Tsubaki Premium Repair Conditioner
TSUBAKI's Premium Repair conditioner line on skinsli covers three formulas: Moist & Repair for everyday softness, Volume & Repair for fine or flat hair, and the EX Intensive/Damage Care Repair Treatment for over-processed or color-treated strands. Bottles run 450ml to 490ml, with 1000ml and 1 liter refills for anyone who already owns the pump bottle, plus bundled shampoo-and-conditioner sets for a matched routine. Pick the formula by hair concern first, then the size that fits how you refill.

Buying guide
TSUBAKI Premium Repair conditioner guide
TSUBAKI splits its Premium Repair conditioner range by hair concern rather than a single all-purpose bottle. Here's how the Moist, Volume, and EX Intensive formulas differ, and how to pick a size.
Moist & Repair vs. Volume & Repair
Premium Moist & Repair Conditioner is the everyday pick for dry or coarse hair that needs softness and slip. Premium Volume & Repair Conditioner is built for fine or flat hair, aiming to add body at the root while still repairing the ends. Both sit in the same 450ml to 490ml bottle range, so the choice comes down to whether your hair needs more moisture or more lift.
The EX Intensive and Damage Care line
The Premium EX Intensive Repair Conditioner Treatment and the EX Damage Care and Repair Conditioner Treatment step up from the standard Moist and Volume formulas. They're aimed at hair that's been through more chemical processing, bleach, or heat styling, where a stronger repair treatment matters more than a light daily conditioner.
Choosing a bottle or a refill
TSUBAKI sells the same conditioner formulas in a standard 450ml or 490ml pump bottle and in larger 1000ml or 1 liter refill packs. If you already own the pump bottle from a previous order, the refill works out cheaper per use; first-time buyers should start with the pump bottle so they have somewhere to pour the refill into.
Shampoo and conditioner sets
Several listings bundle the Premium Moist and Repair shampoo with its matching conditioner, and there's a larger set that pairs a mask, an intensive shampoo, and a conditioner chassis. Buying the set keeps the formulas matched to each other, which is worth doing if you're starting the line from scratch.
How to use TSUBAKI Premium Repair conditioner
- Shampoo first and rinse thoroughly.
- Squeeze out excess water, then work the conditioner through mid-lengths to ends, avoiding the scalp.
- Leave on for one to two minutes.
- Rinse well, especially if using the Volume & Repair formula, so roots don't feel weighed down.
Who this conditioner suits
Moist & Repair suits dry, coarse, or frizz-prone hair. Volume & Repair suits fine, flat, or oily-at-the-root hair that still needs conditioning at the ends. The EX Intensive and Damage Care treatments suit chemically treated, bleached, or heat-damaged hair that needs a stronger repair step than a daily conditioner provides.
Refilling to cut down on plastic
The 1000ml and 1 liter refill packs are designed to top up an existing pump bottle rather than replace it, which is standard practice for Japanese haircare lines like TSUBAKI. Keeping one pump bottle and buying refills after the first purchase cuts down on the plastic that ships with every order.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between TSUBAKI Moist & Repair and Volume & Repair conditioner?
Moist & Repair targets dry, coarse hair with extra softness and slip. Volume & Repair is built for fine or flat hair, adding lift at the root while still repairing the ends.
What is the TSUBAKI Premium EX Intensive Repair Conditioner Treatment for?
It's a stronger treatment step above the standard Moist and Volume conditioners, aimed at hair that's bleached, chemically processed, or heat-damaged and needs more repair than a daily conditioner gives.
Should I buy the TSUBAKI conditioner bottle or the refill pack?
First-time buyers should get the pump bottle since the refill pack has no dispenser of its own. Once you own the bottle, the 1000ml or 1 liter refill is the better value per use.
How do I use TSUBAKI Premium Repair Conditioner?
After shampooing and rinsing, squeeze out excess water and apply the conditioner to mid-lengths and ends only. Leave it on for one to two minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
Can I buy TSUBAKI shampoo and conditioner together as a set?
Yes, there are bundled listings that pair the Premium Moist and Repair shampoo with its matching conditioner, plus a larger set that adds a hair mask and an intensive shampoo.
Is TSUBAKI Premium Repair Conditioner safe for color-treated hair?
The EX Intensive and Damage Care Repair Treatment formulas are specifically positioned for chemically processed and color-treated hair, making them a better fit than the standard Moist or Volume conditioner for that concern.
