Hi, I purchased this conditioner a few times, but then when 4C only came out I tried that. Here is what I noticed. When I was using this conditioner, I had very minimal, if any, shedding. My hair also felt very strong. The longer I used this conditioner, the stronger my hair became. This is very good conditioner! It does the job that it is intended to do. However, when using the 4C only conditioner, I noticed more shedding during and after shampooing. Now, I'm not saying that 4C only is a bad conditioner, but it did not do the best job for my hair. Therefore, I am returning to this conditioner and will use it religiously moving forward. I am not totally sure if my hair is 4C or 4B, or a combination of both, but the fact is that this is a perfect conditioner for my hair type.
