A 2 in 1 or 3 in 1 for a beach holiday?

I always use a shampoo and then a conditioner, but this is a total pain on holiday and wondered if there were any alternatives? My hair is curly, prone to be a bit frizzy, fairly long, fine, but there is lots of it. I have to wash it every evening on holiday because of the salt water and chlorine, but usually its every other day or every three days! So hit me with what you use on holiday please!

Oh, and my hair is dyed but no bleach.

Why is it a pain? I either take them well wrapped up in the suitcase or decanted or I just buy at Boots in the airport. I don't bring them back.

Because it takes too long, and I'm not a pamperer (not a word I know). I just wanted it to be quicker!

To save time, you could rinse your hair when you get out of the sea / pool, slather on the conditioner then just tie your hair back / bung on a hat until you get back home. That way, you’ve done half the routine and just need to wash with shampoo (or maybe just rinse out the conditioner for a ‘co-wash’ if your hair type suits it)

I often do this as it helps give me beachy waves and means my hair is soft rather than frazzled.

You could also look at a leave-in conditioner that works like a hair protector. Not sure of any specific products to recommend, but I bet they are out there if you search!
