Curlies - what silicone-free products do you use?

I used to have the springiest, craziest ringlets and I loved my hair. But post baby it seems to have relaxed out into lacklustre waves. Gah!

Have been using Boots 'naked bounce' shampoo & conditioner since they don't contain sulphates or silicones. But the results aren't great. Can anyone recommend anything else? Cheapish please, am on the skint bit of maternity leave!

Also, what about a silicone-free styling product, to add shine/definition to curls when dry?

Thanks! Smile

I use Boots' rip-off of Herbal Essences, think it's called Fruit Essences. Only the green one (tea and orange, I think) though because the rest have cones. Not the best thing stuff in the world but at 99p, I'm not complaining!

There's one called Happy Hair Days which i prefer to the Naked range, it lathers up much better and actually feels like its cleaning your hair. Other than that I make sure I vary which conditioner I use instead of always using the same one and very occasionally I give it a wash with a regular 'cone shampoo otherwise my scalp gets reeeeally itchy.

I'm still working my way through cheaper options than Umberto Giannini (which I love but is too expensive), I haven't found anything that is as good but I definitely would not recommend Herbal Essences Tousle Me Softly. It smells nice but my hair is too soft and my curls are non-existent.

Agree silentsinger It should be called Tousle Me Imperceptibly Grin

May try Happy Hair Days heymammy - from Boots too?
