Curly Haired Friends, HELP

[L.Jane]

Hi all. My hair is driving me nuts and I need a new Shampoo and Conditioner. My hair is extremely dry lately. Any Recs on fantastic shampoos and conditioners for curly hair?

THANKS!

If you are looking for drugstore brands, I have been using the herbal essences in the bright orange bottles - manderin and pearl.

It tames the frizzies.

It's not cheap but I love Biolage ULTRA hydrating shampoo and conditioner. My salon uses Aquage (awesome!) but that is even more than the Biolage.

I like Pantine products. I use either the volumn, ice, or curl formula.

I would only wash your hair with conditioner at least every 2-3 washes if your hair is dry. Also a trim may help in addition to a deep condition...as in put the conditioner on your hair and put a shower cap on for an hour or leave it over night if you can stand it. DH always says "sexy" in a sarcastic tone when I do this -eyeroll.

Yes, I was also going to suggest not shampooing for at least a week or two. If you don't want to sleep in the a shower cap, just put conditioner in your hair first thing when you shower, then put the cap on. At least you'll get 20 minutes (or how long it takes you to shower) of conditioning. Make sure that your styling product doesn't contain any alcohol, it can dry out your hair.

Aveda is great but pricey. Out of the drugstore brands I prefer John Frieda Brunettes line.

I use Aveda Dry Remedy and it ROCKS.

There is a super conditioner in that line I use once a week and that is really nice too.

I wash no more than every third day. That REALLY helps.

I use BED HEAD TIGI, FOxy Curls. I live by it when I where my hear curly. It may not be so much your shampoo/ conditioner but the products you are using? Are you using any type of sleek or leave in conditioner?
