What should you look for in a deep conditioner?
Paul Jarrod Frankin New York City, tells SELF.
How should you incorporate a deep conditioner into your hair care routine?
Most deep conditioners can be used in place of your regular conditioner.
Massage it into damp hair and let it sit for a few minutes, then rinse it out.
If you have dry or thick hair, deep condition once a week.
