damaged hair


Question Posted Friday June 22 2007, 1:56 pm

okay well i straighten my hair a lot, there's no other choice. i use a heat protecting spray but my hair still gets damaged. what's some good shampoo & conditioner that will 'restore' my hair? yesterday i just bought Suave Humectant and i didn't use it yet and it says it restores dry/damaged hair and gives moisture if this helps at all.

I read in a book about an ingredient in some shampoos and conditioners that is really important to look for.

It was called panthenol. It is suppose to be the B5 pro-vitamin and helps to strengthen the hair by filling in damaged areas, leading to less breakage and a smoother feel. It is suppose to help retain moisture (helping to keep it shiney) and thicken hair strands as well. Look for hair products containing this.

In addition, the book I was reading suggested finding a leave-in conditioner that had panthenol in it (some are even labeled on the front of the bottle) to help repair the hair follicles. The book claimed that this was the best method to repairing damaged hair and, if used properly for an extended period of time, would eventually "heal" the hair completely.

i had the same problem. i have really curly hair and it was always damaged from straightening it.

i found this hair mask from sleek look that you put on your hair for five minutes and wash it out. it really works. you can buy it at cvs, its called sleek look and it comes in an orange container.

it also really helps if before you srtaigten it, you dry it as straight as possible with a round brush with cold air. and try to be really gentle with it when you brush it and straighten it.

I straighten my hair everyday, and dye it every two months. I put Infusium 23 on my hair after baths and before I striaghten it. It's stuff you leave in your hair. It works as hair spray, but it still works in humidity. It also makes your hair healthier.

pantene has a restorative cream...its a bit expensive but it takes loads of damage off of your hair..I believe its a weekly treatment...from what I've heard it works great
