1. A protein conditioner, which will strengthen weak hair. 2. If the problem is caused by dry brittle hair, it is necessary to replenish the hair with extreme moisture and seal it with a hot oil treatment. If you treat dry hair with protein, it could actually cause more severe breakage since protein is designed to tighten the hair strand. Dry hair already lacks elasticity and does not need to be tightened more. Moisture on the other hand is designed to add elasticity to the hair strand, so it will stretch and return to its natural position when it is combed or brushed. Oil coats and seals adding a high gloss to hair. It is generally not recommended to apply protein but once within a six-week period. There are a number of products on the market that help strengthen the hair (including vitamins). What products are you using now? A good home remedy to add shine and strengthen your hair is honey and olive oil - ½ cup honey + ¼ cup olive oil. Work into the hair with your fingertips. Cover with a shower cap and leave on for 30 minutes. Remove the cap and shampoo and rinse (may take more than one shampoo). Good luck!!
