Dove Intensive Repair Shampoo & Conditioner
Believe me. . this stuff works wonders for your hair. After the first use I never imagined using any other product! Before, my hair was so rough and nasty. Then I used this and my hair felt so silky and smooth like I never had all that chemical damage to my hair! Of course everyone knows that it is not good to wash your hair everyday so when you do . . use this and you will not be disappointed with the results. Even when I straightened or curled my hair you could not tell I had one inch of deadness in my hair! I also apply very very little of the conditioner to my hair and leave it in after I'm done. This increases the results more. (I only apply it to my ends)
Don't feel like spending money on Dove? It's quite pricey for some people! Here's my alternative.
Tresemme Moisture Rich Shampoo & Conditioner
This works just as good!!
John Frieda Frizz Ease Hair Serum - Extra Strength
It is amazing!
My hair has so much history. I've bleached it plenty of times for highlights to get it as blonde as possible to doing the half and half look. (Half Cinnamon Brown & Half Blonde). From that process my hair was breaking like crazy and got extremely gummy! You apply this after you are out of the shower to your dead brittle ends. Depending on the amount of damage on your hair, eye ball how much you need. I have very thick hair and very brittle dead ends so I apply two pumps. For thin brittle dead ends one pump is enough. You can tell a difference after your first use of this heaven sent serum! I use this every single day.
Be sure to try and avoid applying any type of heat to your hair. Avoid it as much as possible.
There are many heatless ways to style your hair!
For example.
This is what I do for those who have curly or wavy hair
-*Apply Garnier Fructis Curl Sculpting Cream Gel
(After your shower. You can apply this to damp, dry, or wet.)
-*Dove Hair Spray Extra Strength
( I like this spray because it does not make my hair so hard and crunchy looking as regular hair spray days. Spritsing makes it more natural and healthy looking.)
When applying both products tease your hair around lightly with your fingers and throw it in the direction you want it to go.
For straight hair
-*Apply the Garnier Fructis Curl Sculpting Cream Gel.
-* Make a braid starting from the mid-top of your head.
Again you can do this with wet, dampy, or dry hair.
Leave the braid in as long as you'd like but at least for an hour to get a nice bit of waves. For better results leave it in longer.
If your doing this while your hair is wet or damp. After you release your braid spritz in some Dove Hair Spray (the bottle not can) and tease it a little to lock your waves and make them more noticeable.
You can also blow dry your hair but try to avoid using hot! Use the cool. It may take longer but we're trying to keep/get healthy hair here! :)
I hope this was helpful to you all.
