Pros: works on all hair types; editor-approved; made with curls in mind; lightweight; gentle smell; protein-infused If you have dry, brittle, frizzy, or damaged hair or hair that has been chemically treated, then you probably need extra moisture," says Valles. "Leave-in conditioners are particularly useful if you have dry, frizzy or damaged hair." But a very important note: It’s not about finding the absolute best curl product for your 3c hair—it’s about finding the best product for your specific porosity. Porosity is your hair’s ability to absorb and retain moisture (like a sponge), based on its cuticle structure. And yup, this matters because: For consistent moisture, frizz-taming, and curl definition, she also advises combing the product through the hair for even application. As for the exact combo of products to use? That’s going to require some trial and error. BUT, as a very basic starting point, if your 3c curls are high-porosity, damaged, and/or have a ton of 4a coils, your hair might benefit from the LOC method (i.e., layering on a leave-in conditioner, then an oil, then a cream) for max moisture. But if your 3c curls are low-porosity and fine, OR you just want more curl definition in general, try playing with a leave-in, curl cream, and a gel (don't worry; product recommendations are below). How do you apply products to 3c hair?

The Curl Collections

Once you've determined your hair type and goals, though, there remain a few universals to keep in mind during your leave-in conditioner shopping process. You should apply your leave-in conditioner after washing your hair and before styling, try not to use too much to avoid oily hair," he advises. It's better to start small and progressively apply more than to apply too much and have to re-wash. "You can tell when you have applied too much leave-in when you try to apply heat to the hair, and see that the texture feels stiff and slightly greasy. The hair could also smoke during blow drying at this stage, which is another reason why it is important to avoid applying too much." If your hair has low porosity (think: a dense sponge with no holes), it’ll repel moisture, so products tend to build up on the surface rather than being absorbed. Low-porosity curls need lightweight—yet still hydrating—formulas to stay defined and healthy. Leave-in conditioners are also fantastic for curly and natural hair types, which need more moisture and are more prone to frizz and dryness. Personally, my 3A curls rely on leave-in more heavily than they do any other product.

When it comes to application technique, Giannetos advises, "I recommend applying it only after you wash the hair and towel dry it enough where it's damp but not too wet. Depending on how long your hair is, I recommend applying between a dime or quarter amount and brushing it through the ends of your hair, avoiding the roots."
