Anyone Ever Use a Conditioner as Moisturizer..

[MizaniMami]

Other than in a spray bottle?

I am out close to being out of Profectiv breakfree (which is my heart!) and won't be repurchasing for a few weeks and I have some Humecto that I want to try as a moisturizer. I wash twice weekly so buildup won't be an issue.

Anyone do this?

Well I dont use Humecto, but I do use Elucence MB conditioner as a moisturizer, too. My hair seems to like it.

Is the Profectiv Breakfree a protein contitioner? I have the healthy ends that I use a couple times a week and I'm thinking of buying this also...do you use it everyday?

BreakFree is a leave-in conditioner. Girl i use it everyday,twice a day, now that I am bunning. It is kinda heavy which I like and it makes my hair soft.

My hair doesn't even notice the protein but it does make it feel strong.

yep, i use it every day, sometimes i skip a day if i've used it over a total of 3 days to avoid greasyness. maybe on the 3rd day i use water, KC oil moisturizer and then the coconut oil

Thanks, I think I'll buy it. Oh, to answer your question, I used to use my old cheapie conditioner as a moisturizer and it worked just fine, but when I did this I was Co-washing like every other day.

I use Nexxus Humectress as a conditioner and a moisturizer on my natural hair.

Well, I only recently realised oil doesn't count as a moisturiser..........
so have been using Nexxus Humectress since then, under the oil. I put half a pump to a pump of it on my wet hair.
I can't really tell the difference, but I feel 'hair peace of mind' knowing I'm not drying out my hair

yep. i recently started using suave strawberry under my organics carrot oil cream. i usually rinse with water the day after and my hair has been sooooo soft.

I have used Proclaim Aloe & Shea Butter Conditioner and Suave Milk & Honey as leave-ins. They both can do double duty!

I just recently started doing this on my natural hair and it works great. The only thing you have to worry about it build-up, but since you wash twice a week, this shouldn't be a problem. HHG.

I use my conditioners as moisturizers all the time (except when I am wearing my hair down).

 

[Ebonygurl00]

I was doing this for two months with Elucence MB, Vo5, and Suave. My hair would airdry hard. Then I tried to use less conditioner. My hair felt a little better, but not great. Last week, I tried using water and olive oil (any kind of oil works), and my hair has NEVER felt better! I spray my hair with bottled water, then put the oil on. Try the water and oil, it may work for you!

Kinda OT, what do you use when you wear your hair down?

Ya, know, I've tried that a while back and it jsut didn't work for me. But I will try it again later on.

That's why I love Humectress, because I can use it either way.

[divya]

Yes, I generally use Biotera.

I use Humectress for the past few nights. I mixed some with EVOO and a few squirts of Aphogee Keratin Spray. It feels funny going on, kinda sticky, but once my hair absorbs it feels really soft and nice. Great cheap alternative.

Okay I quit using Humectress. made my hair entirely too soft and prone to breakage. darn you humectress!
