Hi, Zirona...I usually combine it with shea butter and use it as a deep conditioner before or after I shampoo. If I use it as a deep conditioner, I do rinse it out like a conditioner. However, I do leave it in sometimes if I am doing on two-strand twist on my natural hair. I hope this helps.

Coconut oil can be used as a hair moisturizer because it's raw, organic, chemical free, rich in Lauric Acid and Caprylic Acid. I don't use it in my hair daily but about once a week. There's no limit as to how often you can apply it to your hair though. It absolutely does not need rinsing out. If you wash it out, there'd be no more nourishment in your hair. It's to be left in. I live on the east coast, so I might add, it's cold compressed. So after you put it in a pan and heat it, cool, then apply to hair, and go out in cold weather your hair/head will stiffen and get a bit white. And once in a warm building, will then soften up. But overall I love how it makes my hair soft and silky once in and combed. Its a great buy!

If you have curly hair it is naturally dry and will get brittle. My hair drinks it and is never greasy. Do you have curly hair? Are you rinsing out completely? I actually use a small amount as a leave-in conditioner. Not sure. I have never had that experience.

i normally let it dry for a few minutes while I dry my hair. No different than any other moisturizer. THEN I add cerave sunscreen before my make-up. Love this company ..the cream (in the round container) helped my crepe skin

Yes, you need to wash it off with water. Use it while you shower and use a moisturizer after you dry off.

It is a daily moisturizer/conditioner. It definitely de-tangles well, but then so does a few sprays of the leave in variety. I have been using both, and my hair seems shinier and healthier.

No, this is not a leave-in. Absolutely must be rinsed out. This is extremely concentrated and must be applied with a conditioning base of some sort, then rinsed out completely after. You will have more than enough remaining on your hair after the rinse out. With protein, there is such a thing as to much. The right amount of protein will seal the hair strand, protect it, but it's still able to remain flexible. To much protein and the hair strand will become stiff, and brittle, and can then break.

I use it as a leave in conditioner and apply it as a last step when my hair is wet. I use the dropper and apply it evenly to my scalp and massage it in before setting my hair with rollers or blow drying my hair. I love it!

This brand sells a leave in conditioner. http://www.amazon.com/Shea-Moisture-Butter-Leave-Conditioner/dp/B000BH92J2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430186058&sr=8-1&keywords=shea+moisture+leave+in I haven't tried leaving this one in, I always rinse it out.

Oh I put it on dry hair! And remember do not wash your hair before you apply it on, I guess it works the best on not clean hair

I don't think it is a leave in. You use it like any other conditioner I guess. It doesn't smell that great and doesn't do anything for the hair that's so great either. Their other products are so much better. I wasn't crazy about this stuff and wouldn't buy it again.

No, it is not a leave in conditioner. Directions : After shampooing, gently squeeze excess water from hair and apply conditioner from scalp to ends. Leave on 1-2 minutes. Rinse well.I hope that this helps. :-)

No, it´s not. This product should be rinsed up. It´s a good mask for moisturizer my hair.

You leave it in. I prefer to use it for greasing my 2 year old's scalp so that it doesn't get dry. You can also use it for styling.

This is shampoo. You put it on and leave it on your head/hair for at least 5 minutes and then rinse.

Its up to you really. It says to leave it on for 5-30 min. You actually don't have to wash it off if you don't want to. To me thats kinda waisting it. I use it as my nightly moisturizer. I get better results that way. Its a better version of the vital c lotion. So its perfectly fine to use it that way. U can also mix it with other image moisturizers and leave on

Hi... its like washing like when you shampoo your hair... instead you use conditioner.. you rub it in from scalp to your ends.. I massage my hair for about 10-15 mins and rinse it out..and then put leave in conditioner in.. but if you go to Youtube.. there are lots of videos about co washing.. but FYI.. I still use shampoo once in a while. Cheers!!!
