Dear CurlySuzy: I recently had a Brazilian blowout. I live in Colorado where the dew points are extremely low. I have fine hair. I am looking for a conditioner for fine hair. My hair loves protein and shea butter so I would like a moisturizing conditioner with protein. Can you help? Most of the conditioners on here are protein free or have a lot of glycerin, which is not good in dry weather. Help…Thanks in advance.

Dear Cindy: Here are some super-moisturizing conditioners that have protein and shea butter in them, but not too much glycerin (this is a tough combo!). They are also sulfate- and sodium-chloride free, which is good for post Brazilian blowout care.

Darcy's Botanicals Pumpkin Seed Moisturizing Conditioner

Darcy’s Botanicals Pumpkin Seed Moisturizing Conditioner

This is brand new. I tried it yesterday and it is great. It is a once-a-month treatment. Sadly it does not have shea butter but it is very moisturizing.

Curl Junkie Repair Me! Reconstructive Hair Treatment

This is a great, very thick conditioner filled with moisture.

Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose Moisturizing Conditioner

This is a good one, too, but you have to like the pumpkin scent.

Darcy’s Botanicals Pumpkin Seed Moisturizing Conditioner

Great one for the price.

Elucence Moisture Balancing Conditioner

This is a good protein treatment as well.

Spiral Solutions Repairing Protein Treatment

Love this one – lots of shea butter!

Jessicurl Too Shea Extra Moisturizing Conditioner

Hope one of these looks good to you.

Best, Suzy
