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.
