I need to place an order very soon. Which do you prefer? Do you ever use the conditioners rather than the Direct Leave-in for the same or similar results?

Giovanni Tea Tree Conditioner

Giovanni 50/50 Balanced Conditioner

Giovanni Smooth As Silk Conditioner

My favorites are:

Giovanni 2chic olive & avocado

Giovanni 2chic Argan & Brazilian keratin

I use these as deep conditioners (steam) & I don't rinse them out so they turn into leave in's.

I love smooth as silk for pre-poo'ing & co washing in the summer.

I have used giovanni direct but once I was out, I never repurchased. Conditioners labeled as leave in's are too wimpy for my hair, I need full strength.

Oh & I have used and liked the 50/50 but I found for my hair, all the conditioners from the Eco collection works about the same so I chose to stick with one (the smooth as silk)

I love love LOVE the Smooth as Silk conditioner as a deep treatment, pre-poo, steamer, and leave in. Lately, I'm using it as a deep conditioner under a heat cap.

I use the Tea Tree shampoo weekly, but I have not tried the conditioner.

I'm another fan of the Smooth as Silk conditioner. I use it to co wash. I used to use the 50 50 and was happy with it. I bought the SaS because they were out of the 50 50 and I find it more moisturizing. I use the SaS shampoo occasionally and like it, too.

I add the Direct Leave In to my spray bottle since water alone doesn't cut it for me in a spritz and the leave in is too thick to use straight out of the bottle.

Smooth As Silk. Love it as a dc w/steam. Great for detangling too.

I tried most of the line and the only thing I loved was the Tea Tree Shampoo. One of my fave shampoos ever.

Thanks, all. I think I'll get the Direct Leave-in, the SAS and Magnetic Restruxturing Conditioner. They have some called the Wellness/Chinese Botanical. Maybe I'll get a wax as well.

Direct Leave in is a detangler par excellence. I can't use it solo, but with Queen Helene Royal Curl and a hood dryer I get a temporary retexturizing!
