Need a new light leave in

**Obsidian** · June 6th, 2023, 09:17 AM

I'm looking for a light weight, non oily leave in. Any suggestions?

Maybe the Giovanni Direct Leave-In.

I use children's detangling spray as a leave in

I don't know what you have available where you live but there's surely something that could work. Maybe Suave

Another vote for Giovanni Direct Leave In

I'll check out Giovanni, I think its sold locally. I have tried cantu spray detangler, it works ok but smells atrocious. I've not tried suave but I'll check it too, always have liked the brand.

Cantu's leave-in (if used like really sparingly) is nice. You get tons for a reasonable price. It's all in how much you use. But I would recommend this one over the JBCO leave-in by Shea Moisture. It keeps for *ages* without turning on you!

I'm using Garnier Fructis Pure Clean detangler and airdry spray. It's silicone free and seems pretty light. I wish it weighed down my floaty hair!

That sounds nice, I'll try it first. @Lapushka, I can look into cantu but I'm not a fan of what I've tried so far, definitely won't be using anything from shea moisture, its terrible.

The one I've been really liking is the Tgin Rosewater Leave in conditioner - it's very moisturizing but not heavy, no protein, no silicones.

got2b used to have a leave in that I was *such* a major fan of. But they did away with that, and it was nice & light. I use pretty heavy stuff (but in small amounts so it doesn't make it weigh down the hair for me; aka it's all good), but from that the Cantu is the best I can do, if you don't like Shea Moisture. Cantu is "thick", though, so if you don't like that texture (you need a pea size, really), forget it, girlfriend!

Then I'd ditch that. But it was the best ideas I had.
