Well Hello Leave In!!!
I've never used a leave in on my hair, since starting CG, it's been very soft and easy to handle, so I just assumed that I was moisturized enough. Lately though, as some actual fall air sets in on my part of the east coast, my curls have dropped and lost most of their definition.
So last night, I thought I'd try a little experiment with a leave in. I figured that at the worst, it wouldn't look good and I'd just shower and re-style my hair this morning. I used my TJ's condish as my rinse out and used some as my leave in followed by a healthy dollop of HEBE. I was up for a while after showering, and it was about 90% dry when I finally went to bed.
Well, the results are AMAZING! Volume, root curl, amazing defined curls and best of all - Second Day Hair! I just wet it a bit and diffused since it was cold this morning, and I didn't want to leave the house with damp hair.
I'm so excited!

I've found this as well. Even if I use a tiny amount but it's enough to coat I get much better formed curls!

Yeah, it took me forever to realize that a leave-in makes a big difference. Since my hair was so easy to weigh down, I was so focused on trying to find the perfect conditioner. Really, its been the leave-in that made everything pop.
