Hello everyone,

I would like to share this with everyone. My hair is really dry due from chemical treatments and I always use to condition and put gloss and serum on my hair and it's still dry sometimes. I just recently start using my regular hair condioner Claroil 5x conditioner for dry damaged hair, I use it first after my shampoo and rinse it off and then towel dried my hair and use it as a leave-in and I still use my serum afterward but I think that this makes my hair more moisturize and at least look like it, I'm thinking of trying other conditioner like Pantene Slick and Smooth. Does anyone else other than me who do this with success? and can someone recommend a really good conditioner that makes the hair silky? thanks alot

I love using conditioners as leave-ins. It works great on my hair, and the slip is incredible. I've used Pantene Smooth and Sleek, and that's a great one too. I'm glad it's working for you.

I usually take some conditioner and put in a spray bottle with water and a little oil. Do you guys use it straight? Do you just apply a dallop and work it through your hair? I have to try this sometime.

I use it straight. I place a dallop in my hands, rub them together and work it through my hair.

Folks rave about using Humectress this way.

Yep, I use humectress straight from the bottle and it is awesome. I also do what hairlove does with other conditioners. I love to mix, sebastian slinky, almond oil, and water together for a water leave-in/detangler.

I use Headress as a leave-in after conditioning with Humectress and I find it to be a little different. Headress seems to be more detangling than Humectress is, although Humectress has detangling properties too.

I do this with Pantene. I also do the spray bottle deal with Dominican Conditioners. I don't add oil though.

It is a good way to get the slip of the conditioners you like - post wash.

I do this with Pantene, Humectress, and Keracare Humecto. Works great.

silvergirl, headdress is volumizing while humectress adds slip and detangling. I use a little oil w/headdress to prevent dullness.
