HELP how can i make my chemically damaged hair softer and healthier??? : ( ?

cut off as much as you can bear to lose (seriously, it does help - i had to lose 6 inches, but my hair has dramatically improved for it) and drown it in conditioner frequently. My hair has been bleached, darkened, bleached, dyed pink, bleached, dyed blue, darkened, bleached etc etc for so many years - I now try to at least once a week wash my hair, put in tonnes of conditioner and wrap it in a towel for 30 minutes - twice a week if i can. i swear by the John Frieda Brilliant Brunette range - its worked wonders! Especially their intensive conditioner! And you get out the shower smelling like chocolate and coconut.

Also where possible, try to cut down on blow drying and straightening/curling your hair - leave the towel on for a bit longer to absorb more water, let your hair get a bit of fresh air for 5-10 mins until it's damp and then dry. Blow drying from wet will damade your hair more, as you have to use more heat.

pureology is the best stuff ever! I straighten my hair everyday, and it keeps it soft, and makes me want to run my fingers through my hair all the time!

The best thing you can probably do is go and see your hairdresser for a henna wax treatment or a hot oil treatment. both these are deep conditioning treatments and i would recommend to get them quit regularly o help get your hair back into shape and in future just use a semi permanent colour as they don't damage the hair as much.

Go to Target and buy some Dove Damaged Hair Therapy Shampoo, and some Rusk Calm Conditioner. Wash it with both every night for about 5 days, then use it every other day. My hair was destroyed from straightening it daily for the past 2 years, but this stuff made it feel much better. You have to cut off the split ends though, as once they're split, nothing can help them but cutting them.

Try FRUCTIS conditioner, or TRESEMME. My hair was like straw, after dyeing it so often, but is better now (it took a couple of weeks of using the conditioner every day)

i've stopped using tongs and straighteners, and that's helped too.

dont listen to those nobs who tell you to cutt it off.

to start with buy a lavender ASG'S treatment cream use this like you would a shampoo and wash out. After use a lavender LSG'S treatment wich is like a conditioner.

leave this is your hair untill it dries this will restore all yur natural moisture and nutrients in your hair. then wash out when dry

Then use a leave in hyperdefonter. this will HELP to prevent extreme split ends, further damage.

use this when blow drying, straightning, curling ect.

also do not take the advice of some of the other comments "wash your hair every day for 5 days"

if you do wash your hair every day even if its for a week, the mosre you wash your hair the mroe you will need to.

your hair will become more greasy and then dry out leaving flakey scalps.

once every 2 days is the best way.
