Hi, I have very fine 3a/3b curls and I've pretty much given up on gels because they weigh me down very badly and make my hair look/feel producty. Now a days it seems like all I really need is a light leave-in conditioner b/c as my hair changes with age I don't need much hold or frizz control anymore. I think I just need a light leave-in conditioner for moisture and softness, so that's what I want to experiment with.

Do you have any recommendations for CG leave-in conditioners? Anything that's good for the upcoming cold weather?

Thanks!

I don't use JUST a LI, but I definitely have to use a LI under my gels! I use some of my regular rinse-out conditioner as a LI. If you are looking for something very light and not-so-moisturizing, Suave or VO5 conditioners are nice -- they aren't heavy, and they're nice and cheap. Lots of fine-haired people like the "Yes To" conditioners (Yes To Tomatoes, Yes To Cucs, Yes To Carrots), also, because they are nice and light, but still moisturizing. Or, to make things simple, you can just use a little bit of whatever rinse out condish you have on hand! HTH.
