Best Leave in conditioner!

Since I'm obsessed with my hair, I still try to love my hair... I read a lot about hair products and try a lot! Not all a succes, you can say almost nothing did succed!

I get really confused, I spend a lot of money but I'm still not satisfied! I want a good leave in, besides my home made leave in. A good leave in and not too expensive! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

What is your favorite and which do you recommend?

I like to use Organix Coconut Milk Leave-In conditioner. It comes in a spray bottle, keeps my hair moist, smells FABULOUS, and costs about $6. You can get it at any pharmacy (Duane Reade/Rite Aide) or Target.

My homemade leave-in works great, too.. I mixed Herbal Essence Hello Hydration Conditioner, water, & olive oil in a spray bottle and it works wonders. I don't have exact measurements..I mainly just eyeball it.

MzLaLaRochelle, I see it says you used to like Organix Coconut Milk Leave in.. Do u stilll like it? I just bought the shampoo and conditioner and was going to buy the leave in also.. Just curious. I wil try that homemade mixture as well...Any conditionere would probably work. I am also looking for a great leave in...

No, not 'use to like', but rather I 'like to use'..lol Unlike you, I have never tried the shampoo or conditioner (although it's next on my PJ list), but I use the OCM leave-in religiously. Also, the homemade mixture works well when I want to do two strand twists, but I don't want to/have the time to co-wash. Hope that helps! I'm still learning myself..

My favorite of all time is Kinky Curly Knot Today. For me it speaks for itself and it's the only product that I haven't ever seen a bad revue for.

Giovanni Direct Leave In is my favorite! I love to use it in conjunction with coconut oil.

Cantu shea butter = yes it might leave a residue if u mix it with other products but alone it works magic on my hair!

I mix a little aohc with water then shake it up and spritz.

Which one has the most natural ingredients?

Of all the products listed on this page, Oyin and AO are the most natural and the two I like most - along with KBB deep condish... Those are really the only conditioners I use.

I love love LOVE Oyin Honey Hemp

along with KBB Hair Milk


But for drugstore/BSS brands...Garnier Conditioners. Organix Conditioners, Shea Moisture Leave-In

How do you use castor oil as a leave in? I have some and with love to do this.

I use the castor oil (after cowashing) while my hair is damp. I apply it in sections right before i twist. It is sooo moisturizing! It leaves my hair super soft when it dries and i just got my hair pressed out at the beauty shop yesterday for the first time since i went natural 2 years ago and it is so silky, soft and smooth! I honestly believe it had something to do with my using castor oil religiously. I love it

Taliah Waajid's Protective Mist Bodifier - love this spritz, has olive oil in it
Taliah Waajid's Enhancing Herbal Conditioner
Curls Quenched Curls
Oyin Honey Hemp conditioner
My Honey Child's Organic Shea Hair Paste
Aubrey's Organics Honeysuckle Rose

I only use a couple of Taliah Waajid's products (the ones that are all natural). Although the line claims to be all natural, several items contain sulfates and mineral oil/petrolatum. The conditioner and regular mist are OK.

I love the Kinky Curly Knot Today Leave In Conditioner!!! I have been thinking about trying Giovanni Direct Leave-in since I have heard so many good reviews. I am trying to spare my husband and not buy any new products but I feel the PJ in me sparking up . . and I may have to give the Giovanni Direct Leave-in a try!!
