Moisturizing your hair sometimes requires more than just a quick rinse-out conditioner, especially in the summer. A leave-in conditioner can supply that extra moisture and conditioning as well as smooth dry ends and frizz.

Most leave-in conditioners come in the forms of sprays or creams. Spray-ons may also act as a detangler and are especially useful for combing hair that snarls easily. Wet hair, as we know, stretches more and is more vulnerable to breakage due to rough combing and of course, never ever use a brush on wet hair. Creams can deliver more intensive conditioning and can be concentrated where needed most, such as dry or split ends.

A leave-in conditioner will give your hair that added bit of protection and moisture, maximizing shine. Shop for one with a sunscreen added. Although sunscreens may not last long on the hair, it’s a bit of sun protection your hair might not have otherwise.
