She mixes Downy with her conditioner? 0_0
I wonder what possessed her to try that in the first place to even find out if she liked it or not.
It clearly works for her, but I won't be trying it.
ETA: I was just doing a search for braid sprays too. Maybe I need to try this fabric softener and water mix.

I've read about people using Downy before. It is not something I'd do, but as long as it isn't hurting anyone more power to them.

.... She is dead serious about recommending Downy...
So, who's going to be the one to try it?
Some clothing is made from natural fibers...
Downy Ultra Liquid Fabric Softener – I lived in New Orleans and Washington, DC, two of the most humid places in the world. Where there is humidity, there is poofy and tangled Caroline hair. I mix Downy with the conditoner when deep conditonining. Also, before wrapping my hair at night, I spray it with mist of Downy and water. It lays the hair right on down! ($4 to 5 bucks. Target or Walmart!)

I still can't view the link... But I was reading Glamour magazine at the beach yesterday & one of their beauty tips was to rub a dryer sheet on freshly flat ironed hair. It said it would help keep the hair from getting frizzy longer. I thought that was crazy... And now this. There must be something to it
I won't be trying it though lol. Sent from my iPhone 4 using LHCF

Stearalkonium chloride is an anti-static compound which is why it's in softeners. By reducing the chance of static electricity buildup in clothes or hair, then clothes are less likely to cling/stick onto you and hair less likely to have flyaways.
While I've never owned a show cat or needed to do this, I seem to recall reading about Downy or other fabric softener being used in the final rinse solution to help condition the coat in preparation for a show. Cats lick their coat so as I type this I'm wondering how safe it is, although the idea is to rinse it out afterward. Still

Anyway, so I suppose using Downy to "tame" hair isn't so crazy after all. Like others though, I'm good. Flyaways have never really bothered me.

JMO but if you have to resort to using downy a fabric softener in your hair to get soft hair because absolutely no other hair product in the world works then I'd recommend trying a fade instead....

Conducted some research and according to a couple of articles, some people have used Downy for Hair growth/regrowth and softness:

I'm not surprised. I've heard stranger things being applied to hair on this board.

Oh God, I am allergic to fabric softeners which is one of the most toxic household chemical products to use. I would be in migraine hell if I got next to her.
