Hi, I am a caucasian female with thick light brown mid-back length hair, that is naturally wavy. I looking to change hair care products.
I am currently using: Pantene Pro-V Classically Clean Shampoo
Pantene Pro-V Constant Care Conditioner
Pantene Pro-V Detangle Light Spray Conditioner
Ok, this is my hair care routine, I start by using the shampoo, then I use the conditioner only on ends of my hair, about the last four inches. Sometimes I will lightly condition all my hair. I detangle with my fingers before rinsing the conditioner out. I was combing with a wide tooth comb before rinsing the conditioner out, but I stopped doing that, a couple of days ago cause it pulled the hair too much. When I completely done in the shower I lightly rink the water out of my hair with my hands. I was blotting the water out with a towel, stopped doing that a couple a days also. Then use the detangle light spray conditioner, then comb my hair out with the wide tooth comb. Then I wrap my hair in a towel. I usually wash my hair every day, cause it tends to get oily on the second day, and sometime every other day.
What I have done to my hair in the last six months. I have never colored or permed my hair, and don`t plan to. I usually let my hair air dry, takes about three hours. When I do blow dry my it takes me fifteen to twenty minutes. Last week I used the hairdryer for the first time since last spring, cause it was nippy outside. On 9/28/2001 I tried Pantene Curl Defining Scrunching Gel see thread: http://talk.hairboutique.com/forum/viewthread.asp?forum=AMB_AP804060353&subject=Pantene+Curl+Defining+Scrunching+Gel&id=2747 .
Ok, why I want to change products. I was using True confidence anti-dandruff shampoo until march, of this year. I then switched to classically clean shampoo, because my scalp was irritated, score, and itchy. Now the Classically Clean Shampoo, seems to be not work that well anymore. My scalp is a little irritated, score, and itchy, also my hair seems to be dry.
I have very thick, wavy coarse hair and I love Nexxus products. I use their shampoo, conditioner and deep conditioner. Every night I use Aveda Beautification Composition Oil on the ends on my hair. My hair is almost waist length and has never looked better since starting with these products last spring. hth

Dancer - with what you said about your scalp - have you tried the Nioxin line.
I think it is great and NO I don`t have thinning hair - if you read the ingredients of their shampoo and scalp and hair therapy you will notice that they are comparable to most botanical lines, like ARTec, Aveda.
I alternate Nioxin with whatever suits my fancy at the time, but it is my basic. I actually leave the Scalp and Hair Therapy on anywhere from 3 minutes to 1/2 hour...gabi
