What conditioners are good for co-washing?

Well, Charlayna, this is a great question that many ladies new to co-washing have as well!  Once you decide that you will begin to include co-washing in your regimen, you need to make sure that you are going about it the best way. There really are no right or wrong ways to co-wash, however there are some ways to ensure that you gain the  most from the experience.  Refer to my blog on co-washing for more tips.  Co-washing Tips and Techniques .

First off,  for all practical purposes, it is not necessary to spend more than a few bucks at the most for your co-wash conditioners. Most ladies choose to use a cheapie conditioner due to the fact that the product will not sit on your hair as a deep conditioning agent. Co-washing serves the sole purpose of moisturizing the hair. Any cheap conditioner can serve this purpose, and since you are not using a shampoo,which can dry hair out, the conditioner alone will do fine.

I asked the ladies over at BHP (a black hair care forum) what their fav co-washing conditioners were and these were the results:

Herbal Essences Hydralicious

Suave  Tropical Coconut

Suave Humectant

VO5 Moisture Milks (Strawberries and Cream; Passion Fruit Smoothie)

Tresseme Curl Moisturizing & Smooth and Silky

Pantene Moisture Renewal

Healthysexyhair Pumpkin Conditioner

V-05 Silky Experiences

Charlayna, as you can see, most of these conditioners are cheapies. You can save money and have healthy and beautiful hair all at the same time….Happy Hair Growing!

    I am currently struggling to keep my hair healthy (I think its over processed). I read a lot of articles on co washing however none indicated that it has its cons. So am glad I found this one before I started the actual regime. Also grateful for the list of inexpensive products as I was wondering which were best and I didn’t wanna spend as lot on something that may not work.
