After you wash your hair do you use a conditioner and if so what is the reason for you using it , do you really believe it helps your hair or do you just use it because you like the smell of the conditioner ?

Yep, I use a conditioner. I need it to get a comb through my hair, otherwise it's quite snarly. It feels softer after conditioning as well. If I skip it my damp hair feels like a haystack. The smell certainly doesn't hurt! I have fruit, flowers and baked goods in my shower.

Yes I use it every single time. My hair is very gray and very coarse. If I don't use a conditioner it is impossible to work with, I have the straigtest hair even my hair dresser agrees. It takes an act of congress to get it to curl. The conditioner just makes it a bit more manageable.

I use conditioner in my hair to keep it moisturized and lessen the effects that dry heat can have on it. I color my hair and it needs extra moisture. Using conditioner also keeps your hair from becoming flyaway from static.

yes i wash my hair with conditioner and i do this because otherwise my hair wouldn't be able to get a comb through it. it is very painful when that happens. i do believe it helps my hair. it makes my hair shine and makes it stonger. plus it makes my hair smell good. i use garnier nutrisse length and strength. i use that because it takes months for my hair to grow an inch. i color my hair so i need this extra help.

Oh I have to use conditioner. If I don't there is no way I'd ever get my fingers through my hair let alone a brush! The smell is a bonus :) Well at least it is when the conditioner smells good, lol.

I only use a conditioner after I wash my hair, as to comb it out. I have very long hair, and it gets tangled. The conditioner helps me comb it out more easily.

I must use conditioner. If you look at my photo, you will see why. My hair is so long, it needs conditioner so that it will comb though. I also like the smell of it. Do you use it?

There are various reasons why I use conditioner in my hair.. I use it because it helps to moisturize my hair, but it also contains necessary vitamins for my hair so that it can remain healthy or at least become a little bit healthier.. But at the same time so that my hair will grow in general. Another reason I use conditioner after I shampoo my hair is because.. I do believe that conditioner does work.. I've found that it has helped to make my hair be a lot softer.. It as well helps to make it less dry, as well it it makes it even more manageable, & it helps my hair to have less tangles! As well I feel everyone should be using conditioner in there hair at least in my opinion.. The reason I feel this way is.. Because after one shampoo's there hair.. It's best to use a conditioner so it will help to replenish the moisture lost during when you had shampooed it. At least this is the advice I had been given by a professional hair stylist when I had gone to her.. I as well have found if I wasn't to use conditioner that.. I wouldn't be able to even brush my hair or even be able to run my fingers through my hair.. As it becomes rather knotty if I don't use conditioner. I also find using a leave in conditioner helps to detangle my hair at the same time. So if I was to not use conditioner I'd walk out of my house looking like I had a bird nest on top of my head. That would not be at all appealing. haha. In conclusion.. I think if I wasn't to use conditioner in my hair.. That my hair wouldn't be looking as healthy as it is right now.. I love the conditioner I use because it helps to restore the dryness in my hair that may have been taken out of it over the last few years & so forth.. Conditioner is the solution to keeping my hair rather healthy looking.. At least this is what I believe! . .

I do use conditioner, although not for its smell. If I don't use conditioner I have to spend about 20 grueling minutes combing my hair. With conditioner I can usually get through it in 4 or 5 minutes with a lot fewer tangles.

I think, depending on your hair type it really does help. My hair is very long and straight. I use it to calm the frizz and help with the tangles. I don't use it all the time as it does seem to weigh my hair down sometimes. But every once and awhile can benefit the health of your hair.

Without conditioner my hair feels dry and is all tangly. Even if it's not a good quality conditioner my hair gets icky. I can't even use a shampoo and conditioner in one and in fact, I sometimes use that plus more conditioner. I don't regulary buy expensive stuff but it's nice when I can. The last stuff I got was Kirkland brand from Costco and I like it. I got plenty of it for the price of two regular size bottles of shampoo and conditioner

I use Conditioner only 3 times a week because my hair is not necessary to use conditioner everyday. I use it to recondition my hair and liked the smell too...

yes I shampoo and condition my hair every day , I have to use it as I use hair spray and conditioner is the only thing that will take it all out , I have heard if you run out of conditioner you can use fabric conditioner and it does the same job , I haven't tried it yet but it must be a lot less expensive xx

I use conditioner some time's after i wash my hair. i find the conditioner weigh's my hair down, but if i use a shampoo with a conditioner in it my hair look's better. i also just found a shampoo with soy milk in it to moisturize your hair and i love it because it do's not weigh my hair down. i find if i don't condition or moisturize my hair it is frizz's out all over and i look like i stuck my finger in an electrical socket. hehehehe, :) :) :) I hate when it do's that, i like my hair to look nice and not stick out all over the place.

I use conditioner because my hair needs it. If I didn't use it then the tangles would be terrible. It does smell pretty good but I probably wouldn't bother to use it if my hair didn't need it.

Well I don't ever use it because it makes my hair smell good. Since using conditioner alone can make my hair smell good. But I use it because I really have too or else my hair will feel dry. I have to wash my hair almost everyday, just something I have a habit of doing since I cannot stand my hair to feel oily at all. Even though I know it's natural and you shoudn't wash it everyday, but for some reason makes me feel dirty if my hair's oily at all. So, I always use conditioner after every shampoo. Since I do wash it everyday I tend to buy the more expensive shampoos. The cheaper ones make my hair feel dull and dry.

I do use conditioner and thats because I have too. My hair is quite long and gets so matted at times, especially when I have washed it. If I didnt use conditioner I would spend the rest of day trying to get a comb through it. I am not sure if it actually improves the condition of your hair but it certainly makes getting tangles out easier.
