Shampoo & conditioner for curly frizzy hair - advice pleeeaassee

182 replies

I'm beginning to look like crazy hair woman.

I have long curly (aka frizzy) hair that if I don't find a remedy for soon will all be chopped off (I might do it tonight with a pair of kitchen scissors such is my desperate need)

I have thrown money at this particular problem, and already tried:

Phillip Kingsley - useless; Redken - makes my head itch; John Frieda - horrible; Waitrose organic - useless.

One of you lovely groomed MN stylistas must be able to help? Or am I getting too old for long hair anyway (I think I know what the response will be here..)

TIA

hoxt please get it, looks wonderful and you can report back. i was disappointed with bumble and bumble, not moisturising enough.

moodlum we are meant to only comb under running water and not even wrap into turban. pat and blot....

anyway since last posting here i have dyed my hair, gone for a run and done a load of gardening and it has become absolutely enormous, sort of crystal tips. usually it is rather stringy. perhaps i should backcomb in future?
