As a wise man once said, "Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty." Problem is, when it comes to your hair, not all moisture is created equal. Because each hair type and length comes with its own particular set of quirks and drama, it's important to make sure you're using the right conditioner for your locks.
Just as you wouldn't use a super-thick and heavy cream on oily skin, you also wouldn't use a heavy oil on fine hair. Use the wrong type of conditioner and you could end up with a 'do that's either greasy and weighed down (from too heavy of a conditioner) or strawlike and straggly (from a not-nourishing-enough conditioner). Not really the end result any of us are going for.
