Do you LEAVE conditioner in your hair that is not a leave-in conditioner??

[HAIRapy]

Okay, I was reading a thread (linked below) where a lady washed/cond her hair once a week, put nothing on her hair but CON conditioner on the last 2-3 inches of her hair and wore it in a bun all week (she also airdried and her hair was relaxed every 5 weeks). Her hair grew from her shoulders to 4 inches from her waist (she's 5'3). I found her method very interesting and wanted to know if any of you ladies are doing this or something similar.

Also, Is it okay to leave in your hair non-leave in conditioner? Do you do that? If so, are you seeing positive results from doing that?

I think you have to be carefull with certain protein conditioners though! ORS OORP jacked up my hair doing this! took a long time to get it back right

 

[backtonature]

I do and it works great. You have to use one with no protein.

 

[JustKiya]

Oh, yeah, all the time. I purposefully rinse my hair in such a way that all of the con is not fully rinsed out - it leaves my hair feeling gentler/softer all week.

 

[HAIRapy]

Wow, I never knew so many ladies did that. OKay, I was really interested in trying this so on the way to work this morning, I stopped at the BSS (yes, it opens at 7AM ) and got CON purple label Nurishing conditioner (moisturizes and detangles) to leave in my hair. Is this a good one to leave in? I figured I should stay away from the ones with protein because that may make a protein overload.

 

[napbella]

All the time. I use VS very sexy conditioner. Smells divine and is thick and creamy which is great for my 4a thick hair, especially in the back!

I do the same exact thing!

hmmm didnt know they had a conditioner

must try it!

they sell it where, in the VS stores?

Yup me too! It helps me retain moisture b/c after I leave the conditioner in,I seal with oil

 

[hrtbndr21]

I use non leave in conditioner as a styler. It's the only thing that brings my waves and coils out.

 

[BillsBackerz67]

Yes I use Suave or V05

 

[Tylove101]

I put it on all my hair and it actually serves as my leave in... I use my AO Honeysuckle Rose.

 

[leona2025]

I was doing it with Mane and Tail everyday, but I think that may be a protein?? My hair was stronger and thicker now I do that about 2 times a week. I need to look into using the moisturizing conditioners as a leave in. I have Motion moisture plus, Elasta DPR 11, Motion silk protein, and Queen Helene Cholestrol conditioners. Which would be the best leave in?

 

[yellow08]

I've done it many times...Especially if I am running short on time...

 

[caramelcutieinva]

I do this with mane n tail for braidouts, and wash n go's

My hair has been so soft and strong since doing this

My stylist even noticed the difference

 

[Blessed2bless]

I did when I was younger, I believe that is when my hair was at it healthiest... I was just thinking of doing this again... I also did beer rinses to clarify...I may do that again too.

 

[Kurly K]

yep i do it especially if i am going to be in the sun it doesnt allow my hair to get dried out )

I was wondering the same exact thing because I have the CON purple label as well

 

[HAIRapy]

I was wondering the same exact thing because I have the CON purple label as well

I was thinking that would be a good one because it's ultra moisturising and that's what my hair needs because if I let it, it will get dry and crunchy-brittle But I am open to suggestions on different conditioners if anyone knows of any conditioner that's a better moisturizer that has no protein in it. Because I got this one today, I will start out by using this one. I'm going to start doing that on Monday.

Ladies, when you use conditioner, you're not using any heat, right? I was thinking that I'm gonna just do airdried updos with no heat. I'm going to see how that works for me.

 

[BrockStar]

I do it every time I cowash, about every other day... I use Suave humectant...simple and cheap

 

[Simply_Kelz]

I do this with whatever condish i co-washed with .. usu. a vo5

 

[MonPetite]

Did it for years!

 

[Keep1Belle]

Yep, I use ORS olive oil replenishing pack. I rinse hair in the am, slather in the ors and go to work and then work out. At night when i take my shower I no poo it out. Put some leave in cream in and part hair in sections and cover with scarf. In the morningI eaither add more leav-in cream and do a pony puff or re-wet and put in some ors again.

My hair loves it

girl where YOU been? i've been leaving conditioner on my hair for a minute now, and i hear others are having sucess with it too. you have to find the right conditioner for it of course... not all of them are suitable to use as leave-ins without giving you dull hair or flaking, etc. V05 is my tried-and-true

I leave in conditioner all the time. I find it the best thing for my hair and I don't even have to use other products

i stopped buying these because i hated paying for the packs...now that i know it is in a bottle maybe i will get it when this buy nothing challenge is up. it does smell really good and give me good curl definition, and now i know i'm not crazy for wanting to use it as a leave-in!
