The purpose of deep conditioning is to restore and strengthen your hair. It helps prevent damage by adding moisture and improving the overall health of your hair.
Benefits-
Deep conditioning strengthens, adds moisture, prevents damage, improves elasticity and adds shine and softness.
When I added deep conditioning to my weekly hair routine I noticed a HUGE difference to my hair and it’s manageability. It wasn’t until I started consistently taking care of my hair, deep conditioning it weekly, & keeping it moisturized that I saw my true hair texture.
We put our hair through A LOT. From coloring to styling, to heat. And even if you don't do a lot to your hair, there are other factors such as weather that can affect your hair. It's important to show love to it weekly.
Current Favorite Conditioners-
Soultanicals - Afrotastic Curl Elastic Deep Conditioning Treat $15.99
Y'all ... This has been the latest conditioner I've used and I'm in LOVE. Soultanicals really took their time with this conditioning treatment. Oh, and did I mention the SMELL?! Incredible.
This deep conditioner has crazy slip making the detangling process easy and it leaves my hair feeling incredibly soft and moisturized. I love to apply heat whileusing but you don't have to. You can just apply a shower cap, or plastic bag... whichever you have on hand and leave it in for about 20-30 minutes and your hair will THANK you. The Avocado oil and other ingredients ya girl has trouble pronouncing work together magically! If you haven't tried Soultanicals Afrotastic Curl Elastic Deep Conditioning Treat WYD?
Miche- Indulge Moisturizing Deep Conditioner
This little gem right here. First of all, the smell gwrolsssss the SMELL. The smell is enough to add it to your collection. No but really, it smells that good. This deep conditioner is perfect for anyone who struggles with dry, frizzy, brittle hair. It contains raw honey & babassu oil, giving your hair the moisture boost it needs.
Shea Moisture - JBC Oil Strengthen & Restore Treatment Masquw$13.49
My hair tends to thrive when Black Castor Oil is present on the ingredient list, so I knew this deep conditioner would show out... and it did!
I love to use this when my hair needs some EXTRA love. You know, when you just took out a protective style, or after you've neglected your hair for a while. It has a light weight consistency, not what I typically look for in a deep conditioner however, when I apply heat to this. WHEW my hair sees a whole new world. lol no lie
Botanika - The Revitalizer
Created by a fellow beauty Influencer, this deep conditioner was curated to replenish and revitalize all hair types. Garlic, Avocado, and Mango Butter are packed into this bomb deep conditioner that instantly hydrates and restores your tresses.
This deep conditioner is definitely TOP 3 for me!! It's literally that good. The revitalizer was the first deep conditioner I began using weekly and it made a huge difference. I love to apply this with a lot of water to add more slip (not that it needs it) and my fingers glides through.
Miche - Strengthen Protein Deep Conditioner $17.99
Another great gem from Miche! At first I was a little skeptical because it's a protein deep conditioner, but after doing some research and figuring out the right time to use this conditioner really changed the game. It smells incredible and brings my hair back to life.

Y'all know I couldn't create a deep conditioner list without including one for my beauties on a budget! This deep conditioner contains Aloe that penetrates your dry, brittle hair leaving it silky and shiny.
