Trying to figure out what is right for my hair is like trying to understand the universe in its entirety because there are so many options to choose from in the shops and I could do with a little help/advise in general narrowing down my choices, sometimes I feel like the world has been speeded up around me while I stand in the shampoo aisle looking at bottles of hair products.
Here's my hair treatment in general :
I can only afford relatively cheap products so dont really buy much over £3 if I can help it
I have very thick,slightly wavy, normal type, dyed hair to BCL/TBL
I dye my roots every 3 weeks and use their included brand intensive conditioner+ my own conditioner after treatment
I wash about a small palm/desert spoon of shampoo into my roots mostly and let the running water carry the rest of the soap to the ends (dimethlamine etc etc) 'Schwarzkopf supersoft repair and care' about £1 for a 400ml bottle
I condition with almost as much as my hand can hold which is about 1/3rd to 1/2 of a 250ml bottle (dimethicone) 'Schwarzkopf supersoft repair and care' about £1 for a 250ml bottle
I usually stick to the matching shampoo and conditioner because I assume this is good practice but is it ?
My hair can go for year without any split ends
I wash once my hair begins to feel 'claggy' or 'soiled' which is usually after about 10 days
I always wash using moderate temp water not too hot or too cold
I separate my hair into two bunches and carefully detangle starting at tips then brush working back to scalp, once at scalp I focus on pulling the oils from the nape into my lengths using a BBB.
I brush once a day
I only use loose scrunchies and rarely tie my hair tightly up
I try my best to protect from the elements i.e wind rain etc
I sleep with it down
I wear it down most of the time, though now it is at BCL/TBL I am starting to wear loose bunches more often
I never blow dry, straighten or use hairspray.
So what do you lovely boffins think ? where can I improve ?
Love to hear your advice
Thankyou
