Shampoo and Conditioner for very dry hair

7 replies

Looking for recommendations for shampoo and conditioner for very dry, straw like hair. Hair is not coloured or treated.

I want to avoid overly scented products especially fruity or nutty scents.

Currently using Dove.

I used Coco and Eve pro bond repair and it made such a difference. My hair was like straw, really dry and breaking off. It does have a coconut scent though. They do another hydrating range called “Like a virgin” which doesn’t have a strong scent.

I use Champo which really makes a difference. You can get money off if you have blue light, too.

I always used salon shampoos. L'Oréal was my favourite. My hairdresser prefers redken! 🤣.

I also used moisturising treatments at various times. I liked the ones from Kiehls.

My hair is less difficult now. I still use L'Oréal but just the elvive you buy in Boots. Or sometimes i use the Aussie 3 minute miracle stuff as a treatment.

Oh, and leave in conditioner treatments. At my worst, I had one from Innolux which really helped.my hair get bavk on track. I jave also used the morrocan oil one and more recently a redken one..

Morrocanoil products, shampoo, conditioner, leave in and the light oil. Amazing. There's a quiz thing on their website that asks questions about your hair to recommend a product range, my hair is thick, coarse and curly so very prone to frizz and this has made it soft and shiny

Thanks all. Several to consider.

My hair is very fine too.

Philip Kingsley. Available to buy in M&S.
get the elasticizer and use it weekly - it’s a hair treatment.
they have lots of shampoo and conditioner options and you can buy travel sizes to try a few:
not as cheap as dove but worth it
