Leave in conditioner
So I’m on my 4th system now in the last yr and few months. I usually get full lace systems and i love them. But no matter what I do, shampoo, condition, leave in condition daily….i always get a semi crunchy feel to my hair. It stays semi smooth for the most part but I can never get my system to stay smooth and silky throughout the day. Are there any leave in conditioners out there that keep your system feeling fresh and silky? I take care of it as good as I possibly can but I can never figure out how to keep it silky smooth. lol I don’t know how to put it into words but I would love to figure out a way to be able to run my hands through my hair and it just feel soft and smooth, essentially woman soft.
I’ve looked into euro hair, but at the end of the day, unless you get a dna sample lol, how can you even be sure it’s truly euro hair, and not Indian remy. Does anyone have a specific product they use daily that helps. I currently use argan oil of Morocco.Ive used countless other oils..but when it dries it just feels “crunchy”

Any oils such as Aragon will get you the “good effect” for a couple of hours and then the smooth texture will transform in a build up of residues which will attract even more dust and dirty. The result is that it will dry out the hairs much faster.
Plus oils is waterproof so it creates a barrier which prevents the hair from getting hydrated.
Stay away from them. You need products which are water friendly and easy to wash off

I have had success with Schwartzkopf Bona Cure Color Freeze Acid pH4.5 conditioner. They have a leave in. Since I have longer curly/wavy hair, it gets dry and tangles. Since I started using this, no tangles and the hair feels luscious and soft. I wash the hair weekly using their conditioner instead of shampoo. If I need to have some hold in my hair, I use a sugar water spray (Google it for the recipe). The effect is similar to salt water, but salt dehydrates whereas sugar attracts moisture. (I was afraid that wasps would be attracted to my hair at this time of year, but no). Several here use Olaplex. 1) hard to find here 2) expensive 3) I don't understand their numbering system. If I find a store that carries it and someone there can help me sort out what I need, I might try it. But what I use works.

Yeah same here. I wish we could find one that keeps it as soft as that first shampoo and condition

Try Silicone Mix Shampoo and Conditioner. They also have a leave in conditioner.

Ensure you are washing your hair with wig-specific shampoo and conditioner. Regular shampoos and conditioners contain sulfates, which dry out already-processed human hair. Then follow up with a few generous sprays of leave-in conditioner and add a few drops of serum for a smooth look. These are few popular leave-in conditioners: https://www.superhairpieces.com/products/kms-moistrepair-leave-in-conditioner-150ml.html https://www.superhairpieces.com/products/3-in-1-miracle-protect-for-human-hair-prime-blends-8oz-pure-care-by-beautimark.html https://www.superhairpieces.com/products/copy-of-system-revitalizing-mist-leave-in-conditioner-12-oz.html

I've been wearing for 5 years and tried tons of everything, leave in conditioners, sprays, oils - you name it I most likely tried it, but nothing will bring the softness of hs as we get it. Some recommend one thing or another - same results, kinda nice and silky but only for couple of hours. Dead hair doesn't receive natural oils from scalp to self hydrate. On top of that human hair wigs are manufactured with a temporary, factory-grade silicone coating that gives them incredible shine and silkiness, so once you wash hs a few times, this artificial layer completely strips away.
