I've tried simple conditioner and reacted to it although not as badly as I have others.

has anyone got any advice? Or suggested conditioners?

Do you know what you react to?

Where are you in the world?

[Ponymad21]

No idea what I react to! But whatever it is is in most things!

I'm in the uk

What all have you tried that you reacted to. A list of things would be nice.

Darn, probably any products I'd know are different then. But I edited your title to hopefully draw in people who know more.

I do vaguely remember someone washing with Sorbolene, if you feel like trying something utterly different.
Edit: Rats, nevermind, that's an Aussie product.

Could it be the fragrance? That would be my best guess.

Do you per chance get the conditioner on your scalp? If you do, I'd stop doing that, and it might get a *lot* better. If you CO-wash, maybe start washing with diluted shampoo or sulfate-free shampoo and using conditioner only from halfway down your lengths.

Your best bet is to stop using conditioner until you have an allergy test done to pinpoint what exactly is irritating you so badly. Conditioner is great, but if you use a mild shampoo less often, it's not 100% necessary. You can add a tiny bit of oil on the ends to keep them moisturized. Living tissue > dead protein.

I hope you get some answers soon!

I've got a lot of allergies and even baby products don't work on me. If you're already avoided fragrances then it could be some of the preservatives are causing problems for you or other additives. I simply don't use manufactured conditioners and looked into DIY hair masks. That worked for me. See here for ideas. Some don't use conditioners at all or some use a little bit of oil.
