This is something I have been thinking about for a very long time. I started here with hair severely damaged from over processing and have had to learn to deal with it. BF has quite damaged hair (virgin, but it has a great deal of damage because he doesn't care about it) When I tried to save my hair and when I care for bf's hair I noticed that damaged hair seems to get buildup quite soon and is picky with what goes on it.
Often you see advise about thick conditioners and oils, but our hairs goes stringy and waxy from all those products. Our hairs like moisture and a little bit of fat, but too much of all those things makes for buildup. It seems like a good old SLS shampoo is needed every wash.
When my hair has gotten healthier it can stand heavier products, more gunk and quite a lot of oil, but bf's hair still get that waxy stringy buildup if I give it too much of something. It make it hard to treat the hair because you have to choose between too much and too little.
I wonder why that is, is there anyone who has this problem too? How did you solve it?
