Recommend something to make my hair youthful

I'm mid 40s with shoulder length hair that I home dye every 4 weeks and get cut every 3 months. My hair is quite thick and straight but a bit dull, dry and frizzy at the ends. I've used Aussie serum for coloured hair for few years and I feel that it isn't working any longer so could do with recommendations for a hair product which will make my hair a bit less "middle-aged". I used SLS and silicone free shampoos as I get eczma.

Bumble and Bumble overnight hair mask is amazing

Leaves my hair soft and shiny and lasts for days

Olaplex treatment, really made a difference to my hair not sure if it’s SLS free though I had it done in May & my hair is still very swishy & easier to manage.

Second Olaplex and also Kerstase cocoa butter deep conditioner - not cheap though. I have wild hair and it helped a lot.

I have very dry hair thanks to a combo of being mid-40's and hypothyroid. I have been using Kiehl's for a couple of weeks and it has made a massive difference to my hair. I 've used this one as I have fine hair but they also have an Olive Oil version for thicker hair.

Aveda is another good natural brand you could take a look at. Personally, I find the Kerastase ranges are too harsh on my hair now (and make my eyes & skin itch) even though I have previously used them for several years.

Stop dying it and start getting it cut more regularly. Grey hair in a good cut will be in better condition and softer and shinier than longer dyed hair and therefore will look younger.

I was thinking the same as Countfosco, stop colouring it. I'm considering stopping colouring mine cos it just doesn't look any better for it any more.
