What's a good shampoo & conditioner for not a lot of money? I'm 49 with long, fine, kind of dry hair?

There are several additional factors that could affect your Shampoo|shampoo/Hair Conditioner|conditioner choices. Is your hair straight or curly? Has it been processed (color, perm, straightened)?

Do you blow-dry or use any heat styling like curling or flat irons? Does you have problems with breakage? I have long, fine, and somewhat dry hair, too.

I also don't like spending $10 or more for a bottle of shampoo. I have found Pantene's Daily Moisture Renewal shampoo and conditioner to work very well. They also make a Beautiful Lengths shampoo/conditioner product.

When the weather is particularly cold and dry (and my hair is more prone to breakage), a conditioning (all-in-one type) shampoo followed by a rich moisturizing conditioner work well. Good alternatives are Finesse products and the Suave products that are supposed to be the same as Biolage. Alternate brands occasionally to avoid buildup that dulls the hair.

If you have a problem with dry ends but the rest of your hair looks stringy, don't use conditioner all over, just on the ends. If you just have particularly dry ends and breakage, massage a bit of conditioner into the ends immediately after shampooing/conditioning and leave it in. Inexpensive hot oil treatments from discount stores work well for an occasional shine boost, too.

If you have a problem with "flyaways" (broken-off or hair that is does not reach the full length and sticks out), Suave Anti-Frizz Cream is a great inexpensive product. Squeeze a very small amount into your palm, rub hands together and then very lightly smooth over your hair. Be careful, too much will make fine hair look stringy and greasy.

A few other things to help keep your hair long, healthy, and shiny are vitamin supplements for hair, skin, and nails and plenty of protein in your diet. You really don't have to spend a lot of money to have great hair.

I love Joico shampoo & conditioner. It may seem expensive, but their bottles are huge, so I only have to buy shampoo every other month.

Shampoo is meant to remove dirt, sebum (a.k.a. Oils), and product buildup from your hair. But there are dozens of different brands to choose from, and even more types within those brands.

The same goes for conditioners. Hair Conditioner|Conditioners are meant to add shine, protect hair from drying out and allow for easier combing. Here, we run down the best shampoos and conditioners for four different hair types.

Fine, oily, or limp hair Fine hair is most susceptible to looking 'oily' and can get this way after only one day. Opt for clear shampoos and stay away from the creamy ones that were made for your curlier sisters. You want a gentle shampoo marked for daily or frequent washing.

The secret fine hair shampoo lies in a bodybuilding ingredient called panthenol. Hair experts swear that panthenol penetrates the hair cuticle making each strand thicker. Another tip: Use a dry shampoo or talcum powder between washings.

Not only will the powder soak up oils, but it adds body as well. Conditioners: Not all limp-haired ladies need conditioners. If you find you can easily comb out hair after washings without a conditioner you can skip it.

Conditioners are good for combing out fine hair. Just don’t let the product touch your scalp. Massage a light-weight conditioner from mid-shaft down and no need to leave it on for long.

If you have extremely greasy hair, look for the oil-absorbing tea-tree oil in your conditioner. Extra tip: Consider using a spray conditioner. They tend to be more light-weight and therefore don’t weigh the hair down.

Also, unless your hair is extra-oily, there’s no need to ‘rinse and repeat. €™ One shampoo will do you. You don’t have to lather twice.

Dry, damaged hair Avoid clear shampoos and go straight for the creamy ones. These smooth, detangle and diffuse static. Conditioners: Again, moisturizing is key.

You’ll want to look for an ultra-moisturizing conditioner.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
