Menopausal hair - product recommendations

3 replies

Hi, I’m getting married soon and need to cheer up my lank limp dull menopausal hair. Oily roots, dry fuzzy ends. Have used Pantene Moroccan oil for years to take away the frizz but it’s weighing it down. Use Body Shop ginger shampoo for my sensitive scalp. Can’t hold a curl for toffee!
I can treat myself a bit, but can’t afford to waste money so would really welcome any recommendations for shampoo, conditioner, masks, frizz serum type product and heat protecting sprays. I eat well, take collagen and drink lots of water. Thank so much for any advice, started googling and am now overwhelmed with adverts!

I was recommended this shampoo Kerastase Specifique Shampoo, 250 ml https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01GQKMQF4?ref=ppxpoppmobappshare and this as a conditioner Kérastase Nutritive, Rich Deep... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BZZK86T3?ref=ppxpoppmobappshare by a trichologist and it's the best my hair has been (I've tried lots of other even more pricey things like Champu and none of them worked for me).
I was also advised to wash my hair daily, which I was dubious about. But that has also helped. Hope this helps!

Aveda rosemary shampoo and conditioner for the grease. Then a protein mask like redken just on the lengths. A product like colour wow dreamcoat gives a lovely gloss (but their shampoo etc made my scalp sore and spotty). Living Proof 5 in one feels " healthier" and adds volume, shine etc etc all in one. These things have made me like me hair again as it's thick, swishy and shiny ( now).

Thanks for these replies, I really appreciate it and will look all these up. I’d love a long swishy mane… not the current sticky up haystack look 😂
