I personally like Jojoba oil - its lightweight. So if you find it's not enough, you can try the heavier oils. I suggest just the plain oil - no need to buy a specialty hair product. You can add a drop or two of scented oil to the jojoba oil for fragrence.

Recently, I've been using the L'Oreal Ever Curl conditioner and like it for my dry, wavy, coarse, thick hair.

Inexpensive? A jar of plain organic coconut oil is like $10 at Whole Foods. Is that considered a good price for it?

Trader Joes has coconut oil for $5.99 or $6.99

I personally think argan oil is better to fight the frizz. Check out the one from pro naturals, it's awesome!

You can get coconut oil for cheap at Costco. The one problem I have with it is it plugs the shower drain over time. Since it's a solid when at room temp, it turns into a solid in your drain and acts like cholesterol in your arteries would. I switched to argan oil.

Well of course, that's whole foods. It's maybe $7 at Target for the exact same thing. A little goes a long way!

You can get it for $5 at Trader Joe's!

I have straight, thick hair, and I use coconut oil as a mask. On Friday night I put it in my hair, wrap it in a bun, and leave it there until Sunday. Works great. You only need a little. I use it on everything, elbows, knees, feet, face (in winter), and even with that I only buy a tub every 6 months. For a multi-use moisturizer, I think 20 bucks a year is an absolute steal.

That is very interesting.

Op, Pantene is terrible for your curly hair. It is filled with silicones that choke the life out of your hair. Look at naturally curly.com. You want to get rid if silicones and sulfates.
