uh...im from africa and ive never seen shea butter. lol. I used Queen helene's cholesterol and i had the same results as layla. I normally comb my hair in sections cos of the tangling but the comb went right through.
if you are in a very low budget, you standard conditioner can become a deep conditioner. Just apply loads of it coating each srand sof hair, then either leave it for a couple hours, put it in a shower cap a sleep with it overnight or just wrap a hot towel around it. you will have a very moisturize hair after that.

Shea Butter is the best deep conditioner I've ever used (and I've tried just about everything out there). It's popular with women in Africa, so it must work well with curly hair. I have straight hair and it works wonders for me. You can buy Shea Butter conditioner or just rub some natural Shea Butter between your hands until it liquifies, then massage it through your damp hair (and on your scalp). Leave it on for a few minutes and rinse with tepid water. It leaves my hair very soft and shiny and keeps my scalp healthy too.
Another excellent conditioner for damaged hair is Redken Extreme Snap. I've seen it make seriously fried hair look soft and healthy.

Kitty vomit? Eeewweee! Okay, I used to dye my hair white, and had a low budget, so I used Pantene and I was pretty happy with it for moisurizing very dry hair. I haven't tried the others suggested above.

I like it because it detangles really well. Usually it takes forever to clear out my hair but when I used that for the first time the comb just slipped straight through my hair and my hair was unbelievably soft.

Layla, I think your deep conditioner would work great for other hair types. Products designed for naturally kinky hair in many cases work well for coarse, dry, or Asian hair types too! I oughta give your product a try next time I go hair product shopping ; )
I like dark & lovely ultra cholesterol but you probably don't have kinky hair. I used to use biolage in the tub and that was really good. I asked my mom to get some more and the lady gave her matrix sleek.look deep conditioner and said it was the same as biolage but it was totally different.

I''m going to have to bleach some black dye out of my hair so i can get a brown on and obviously it''s going to mess my hair up so i was wondering if anyone can recommend a decent deep conditioner stuff.
