deep conditioner

Hi Everyone, me again... i went to the hair dresser on sunday (whimper) and had to have an inch taken off in the front because it was so damaged from camp... the back only needed a 1/4" trim though. My hairdresser Dana told me that my hair was very seriously dry and needed to be repaired (I want to get a wave put in). Any sugestion for a good deep conditioner and how to use it?

I`m very impressed with L`Oreal`s Mega Moisture. It really does a terrific conditioning job in just 5 minutes (the shampoo is quite good too but I don`t recommend it for every day use). I also use L`Oreal`s Mermade conditioner and have always gotten very good results with it (leave it on for 20 minutes). I got very nice results using Cholersterol with a heat cap but find these products work quite well without one. I get them at Sally`s. Hope this helps. Good luck! ;)

I assume a wave is a permanent. Do NOT do it! If your hair is already "Very seriously dry" this will only make it worse. Then you`ll just end up having to cut more off to get rid of the damage.

I like the Alberto V05 total Hair recovery, I just tried a day or so ago, and it made my hair really soft and repaired all the split ends.:D

Its not possible. They are still split. Those products just hold them together like a glue to keep them from splittling more.

As someone above pointed out, you can`t repair split ends--ever. The same goes for your hair in general. If you`ve processed your hair--either for texture or color--the damage is permanent and NO amount of deep conditioner or "reconstructor" will change that. Hair is dead, and without cell turnover your hair cannot become healthy again. The new growth will be fine, of course, but the damaged part will be like that until you cut it off, it`s as simple as that. You can, however, use good emollient conditioners to coat the hair shaft, masking damage and making your hair look/feel better. Although the effect is merely cosmetic and superficial, it can make your hair at least appear healthy.

A couple of REALLY good conditioners I absolutely love: Biotera reconstructor, Aura Almond Cherry Bark revitalizing conditioner and got2b in therapy. All are reasonably priced and make my hair shiny and healthy-looking, even though the last 3-4 inches of my hair are damaged and dry. Hope this helps.
