Hair has a layer of very tiny cells on the outermost layer of the hair shaft. These cells are arranged in the form of fish scales. When we shampoo our hair, the shampoo strips the hair of its moisture content and the outermost layer of cells stands out like spokes standing out of a wheel. This makes the hair look frizzy and gives it a rough appearance. During the monsoon, the humid weather makes hair go damp and look limp.
The frequency of shampooing goes up around this time of the year and this further strips the hair shaft of moisture. During the monsoon, rain water can also have a similar effect on hair.

When conditioner is applied to the hair shaft, it smoothens out these cells. The result is therefore smooth-looking, shiny hair which is easy to detangle and style. Conditioner on the hair is the equivalent of moisturiser on the skin. Conditioner also hydrates the hair shaft and reduces the chances of split ends due to brittle hair.

Although everybody needs a conditioner, the frequency of conditioning depends upon the texture of one¡¯s hair.

Conditioner should be used on the lower half of the hair length, while people with greasy hair should simply apply it to the tips. There are several conditioners available in the market. Broadly speaking, they come mixed with shampoos, or as stand alone conditioners or leave-in conditioners. Conditioner mixed in with shampoo is not very effective, as it gets washed away during the process of shampooing.

To use a standalone conditioner, wring out the shampoo from the hair and then take a dollop of conditioner and run it through the hair. You can run your fingers through the hair. Let it stay on the hair for a couple of minutes before you wash it off. Leave-in conditioner needs to be applied on towel-dried hair and is not to be rinsed out with water. If you are prone to split-ends, you can apply a hydrating serum to the tips of your hair to hydrate the shaft and minimize splits.

Conditioner is better avoided directly on the scalp skin as it is designed to moisturize the hair shaft and not the skin. When applied directly on the scalp, it may cause a reaction on the scalp skin. This can result in an itchy scalp and some people who are prone to dandruff may have an exacerbation of dandruff if the conditioner is applied directly on the scalp.
