Shampoos/Conditioners that Protect Hair Color?
Comments (9)I love the Pureology products. I alternate then with Bumble &Bumble. I have long hair and we play a lot with the color. I always though salon products were a way too expensive but I finally decided to invest in a couple of giant bottles. I paid around $80 or $90 for those first two bottles. I found that you use so much less of the good stuff that those bottles lasted me two years plus! That's pennies on the dollar I was paying when I was spending around 10 dollars a month on drugstore products. I've found in my area at least the salon products are cheaper in my salon than they are are Target etc....See MoreAny one use Fanci full rinse
Comments (12)Thanks for all the responses. The last time I did anything to my hair was EONS ago. My DD talked me into doing a semi permanent color a tiny bit of strawberry blonde onto my dirty blonde. My dh was away on business and she assured me that it would wash out in a day or two. Yeah right! I looked like Carrot-top! I must of washed my hair every hour. No help, though it did take the 'brassiness' away. LOL! That was in a green and tan box. They still make it, I'm not sure what the brand is. Umm, Natural Instincts? So if you don't dye your hair will the fanci ful make the gray look a tad darker than gray? The ad I saw says "Enriches color & adds shine Gently blends gray away No ammonia, No peroxide" This is called a temporary hair color . The ad says " Rinses my gray away, right away. I just blend in the color and in a matter of minutes I look and feel instanly younger. It's gentle enough to use every day' and when I'm ready, it shampoos out" Patti -I am worried about the sweating brown thing ! I thought I would just buy a shade of one what they call the gold category. If it 'disguises' the gray .......See Morelather,rinse,repeat
Comments (45)Very interesting thread! I have relatively thick, straighter than straight hair. On one half of my head that is. The other side likes to do a little flip thing just to annoy me. And to make matters worse I have a huge ridiculous cawlick that runs down the back of my scalp and when my hair goes flat, the cawlick parts like the Red Sea. I find that the more conditioners that are in shampoo's the flatter my hair is. If I use conditioner after I shampoo my hair is horribly limp. THEN it gets all dry and brittle and even more flat. THEN I buy more expensive shampoo's and conditioners to try to fix it only get battered hair. So, I stopped with the expensive shampoo's and started using dish detergent - not all the time but at least once a week. Then apply a little conditioner and my hair is great. When I shampoo with regular shampoo, I will use a vinegar rinse and NO conditioner at all. The dish detergent (usually Sunlight) gets out all the hair products and conditioners that weigh the hair down. My hair has never been healthier-looking (for dead cells lol) and I colour my hair - myself. Hair salon dyes have too much conditioner. I don't use shampoo for colour treated hair just ol Sunlight and regular conditioner and my colour doesn't fade. My hair stylist are always commenting on what good shape my hair is in and when I tell them what I use - they stop with the sales pitches on their products. LOL I've recently started using Sunsilk Anti-flat shampoo and conditioner and I like it. It is weightless and very mild and my hair does seem to be fluffier longer when I use it. deb ab, I've often wondered about those got2be products. I need something that won't flatten. I use the worse products - Final Net hair spray. My hair is short and spikey (perfect style for straight hair) but I have a hard time finding products that will make the spikes last longer and not flatten. I envy people with curly hair! I have a hard time getting a good hair cut and am always looking for someone who specializes in straight hair. One little slip up when cutting straight hair and it is so noticeably. That's why I got the spikes - so you can't notice if it is slightly off kilter. Who knew I'd have so much to say about hair? lol BJ...See MoreFDA investigating reports of hair loss, hair breakage, balding...
Comments (14)I think, like so many things in life, what will work well for one person is a disaster for someone else I have very fine, thin, frizzy hair. Back when I tried Wen, I was also exercising hard every day - and I sweat like a pig. :-) Wen was a fiasco in my hair. First of all, I second the comment above about it never feeling clean. My scalp sweats, and the Wen just never seemed to get the sweat off the way regular products do. My scalp itched like crazy. What made me finally give it up though was that my hair got progressively more limp and yet more frizzy with each passing day. I hung in there for a while and tried everything I could think of - more product, less product, leaving it on longer, rinsing it off quickly. Didn't matter, Wen and my hair were not meant to be. I was turning into Roseann Roseannadanna on the stuff. Wasn't the look I was after. Glad people out there like it, but it never worked for me. I understand how it may clog pores or whatnot, the stuff felt heavy to me in my hair - which is maybe why my fine, limp hair just kept getting more and more limp, all the while fanning out like a peacock strutting its stuff....See Moresowngrow (8a)
