Ouidad’s Curl Conditioner

Voted Allure Magazine’s Best Conditioner for Curly Hair, Ouidad Balancing Rinse ($15) detangles hair and seals the cuticle for a smoother, more manageable style. This conditioner uses proteins, not oils, waxes or animal-fats, so it adds back moisture without weighing hair down. The lightweight formula makes it an ideal leave-in to beat frizz or protect hair during heat styling. Apply to the underneath layer of hair, working out to the top. Leave in two minutes to allow hair to absorb the protein, then rinse. You may opt to leave some product on the ends to prevent splitting. Alternatively, scrunch through damp hair before using your normal styling products for extra smoothness and healthy, bouncy curls!
