Name of conditioner: Verifen Complex Advance Conditioning Treatment

Where it can be purchased (online, bss): www.hairoil.com or phone in @ 1-800-hairoil

Price Range: $69 for the refill tub or $18 for the 8 ounce tub

Pro's: It doesn’t have to be “doctored up.” It’s 100 percent fabulous!!! However, there is a 10 percent discount.

Con's: Very expensive than my secondary conditioners, but I don’t use it more than twice a month. It can’t be bought in the beauty supply stores, but that’s okay with me because I make sure I order the 40 ounce refill tub one month in advance before I run out. Then there’s an additional charge of shipping by UPS. It’s shipped from New York.

Additional Comments: This is a thick moisture-rich conditioner. It’s highly concentrated. A little goes a long way. I used it consistently for ten years; that is, before I stumbled across this hair care forum. Now I rotate it with other conditioners.
 
Name of conditioner: eluence moisture balance or lustrasilk shea butter cholesterol plus

Where it can be purchased (online, bss): eluence- curlmart or their website, lustrasilk- any bss

Price Range: eluence- $8.00, lustrasilk $2.79

Pro's: both moisturizing, good for detangling, and gives great slip overall and the smell good.

Con's: lustrasilk is not as concentrated as eluence so i had to be a little more heavy handed with lustrasilk.

Additional Comments you can use eluence as a leave-in as well

They sell this in bottles now, no need to buy multiple packets. I think the bottles run about $12 each for a 16oz (at least in NYC they do). :yep:
 
Name of conditioner: Lustrasilk Extra Virgin Olive Oil Conditioner

Where it can be purchased (online, bss): Both! It's a commonly found item in the BSS, but you can get it just as cheap online.

Price Range: $2-$3.50

Pro's: It leaves a nice bounce for the hair, and you can really tell that it's moisturized. I swear.

Con's: Too much can cause unwanted buildup, a little goes a long way, the thicker the hair, the more needed.

Additional Comments (whether it's a protein conditioner or a moisturizing one, if using it other than directed provides better results, etc): It's a moisturizer, and I would not use it alone, I would actually add some EVOO with it lol. I'm an EVOO freak though, so it may vary with you.

This may be a dumb question but how do u "bump" a thread? I'm brand new to this site and don't know all the terminology. Lol.

Its all good!! WELCOME to the forum lady!

There are no buttons or anything to press when you bumb a thread. Just typing a response like "bump" pushes it up on the thread list. For example, this post that Im making right now will "bump" this thread to the top of the list. Go check it on the thread menu. You should see "Best Deep Conditioners for ......." in the 1st or second place on the thread page now. Its just so that that particular thread will have more views. Itll get more views if its on page 1 of the thread menu than if it where on page 16! Did any of what I said make sense? I think I just confused MYSELF!! LOL:lachen:
 
I've been browsing through old threads & getting a little overwhelmed; there are alot of products I'm not familiar with. It'd be a great help if a more comprehensive list was available.

If you'd like to contribute please include:

Name of conditioner: 1)Organic Root Stimulator Replenishing Conditioner (or pack), or 2)good old coconut milk, honey and EVOO (but this is messy)

Where it can be purchased (online, bss): BSS/ Grocery store

Price Range: 1)$7-8? 2) about 5?

Pro's: 1) protein and moisture in 1 step, lots of natural ingredients, smells good, leaves hair soft and strong (when i use beer with it)
2) Soft and strong also, you can move straight into moisturizing after this dc, usually cheap and all natural
Con's: 1)May be too much protein, sometimes hard to find, easy to detangle while DCing 2)can be very messy, and annoying to "cook up" every time you want to DC, not to mention wastage if not used, or having to freeze/defrost rest of mixture to use it. You usually cannot detangle hair as easily while DCing

Additional Comments (whether it's a protein conditioner or a moisturizing one, if using it other than directed provides better results, etc):
1) a little more protein heavy with moisture 2) a little more moisture based, less protein


Thanks in advance ladies! :yep:
 
Name of conditioner: Joico K-PAK Intense Hydrator and Joico Moisture Recovery Conditioner

Where it can be purchased (online, bss): Online, and at ULTA (i think other stores too)

Price Range: $14 - $17

Pro's: Both are very moisturizing AND detangling. The Moisture line uses Hydramine Sea Complex (moisturizing ingredients from the sea that quench dry hair) and the Kpak line features Quadramine Complex (helps rebuild and strengthen hair). I have serious detangling issues but not with these two conditioners :hair:.

Con's: None so far.

Additional Comments (whether it's a protein conditioner or a moisturizing one, if using it other than directed provides better results, etc): The Kpak line is more reconstructive where the Moisture line provides just that. Moisture. I use both under my steamer and w/o when im in a rush.

Oh...im not a natural but moisture is moisture :yep:

I've been natural for nearly two years, and from the very beginning, I've made my own deep conditioner. What has worked perfectly for me has been using one part EVOO, one part honey, and two parts Suave Humectants Conditioner. I leave it on for at least two hours, and wrap my head with saran wrap...if I have the time, I apply heat.

It's reallymoisturizing; my hair can be super dry, but since I've been doing this, I've experienced absolutely not breakage, thank God. It's cheap, it works for me, and it's super easy to mix up a small batch. I love it.

I balance this with an Aphogee two minute reconstructor for strenthening with protein.
 
Name of conditioner: Aubrey Organics White Camellia

Where it can be purchased (online, bss): Whole Foods (and other health stores) as well as online. I think some people get it for really cheap on vitacost.com.

Price Range: 10$ for 11oz bottle.

Pro's: It does exactly what it says it will do. It moisturizes, strengthens, smooths, defines texture, makes detangling a breeze, smells great. It's just all around a great conditioner.
http://www.aubrey-organics.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=109

Con's: None that I can see.

Additional Comments (whether it's a protein conditioner or a moisturizing one, if using it other than directed provides better results, etc): It's definitely moisturizing, with protein ingredients (which help the moisture stay on your hair and strengthen a bit as well). The directions say you can use it on dry hair for 15 minutes or on wet hair for a couple of minutes and it works both ways. I tend to use it on wet hair, in the shower, for about 10 minutes and it works that way as well. I also don't have to use a whole bunch for it to work.

It really is the BEST conditioner I've used. Others I like include Oyin Honey Hemp (great for cowashing and leaving in and detangling) and Giovanni Smooth as Silk (also great for DCing).
