KIDS VERIFY: Is Conditioner Really Good For Your Hair?

A young viewer asked us to VERIFY if conditioner is good for your hair!

VERIFY QUESTION

After this long winter, your hair might feel more like straw than silk. Likely, it's a little dry and brittle and really could use a moisture boost.

That's why our VERIFY team was pleased to receive our first kids VERIFY submission.

A young viewer submitted this:

"My name is Gracie from Graham, North Carolina, and I would like you to VERIFY if conditioner is good for your hair!"

VERIFY SOURCE

To VERIFY, we consulted cosmetologist Tiffany Garner from the Fringe Salon and Spa in Greensboro.

VERIFY PROCESS

Tiffany said, "What a great question! Conditioner is amazing for your hair, depending on the type and condition of it."

She explained someone with fine hair should use a light leave-in conditioner to prevent the hair from becoming heavy and flat.

For people with medium to thick hair, she advises a moisturizing, silkening or smoothing conditioner.

And, for people with substantial damage to their hair, she recommends a conditioner labeled 'recovery,' 'restoring' or 'repairing.'

VERIFY CONCLUSION

In conclusion, we verified the answer to Gracie's question is yes -- conditioner is good for your hair! Just make sure you get the kind that's best for your hair type, so your locks can be extra healthy, soft and shiny.
