Hey Ladies,

I'm looking for suggestions on a good leave-in conditioner!  Preferably, a "watery" one. I've been using Daily Doctor and like it, but wanting to try something else. So, what do like/love as a daily leave-in conditioner? Why do you like it? What does it do for your hair and how does it make it feel?  By the way, I'm relaxed w/ type 4a/b hair. All suggestions welcome!!

Hey BrownEyez2 -

I'm relaxed also.  I've been using Elucence as a leave in when I wash.  I find that it makes my hair feel nice and slick and I love the smell.  I also use Hollywood Carrot Oil on roots & ends when I set my hair on rollers. This is the only oil I can put on wet hair that does not make my hair hard.

2x day (once in evening and again in am) on dry hair I use L'Occitane Olive Hair Care Oil (a few drops on roots & ends) and Carol's Daughter Healthy Hair Butter.  I LOVE the two products and have noticed a significant difference in the overall condition of my hair.  My hair drinks up the L'Occitane (it's very light) and both make my hair so shiney.  The Healthy Hair Butter really softens my hair, just melts in, does not sit on top.  I can't get over how much my hair likes it. 

Since winter is coming I was thinking about a great moisturizer. I decided to use the things that I do use already for hair assistance and put them in a squirt bottle. It works great for me...so in the colder season I will be definitely making this. 

My main products- Shampoo, Suave/white rain/ Vo5 conditioner,  Garnier Fructuse long and strong Split-end repair (rarely use) and olive oil or coconut oil (now and then for pre-poo treatments) and water.

My recipe consists of milk and honey suave with a bit of Garnier Fructose split-end, olive oil and water...this is working perfectly and I can feel an extreme difference. I also, decided to use this as a detangler for my ends the other day and I believe the oil adds the slip as well as the conditioner.

Thanks ladies! I actually just looked at the Organics hair mayo and the Hollywood carrot oil the other day at the BSS. I think I'm going to pick them both up this weekend and try them.

I also want to try the Salerm 21 but I'm so leery about ordering online. Has anyone else tried this? If so, what's your opinion on it? Is it sold at any stores?

This thread finally inspired me to place an order this afternoon for some latina hair products.

Star Lacio Lacio

Star Nice & Gloss Hot Oil Treatment

BrownEyez2,

The best watery leave in would be Aussie hair insurance (comes in a spray bottle). I used it when I was going natural (didn't last) and now that I am relaxed. I hadn't had a relaxer for 8 months and my hair was beyond soft using this stuff (and no tangles). It only costs $2.84 at Meijer (if your state has one), but they also sell it at drug stores and Walmart, etc. I think you should try it out because it is unbelievable. And for my ends I use Elasta QP mango butter. Again another hit.
