Here’s a rule we love to live by: good hair = good vibes. It doesn’t matter how many hours of sleep we did (or didn’t) get last night, or how wrinkled that blouse is – with good hair, we feel and look invincible. What’s good hair to you? For some, it’s supermodel tresses with just the right amount of body, highlights, and face-framing layers. For us, good hair is hair that’s at its happiest and healthiest.

Unfortunately, we don’t always treat our hair like we should. Washing in boiling hot water, heat styling daily, and knotting it up into a messy bun are just some of the no-no’s that can result in dull, frizzy, brittle hair—nothing like the Sofia Vergara perfection we’re after.

Looking for a hair miracle? You may have just found it in our best conditioner collection, made with natural, plant-infused ingredients. Keep reading to learn which natural ingredients make a good hair conditioner and some hair conditioner hacks to restore that glowing halo to your crowning glory.

Hair Conditioner Hacks

1. The Ends Up

We have a philosophy that healthy, beautiful results aren’t only about the product, but also about the application. We recommend to start from the ground up – or in this case, the ends – by conditioning the tips of our hair first. Why? The ends of our hair are the oldest and therefore the weakest. By hitting the ends first, we can reduce the overall amount of product we use and target the areas that need it most.This technique works best when using a rich conditioner like the to prevent split ends and breakage.

2. Double Dose Hair Conditioner

Going through a hair transition? We can totally relate. Whether growing out an awkward length, saying buy-bye to blonde, or going au-naturel, a hair change can be rough on our lifestyle. We recommend listening to our hair and treating it with what it wants. If your hair is blonde on the bottom but dark on the top, chances are that the hair on the bottom is going to need a bit more hydration using a double dose of conditioner can help. Apply a balancing shampoo to your scalp, then follow with the on your ends for an extra hit of moisture. This two-step approach keeps your hair healthy and hydrated during the transition.

3. Detangle with Hair Conditioner

Tangled, knotted hair is often a result of hair that needs some extra love. Why not use your conditioner to solve two problems? We suggest lightly detangling hair with your fingers before shampooing like normal – but avoid any of that swirling around to prevent the hair from tangling further. Then rinse the shampoo and apply the conditioner from the ends up. While avoiding the shower head, take a wide tooth comb and work it through the hair from tips to root, moving up about 2-3 inches until you reach the scalp. Massage the excess hair conditioner into the scalp before rinsing in cold to lukewarm water for a tangle free, shiny mane. Instead of struggling with knots, use your conditioner as a detangler. Our will leave your hair tangle-free, soft, and easy to manage.

4. Deep Conditioning Mask

Here’s a fun fact – our conditioners are dual purpose! Instead of using in a regular wash, try these as a hair treatment. This trick works especially well for those of us with split ends, color-treated ends or dry hair types. For this trick, the works wonders. You can wash hair before bed, apply the hair conditioner and then braid to secure the product. In the morning, unravel braids for super glossy and hydrated waves, or rinse out before styling for lightly-scented, softer hair.

5. Bonus Hack: Hair Conditioner as a Styling Product

While we love to pamper ourselves using multiple products with organic, natural ingredients, there are times when less is more. When traveling, spending time outdoors or just simplifying our routines, we’ve been known to use our conditioners for several uses. First, because our conditioners are traditionally meant for the hair, we love using them as styling products to achieve slick, sleek strands. The can be applied to damp hair to tame flyaways and add a sleek finish to your look. Simply smooth into dry or damp hair and style with a brush or comb depending on your desired look. As you know, our conditioners are rich in soothing, moisturizing ingredients and free of synthetics and sulfates, so they can be used as a lotion in a pinch. Try mixing our hair conditioner with a bit of water, and use it as a super hydrating and soothing shaving cream.
