My hair is thick-ish, straight, a bit course in texture (could be pre-menopausal). I colour it, blow dry it and sometimes straighten it. I've had it trimmed but it still doesn't shine anymore like it use to! Just looks a bit dry. I use Herbal Essences shampoo for coloured hair and Aussie colour matt miracle conditioner. I use a heat protection serum before blow drying and a heat protection spray if i use straightening.
Is there a product and or routine that can transform my hair? make it look like hair at least! I did try the coconut thing a couple of years ago but i didn't or rather my hair didn't get on with it. I can't afford £££ so anything purse friendly from Boots or Superdrug would be ideal. I also think my brush (which i use for clow drying) isn't the best, its a large barrel type one but the spikes are very 'sharp' and hard, almost torture like! Am i right in thinking i need a softer one?
