If you're leaving twists in your hair for days, or weeks, at a time, it's important to add moisture daily. Lots of Curlies mist their hair with a DIY leave-in conditioner. Recipes vary, I change mine depending on what I have on hand. This is my current mix:
6 oz. spray bottle
squirt of fave conditioner
squirt of Taliah Waajid Protective Mist Bodifier
squirt of aloe vera gel
a few drops of rich oil (avocado, olive, castor)
a few drops of fave e.o (tea tree, lavender, rosemary)
water
The ratio is roughly 70/30, with the majority being water. I spray my hair with this 2x/day, and seal with an oil at night. Let's water our garden, ladies! Until next time....
Because I love myself I love my hair Because I respect myself I won't allow my voice to be silenced I care for myself MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT I am Beautiful I am Bold I am Black I am Kinky/Curly and this is My magazine ARTIST: Salena Barnes www.hatchcabinet.com

I just have a little water and flax seed oil mix that I put in my hair every night while combing it out. It really helps to keep it soft and the water helps when I'm detangling. I haven't come up with a good leave in conditioner yet...
