I thought leaving it for even longer then 3 minutes may give even better results. I was referred to this article by the Beauty Judge forum, thank you so much for the post. I'm gonna have a look to see what other answers you got. Got a feeling that this site could be addictive!

I have natural african type hair and deep conditioners used in conjunction with a heat cap are the only way to go for moisture, softness and elasticity.

The secret is in applying and distributing hair conditioner through your hair (and it could take a long time if your have long hair). But when you have done that  - you can rinse them straight away. I actually noticed that there is no real difference if I apply conditioner for 3 minutes and then rinse it or rinse it straight away (that happens when I am a bit in a rush). There is a great article here. [...] [...] There is no need to leave hair conditioner for a long time (unless it is a treatment conditioner, i.e mask).

I know that my hair feels different and is more manageable after I leave certain conditioners in longer. For example, Elasta QP DRP 11 I hated hated hated that conditioner. The instructions said something about 15 minutes under a dryer. I popped it in after I shampoo'd and 3-4 minutes after working it in I rinsed it out. My hair was a tangle mess and dry. I than decided to leave the conditioner in for 30 minutes minimum and my hair was soft and detangled easily. I tried the 3-4 minutes way again and my harm was once again hard to detangle and dry. What can account for this obvious experimental difference? I have to say that this post was informative, but not necessarily what will work for everyone.
