Hmmm...How about less products because you wash less? I wash my hair twice a week and use dry shampoo on the off days on my roots. My hair has gone from dry and brittle to gorgeous. Shiny. And it's CHEAP. Dry shampoo and quality regular shampoo are all I use. I wash and dry my hair every 3-4 days. And no, it doesn't smell bad. (I bathe everyday...not doing that COULD be smelly!!) :-)

My hair is over processed and I love the conditioning benefits of Olive Oil and honey. I am hesitant to trim every 6-8 weeks, because I am not one of those whose hair grows fast.

I have become obsessed in the last couple years about hair health after completely ruining my hair with heat, bleach, and not taking care of it. I follow most of these rules but I also uncorporate the vitamin biotin and hair repair pill viviscal into my routine and it has really helped. I recommend these to anyone who has really damaged hair.

I have always brushed my hair at least 100 times before i went to bed but, I didn't know it mattered what type of brush you used. Guess I will have to buy a Boar Bristled Brush! Also, the Pantene for Beautiful Lengths! Thanks!!!

The olive oil treament sounds good but, do you put it in dry,damp, or wet hair?

by brendalea Monday, April 2, 2012 at 05:03PM Report as inappropriate

I have waist long hair so I usually have it up a lot. Never thought to put a leave-in conditioner in it to protect it from the elastic! GREAT TIP!!

why is blonde hair so hard to get super shiney? I even bought this stuff called Happy Shine and it didnt really work! ARRRGH! LOL

I have always heard that if you want your favorite shampoo to work as good as it used to, don't use it for a week. And if I used cold water to wash out the conditioner my hair feels weighted down and dull.

had no idea that I should be using cold water to wash out my conditioner,great tip!

It's funny how some articles here keep saying it's not necessary to switch up the shampoo, etc, and how other claim it's a good thing. I personally like to switch up. Overall a great article that reminds ladies to be gentle to their hair.

The olive oil is so true! I swear by it.

by SummerOrchid Friday, March 30, 2012 at 03:14PM Report as inappropriate

The olive oil tip looks promising, might try it; and the Matrix Vavoom Heat Spray looks good too.

This article says hair does become immune to the same products but in another article about common myths, that was a false statement.. which is it?!

good advise

by Only1KimmieD Thursday, December 22, 2011 at 10:57AM Report as inappropriate

This is really good advice. I do the olive oil treatment once a week and it keeps my hair and scalp moisturized.

by SummerOrchid Saturday, December 10, 2011 at 11:35AM Report as inappropriate

I don't know if I could sleep with olive oil in my hair.

Olive oil is amazing for hair, and skin too. Miracle-worker :)

I pretty much do most of these things but I also comb conditioner through my hair in the shower with a wide tooth comb and I always use a leave in conditioner or I can't comb through it.

Lots of great tips! I use to use Matrix's Vavoom gold heat! I should get that again!

I wish there were printable versions of lists like this one; I'd love to be able to take it shopping with me!!!

I didn't know that I needed to deep condition weekly. Thanks for that info!

I sort of want to try putting olive oil in my hair, but sleeping with it overnight seems like a challenge... I usually wake up with the pillow on top of my head. Maybe I'll try sleeping in a shower cap.

Using a heat protector spray is really important! Do not fry your hair it just makes it more and more difficult to style.

Aussie is one of my favorites. I also like VO5 Heat Defense conditioning spray.

Why keep recommending products that are no longer available? Sunsilk Color Boost has been discontinued for over a year.
