Under $5 Conditioners!
This list highlights conditioners and what the specific benefits of each product are. And check out my "conditioner hacking" post for how to add what might be missing. I'll update this post as I shop around.
Also - how about a "code" to help us sort through this? If a product is a standout in a particular area, it will have an image-code next to the name.

Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Conditioner ๐ฅ ๐งฌ ⚛
This product is all about detangling and a silky-soft feel. If you need lots of help detangling, this will do right by your hair! If your hair is easily over-softened, this might leave it a little slick for every-wash use. Amodimethicone provides extra, powerful "slip" as a protein-silicone based conditioning agent. A little Argan oil and Sugarcane extract for softening and hydration. And a tiny amount of conditioning Lemon protein, Wheat, Corn and Soy protein for preventing breakage and keeping hair hydrated. Don't be concerned about the Isopropyl alcohol in this formula, it's there to help dissolve ingredients like fragrance - but because it's in such a conditioning product, it isn't drying to hair.

Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Conditioner ๐ฅ
This conditioner uses Palm oil, which is very softening and adds detangling benefits. This product claims to be lightweight. It includes Aloe and Sugar extract for hydration. This product is less slippery than the previous 2 from Garnier, which may be helpful for hair that needs extra softness, but gets too flyaway quickly.
