I dont understand my hair seems to be hard to manage. I take my showers in the mornig before school, and i blow dry it. Ive been using different shampoos and conditioners because after awhile, it doesnt work anymore. When i blow dry it, its weird, it feels oily, and dry/fried. I cant manage it, so i put it up. No shampoo or conditioner works....:( What do i do? Whats wrong? and wat is good for me?
I need my hair back....thank ypu.

You probably have a lot of build up in your hair. Majority of shampoos and conditioners nowadays contain silicone and silicone causes severe build up. So what you are experiencing is normal. That said, you need to use a clarifying shampoo once a week to remove the silicone from your hair. After a while, your hair starts acting normal. Try Neutrogena Clarifying shampoo.

Ok. Well, a lot of the advice given to you is ok but it's not true for all hair types. I currently have Biolage shampoo and it gets the same way after using it for a while... so, what I do recommend (hopefully it works for you) is: Buy a clarifying shampoo and a normalizing conditioner, and alternate it with a shampoo/conditioner you know you liked at one point. Your hair gets build up after a while if you use a lot of moisturizing shampoos/conditioners so washing it with a clarifying shampoo will remove the excess build up. Also, don't repeat the wash, especially if you wash your hair daily. I don't think leave-in conditioners are a good idea, and if you can do without the blow dryer it is best. If you're like me that has wavy hair, put some gel in it and let it air dry, it won't look so poofy it will have some style and you won't put your hair through a lot constantly. If you dry your hair than straighten, that just makes it worse... plan enough time to let it air dry, than straighten it, at least it will only go through one heat process instead of two.

First off, you might be using too many different products. Try a 2 in 1 only. Like panteen. on the labels it will say what it's for. Dry, volume, thinning hair, etc. that'll help with the oilyness. Second, the blow dryer. I know you can live without it, so try using a diffuser. You can go to a salon or even Walgreens, to buy a blowdryer that has one. That'll stop the frizz.
If this doesn't work, try looking at your habits. Do you swim alot? Are you taking medication with side effects similar to your problematic hair?

First of all you need to stop blowdrying your hair so much....why do you think its fried. secondly get a reconstuctor to start ot help with the damage you have already done. And its not necessary to wash your hair every single day what that does is strip the moisture from your hair...the natural oil your hair creates. try using leave in conditioners as well....most importantly LET IT AIR DRY UNLESS ITS COMPLETELY NECESSARY TO BLOW DRY IT. Maybe you should try washing it at night like an hour or two beofre be and letting it air dry while you watch tv

If you hair is oily then use a shampoo and conditioner for that type of hair dont over style it either cuz your just ruining it if you can leave it dry natural as it makes it much healthier

Well the truth is that quality products like Bed Head and Biolage make a difference. Unfortunately they aren't cheap. However there are secrets you can do. My favorite is once a week or so leave the conditioner in your hair, pop a towell in the microwave and wrap your hair in it for about 15 minutes. Then wash it out you will be amazed. Good luck : )

when u put conditioner wrap yo hair in a towel or shower cap for minutes so that it really moisturizes it then comb it out and let it air dry by it self but if u need to go to skool early i suggest u do the procedure only on weekends and let it go through the week and dont wash yo hair every morning

I think that you need
A) sunsilk shampoo/conditioner
B) leave in conditioner
Theres this great leve in conditoiner and it detangles at the same time! I think it is dove, but dont take my word for it ;). you will find it at a simple store like Wal-Mart.
Good luck!
