Deep conditioning is key to maintaining natural hair. Yes, natural hair needs water and moisture. Find a deep conditioner that works for you. I make my own using the Cantu Shea Butter Condtioning Repair Cream as my base. When you get home in the evening or on the weekend, liberally apply your conditioner and place a plastic shower cap on your head for as long as you want. Using your body's natural heat, deep condition your hair til your heart is content. I do this once a week.
