What is a really great Shampoo & Conditoner?

Question

I am having a really difficult time with my hair. It is extremly think, and possibly dyed one too many time! I am getting a lot of spilt ends also. I just want a Shampoo & Conditoner that will make my hair feel clean without overdrying or making it too greasy feeling. Something that smells great too! Right now I am using; Tigi, Bed Head Self Absorbed.

I don't want anything you can buy at Wal-mart either. Using Pantene Prov got my hair this dead. The Paul Mitchells and Redkins aren't working either. Nothing is bringing my hair back?

Answer 1

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN PANTENE IS NOT THE BEST PRODUCT OUT THERE
do you know how much shine spray and lighting they put on whatever model they are using for that particular pantene commercial? AAAAAALLLLLLOOOOOOTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!etc.......they give you the illusion that you will have perfect hair when you use their product. not going to happen

the thorn in a stylist's side is pantene

pantene will build up on the hair and create a barrier against any product
this then prevents the products from getting to the medula (the inner parts of the cuticle)
I reccomend that you not change your shampoo and conditioner too often (if you find something you like stick with it)
use a clarifying shampoo (for build up) at least twice a month.
get a trim every 6-8 weeks
get a leave in conditioner just for your ends
questions to you- are you aware that Redken just came out with the Chemistry System
its a deep conditioning system that can be tailored to your specific problem.
any Hair Cuttery Salon will have it.
as for the greasy feeling stop putting the conditioner directly on your scalp doing this too much can make your hair worse.
have you tried the Matrix Sleek line? (orange packaging) makes your hair feel silky and smooth, smells pretty good too, not too overwhelming
good luck

Answer 2

Find a salon wherever you live that carries top of the line products. Matrix. Paul Mitchell, Goldwell. Aveda has their own salons so they are the very top. See what your stylist recommends too ,she should know your hair. Just going by what you say maybe you should try the Matrix "Sleek Looks" buy the whole system though. It works well when you do. There is another product that I absolutely love for split ends..."Ego boost" by Bed Head. If you straighten your hair with an iron get a CHI iron they cause less damage. After you have put the ego boost in your hair and dried it when you get to the ends, slow down a LITTLE as you are pulling the iron over the hair. The product will seal the ends together until the next time you wash it. It is wonderful! You will love it!

If you haven't been to a professional in a long time, please, start going. Get your self a healthy cut to begin with and keep split ends at bay by trimming every 4-6 weeks...depending on how you treat your hair. Have deep conditioners done every 2-3 weeks until you have your hair back in shape. Then you can cut down to once every 4-6 weeks.

Answer 3

I like Biolage myself. It smells really good!

To be honest I worked with hair stylists (and they were pricey too) and they would sell the more expensive stuff, but would use VO5 which is super cheap. The shampoo and conditioner will not really make your hair damaged. It is all the dying that will. Use a hair serum for frizzy hair to make it look healthier.

Answer 4

first get ur hair trimmmed and then dont use harsh shampoos like pantene which has lot of chemicals so go for a herbal shampoo and conditioner which are made of natural ingredients .massage ur hair with warm oils like olive, almond, coconut one hour before shampoo this really gives ur hair a very healthy look
Good luck

Answer 5

Hi i would suggest you go in for a shampoo that is made from natural products than those that contain more of chemicals... any shampoo that contains lime, henna, shikakai, etc... are good for hair... henna is a good conditioner too... my suggestions pertain to pretty young Indian women... i am sorry if you aren't an Indian!! Indian women have beautifully glowing black hair that adds to their beauty...
