Redken All Soft: What It Does for Dry Hair and How to Use It

By Codie Hair, Owner, UKIYO Wānaka. Updated November 2026.

All Soft is Redken's moisture range for dry, coarse or brittle hair. It's built around argan oil to soften, smooth and add shine. If your hair feels rough and dry but isn't actually breaking, All Soft is usually the right call.

What does Redken All Soft do?

The shampoo cleanses gently without stripping, and the conditioner pairs argan oil with amino acids to smooth the cuticle and soften. Heavy Cream is the weekly deep-conditioning treatment, made for dry, coarse or curly hair. The Argan Oil is a multi-use oil you can put on before you wash, as a leave-in, or to finish.

Who is Redken All Soft for?

Dry, thick, coarse or curly hair, hair that's been in the sun and sea all summer, and anyone whose ends feel like straw. Fine hair can use the shampoo and conditioner but should go easy on the Heavy Cream and oil.

Dry and damaged aren't the same thing. If your hair is snapping or stretchy, you need strength, not just moisture: look at Extreme or Acidic Bonding Concentrate.

How to use the All Soft routine, in order

  1. Wash: All Soft Shampoo 300ml. Massage into the scalp and rinse.
  2. Condition: All Soft Conditioner 300ml. Mid-lengths to ends, a couple of minutes, rinse.
  3. Weekly: All Soft Heavy Cream 250ml. Use Heavy Cream instead of conditioner and leave it on for five minutes or so.
  4. Finish: All Soft Argan Oil 111ml. A few drops through damp or dry ends. Also works as a pre-wash treatment on very dry ends.

Which All Soft product should you start with?

  • Start here: shampoo and conditioner.
  • Very dry, coarse or curly: add Heavy Cream once a week and the Argan Oil to finish.
  • Fine but dry: shampoo, conditioner, and one drop of oil on the ends only.
  • Best value: the All Soft routine set with 500ml refills.

Redken All Soft questions we get asked

Is Redken All Soft good for fine hair?

It can be. Use the shampoo and conditioner, keep the oil to the very ends, and skip the Heavy Cream unless your ends are very dry.

All Soft or Extreme?

All Soft is for dry hair that needs moisture. Extreme is for weak hair that breaks. If your hair snaps when you brush it, choose Extreme.

How do I use the All Soft Argan Oil?

Three ways: a few drops on dry ends before washing, through damp hair as a leave-in, or on dry hair to finish.

Does All Soft work on curly hair?

Yes. Heavy Cream is made for dry, coarse and curly hair. For coloured curls, also look at Acidic Bonding Curls.
