How To Condition Your Hair Properly

The Grizzly EditorsPublished: Updated: 5 min read
TL;DR
  • Mid-lengths and ends only. Never scalp.
  • Leave on 60 seconds minimum, longer for damaged hair.
  • Rinse with cool water for shine.

Conditioner is a moisturizer, not a shampoo. It goes where hair is oldest and driest — not where it's freshly grown.

Where to apply

Mid-length down to the ends. Never on the scalp — it weighs down roots and leads to greasy hair by lunch.

How long

60 seconds is enough for daily conditioner. 2–5 minutes for a weekly deep conditioner.

Rinse temperature

Final rinse in cool water tightens the cuticle and adds shine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I skip conditioner if my hair is oily?+

No. Apply to ends only. Ends are still dry even when the scalp is oily.
