I've never tried on dry hair. I'd be curious to know what the ladies think.

I've never tried it either; or even though about it. I'd like to know too, but I don't think it would be the same using it on dry hair. But let's see; I learn something new everyday; this may be another lesson.

Anything Is Possible
I apply mine shortly after rinsing deep conditioner. Neutrogena Triple Moisturizer can use daily on dry hair.

Yes, on the days you don't wash your hair you can dampen it. I just put some water from the faucet in my hair with my hands... or you can use a spray bottle.
I have used moisturizer on dry hair too with good results. It depends on the moisturizer... I don't think that putting a thicker moisturizer on dry hair would work too well, but with some creamy to watery moisturizers, it can work well.

I put my leave in after I rinse out my DC and before I rollerset/braidout/whatever.
On days I don't wash my hair, if I need a moisturizer I will apply one. For the most part, my leave in is not the same as my moisturizer.

This is exactly what I do too.
A leave-in conditioner and a moisturizer are two different things (IMO); serves different purposes, and are used at different times.

What is the difference?
I've never thought it made sense (no offense) to have a different leave in and moisturizer. They are the same thing imo... just different labeling/marketing.

i kno for me i read the directions which suggested it could be used on dry hair. So i use the ntm silk touch cream leave in on my dry hair which works great but it did absolutely nothing as a leave in on my wet hair. I use Rusk smoother for my official wet hair after wash leave in.

I apply my leave-in after I DC,wash,etc. I blot my hair with the towel before I put it on, instead of putting it on wet since the directions said to apply to damp hair. Then I proceed with styling, either spritzing water or other moisture mix and sealing. But it depends I guess. But on days I don't wash, I just use my moisturizer and seal.

natural for good
On wash days, I apply Giovanni Direct leave-in on damp hair after wash and DC. I will then style, or seal with evco.
On days I do not wash, I apply moisturizer at night, specifically jane carters hair nourishing cream:
Ingredients: Purified Water, Shea Butter, Kokum Butter, Illippe Butter, Mango Butter, Vtamins A, D, & E Orange, Grapefruit, Palmarosa, Cedarwood, Geranium, Ylang Ylang, Geranium, Bergamot, Rosemary Essential Oils, Jojoba, Glycerin, Polysorbate 80, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl acrylate Crosspolymer, Phenoxyethanol, Potassium Sorbate, Sorbic Acid...
.
Then I seal and cover with silk scarf.
