Hello! I’m in need of a new hair routine, my routine right now is using Aussies mousse, cantu leave in conditioner, Not your mothers gel, as for shampoo and conditioner I recently switched to Not your mothers, a lot of people say don't use heavy products but i've tried light ones and they don't help me instead it falls even more flatter for some reason. And so I switched to using cantu their damage repair leave in conditioner and it helped my hair a lot, and is what started making my hair twist around together which it didn't use to do, (i've been dry brushing my hair for more than a decade but always realized it was frizzy) but my hair still falls flat and I use not your mothers gel the number 5 the freeze one and it's definitely helped though, but I must be doing something wrong, I just feel like people still say my hair is just straight especially because my hair is very soft and silky and I've never done my hair just always brushed it straight, and sometimes it looks like a mess doing the routine especially if I do it upside down it's usually better not doing it that way but also it depends, it kinda just falls from the top, please help! My mother has 2c hair but she doesn't do her hair so I never learned from anyone and my grandpa also had 2c mixed with 3a hair. Also need advice on what hair type I have? It seems like 2a maybe?

You can criticize with advices if you want i also need a good routine

I'm currently using African pride leave in cream and letting it air dry but it doesn't always give me a good result

Guys my hair feels dry all the time and frizzy with random defined parts. Help!

Routine:
Donna’s recipe shampoo and conditioner, brushing hair while wet thru it; letting it air dry. I wash my hair like once every 2 weeks maybe once a week if lucky.

I put my hair in a bun and put a bunch of clips in my hair at night with a bonnet on.

Its been 3 1/2 weeks since my first cut and there’s still no progress. I wash and style every 2 weeks. And use hard medium and softy with plastic bag and durag every night i need advice! Am i doing anything wrong?

I am 18M

For most of my life , only had short hairstyles but after growing up out my hair for a bit, I have learned that it is either wavy or curly, I have asked many people about this and they have different opinions.Some say that it is curly while others say that it is waving.So I am going to need your help in deciding what type of hair do I have

I only oil my hair and wash it.I don't use any product on my hair other than oil

It would be helpful if you could recommend me some hair products which are best for frizzy hair and for volume

I need some curling products as well

I only air dry my hair after using the towel

I have wavy, dry, frizzy hair with high porosity. When my hair air-dries, the waves are well-defined (still frizzy), but as soon as I comb it, the waves disappear. If I don’t use conditioner, my hair becomes very dry, poofy, fluffy, and frizzy.

Currently, I use Moxie Beauty shampoo and L’Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair conditioner. I like the conditioner because it makes my hair soft, but it doesn’t help much with frizz control.

Could you please suggest products or a hair care routine that can help minimise frizz while keeping my waves defined?

Also, what do you think about the Fix My Curls protein hair care routine for my hair type?

I have low porosity hair with protein sensitivity, and I avoid using hair products that have protein. I’ve been following CG for close to a decade now.

In recent years, my hair hasn't been working well because it had a lot of buildup, and it took me a long time to understand my hair’s needs. It became protein-sensitive, and the scalp was itchy and produced more oil because of sulphate-free products.

I got to know about the proper clarifying shampoos recommended by the dermatologist as I was struggling with the sulphate-free clarifying shampoos (it wasn’t lathering or cleaning my scalp at all).

I use Ketafung-CT once a week followed by Camille Rose conditioning custard. Or Giovanni tea tree shampoo followed by Camille Rose. I occasionally use Herbal Essences Argan Oil Conditioner and it does not have a great slip but works okay.

I also use the Aveda hair mask (Green one) and the result is good, but I find the masks are thick and do not have great slip.

My problem - my hair gets tangled after the shampoo, and it’s extremely hard to detangle it with the conditioner. It works okay with the Camille rose, but I have a lot of shedding in the process. Mask is another story.

I live next to the beach with high humidity (like 1 km from the beach). The water is not that great either. I find that the shedding is comparatively less at my parents’ home as the water is much better there. The scalp does not clean well at my home and detangling gets hard, hair turns frizzy, and sheds crazily.

Can someone help me with the right detangling conditioner? I can live with the frizz and I’m past the seven-step process of shampoo, conditioner, leave-in, cream, gel, etc., I’ve lived a better life with those steps and I’m getting into a new era of simple hair routine with just a shampoo, conditioner, and an occasional mask or a mousse day.

Hair type- 2B,2C
I need help choosing new hair products; currently using manetain curl cream and volume gel. I use moxie shampoo and use manetain multipurpose conditioner (I really like both so doesn’t seem to be an issue).

I think I have medium porosity hair; it’s also very dense. I do brush styling too. I’m struggling to decide what products to use, as the manetain ones feel heavy and don’t give me much definition these days. Thoughts?
