Hey y’all

I’m still new here and New to hair treatments. Every month or two I like to go to a salon sort of shop here in Australia and try all the top hair treatments. The first one was de Lorenzo equilibrium but it didn’t do much for me and it actually made my hair more dry. I explained that to the lady and she explained that it’s got protein in it and my hair is not coloured or bleached and not that damaged so she recommended another one called make my hair soft. The same thing happened! I looked into the ingredients a bit more and realised it had silk proteins. Did she even listen to me?! I don’t seem to have a problem with the MUK moisture treatment (the one in the pink tube). I hope you guys know these brands. Can anyone explain this? Should I avoid protein? Is it because my hair isn’t THAT damaged? Should I stick to moisture. I’m confused.. why would she recommend me another protein one. I can list ingredients if needed. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum! :D

First off, it doesn't have to cost a lot of money to do basic hair care. That is one thing that is blatantly obvious when you scroll through the forum. :)

I would stop going to salons and take matters into your own hands. Salons and hair dressers not listening... it's an ongoing thing here. Sadly.

I would do a clarify wash (sulfate wash) and then apply your conditioner, and do that a few washes.

What products are you using for your usual washes?
