My hair is wavy but yes it is naturally frizzy, and easily get tangled. I’ve tried numerous shampoos and conditioners to find one that works for me. I am currently using L’Oréal Elvive and I love the scent. The conditioner really works for my hair if I use a comb in the shower with it. With the shampoo, I have noticed it makes my hair feel greasy in a way? And it definitely helped reduced damaged and breakage, but I still lose a lot of hair.. mind you I have thick hair lol. I don’t mind sticking with the conditioner since it works for me, but what shampoo would you recommend? Preferably affordable like under $30-$40 per bottle, and if I can get in store (but can get online). I would love to have silky smooth texture and non frizzy hair.
Other brands I’ve tried and didn’t work for me: • sauve • dove • head and shoulders • TRE Semmé • Herbal Essence • Aussie • Garnier Fructis • Pantene (I think)

** note: due to my hair texture and its frizziness I don’t normally brush my hair after I shower, and I don’t use a towel to dry it off, I use a microfiber towel and that definitely helps reduce the frizz.
What’s the best affordable shampoo/conditioner for long frizzy, oily, damaged hair?
First, when my hair looked like yours, I used Nexxus. Not cheap, but that's the good stuff.
However, you need a detangler. More than shampoo and conditioner, the detangler is the most important purchase.
For that, you go with Lustrasilk Cholesterol. I always went with the Aloe Vera. I bought it so often that I was practically on a first-name basis with Sally's Beauty Supply down the street.
LeKair also has a Cholesterol detangler and that was my Plan B if they were out of Lustrasilk.
If I could have bought the "salon size", I would have. Sadly, at Sally's, you had to have a hairdresser license to buy that size.
If my memory is correct (I haven't needed cholesterol in about 20 years), with your hair, you'll probably go through a 20-oz Lustrasilk tub in about 2-4 weeks.
Mix ½ cube of yeast with warm water, warm milk, or natural yogurt to obtain the consistency of a thick hair mask. Add a tablespoon of honey, aloe vera gel, or homemade flaxseed gel. You can apply this prepared mask both to the scalp and hair.
Keep the yeast mask on your hair and scalp for 30-60 minutes, then rinse with water.
It could smell better but makes miracles with frizzy and damaged hair
You might have to grow out the damaged hair and slowly cut it off over time, until your left with healthy hair only. Is the damage because of the color?
He look gorgeous, The way your hair looks, makes you look way hotter. You like a baywatch babe, who is up for a good time haha. Sorry I can't help with hair problem. But you look fanastic.
I would just recommend, if you have the money, get yourself down to a decent salon or hairdressers., and get it sorted.
It's not pristine shampoo cover girl, but you're still rocking that girl-next-door look.
I have a similar issue with shampoo and none has made a difference, but what has is using just a tiny bit of coconut oil after I wash my hair and it's half-dry.
As someone who also likes playing with her hair a lot with colors and such.. I damaged my hair too. My stylist recommend coconut oil (sit on it for 20-40 min, wash it, and then shampoo your hair) and it does work if you are consistent over a month+ Hope this helps! Your hair is still cute by the way.
@Lisia this girl might use your help, since i know that you take good care of your looks, hair and hygiene, to me her hair looks messy and unhealthy...
@Lisia she is unhappy about it, have you read how many products she have used? Also she mentioned that she's using lots of her hair... If there any product left to be used? 🤣
@Lisia well if they are giving you some good results than you ain't wasting your money for nothing, but when you buy all these products for nothing than you're losing a lot...
One more thing, her hair needs to be cut, look at the end of her hair, it's quite damaged!
@Maxiebleu try K18 it seems that it works wonders on hair, also @Lisia is a good proof for it's results since she's saying that it's her best friend...
@Lisia i think that the K18 company should give me some cash for promoting their products, don't worry miss victoria lisia, i'll give you your share of the commercial benefits 👌🏻😁
This mini convo is great haha yes I’ll have to look it up and try it if it’s not expensive. The picture I uploaded was what it looked like earlier this year, but I still have similar issues. And yes I need a hair trim but I also don’t want to pay $80 for haircut 🥲
I love your long hair! I don’t have any real answers to your question I just wanted to let you know how gorgeous you are and you make the scrubs look good 😊
You need to begin repairing your long hair. It needs some assistance. Loreal products at first (yes, expensive a bit but you need to begin repairing it). If you color treat your hair, you need something like Loreal to keep it nice and lovely. many to choose from. After, Try Salon Selectives. They are much cheaper and also very good for your hair. x
I think u look beautiful in that pic I wouldn't change a thing to me the little messy hair style is attractive to me and the girl who can rock the I just had hot kinky monkey sex hair well all I can say mmm mmm yae yae 😆
My hair is more oily and curly than yours and I will warn you, brushing makes it frizzy. Try just running your fingers through your hair in the shower to get out knots and not brushing or blow drying afterwards. Give it a couple of hours to dry and check your results.
I have long thick wavy hair that blows up in humidity. Lately I've been using Dr Bronner sugar soap and after my shower use a Dr Bronner leave in conditioner. Hair stills falls out, but not as bad as some of the other shampoos I've tried.
I have but they always try to sell me their in salon hair products that are like over $50 per bottle and I just don’t have that extra kind of money laying around to pay for it every few months.
