x

Well, they call it a cleansing conditioner. x
Ohh, have you tried the Palmer’s one? I’m working my way up to this with conditioner rather than specific cowash but I’m curious.
Tried the WEN one but wasn’t a fan… Might give this a go then!
I love Ojon products. Their hair thickening shampoos and conditioners make my thinning hair look full and lush. I also use once or twice a month their Restorative Hair Treatment Plus which has my hair looking healthier than ever before (I’m 44 years old) so that’s a long time waiting for hair products that give fantastic results!!
