If using a conditioner on a regular basis weighs your hair down what's a solution?

Answer 1

First of all, the reasons why your hair may seem weighed down are: � You are using the product too often � The molecular weight of the product is too high. High molecular weighted products can coat the hair and cause over protection � You may be using the improper type of "conditioner". Conditioners generally fall into 4 categories: 1. Reconstructors- make the hair stronger 2. Rinses and Acidifiers- close the cuticle and seal the hair 3. Moisturizers- balance the moisture content in the cortex of the hair 4. Thermal protectors - prevent heat damage before it starts ? You may be using too much of the product

Generally, polymeric products have high molecular weights. Look for products which contain hydrolyzed human hair keratin protein. Products with hydrolyzed human keratin protein generally are best because the products generally have low molecular weights. This provides for a superior product that does not weigh the hair down.

Change conditioner. It is probably building up on your hair and if that's not the case it is too heavy for your hair. - In either case the solution is a change of product. You most likely have fine, thin hair that is very easy to over-condition, so you must be careful of this.

The best conditioner would be one that is for 'fine, limp hair' and is a 'light conditioner'. Also, 'extra body' conditioners will work well. DON'T think that you have to buy an expensive conditioner for it to work - this is completely the wrong attitude and generally not the case. Most light conditioners are actually very cheap, and lines such as VO5, Suave and White Rain all have great light conditioners for next to nothing! Finally, make sure you are not using too much product (if any) and that you are washing both shampoo and conditioner out properly.

ANSWER

I'd recommend buying a professional shampoo and conditioner from a salon. Most of the hair products you can buy at grocery stores have a waxy coating that will build up on your hair and weigh it down. A product I would recommend, as a stylist, is the Kenra platinum line's shampoo for fine/thing hair. It has a normal shampoo and then the conditioner is a really lightweight spray leave in that won't weigh your hair down at all.

ANSWER:

A shampoo or conditioner can never be the reason for hair loss or hair damage, it always the wrong selection of shampoo or may be the environment in which we are leaving. Selection of right shampoo and conditioner play a great role to make hair healty and growing.

Nizoral shampoo and Viviscal conditioners are two best solutions for all type of hair problem and scalp problems. Nizoral shampoo works on our Dry, flaky, red, itchy scalp to make it more healthy and Viviscal conditioner works to make our hair smooth. Viviscal conditioner also helps in providing strength to weak hair and regrowing of new hairs.

ANSWER: I had the same problem. My solution was to use a 'Cleansing Shampoo'. I actually found a really good one from The Body Shop. I use it about once a week, with no conditioner, to get rid of the product residue build up from hair sprays and conditioning treatments etc. I found my hair was a lot lighter in weight and felt it dried faster because there was less product build up. I highly recommend it, but use it only once a week or so, great for after a night partying with second hand smoke etc.
