my natural hair is- dirty blonde/light brown and straight.
but i started to straighten my hair everyday and then it became very dry and brittle. then i didn't like my color so i died it a medium/dark brown.
right now my hair is- medium length (shoulder length), medium/dark brown, and it is really frizzy and dry and damaged and it has some kinks in it. also, its thin/medium thin.
I need a hair design line that fits these
for
-very dry/damaged hair
-safe for colored hair (wont fade the color)
-soft/smooth/shiny
-will make my hair turn back into straight and not kinky.
-leave in/deep conditioner
that's about it.
right now i'm thinking about these lines
-aussie
-pantene pro-v
-design-line
-sunsilk
can anyone give me good reccommendations or opinions about those lines or any other lines?

Smartone answered Wednesday November 11 2009, 9:45 pm: One product will help your situation. It's called Aveda Brilliant Emollient Finishing Gloss. Use it lightly. A little goes a very long way! It's about $30.
That said, this product, and any other, will only give the appearance of healthy hair. Your hair needs to grow out before it will ever be truly healthy. The only way to get rid of the damage is to cut it off, unfortunately. Once you do, your hair will be restored to it's previous condition and then you will know not to use those harsh chemicals on it again. [ Smartone's advice column | Ask Smartone A Question ]

A relative of mine is quite fond of ordering large amounts of random Melaleuca products for everyday uses like facial cleansers, soaps, toothpastes, mouthwashes, detergents, etc. Anyway.. There is a certain unlikable taste that comes along with it. But........ I've noticed the melaleuca conditioner to be AMAZING when it comes to repairing damaged hair. I want you to try it for a week, then let me know if you didn't see a drastic change in your hair. : ) It'll open you up to a lot more styles. Good luck.
