Products and tools are very important for hair.
So... what exactly does it do?
It makes you pettably soft. (Modulo hair type.)
I'm not really clear as to what this is intended to be opposed to. Hair generally is soft, no?
Conditioner makes it softer, and (for me at least) easier to work with. Plus it moisturizes your hair, and helps detangle it.
Conditioner is important if you have any parts of your hair bleached (e.g. prior to coloring), to add moisture back.
Easier to work with in what sense? Why is moisturizing it good?
Easier to work with for styling. Moisturizing helps take care of your hair and avoid damage, and it's especially necessary if any part of your hair is bleached. It also feels good for other people to touch.
For someone with <1 inch hair who doesn't style it and doesn't have other people touching it, conditioner probably doesn't make a difference.
...that's really not informative. :-/
Dry hair is more likely to break, split, and peel.
Thank you.
It varies to a surprising extent. Frizzy hair feels kind of wooly, while hair that's unusually dry or fried from abuse of styling treatments can feel noticeably coarse, almost straw-like. Greasy hair is limp and kind of sticky. Even well-maintained hair feels different from person to person, but those differences are subtler.
