We get it. You’ve got places to be, friends to meet for cocktails, and bosses to report to. But if you’re trying to cut corners in the showering department, whatever you do, don’t skip out on your conditioner.
“You need to condition the shaft with deep moisturizing, weightless conditioners,” said Carolyn Aronson, a former stylist and the founder of It’s a 10 Haircare. She says that only washing will leave your hair feeling dried out, and if you’re guilty of this mistake, you know that to be a cold, hard truth. “Conditioner seals the hair’s cuticle back up, which locks in nutrients and keeps pollutants out. It also strengthens the hair shaft, preventing breakage, split ends, and even hair loss.”
