Leave In

[snookes]

If your leave in has oils already in it do you still have to seal with oil? My leave in is a water based leave in but has some oils in it

Lately, I've been using aphogee keratin green tea leave-in and sealing with any oil I have within reach.

I still use oil with mine to seal. I feel that it keeps my hair from developing ssks and excessive split ends.

I've been just sealing my ends with a butter instead of the whole strand (section) and my hair stays super moisturized. It's weird but it's working because regular sealing weighed my hair down.

I spray with a liquid leave in, followed by a cream, then a butter or pomade like substance on my ends. I have hardly any single strand knots and I'm type 4 with kinky strands, the most ssk prone.

If my leave in leave my hair soft after drying alone , I dont feel the need to seal it.

The only two leave in conditioners that have done that is Shescentit Cranberry Cocktail and Sheamoisture Low Porosity Detangling Leave in conditioner. Hair dries soft , supple and a subtle sheen.

I use a moisturizing leave-in and have begun using a dry oil spray. Works well with my fine hair. Not weighed down.

It depends on how your leave in leaves your hair feeling. I usually still seal with a oil or butter, with butters leaving me with less tangles on my ends than oils.

I don't add additional oil. My leave in has an oil blend in it so it's a one step Loc.

Not when I use it on wash day to detangle and twist my hair. If its to moisturize during the week, I seal with oil!!

On wash day I use oil then water (rinse out the excess) then leave in
Any other way I use either or

I don't use extra oils. My products have enough oil. And when I used to use extra oil before, my pillow cases would be stained. I only use oil to make my hair pliable when I am wearing my hair stretched.

Plus my hair doesn't like the extra oils it doesn't soak in.

Well that's what I've been doing too Pretty. I guess it all depends how moisturized the leave in leaves ones hair.

Thank you for your replies Ladies I didn't realise. I get no red notifications.

Again, this all depends on your hair type. I have fine and low porosity hair. That type of hair doesn't like anything too heavy especially oils, creams or butter. Some women have a different hair type that absorbs oil very well. For my hair oil sits on top of it. You have to know the characteristic of your hair.

It depends on the weather for me. Hot and humid: I only use oil on wash day, not throughout the week. Cold and dry: I use oil daily when I moisturize just as a precaution.
