I have a very similar problem, i use head and shoulders shampoo and Aussie conditioner which seems to work well for me. Apparently Aussie shampoos/conditioners are good for coloured hair (according to my hairdresser) if you buy supermarket stuff instead of their expensive salon stuff!! (which i do)
Sorry to hear about the boil

MrsDoylesBoyle · 17/02/2009 22:44

Ok right i shall try the Aussie shampoo then.

I use Burt's Bees shampoo and Aussie conditioner. I have dry, coloured hair and a sensitive scalp and I wash it every day but it doesn't seem to strip the colour at all.

Sorry (and horrified) to hear about your boil.

My hairdresser told me that, no matter what your hair tyoe, if you dye your hair, you should use a product for coloured hair.

bellavita · 17/02/2009 22:57

hazeyjane - same here.

I use Tresemme shampoo and conditioner for coloured hair.

I have hair like yours and the best I have used is redken all soft. I am on a budget so am using aussie shampoo which is not as good but good for a high street option.

MrsDoylesBoyle · 17/02/2009 23:35

Will add to the list to try thanks twinset.Will try the Aussie first i think though.

Redken all soft is nice, but I found that it really built up on my hair and that I needed to use a build up remover once every 10 days or so. Not to mention that it's quite pricey. If you do want to give it a go then google it, used to find it was cheaper to buy it online from the US and have a sent over rather than pay salon price here.
I have a tendency to slightly flaky scalp and greasiness, I use John Frieda brilliant brunette a lot which I love or the Elvive (sp?) that comes in the pink bottle - can't remember the exact name sorry!
