I've only been a member for a short time, but I have tried he conditioner wash a couple of times and had good results with Suave Professionals Humectant, which is a knock-off of Nexxus Humectress. It seems to me hat a clarifying conditioner might defeat the purpose of avoiding 'poo and moisturizing the hair.

To each his own. :)
I tried clarfying conditioner (VO5) about 1 1/2 years ago when I found out about the curly girl routine, but it left my hair dry, so I use ACV to clarify.

I use some of the VO5 conditioners (Apple, peach, tangerine, strawberry, freesia,and several of the Natural Oasis), White Rain Pearberry and Passion Flower and Suave Chamomile, Aloe or Milk & honey.

I don't care for the VO5 Hydrators or the Suave Humectant or Suave Coconut.

I never use shampoo unless I am neutralizing after a texturizer retouch.

Well if I want major curl definition I use Pantene R&N

But for the best I would say a split between the VO5 conditioners (strawberry or peach) and Garnier Fructis 3 min Masque (Im in awe with the smell
)

Has anyone used the Dove conditioner for a CW? What were the results? I love the shampoo, but I'm not sure how the conditioner would work. I'm trying to use up products before buying new ones, so when my Suave Humectant is finished, I'll try the dove, and I'll let you know how it goes. Oh btw, the suave humectant made my hair kinda hard.

I love to use the Dove intense moisturizing co for my co washes. It leaves my hair so so very soft and moisturized.

I use about 4 differant kinds of suave conditioners. I use to have VO5 conditioners but I discovered it makes my scalp itch for some reason so I stopped.

Re: what conditioner works best for conditioner wa

Try Cream of Nature shampoo(yep shampoo), it will actually give a conditioner wash result if you use cool to luke warm water to rinse it out
After using it I normally don't need to use a conditioner, although I do from time to time.

My scalp hates conditioner, but it did perfectly fine with Lustrasilk's Tea Tree Cholesterol conditioner. Also, it has no mineral oil. It did nothing to actually "condition" my hair, just clean.

Suave Milk and Honey
Tropical Coconut
Ocean Breeze
VO5 Cucumber and Melon
Strawberries and Cream
Lime and Kiwi (doesn't dry out my hair)
Creamy Fresh Peach
Aussie 3 Min. Miracle
Pantene S&amp;S for my conditioner wash </font>

I like products that state they can be used daily, they are usually not heavy and leave the hair soft and moisturized. I have had excellent results with the Herbal Essence line, particularly the Fruit Fusions hydration and Intensive Blends for dry hair. I like the Intense Balm as well, but don't use it daily. Neutrogena's Triple Moisture is good for daily condit wash as well as the Clean Replenishing condit (pink one).

<font color="purple">I agree with you. I love Herbal Essences' Intensive Blends Conditioning Balm as a deep conditioner on a weekly basis. The Fruit Fusions formula for dry/damaged hair is ok, but I don't use it that often anymore. Next time, it's going to be the conditioner for Permed/Color Treated Hair. I love the way the HE line smells after using. Toodles </font>
