My hair is SO dry no matter what profuct I use!?

I've been dying my hair for the past year, every 3 months. I stopped dying my hair about a month ago. I go and get deep conditionings, I use shampoo and a LOT of conitioner and leave it in for 3 minutes. I also get regular trims. So..any advice? Do you recommend anything?

Shampoo every other day and condition only everyday. Shampoo using either Herbal Essences, Pantene, or Garnier Fructis.

Stop dying your hair. Avoid straightening your hair as much as possible. At most, straighten or blow dry your hair once a week.

You don't have to use a lot of conditioner. It should be about the size of a.......I don't know. But it should be smaller than the amount of shampoo you use.

You don't have to get deep conditioning professionally. You can treat your hair to a leave in conditioner twice a week. I recommend the one from Garnier Fructis, $4.

Try these moisturizing home made recipes:

To prepare a realy quick hair conditoner try this:

1 egg + 1 tsp vinegar + Glycerin

OR

1 egg + Honey + 2 tsp olive oil.

Massage this mixture all over and leave for 15 - 20 mins and then wash off with shampoo.

Soft hair: Warm up olive oil in the microwave and put it on dry hair, making sure you distribute it evenly. Wrap in a towel for a half hour, then wash your hair.

Hair rinse: Dilute 1 cup of apple cider vinegar in a quart of warm water. After you shampoo, rinse your hair with that; it makes it very shiny.

A very very cheap recipe? Rinse your hair in cold water. It's free and it makes your hair shiny.

Avocado Deep Conditioner

For deeper conditioning wrap a hot, damp towel around your head over the plastic, or use a hair dryer set to a low to medium heat setting.

Banana Bread Head

Have a couple of bananas that have ripened beyond their prime? Don't throw them away! Treat your hair to this vitamin-rich conditioning pack by blending a banana with a tablespoon or two of honey, plus a few drops of almond or vanilla extract for extra shine and a yummy fragrance that will remind you of mom's fresh-baked banana bread.

Ingredients:

* 1-2 ripe bananas

* 1-2 tablespoons honey

Directions:

Mix together banana, and honey in a blender. Wet hair with warm water and apply. For extra penetration, use plastic shower cap or wrap your hair with a towel. Wait about 20 minutes - perfect time to try the banana mask below - then rinse thoroughly, following with shampoo and conditioner as usual.

Mashed banana functions as a mucilage, much like aloe vera gel, protecting hair from environmental damage and smoothing frizzy flyaway hair. By bringing moisture to the surface of your scalp, this pack also serves as an excellent treatment for a dry, flaky scalp.

Caribbean Conditioner

Avocados are just one of the fruits grown in abundance on the West Indies islands near South America. Islanders enjoy them for their rich velvety texture and buttery taste, which compliments spicy West Indies cuisine. Avocados' monosaturated fat is good for the heart when consumed but the protective properties of this fruit's fat are also good for the hair when applied in an inexpensive, easy-to-prepare conditioning treatment.

Ingredients:

* 1 ripe avocado, mashed

* 2 tablespoons yogurt

* 1 small lime

Directions:

Grate 1-2 tablespoons of zest from the outer skin of the lime; reserve. Mash the pulp of one very ripe avocado together with 2 tablespoons of yogurt and add lime zest . Massage mixture thoroughly into your hair and scalp. It's best if your hair is already wet and warm from the shower to aid absorption of the conditioning oils. Wrap hair with a plastic shower cap or wet towel, let penetrate for 20 minutes. Shampoo and lightly condition.

Wash less often, watch the products you use make sure they are not alcohol based. I have found that I have good luck with the dyed hair shampoo and conditioner. I use a couple of Great clips products to make it lay down too, along with a flat iron.

Olive oil masks for your hair. Warm some olive oil in the microwave for a few seconds so it's just warm and not hot. Rub it all over your hair and then wrap in a warm towel for about 30 minutes before rinsing out. My mom used to do this for her dry coarse hair every couple of weeks for extra conditioning.

Go to a beauty supply store and buy a protein conditioner. It is very healthy for your hair follicles and restores natural moisture. You could also try a a LEAVE in conditioner.

OR ..... Soak your head in olive oil. It is all natural and will wash out.

Try washing your hair only once or twice a week and pin your hair up at night so that the ends of your hair is close to your scalp. That way the natural oils of your scalp will moisturize and distribute through your roots.

IF all else fails, use mayonaise. its very healthy and moisturizing for your hair also.

I had the same problem when i first got highlights. Well i used Sebastian Intensive Treatment its in a little pack it costs like $2. I did that every week for a month. It works great for restoring it. Every day i use Biosilk oil called Silk Therapy it makes my hair shiny and not oily nor dry just perfect. I use that every day after i take shower and it will give it its healthy shine again. Never use hot nor cold water use it just in between because you don't want to cause dandruff or over drying or even oily hair.

You may just be using the wrong products. Use a deep conditioner a few times a week that is for damaged hair. I really like Redken Butter Treat, which is a deep conditioner that you can use 3-4 times a week. Also, for every day, you may want to get a new shampoo and conditioner (Redken has a few shampoos and conditioners that are really good for damaged hair: All Soft, Smooth Down, or Extreme). You mentioned you have to shower daily, but does that necessarily mean you need to wash your hair daily, too? If possible, avoid washing your hair every day. If you have to, you can at least rinse it really good (without shampooing) then condition it...which is less damaging, but wont leave you feeling dirty.

If you use any type of heat styling, be sure that you use a heat protectant, like Nexxus Heat Protexx or Redken Heat Glide. Heat styling causes a LOT of damage, especially to hair that is already damaged.

Continue with the regular trims, which should prevent further damage, but if you can, maybe take off a little more than you would when you trim. All of the conditioners and protectants will make your hair texture feel better and healthier, but you can't really do a lot to actually fix the damage from color, so the main goal is to just keep your hair manageable and hold on decently to the healthiness it still has while you work to get rid of the colored, damaged parts.

Hopefully this will help some, and good luck!
