3. Apply the leave-in using the praying hands method, alternating with combing it through with your fingers.

5. Once you've gone through all the sections of your hair, grab a brush and give it a good brushing.
6. You can now continue styling your hair.

Extra tip: Use minimal amounts and always check how your hair reacts, try experimenting with this.

When is it best to use a CG leave-in conditioner?

A leave-in conditioner is often used directly after washing your hair with shampoo and conditioner . It forms the basis and the start of your styling routine. If you do not use a leave-in conditioner, your hair can become more frizzy and difficult to control. In addition to the days that you wash your hair, you can also use a leave-in conditioner to give your hair a refreshing boost in the morning. This is especially useful if your hair feels dry and needs extra hydration.

Daily use of a leave-in conditioner spray

It is not necessary to use a leave-in conditioner or a leave-in conditioner spray daily. Especially not if you have wavy hair, a looser curl pattern or fine hair. Sometimes it can happen that your hair is less well-styled in the morning or feels extremely dry and damaged.

In that case, you can use a leave-in, especially if your hair is thicker and could use some extra care. Experiment to find out what works best for you: for example, do you prefer to use a leave-in conditioner spray? In general, you only use a leave-in on the days that you wash your hair and follow a full routine.
