Best Leave-In Conditioner? - Page 5 - The Long Hair Community Discussion Boards

RoseRedDead · October 29th, 2009, 09:23 PM

A little bit of whatever conditioner I'm using for CO, or (once in a blue moon) a smidge of Herbal Essences Hydralicious Reconditioning (I think that's the name - it's purple and contains dimethicone as the only 'cone).

My faves:

Abba Gentle

Giovanni Direct Leave-in

EO Lavender

Beauty without Cruelty Revitalize

The top 2 are old favorites and the bottom two are new ones that I've been getting great results with lately.

At the moment I'm using jojoba oil as a leave in and sometimes Akin Lavender and Anthyllis moisture leave in conditioner. Both seem to be working very well for me

I use Phyto's Phyto9 or a few drops of jojoba oil and my ends feel wonderful. I have heavily damaged ends (bleaches etc.) and I'm trying to keep my lenghts healthy.

Pantene pro-v's nature fusion smoothing creme has done wonders for me. I massage it into my ends every day and since I've started using it havent ever had trouble with dryness or split ends. An I notice it doesnt mess up my styling or weigh down my hair so I always use it after I'm done fixing my hair for the day.

The leave-in that worked best for me so far is the Beauty Without Cruelty one.

I really love Schwarzkopf Bonacure or Glisskur spray leave-ins. Yeah, they're packed with cones but they're sooo good for my hair.

Infusium 23 leave-in worked great for me. My hair was very strong when I used it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find it in stores since relocating earlier this year

biolage hydrotherapie balm. (its not a leave in but you can use it as one)
LOVE IT.
Alchemy's one is quite good too. OR hennawax mask, i just don't wash it out (only available in Aus i think)

I've been looking for a good leave-in for months. My hair is dry, but it gets limp easily even if it's not oily. Conditioners don't make a difference at all, but I CO, so maybe I should look for a conditioner that's more moisturizing. The best leave-in I tried is apricot kernel oil. It's as light and easily absorbed as coconut oil, but smells much better (I hate the smell of pure coconut oil).
