A reader recently asked me how to know when a product is a "deep" conditioner and not just a regular rinse-out conditioner. She asked this because many intensive conditioning treatments don't list themselves that way. Great question! And here's where some legwork on your part comes in.
Sometimes, you'll have to read the instructions to see how to use it. If it instructs you to:
- Apply after shampooing and towel drying
- Leave on for at least 10 minutes (sometimes as little as five) and up to an hour or so
- Use with or without heat, and with or without a plastic cap
Then chances are it's a deep conditioner, designed to impart more moisture into your hair. It's good practice to use one on a regular basis, at least once a month, but with most black hair, a minimum of twice per month is a better option.
Looking for deep conditioners that work? Try M&M's Milk Protein & Olive Oil Really Deep Conditioning Treatment or ORS Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner for a start!
