Which is your favorite moisturizing deep conditioner?
Hello, thanks for the information. I have a question, when I use a deep conditioner is it a must to use a normal conditioner? Question #2 can using curling gel and cream hinder the hair growth?
Hello Caryle… No, you don’t have to use a normal Conditioner after using a deep conditioner, just go straight to moisturizing.
I don’t think they can hinder growth but product build up on your scalp may.
