I think first of all you should know the reason we use a conditioner and also the method of Conditioning. All types of hair have to be conditioned to keep it shiny and flexible. Conditioning is specially usefull for dry hair. It adds to the natural oil supply and gives dry hair, shine as well as bounce and strength. For oily hair, use conditioner only on the ends of your hair. Method of Conditioning 1 After shampooing gently squeeze the excess water. 2 Comb the hair with the fingers or with wide toothed comb from the roots to the ends gently. Remove tangles. 3 Apply little conditioner and rub the conditioner through the hair with the fingers. Never rub on the scalp. 4 Keep it on the hair for 5 minutes. 5 Now gently massage the hair to loosen the conditioner. 6 Rinse the hair and remove all traces of conditioner. Now dry the hair.

i wash my hair with shampoo, then i apply conditioner to the ends first and work my way up, after that i leave it on while i shave my legs and wash my body, after that, i rinse... its totally dependent on your schedule and the type of conditioner that you use. there are so many variants to think of...
