One of the best things about summer is the ability to go lighter in all aspects of beauty application. Transitioning from foundations to tinted moisturizers, bordeauxs to corals, and sweaters to sleeveless tops and dresses, really emphasize the ease of the season. This ease (believe it or not) can be translated to your natural hair care routine as well. If you’ve struggled with finding a lightweight conditioner that’s strong enough to tackle the brittlest of strands and combat frizz but lightweight enough to give hair movement, keep reading as I share a few of my favorite lightweight conditioners for natural hair.

Mixed Chicks Leave-in Conditioner

What I love most about the Mixed Chicks Leave-in Conditioner (aside from the clean smell) is that it’s formulated for a variety of hair textures – even weaves. The curl defining formula is perfect for that morning wash and go, without the need to cocktail a myriad of hair products. (Target.com, $19.99)

A great way to cleanse your hair while still adding moisture is through a co-washing treatment. This co-wash by Shea Moisture is infused with coconut and neem oils, which help to hydrate hair while also reducing breakage. It is also detergent and paraben free. (Drugstore.com, $11.99)
