I’ve been leaving it in for 15m or so?
m-p{3} ( @mp3@lemmy.ca ) 6•1 month agoI put the conditioner in my hair, then let it sit a couple of minutes while I wash the rest of my body. When I’m done I rinse it all in one go.
Vanth ( @Vanth@reddthat.com ) English4•1 month agoI follow the directions on the container. Mine doesn’t say to let it set, so it stays in as long as it takes me to give it and my scalp a good scrub.
Edit: I also use something called co-wash, not conditioner.

communism ( @communism@lemmy.ml ) 3•1 month agoYou mean conditioner? I wash my hair when I get into the shower and leave the conditioner in while I wash the rest of my body, then once I’m done I rinse my hair out. So it stays in for however long it takes to clean the rest of my body.
Co-Wash is not a conditioner.

Lumidaub ( @Lumidaub@feddit.org ) 2•1 month agoApparently that means no shampoo, only conditioner…? On the rare occasion that I use conditioner, it goes in after the shampoo is out and stays in for however long it takes me to soap the rest of my body.
KittenBiscuits ( @KittenBiscuits@lemm.ee ) English5•1 month agoFor curly hair types, shampoo shouldn’t really be used. Conditioner is used to “wash” the scalp and hair (thus, “co-wash”), rinse it out, and then condition again, leaving it in while you wash the rest of you with soap, and then rinse it all off at the end.
Lumidaub ( @Lumidaub@feddit.org ) 2•1 month agoOh okay. Thanks for teaching me something.

Gold_E_Lox ( @Gold_E_Lox@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English2•1 month agoshampoo strips natural oils which makes hair thick or something, i really have no idea i just like my curls :3
M. Orange ( @miracleorange@beehaw.org ) 2•1 month agoSo… straight hair gets greasier the longer it goes without being washed, right? There lots of reasons for that, a few being brushing, combing, running your fingers through it, or just the oil running down it. Well, the curlier your hair is, the harder those things are to do. In fact, oil often won’t run down the strands at all on very curly hair, so you’ll be left with an oily scalp and increasingly dry hair. Shampoo is inherently oil stripping, and if you put it on curly hair that’s already lacks oil, you’ll just make it even more frizzy and awful. Hence, a lot of people with curly hair forego shampoo.

Doesn’t it say in the bottle?
Nope.
