Hello everyone. I am a guy and need help with my hair.
I have dry, very fine and wavy hair with dandruff problems as well. A small hairstyle looks terrible on me so I keep a medium one but have to get a cut when they become long. I want to be able to keep long hair and just improve the general look of my hair. The good parts about my hair is that they are abundant and pure black and I want to maintain the natural colour for as long as possible.
Ideally what I want is silky, thick and straight hair. Ofcourse that's prolly not gonna happen but that's really the aim I keep working on. The problem is that since my needs are so much I dont understand what shampoo and conditioner to buy? They seem to only cater for a particular thing and I cant use like 3 different shampoos and what should be done?
Like there are moisturizing shampoos for dry hair, there are shampoos for thickening and shampoos for staightening. Using an anti dandruff shampoo is a must for me which really reduces the choices I have in shampoos. Currently I am using a loreal thickening anti dandruff shampoo for men and a loreal moisturizing conditioner for dry hair. I am pretty happy with how much my hair have improved and I dont always need to apply gel to keep them styled. But there's alot that can improve still.
Before that I was using a moisturizing shampoo as well as conditioner and that made my hair totally smooth and silk. But as I found it looks terrible on fine hair.
So what would you advice me to do? Remember I live in the sub continent so I wont be able to buy many of the products that you people use. I'll list the main brands available here so it can help you to give adivce,
Loreal, nivia, head and shoulders, pantene, sunsilk, garnier, dove, herbal essences and a few others I dont remember right now.
