Analysis
Throughout the list of ingredients you see a compilation of enriching and conditioning ingredients. When combined and emulsified into a product, these ingredients leave a lasting impression on the surface of the hair and within the hair shaft. Gentle, natural humectants are added to attract and maintain moisture levels within the hair. Oils are added for slip and detangling support to delicate strands. As rinse-out conditioner this can be used immediately following a cleansing session or you can use as a stand-alone conditioner as needed.
According to Janell Stephens, “Jansyn’s ‘Moisture Max’ Conditioner is a highly moisturizing rinse-out conditioner with natural ingredients to nourish the hair. Every now and then you will still need a deep conditioner for intense conditioning. However, there’s no way to tell a person what exact products to use. I believe people should try different products to find the best regimen for them.”
So what does this mean for your hair type?
If you desire increased moisture levels, a balanced pH, and clean hair with minimal buildup, then you may find a cleansing conditioner to suit your fancy. If you desire increased moisture levels, ultimate hydration on a regular basis, and detangling bliss, a moisturizing conditioner would fit your profile.
All hair types need cleansing and conditioning. Frequent wash and go-ers will really get a kick out of cleansing conditioners. They add the moisture you need to combat the recurring manipulation that goes into a wash and go, yet they will gently clean away any excess product needed for styling. Women of every curl pattern can benefit from a moisturizing conditioner when their hair feels dry or if they have very thirsty, coarse strands. Based on your hair type, you can govern the regularity of usage.
The Bottom Line
As previously stated by Stephens, it can be difficult to know what is best for your hair type without trying various products. My suggestion is to find a product line that meets your general concerns. For example, these specific products address the condition of the hair. Look for words that speak to your need, read the ingredient list, and try it out!
