I have two products that I use for conditioning: Adwoa Blue Tansy Reparative Conditioner is my go-to at the moment, but I also have Shea Moisture's Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Conditioner with Sea Kelp & Argan Oil -- though the one I currently have is the leave-in conditioner.
I like to be able to alternate between the two when I notice that my hair may be a little brittle from too much protein from the Adwoa one, I will use the Shea Moisture one for a little bit. Neither of these products have coconut or aloe vera in them, and I like that they are the source of protein for my hair as none of the other products that I use have any protein in them.
I have learned that though my hair needs it, I do have to be careful about how much protein it gets, and it has been a difficult balance to figure out. This does get easier over time as you get to know your hair better after being on your curly hair journey for a little while.
