I swear by Giovanni direct leave-in. It is so creamy and moisturizing. I love it.

For anybody who sees this and is looking for a leave-in conditioner----this is not a leave in; it's a moisturizer.

I see that lots are using glycerin. I will have to co-sign on that. Glycerin conditions my hair very well. After I wash my hair and apply it. It gives my strands just enough stretch, that my hair does not pop when I comb it, and this is important. So I am getting moisture and strength from this product. I only need to apply it every 3 days. I do not moisturize and seal. I like to keep it simple. Also applying glycerin every 3 days keeps from getting that gummy like buildup that I hate, from glycerin, if you apply to much. Most of the time this is all that I use. I also stand by AFRO detangler leave in conditioner, its is pricey though, but a good product if you are experiencing tangling. But glycerin will do it also. And it is important to note, that I work my hairs porous problem. This plays a huge part, no matter what leave in conditioner you use.

I had no idea glycerin could be used as a leave-in conditioner.

TBH, I also swear by my Giovanni Direct Leave-in. I usually dilute it with a bit of water, add some glycerine, add jojoba oil w/ a few drops of lavender and peppermint oils. If I'm twisting up, I'll just use the leave-in in all of it's thick, lotiony glory.

I use water mixed with glycerin and infusium 23....I love glycerin for my hair AND skin. I have extremely dry and scaly eczemic skin and when I spray a 1:1 ratio of glycerin and water on my skin it has my skin baby soft all day!! My fiance loves it when I do it.

It's almost winter so I know some of y'all are going to need something new very soon. Aloe wera juice and water and if I feel like being extra I go with giovanni's direct blended heavily with aloe vera juice.
