A smoothing conditioner for thick, coarse and unruly hair — Biomimetic Keratin Protein, Monoi Oil, Brazil Nut Oil and a full stack of butters and fatty acids rebuild, restore and fight frizz in 1 to 2 minutes.
The Moda Team Review
Smooth Again Rinse is where the conditioning work of the SMOOTH regimen gets serious. Biomimetic Keratin Protein is the standout addition over the Wash — it delivers targeted damage repair by mimicking the structure of the hair’s own keratin, bonding to damaged areas and leaving the hair looking and feeling restored with added shine. Brazil Nut Oil adds omega fatty acid density that fights frizz and may tame unruly curls while reducing breakage. The Murumuru Butter, Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter and Mango Butter stack provides the moisture saturation that keeps thick, coarse hair’s cuticle from lifting and absorbing environmental humidity.
The result after consistent use is a measurable change in how the hair behaves: less puff after washing, faster drying time, and styling products working more efficiently because the cuticle is no longer fighting the environment. Kevin Murphy designed the SMOOTH regimen so that each step contributes something the others cannot — the conditioner’s Keratin Protein does repair work that butter alone cannot achieve.
Why Moda Carries This
As a White Haven Kevin Murphy salon, Smooth Again Rinse is the first upgrade we suggest for clients who rely entirely on styling products to manage frizz. Managing frizz at the styling stage is expensive in product and time. Managing it at the conditioning stage — when the cuticle is open and receptive — is where the real work happens. Consistent use of this conditioner reduces what the styling step needs to do.

Moda Pro Tip
Leave it in for the full 1 to 2 minutes. Thick, coarse hair has a tightly packed cuticle layer and the Biomimetic Keratin Protein and butters need contact time to penetrate. Rinsing immediately after application means you are mostly rinsing off surface coating rather than getting the deposit that matters. Apply, clip the hair up, finish the rest of your shower, then rinse.
Not the Right Fit If...
If your hair is fine or medium, this is too rich for daily use. Angel Rinse or Hydrate Me Rinse will condition without the weight that Smooth Again’s butter stack brings. Smooth Again Rinse is built specifically for the density and coarseness of thick, high-porosity hair that genuinely needs that level of moisture input.
How To Use
- Apply to freshly washed hair.
- Leave for 1–2 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Follow with Smooth Again leave-in treatment on towel-dried hair.
- Use daily as part of the SMOOTH regimen.
