Hair Care Product Favorites

I have very fickle, troublesome hair.  It is color-treated, oily at the roots, and dry at the ends.  It is fine, but I have lots of it, and it is naturally wavy.  I have tried dozens of hair care products over the years, and while my regimen is ever-evolving, this is my current holy grail of hair care products:

Redken Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner:  I used to be an All Soft freak until I tried these babies out.  I wait until the liters go on sale at Ulta, and it actually ends up being cheaper than drugstore shampoo.  This is the absolute best combination I have found.  The conditioner is thick enough to moisturize my dry ends, but not too thick to make my oily scalp oilier.  The smell is divine, and I definitely notice that my color doesn't fade.

 

Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Tri Wheat Conditioner:  HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THAT IS GOOD this is the greatest thing I have added to my hair care regimen since...EVER!!!!!!!!  It has literally transformed my parched ends and decreased the crazy amount of split ends that I used to struggle with.  I apply it sparingly to the hair near the nape of my neck and down right after my hair is towel dried and comb through.  BONUS: it also decreases the tugging and breaking that my wet hair used to do.

 

Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream:  This stuff is GREAT!  I apply it to just the ends of my hair before I blow dry, and it makes my usually frizzy, wavy hair glossy and super moisturized.  I also have very sensitive skin on my neck and back, and this product doesn't cause me to break out (I used to use BioSilk until I realized it was to blame for said issue).

L'Oreal Elnett Satin Hairspray:  While, I admit, I don't really care for the smell of this hairspray, this stuff is amazing.  The nozzle is a continuous spray with ZERO splatter, and the hold is incredible.  I will usually spritz a little perfume after I use my Elnett, and the smell isn't noticeable as my day/evening progresses.

 

Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo Spray:  I've tried several times of dry shampoo, including the Suave Keratin one, and this one is the BEST!  Also, with a price tag of less that $4, you can't go wrong.  This stuff sops up oil on my scalp while freshening it with a great, fresh scent.  It also adds tons of volume to my normally limp locks.

 

I have a few other products that I use that aren't worthy of a 'favorite hair care product' title...still searching for a few favorite products.
