      Shampoo exists for scalp, conditioner exists for long hair basically. You lather it into your hair held away from your head, keep it luscious and healthy looking

        I’ve had my hair long for most of my life. Trust me, I know about hair care. I just don’t see how there’s a problem with conditioner and the scalp. Also, there are 2 in 1 shampoo/conditioners already.

          OC is definitely correct that some conditioners say in the usage directions to avoid massaging them into the scalp. Source: had long hair and used conditioner for years, which is when I noticed this.

          Some people can get a build-up of oil if they use conditioner directly on the scalp. If you’ve ordinarily got a dry scalp it’s probably fine though.

          True! I wish they would all do that though. People keep on gifting me conditioner and it’s a pain to use
