Shampoo and conditioner- loreal hyaluronic
Hair cream and gel - arata
I wash my hair every 2-3 days with shampoo and conditioner and then apply some cream and gel and scrunch it and pray to god lmao.
Hair type - low porosity, 3b curls
Products i use - plum coconut peptides shampoo > Pantene collagen conditioner > FMC moisturizing duo
Concern - extremely frizzy hair that doesn't absorb anything and product stays on top of the hair instead of absorbing.
Help me find both shampoo and conditioner for low porosity hair under 500 rs ( and no I can't increase my budget )
Pic 1,3,4 are day 3 of curls, and the 2nd pic is of day 2.
I suffer from sebopsoriasis on my scalpe, i use scalpe pro shampoo, reequil murumuru conditioner and moxie curl cream and moxie flax seed gel and to for day 2 and day 3 i use the angelica seed leave in conditioner from love beauty and planet and i emulsify it before using it. I also use satin pillow cover.
I have Low porosity 2B Frizzy Wavy Hair. Which of these products would work well for me? On a side note, which is better - curl creams or leave in conditioners? I don’t understand the difference tbh😭 please suggest!

Recipe for Homemade Oil:
Coconut oil(base), Cumin seeds(1tsp),Onions(finely chopped), Cloves(6-8pcs), Hibiscus flower, Fenugreek seeds(1tsp), Black Pepper seeds(few), Amla, Bringraj, Tulsi, Curry Leaves (Bunch), Aloe Vera, Kalonji (1tsp), Yashtimadhu
Cooking method: extremely low heat and boil for 30minutes. Keep it to cool overnight. Filter the next day preferably on a glass jar and use the residue to be blended into fine powder and then boiled in water to be used as a hair toner to be sprayed whenever you want.
Note: Straining boiled herbal residue for a liquid toner must be fresh and stored in the fridge for a maximum of 2–3 days, as water-based mixes spoil quickly.
Additionally you can add a few drops of castor or rosemary oil or any oil (6-8 drops) into the homemade oil.
If you can't make it you can also use Coconut oil as it is but it's too heavy on the hair. Better to use standalone argan oil.
Hit me up if you have any doubts, I'll try to clear it up!
(sorry if i used the wrong flair)
I have dry, wavy and frizzy 2b/2c hair that goes beyond my lower back and I HATE those stringy/crunchy waves :{ I never seem to get fluffy roots either, they stay pretty straight while the lengths are frizzy with some definition (but stringy). I SOTC with serum, but it still doesn’t give me the soft, fluffy waves I want.
Wavy hair girlies i’m begging you, I need a one-and-done product that gives moisture, definition AND frizz control without making my hair crunchy/stringy.
I dont wanna spend ₹3k on a whole new routine just to use it twice and abandon it :{ Please drop your actual holy grail recs, preferably affordable and available in India!!
I don’t follow the traditional curly hair routine for the last few months i have been trying to transition into it like avoiding dry brushing detangling with conditioner . my current routine is i wash my hair every 3 days with shampoo followed by requil anti frizz conditioner and then very little serum. I get VERY pretty curls effortlessly no brush styling no scrunching nothing and they look decent next few days but i feel like they are are knotty at some places and hard to detangle wet
de tangling is a sensory nightmare for me be it dry or wet but dry is somewhat manageable
I’m not sure for my general hair health i should follow this or not. anybody who has had similar experience?
