A leave-in conditioner is exactly how it sounds: it’s a conditioner you use on dry or freshly washed hair that you simply don’t wash out. It’s perfect for just about every hair type—curls, coils, textured, straight or color-treated—that's dry, damaged or in need of some mega-moisturizing. Use it once a week or more frequently to suit your hair needs.
