Super swishy shiny har? Shampoo and conditioner recs

8 replies

ForSaleChesterDraws · 29/05/2021 15:45

I have quite coarse hair, just past shoulder length that I use straighteners on and need a new shampoo and conditioner for. I find that most shampoos for dry/ damaged hair leave it feeling gunky and coated. I know my hair hates coconut oil, shea butter etc. I want something that is light weight and hydrating rather than moisturising, if that makes sense.

Can anybody recommend anything? I've been looking at Olaplex shampoo and conditioner but worry its only good for highlighted hair (mine is natural) so not worth the extra?

Conditioner, Tresemmé botanique hemp. I use a solid shampoo.

The dark green Shu Umera one is amazing but very expensive.

Don’t bother with L’Oréal wonder water, I was expecting hair like silk (personal recommendation and back of packaging!) it smells nice enough and is quite soft but nowhere near as shiny as I expected. Waste of £10 IMO.

I don't mind the wonder water- definitely not moisturising for every wash but still enough to give a good shine.

Ogx coconut one for cheap or Aveda possibly Shampure one for luxury.

I've just started with Olaplex 3 and 6 (not the shampoo though , I use Aveda and the Olaplex reviews aren't great)

Cold final rinse for shine . Cold as you can bear Works wonders Grin

If you have coarse hair and use straighteners you should consider doing a Keratin treatment.
