Hairdressing experts: Conditioner helps keep our hair from tangling, over-conditioning that make a waxy layers that weighing hair down, making it limp and unmanageable.

We know the rest: I can't do a thing with it -- the lament of someone suffering from a Bad Hair Day.

How does conditioner -- whether it's in our shampoo or in a different bottle -- help us out? A conditioner leaves a smooth, waxy coating on the hair, strengthening the cuticle or forming a protective layer over the cortex where cuticle cells have broken away. Hair can tangle when the lifted edges of the cuticle layer on one hair get caught on the cuticle layer on another hair. By adding a coating that smoothes out these rough edges, conditioner helps keep our hair from tangling. This coating also helps reduce static electricity and seals moisture into our hair, keeping it from getting dry and brittle.

Many peoples used to figure they should use more conditioner during times of Bad Hair, assuming that it could only help. Not true. They've learned that it's possible to overdo a good thing. Some peoples talk about "over-conditioning" our hair. That means we've used so much conditioner that the waxy layers are weighing our hair down, making it limp and unmanageable.
