Yes, I have stopped using them completely and don't plan on using them again! I don't need to.....
Don't get me wrong, they serve their purposes and did my hair well in the beginning. However, I have found that my hair stays moisturized by doing the following:
I oil rinse with a heated mixture of wheat germ oil, amla, vatika, jojoba, olive oil, sweet almond oil.
I do this as a final rinse and I basically leave on for about 5 minutes under a heating cap. I then rinse out with a dime size amount of watered down shampoo (aveda).
My hair stays moisturized, silky and soft for 4-5 days (really, I am not exaggerating).
On the 4th or 5th day, I mist (2 sprays) my hair (a mixture of Aloe Vera Juice, ACV (I only add a drop to the 8 oz spray bottle), water, Infusium 23) and I apply Lacio Lacio (dime size or less) and then follow with oils-Amla, Vatika and Wheat Germ. I alternate my mist with Eqyss Rehydrant Spray.
Comb or brush through (I do more brushing than combing).
This evening while at the computer my husband looks over at me from watching football and says hey Indian Godess, I'm like why did you all me that? He says your hair looks like some Indian girl and its looks silky. Of course he then asked me if he could run his fingers through my hair and OF COURSE MAMMA LET HIM.
My husband comments on my hair on que, but this is the first time he did so during a football game. So, I'm all smiles and thought I would share. And I contribute such to the oil rinses and using oils when needed. AMLA oil and Wheat Germ oil as the key ingredients.

) Or do you use pure Alma oil? I want to find wheat germ oil, I've never used it. I know that oil is the best for locking in mositure. I am now finding the key is using them as a rinse!! Thanks Sacara!! I just have to find the right combo that won't weigh my cotton fine hair down too much. I bet you don't find one broken strand in your comb either. 
Thank you so much for the info. I've been trying to tailor the "oil rinsing" to me and your post made it all come together for me. The oils that penetrate, sound like a plan!
