How often do you shampoo? Perhaps you could try some 'cowashing' (conditioner only)? Some people wash their hair with just a silicone free conditioner. Although, if it is mineral build up that wouldn't help. It rings alarm bells that your hair was totally ok before the mane n tail. My guess is that perhaps it's gone back to being crunchy because the 'damage' that's happened with the protein isn't really going to just disappear on its own. I dyed mine and it became like that, I'm still dealing with it in my ends now!
Honestly I'd just go easy on the shampoo, load up on conditioner and then while your hair is still damp I'd run a couple of drops of Argan, jojoba or almond oil through it, focussing on the ends. If that doesn't help then mineral build up might be something worth looking at!
