Leave in conditioner can have a dramatic effect on the look and feel of your hair.

Not to mention making it more manageable.

But as with all hair products, some are more effective than others. And some perform better than others, depending on your hair type and its specific needs.

This page contains some of the best products available for using after your usual cleansing/conditioning products.

Browse from these two main categories of leave-in products…

Detanglers  :  Treatments


Best Detanglers

Detanglers are light formulas, either spray or cream, which make it easier to comb through tangles.

They moisturize and add shine and softness to the hair. Spray on detanglers are best for fine hair as they’re very light and work well for kids’ hair. These are among the best on the market…


TIGI Rockaholic
Born to Rock Leave-In Detangler

TIGI Rockaholic Born to Rock Leave-In Detangler

This is a great basic detangling spray for hair in any condition.

It helps to smooth hair and control frizz as the hair dries. The mist delivery makes this product light enough to use on fine hair.

Try out a bit of detangler before you bust out the comb and tackle those knots, or if your hair is prone to static (so annoying!).

Joico Daily Care Leave-In Detangler

Joico Daily Care Leave-In Detangler

This leave in conditioner rehydrates, detangles, adds shine without any product feel. It’s super lightweight and has a refreshing scent.

AND it has thermal protectants to keep your hair in optimal condition if you do a lot of heat styling (i.e., flat iron, hot rollers, etc.).


Nexxus Headress Thickening
Leave-In Volumizer Conditioner

Nexxus Headress Thickening Leave-In Volumizer Conditioner

This product does it all. It detangles, adds shine, protects from heat styling AND protects from UVA/UVB rays!

The sun can have a harsh effect on exposed hair. Using a product that guards against the elements is very helpful in the long-term.

This is especially important if you color your hair. It will help to keep the color molecules from leeching out of your hair in the bright sun.


Best Leave-In Conditioning Treatments

Leave in hair treatments contain more nutritive ingredients to restore health to damaged, over-processed hair. These products work well for adding moisture and shine to dry, frizzy hair and defining curls or waves.


Sebastian Potion 9 Wearable Treatment

Sebastian Potion 9 Wearable Treatment

“A wearable treatment to restore and restyle”

This product is totally unique. It’s a conditioner/treatment/styling product all in one. And it works on ANY hair texture.

It smoothes hair, enhances shine and defines curl beautifully, with just the tiniest bit of hold. Potion 9 is perfect to use whether you’re leaving your hair to dry naturally, or curling/straightening with heat tools.

It’s a cream/gel consistency, light enough to use on fine hair and gives a natural looking shine.


Redken Extreme Anti-Snap

Redken Extreme Anti-Snap

A good option for those with weak, brittle hair that is prone to breakage. This light treatment nourishes and strengthens porous, damaged hair.

It’s a clear, gel consistency that tames frizz, defines curls and adds shine without being oily.

Kerastase Reflection Chroma Riche Luminous Softening Essence


Kerastase Reflection
Chroma Riche Luminous Softening Essence

Another winner from the Kerastase line! Don’t let the long fancy name deter you. The manufacturers were clearly trying to make it sound special… because it is.

A leave-in treatment which strengthens and softens over-porous, processed hair. This lightweight liquid seals the cuticule layer of the hair to combat tangles and make hair shiny.

It contains all sorts of protective goodies to soothe and nourish brittle, breaking hair and protect your hair color with its vitamin E and UV filtering ingredients.

This product is super concentrated, so a little bit goes a long way. Only use one or two pumps per application (start with one) and you will notice a dramatic difference in the look and feel of your hair.

Surprise Pops of Color Winter is a great time to play with rich hues by adding a few pops of jewel toned highlights. How to Style: 1. Apply smoothing cream to towel dried hair. 2. Blow dry with a paddle brush to achieve maximum smoothness. 3. Use a flat iron to smooth any unruly locks and give layers around your face a subtle bend on the ends. Product Recommendation: A good shampoo and conditioner are the foundation to any style (you wouldn’t build a house on a shaky foundation, would you?). Since the air is drier during the winter months, make sure to nurse your locks with extra hydration. I recommend Onesta’s Hydrating Shampoo & Moisture Balance Conditioner. Face Shape and Hair Density:  This style is great for any face shape and for medium to thick densities. I’ll Take My Waves On The Side Take one look at the red carpet and you’ll find almost every actress is loving the side swept look. How to Style: 1. Starting with clean dry hair, cu...

The Effects of Stress on Your Hair

The Effects of Stress on Your Hair WebMD Feature By Joseph Saling Reviewed By  Laura J. Martin, MD   It has been said that stress can make you go gray, or cause you to lose your hair. But can it?  Even though you sometimes feel like tearing your hair out because of personal, economic, and work-related stress, stress isn"t likely to be the direct cause of hair turning gray. Some studies have shown that unavoidable damage to the DNA in cells that produce the pigment responsible for hair color is most likely the culprit. But can stress accelerate the aging process and, as a result, cause you to go gray sooner than you otherwise would? Right now, the answer is debatable. "We have all witnessed the graying hair of many past presidents," says Amy McMichael, MD, professor of dermatology at Wake Forest Baptist Health in Winston-Salem, N.C. "Perhaps over long periods of stress, there may be an acceleration of gray hair in some people." But, s...
