r/finehair

Hi all! I started using the k18 mask about a year ago for breakage and it's really transformed my hair! Since the product is used on clean hair with no conditioner after shampooing- I've started to like how my hair performs with just shampoo and a leave in conditioner out of the shower. (Currently either it's a 10 or Pureology)

What I'm looking for is a product that would be more of a cream leave in product vs a spray but is still lightweight enough to not weigh down my hair.
Mostly looking for detangling, softening- moisture is less of a concern for the summer for me. (But o realize that what most leave in will do)

Was thinking of an air cream maybe?

The K18 really softens and even kind of helps the tangling but I wash pretty often and don't want to overload my stands with the k18

Thanks!

I’m dealing with severe tangling after every wash. Even when I condition and try to apply products gently, I still run into knots that I can’t get through.

The Redken pre-treatment is out of stock everywhere, so I’m looking at the 5-min post-shampoo mask instead.

Has anyone used it for serious tangles? Did it actually help, and how often should it be used?
Any advice would really help

Do you always use the shampoo and corresponding conditioner from the same brand and line, or do you mix it up? Anyone mixing drugstore and high end?

I’m currently using Pantene Sheer Volume Shampoo with higher end conditioners such as Kerastase or Oribe, and I’ve really liked the result. Are any of you doing something similar, and if so which products? Also if you don’t think mixing is a good idea, I’d be interested to hear your reasons!

I’m a guy with dense fine hair, sometimes my hair is very short like 3-4” while other times it can be 6-8”.

I really like styling my hair in a way that leaves it malleable as there’s so many benefits. Like for example, if a gust of wind blows my hair out of wack, at least it’s not locked in until I have a couple minutes of time to fix it in front of a mirror.

After years and years of trialing different products, I finally settled on a great wax based pre styler that gives me a lot of texture and volume, but unfortunately is a bit heavy.

It’s still by far the best thing I’ve tried but nothing beats my hair after swimming in the ocean, a lake, or after exercising (from sweat). I just get a really natural texture that adds good volume without weighing my hair down. And I really like the “effortless” look.

I was wondering if Oribe Texturizing Spray would have an effect like this? It seems too good to be true but everyone raves about it. Though, “everyone” is usually woman with longer hair so I’m not sure if our goals are aligned when it comes to hair.

Thanks everyone

I’ve been trying to get my hair to be healthier but I’m struggling a little! I did some research and I’ve used coconut oil for a while- it’s helped, but not for long. I’m wondering what I could do to give it some life and have it grow thicker and longer. I would say I have 2B hair

Short fine hair- drying with root lift or something is essential. I’m looking for a round brush- kinda wide tooth and long tooth for blow dry styling. I have yet to find one that doesn’t have super short teeth.
Anybody? TIA.

Hello! I have long, wavy, fine, low-porosity hair and I’ve been struggling to keep it hydrated. I feel like my routine is missing a deep conditioner, really just something to add a lot of moisture. I would love some recommendations because the Ouai and Briogeo masks made my hair feel like straw (I think it was the protein) and Amika masks make me breakout. Thanks in advance :)

Hi what shampoo would you recommend for dry fine hair to use daily? I use at the moment Kerastase gloss absolu that is great but I was thinking about some cheaper/ budget more friendly options

thank you!
