Any hairdresser's out there? Leaving conditioner on my hair.?

Question

Does it do any harm to comb hair conditioner into my dry hair in the afternoon and leave it overnight? I don't have time in the morning to wash and condition, so i just wash it. I have done it for a couple of days but is it ok? Thanks a lot.

I'm confused now. Some say yes, some say no??

I have to wash my hair EVERYDAY in the morning before i go out, i always get up looking like Worzel gummidge and its greasy looking. Nothing makes it look good in the morning, so i have to wash it.

Answer 1

It won't do any good, unless it's a leave-in conditioner. Leaving regular conditioner in your hair will only result in oily hair and scalp that attracts dirt, dust, lint, etc. Rinse out all of the conditioner.

Or when your in a hurry, use a shampoo with conditioner, or put a little conditioner in your shampoo, or probably the best thing would be is to invest in a good leave-in that you can spray on and comb through with a wide-toothed comb. :-)

Hi not to be funny but by the time you have put conditioner on your hair un the afternoon you could of washed and conditioned it and dried it. But if your going to do this use a leave in conditioner and it wont damage your hair as much, It doesnt take long and my do you only have to do it in the morning. Why when you get in from work dont you wash and condition before you go to bed. It will still be washed in the morning. It doesnt take long to wash your hair and condition.

Problem is you'll eventually end up with a build up that will leave your hair looking dry & dull. Why not wash ii in the morning then use a spray on conditioner during the week. On the weekend you can deep condition.

Answer 4

It won't do any harm, but it won't do any good either. Most "instant" conditioners are just that, they are made to be put on and rinsed out immediately. It shouldn't take any extra time in the morning. The purpose of conditioner is to balance pH, detangle, and smooth out the cuticle of the hair after shampooing. If you need extra help with dry hair, I would recommend a once or twice weekly treatment or mask that is designed to be left in for a longer period of time. If you have color-treated hair, just make sure the treatment you use is formulated for color-treated hair because heavy conditioners can actually contribute to color fading.

Answer 5

You shoul wash your hair before conditioning it because shampoo takes you natural oils out of your hair and conditioner puts them back in but there is no harm in leving conditioner in overnight but only wash your hair every other day

Answer 9

sounds a crazy idea!!
wash hair then condition and rinse immediately with cool water!
no need to leave conditioner on at all
it only takes a few seconds to add conditioner and then rinse
the shops only leave it on so they can do other hair whilst you sit there and then they can justify their huge bill

Answer 10

Leaving conditioner in my hair makes it feel really greasy and horrible.
I wouldnt recommend doing it tbh.
