Yup! I noticed the ingredients were very similar back when I was in college, so to save some money I started using my conditioner as a leave-in.

[@zeynepkymet4673]

The funniest hair rumor is how people explain the mechanics of the “squish to condish” method for me lol. People say the squishing motion “pushes the water into the cuticle” or “forces the conditioner to work with water” and hydrate the hair or whatever but that’s just ridiculous. The reason it works is that you can’t properly rinse off the conditioner with this method- so you’re automatically using your conditioner as a leave-in.

Nooo don't do that! I also have low porosity, very fine low density hair. I use a little of the smoothie then gel on wet hair after washing for my wash and go styler but as an alternative (and I use it as a day 2/3/4/5 refresher spray) mix about 1 part of the shea moisture curl smoothie to 4 parts water in a spray bottle and shake it up a lot, and it makes a really really good lightweight styler! This works because the smoothie is also water based- the first ingredient is water- like a conditioner. So you can water down lots of products and turn them into a spray that way!

I can’t use bands because that’s where my hair breaks but without them my hair mats close to my scalp…and it’s back to protective styling. I’m working on something that includes clay to define my scalp curls.

When it comes to the rinse-out conditioners, I don't use them anymore; I have replaced with the "deep conditioner". It just seems like I'm overdoing it with both, when the two products have the exact ingredients. I've come to learn that it is either/or for the conditioners. A rinse out conditioner may be enough for someone, who just "wants" or "needs" a light conditioning to the hair, considering their hair texture, i.e., the 3A-3C range, but for my type 4B/C hair, the deep conditioner works the best. Now I combine the r/o conditioners I have with HYDROLYZED WHEAT PROTEIN to perform my protein treatment, then do a deep condition. Thanks again for clearing up the difference.

I’m never buying a leave in conditioner again😊❤️thank you thank you, that saves me another $5 ( or more sometimes)

You can skip your rinse out conditioner and just make do with your deep conditioner and leave-in conditioner. However, if you still feel like you don't need a leave-in, you can get a styler that has water as it's first ingredient so as to seal in your moisture properly.

A rumor I've heard that giving your hair different types/sizes of proteins is good (kind of like a well balanced diet for your body)... is there any truth to that?

I don't have any specific brand preference at the moment. I'm using a cheap Brazilian haircare line.

people say you cant use conditioner on locs/ dreads cause it will get stuck in the hair... but i use it, just have to water it down alot and use in a spray bottle ....

Amazing video! My fav conditioners are Keracare Humector which is my deep conditioner. I also use the leave in by the same brand.

I use Wen to shampoo and as a leave in....not that I have much hair as I wear it close to the scalp and cut every 2 weeks.

[@safimarndiaye9739]

my fav leave in is the camille rose coconut water leave in

Favorite leave-in is Pattern Beauty. I would like learn more about bond builders. Several KZbin bloggers have been comparing Curl Smith to Olaplex, but they are being paid by Curl Smith. It would be good to hear from a chemist on this.
