I was already using a curly focused conditioner from a different brand and then Olews leave in or remedy, depending how bad my hair was. I added this as the old product I was using was out of stock. Absolutely gobsmacked the impact this made. My hair is soft and shiny and curls are clumping much better. Really amazed. Wish it came in massive bottles as I have very long thick hair, one won't last me that long
