As you have high-porosity hair, you definitely benefit from using a conditioner. You can use a lighter one that won't weigh down your hair as much or even just use a small amount of a heavier one. Sometimes it can help to leave the conditioner in your hair a little longer as well. This can give you hair more of a chance to absorb some of the product, making it a little easier to wash out. Therefore experiment a little with: - different amounts of conditioner - different types of conditioner (heavy/ light) - leaving the conditioner in for differing amounts of time.
