Click on my signature, then Medusa's Lair. If you go into Cleansing Methods in the left hand menu, it will go into detail about cold rinses. This might help you.
The other possibility is that your hair has accumulated a lot of product buildup. Try a vinegar rinse: 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar in 2 cups water. Pour this through your hair after shampooing. Be sure not to get it in your eyes! Then rinse cold and condition your hair as usual. Vinegar will remove product residue that makes hair look dull or lifeless.
hmm indian and african mixed. exotic . wavy frizzy curly hair wont be shiny as str8 hair coz these type of hair absorb light instead of reflecting it like str8 hair.

You hair will have a sheen, it will not have a shine. From the information on your texture i would suggest try conditioning washes, use the plopp method to help reduce frizz, sheen is like a shoe made of leather, shine is like a shoe made with patent leather, 2 different things but it's like that for a reason.I'll get back to u on explaining the plopping method.
i just got a new hair cut and my hair lukz gr8! layered at the bak but i didnt loze much length - itz just blow the inbetween bit on ma bak - and layered from below chin length! reali kewl but i cant show the cut coz i ahevnt got a camera thingi or a scana...
aniwayz, ma hair iznt THAT frizzi ani more but ill try the "plop" method when u get back 2 me and ill uze a kinda detox shampoo coz am kinda wary of uzin the vinigar, i jus realized that i had A LOAD of build up on ma hair bcoz i dont wash the conditioner out proparli sutmz coz ma mumz screamin at me 2 get out of the bathroom.. i take agez in there!
PS: il try a serum lata - the guy at the salon - whuz asian so noz about cuttin asian hair- put his waz in ma hair but dat didnt do much so am gona uze a serum!
I LUV MA HAIR!!!!

"detox shampoo"? Did you mean Clarifying Shampoo? Actually, the vinegar rinse is less damaging than clarifying shampoo. I stick with the rinse always (1/2 cup vinegar + 2 cups water)
(And stopped using shampoo for that matter, conditioners only). I would only use the clarifying shampoo if you didn't like the smell of vinegar.
