 Hair Conditioners - Conditioning Treatments
Rinse-through Conditioners are the most commonly found and - being formulated for oily, normal and dry hair types - are great for use in your regular hair care regimen after shampooing for long-term healthy hair maintenance.
Moisture-rich versions of these deep conditioners are especially good for chronically dry hair because of the full penetration of the moisture agents in the product, as well as ingredients to then smooth the cuticle and seal in the moisture that has been added.
If you have trouble with dry, fly-away hair caused by daily shampooing, but daily conditioning causes your hair to be flat and appear oily at the scalp, a spray-on leave-in conditioner will allow you to target the ends of the hair where the dryness occurs.

 Hair Conditioners 101
Because the hair at the shaft and ends are "dead"; it is chemically inert and insoluble; therefore, many conditioners may claim to change the structure of the hair, but it's purely from a superficial standpoint.
Conditioners may coat the hair with a protein or polymer and this gives the simulation of thickness; but conditioners do not penetrate the hair and improve the internal fiber structure.
Leave-in conditioners stay in the hair until the next washing and do not require a rinse, but these types of conditioners are for damaged or dry hair, they often weigh fine hair down.

 Protecting Your Hair - Mechanical Engineer Studies Nanoscale Effects of Hair Conditioners
Hair conditioners can help protect your hair by replacing natural oils that are lost while shampooing.
Each hair shaft has two to three layers, most notably the cuticle -- which protects the inside of the shaft from damage -- and the cortex, made of long proteins that make hair elastic (it stretches before it breaks).
When hair is healthy, the edges of cuticles lie flat against the hair shaft, but when hair is damaged, those edges begin to peel away from the shaft.

 Hair conditioner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hair conditioners therefore usually contain cationic surfactants, which don't wash out completely, because their hydrophilic ends strongly bind to keratin.
Conditioners are frequently acidic, as low pH protonates the amino acids, providing the hair with positive charge and thus more hydrogen bonds between the keratin scales, giving the hair a more compact structure.
An easy and inexpensive way to condition light to medium-colored hair and improve the health of one's scalp is to mix 2 tablespoons (30ml) of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice (but not both) with 1 cup (250ml / 8 fl oz.) of water and use in small amounts after shampooing.
