I can't get a comb through it if I won't condition every day.

Everytime. The first thing I do is wash my hair so I can put in the conditioner. Then I do everything else first. Then rinse out the conditioner with cold water. I use twice as much conditioner as I use shampoo to.

I apply leave-in conditioning serum on my hair every time after a shower.

Every time, and I have started doing a light leave in treatment at night. I dye and straighten, so it needs a little help.

I can't get away without using conditioner because my hair is dry and curly. Sometimes I will skip shampoo, though. I'm growing it out so I only use heat on my bangs (which I keep short anyway )

I have to pretty much every day. Why am I so prone to split ends??

Contributor: TheSinDoll TheSinDoll
I color and sometimes straighten so I use hair masks, even after a really good conditioner.

I use name brand shampoos and conditioners that work for my type of hair and sometimes try new things that my hair dresser suggests. Always get in trims to keep away split ends.

I don't condition it. I actually got it thinned out last time by a stylist so I wouldn't have the weight and hair to go through!

I chose other. I'm not a big fan of showers unless it's in the middle of summer and very hot out. I like baths. So, I often wash my hair in the sink or even in the bath. I condition every time I shampoo, or about every other day. I think once you are out of adolescence and you aren't as oily as you were, there is no reason to shampoo every day. It dries the hair, as does using a lot of products.

I also dye my hair, so about once a week or 10 days or so I use the conditioner that comes with the dye. That stuff is fantastic.

I dont straighten, curl or style..... but I do condition it every day.

My hair is super fine and feels like straw if I don't condition. I do skip it though if I'm going straight to bed and want clean hair for whatever reason (didn't shower that day, sick, whatever...), but when that happens, it's right back to the morning shower routine the next day anyway.

I condition every time I shower, although it's mostly out of habit. I do dye my hair, but maybe once a month or so at this point, and I don't use a blow dryer very often, and I'm not sure I've ever used a straightener.

I try not to blow dry/curl/straighten my hair but I still condition every time I shampoo because my hair is very dark and can look dull otherwise.

I don't wash mine every time I shower, or it would get all dry and frizzy. But, I do condition it every time I wash it, and then add an additional leave in conditioning serum. I only blow dry with a diffuser (lots of curly hair here) and between everything, it keeps my hair pretty healthy.

My hair is perpetually too greasy to condition, so I don't tend to use conditioner unless I have had my hair dyed, wherein it reaches "normal" levels of greasiness.

Every time I wash my hair I use conditioner. I normally wash my hair every other day. I use special color protecting shampoo and conditioner I get from the salon I go to. And when I use my Chi, I use some sort of special heat protectant. Thankfully I have thick and healthy hair, so it stands up well to the things i subject it to

I condition the ends every time, even if I don't wash all my hair. I also don't use any hot styling tools. My hair has been a lot happier since I started doing this.

i have very oily hair even with my hair dyed mostly because i avoid hair damageing things such as blow dryers and irons unless its a special occasion although i do condition every shower because my hair tangles easily and my scalp is so sensitive i sometimes tear up when brushing my hair. but so far i am happy with my hair because it is incredibly soft and has a beautiful natural style

I have really long hair, so I have to condition every time I wash it or I can't get all the tangles out.

I said "other" because I don't wash my hair every time I shower. I wash my hair once a day. On the days I end up taking multiple showers, I usually only wash/condition my hair during the first one.

I usually don't. But then, I really like using a shampoo bar followed by about a tablespoon or so of apple cider vinegar in a large glass of water. Smooth and shiny.

So I never condition my hair.

I almost never use any heat to style my hair so I don't really need to condition. I also try to stay away from icky chemical filled shampoo and conditioner. I use baking soda as shampoo and the rare times that I condition I use coconut oil or something similar.

Once or twice a week, but no more than that since it messes up the texture of my hair otherwise.

Considering I dye my fringe every 3-5 days, I have to keep conditioning it. I'm probably going to have to lay off dying it so often sadly.

Every other time. Sometimes twice a week, you aren't supposed to wash your hair EVERYDAY because it strips your hair from all the oils and good things It needs.

I condition my hair every time I shampoo it, which is about 5-6 days a week.

I heard if you shampoo your hair every day you can strip the natural oils from your hair and you can dry it out really bad.

I wash every single day, but only condition about once a week or so. Whenever I remember. My hair is so short I don't really need to. When my hair was longer, I conditioned every day.
