Oh Kaycee, you just keep posting all these tempting "ingredient questions" and you know I can`t resist (sheesh I`m such a dweeb :P)
Okay, a quick rundown:
water--this one`s obvious
cetyl alcohol--contrary to popular belief, not all alcohols are drying. Cetyl, stearyl and cetearyl (a mixture of the previous two) are emollient moisturizers. They add shine and softness to hair.
glyceryl stearate--an emulsifier/emollient.
PEG-12 distearate--another emulsifying agent that gives the product its consistency.
cetrimonium chloride--this is a quaternary conditioning agent that detangles your hair.
After that we have a variety of natural-sounding extracts, none of which have any proven benefit for hair. They`re in there for marketing appeal only--it`s the chemical-sounding stuff before that really can improve hair. Plus the fennel, hops, balm mint, etc. are too far down on the list to be present in any signifcant quantity.
Bottom line: 3-minute Miracle won`t set your hair on fire--it`s just a basic, strongly scented conditioner. I`ve used it in the past and I did like it. It`s not the most moisturizing thing on the market but it`s perfectly safe.

Aw thanks hon, you know you`re my saviour! And I know, you`ll never let me down where hair products are concerned!! :D
I think I may buy some of that. But over here, in the UK.. there don`t really have any good moisturizing products which I know of, so I will definitely ring my local sallys, which is a supplier.. and see if they have aphogee..
Have a brilliant weekend, honey. xx :>
