Leave-In Treatments

Leave-in conditioners  are great for all types of hair. They should be used every time you wash your hair to act as a barrier between you and the elements. They also add moisture, tame fly-aways and combat frizz. Choosing the right one is a matter of balance. You need something that will leave hair soft, shiny and conditioned without becoming weighed down or greasy. If you have oily hair, chances are a leave-in treatment  is not one of your top priorities.

For Dry or Damaged Hair

• In addition to a deep conditioner  in your weekly routine you'll also need a daily leave-in that is a cream formula chock full of silicone products, oils and butters. The trick is to not to apply so much that it leaves your hair greasy. Start with a little and add as you go, making sure to coat each section of your hair evenly.
