Conditioner is your curls' best friend and a key component of curl care. It helps to smooth the cuticle layer of the curly mane and lock in the moisture inside the curls. This makes the curls feel smoother, easier to detangle and more defined. Curls in particular benefit from this, as tangled cuticles can make combing difficult.

Conditioner is suitable for all curl types, from wavy, curly to frizzy curls. Depending on the formulation, it can be lighter or richer, so that both finer and stronger curls can be optimally cared for. It is important to choose a conditioner that suits the needs of your curly mane and helps to retain moisture.

Conditioner is used after shampoo, co-wash or mask and is the final step in the shower. On days without shampoo, you can cleanse your curly mane with water only and then use conditioner. Apply it to the lengths, detangle your curls with your fingers and then rinse it out. Always finish your care routine in the shower with conditioner.

Conditioner helps to make curly hair easier to comb as it smoothes the cuticle layer of the curls and locks in the moisture inside the curls. This makes the curls smoother and easier to detangle. The smoothed surface reduces friction between the curls, making it easier to detangle. This can help to reduce hair breakage and supports a defined, well-groomed curl crown.

Conditioner should mainly be used in the lengths and ends of the curly mane and not applied directly to the scalp. The conditioning effect, which smoothes the cuticle and locks in moisture, is not ideal for the scalp. Too much product on the scalp can strain the pores and lead to itching, dandruff or a rapidly greasy scalp.

The right conditioner depends on the needs of your curly mane and the ingredients it contains. Conditioners containing protein are particularly suitable for dry, brittle or chemically treated curls, as they can help to strengthen the curl structure. Conditioners without protein tend to be lighter and are good for finer curls or wavy to curly curl types that can quickly become weighed down. The right balance will help your curl crown stay smooth and defined.
