i have relatively long (23 in) hair and it's really thick, but it is really fine as well so it breaks a lot. any ideas for good conditioner to prevent this? i use pantine 10x strengthening conditioner and shampoo, as well as their restoritives conditoner and garneir frustice's long and strong conditioner on occasion. ideas, comments, advice, anything helps! thanks a ton! (i plan on growing it another... oh... 8-10in or so, so i want it to be strong!!)

For long and strong hair follow these steps
Hair breaking is a sign your hair needs more protein be sure your styling products contain a form of it and add more to your diet.
1.) Remove styling product residue which can dull hair and make it look damaged,you can use a clarifying shampoo or apple cider vinegar as a rinse followed by shampoo.
2.) once you have removed product build up,find a shampoo that does not contain Sodium laurel sulfate such as J/A/S/O/N or LAMAS shampoo and conditioner.only use products that do not contain synthetic ingredients because these will build up on your hair leading to limpness,and even loss of hair.
3.)whenever you blow dry your hair be sure to use a diffuser and and with a leave in conditioner or conditioning styling product.
4.) Be sure you are getting enough protein in your diet,and minerals through things like meat,nuts,and beans,essential fats like flax,fish and olive oil,minerals from green vegetables,spinach and seaweeds.take a balanced multi-vitamin and extra biotin,zinc and silica this will help stimulate hair growth from the inside out.
5.)get regular trims,thin hair can become damaged at the ends very easily keep your hair trimmed regularly so your ends stay protected,do not brush thin hair,especially when wet,use a wide toothed comb instead and be careful thin hair is fragile and will snap easily,don't use elastics or harsh ponytails loose hairstyles or up in a bun are best.

Mane 'n Tale conditioner works great . It started out for horses to strengthen their mane and tales. It's cheaper at the pet store then anywhere else.
