How to choose a solid conditioner according to your hair type ?

Is your hair frizzy, dry, brittle, or overly damaged? You should use a conditioner, or even a solid conditioner.

The main role of conditioners is to make hair bouncy and smooth. With so many options available, it can be difficult to navigate.

Terre de Marsq guides you so that you can choose a solid conditioner according to your hair type.

Which solid conditioner is best for my hair?

Do you have curly, normal, or frizzy hair? Have you heard of solid conditioner?

As the name suggests, it comes in solid form and is a great alternative to liquid conditioners for a zero-waste approach. If you've never used this type of hair product before, it's normal to wonder which one to choose.

THE solid shampoos are eco-friendly, zero waste with their recyclable cardboard, made with natural and often enriched ingredients. It is therefore important to determine your hair type and identify the ingredients that will suit you best. Unlike liquid shampoo, which must adapt to the scalp to take care of it, solid conditioner must match your hair type.

All hair types can benefit from using a healthy conditioner. Whether it's dry hair, oily hair or curly hair, all hair types can benefit from using conditioner. Because it's so nourishing, some people find that conditioner makes their roots very greasy. But a good application of the solid product can even regulate sebum production!

Be sure to check the ingredients in your conditioner. To respect the hair fiber, it must be made without pesticides and certified organic. The more good ingredients your conditioner contains, the better it will be for your hair. The ingredients in many conditioners darken the hair fiber and damage the scalp. Organic and natural conditioners are essential when choosing cosmetic products.

Regardless of your hair type and history (coloring, straightening, etc.), it's essential to choose a solid shampoo or conditioner that works with your hair type. With so many ingredients available, such as butters, vegetable oils, and essential oils, it's a good idea to consider the different properties of these ingredients.

Is conditioner good for hair?

THE organic solid shampoos are generally better for your hair than liquid shampoos because they are free of parabens, sulfates, phthalates, silicones, and synthetic fragrances. Even if you choose liquid, a Cosmos Organic conditioner is enriched with shea butter and Aloe Vera and is BHT and BHA free, silicone free.

Solid conditioner provides a smooth hair texture that makes detangling easier. It also prevents your scalp from becoming irritated. Choosing to use an organic solid conditioner goes a long way in enhancing your hair's beauty.

Thanks to the light lather created when you lather your solid conditioner in your hand, it's suitable for curly hair. It's also perfect for normal hair, where you can apply your solid conditioner directly.

Why is my hair sticky with a solid conditioner?

Have you chosen to adopt a natural hair care routine and use a solid conditioner? But after your treatment, your hair feels sticky, as if you haven't washed it in days?

Typically, when you switch from a liquid conditioner to a solid bar, you completely change the way you care for your hair. It is supplemented with new ingredients, such as vegetable oils, powders, essential oils, and more. In addition, it is cleansed with natural surfactants, often derived from coconut oil. The oily effect is a consequence of this transition, and it will take a little time for your hair to adjust.

Another reason is that you're still used to the way you apply your liquid conditioner. You're using too much, whereas with the solid version, you only need a small amount. Indeed, on straight hair, you only need to apply your solid conditioner once or twice from roots to ends. If you use too much, you'll accentuate the stickiness.

Advantage of a solid conditioner

One of the main advantages of using a solid conditioner over a liquid conditioner is its longer shelf life. Because you use less, your solid conditioner lasts longer.
