Do you think is it wise to use hair conditioner after every hair wash? I was quite concern about it. Because recently i found that, i tend to fall-out some of my hair when i use hair conditioner after every hair wash. But, for my sister, her hair doesn't fall-out although she shampoo and conditioning her hair often. Should i need to start avoid hair conditioner?

I use conditioner every day during showers. This moisturizes and detangles it, so that it won't get torn or pulled out when I comb or brush it afterward. I used to wash my hair with shampoo also every day, but learned that it dries out my hair too much. So I don't shampoo every day now, but make sure to condition each day. On shampoo days, I use extra moisturizing/intensive hair care conditioner right after to help protect. I'd never heard that it wasn't wise to condition after every cleaning. If I did that, my hair would be a big ball of tangls.

Hmm, have you asked your doctor before, or perhaps some hair dresser if this is so? Are you on any hair thinning meds?

Maybe, i plan to go for a visit to the hair specialist, if this problem gets more serious. I had asked a few hair dressers, but seems not much help they can give. But, i see myself ended-up buying so many kinds of hair products that don't really helps much..Waste a lot of money...

I always use hair conditioner. MY hair falls, as yours does but I think it´s just hair that had fallen before and the hair conditioner only lets it fall as it unmesses the hair.

If possible, i just hope it is that way. But, i still have concerned when seeing my hair fall quite a lot sometimes, usually after i use the hair conditioner. Hope i am able to find a good solution to it..

I do not think it is the conditioner that causes your hair to fall out, it could be changes in your hormones or just your hair cycles. I have very thick hair and it falls out and re grows all the time, it is crazy. Plus I use conditioner every time I wash my hair, but I have to I have very thick coarse hair, if I do not condition it it is wild.

This might be the point, too. I will try asking my family doctor and see whether he got a good solution to it. If not much help, then i will visit the hair specialist and see how they can solve it.. Yes, your hair really needs conditioner..

I shampoo my hair every other day and use conditioner everyday. The key here is to find the conditioner that matches your hair type. Too much shampoo dries the hair, but conditioner softens and moisturizes it. It's actually good for one's hair. Again, it is important that you find the conditioner that is just right for you.

Actually, i had been trying quite a few types of good and expensive hair conditioner but it don't really works. Now, i am trying the internal system healing, see how it works. If it don't really works, my family doctor had suggested me to visit the hair specialist as my last option..

Actually, nothing new about it. You just need to eat a balanced meal of all the nutrients that you need to build a healthy hair. I am still at the starting stage, so i not sure whether it will fully works on me. Just hope it works..

Wow, I had never heard that. Why is it? I thought it moisturize/detangles it. It definitely detangles. But my hair dries out easily, so use conditioner every day. Is it because it makes it heavier to fall out??

Are you sure about this matter? This is my first time heard about this matter. From where do you read about it?

If you're sure the hair conditioner is what causes your hair to fall out, then don't use it. It's probably just an individual reaction. I don't use hair conditioner because I don't like to have to wash my hair every day, which I would if I used it. My hair isn't too unmanageable without it, but what I do when it gets that way is to put just a bit of olive oil on it. You might try that instead of conditioner. Just put a little olive oil in the palm of your hand, rub your hands together, then smooth it into your hair wherever it needs it.

I have used conditioner for a very long time after each shampooing and have never had a problem with hair falling out. It may be you have some other problem. not really sure if the conditioner makes it fall out but I would not continue using it if it falls out more when you use it. If you still experience hair falling out even after you discontinue the conditioner I would go see a doctor.

Yeah, now i don't use hair conditioner on every day basis. I use it once in every two days and see how is the condition. If it's still the same, perhaps i will go to the hair specialist and have a check about it..Thanks for giving me some good advice..

Yes, I do use a conditioner after shampooing my hair.It makes my hair smooth.I use Dove Conditioner Breakage Therapy.You should be using a good quality conditioner. The conditioner does help my hair because it does not frizz out. I only condition my hair twice a week and I shampoo my hair every other day. Shampooing the hair helps to get rid of an oily scalp, because when one has an oily scalp you can get dandruff. I personally have not got dandruff by using a conditioner nor have I heard of anyone I know get it either. But I have read that by using too many certain hair products such as hair sprayers or colorants can lead to dandruff.So,I prefer avoiding these stuffs.

Yeah, maybe i will give a try to this therapy conditioner and see how is the result. I also need daily shampooing as my hair also easily gets oily. I seldom use those other hair products, as well as i think it consumes a lot of time. I prefer to go without using them..

I only use conditioner on my hair every once in a while. in my opinion i do not think that you need to use it every time. Only when your hair really needs it. but i also have a few friends that also use it every time that they was their hair. so i guess that it is up to each individual person as to how much they feel that they need it.
