deep conditioning treatment for hair that works?

BLUEBIE

I have very dry out of condition dyed hair.

I want to get my hair coloured and highlighted but want to get it into better condition first, does anyone know of any deep treatments that actually work?

I have this week tried putting olive oil on it, which didn't do anything bad but I'm not convinced it works either.

Also if there are any hairdressers out there, is there anything you can do to encourage hair growth? Does massaging the scalp actually work etc?

Hi, i always find the treatments i buy from the hairdressers make my hair greasy!
Up until recently i had quite long hair but on my last visit got quite a lot cut off and have been taking vitamins for the hair and avoiding the dreaded straightners and so far so good! I also find drinking lots of water and lots of fruit and veg and oily fish helps my hair!

If you go to a good hairdresser they should use a hair colourant that does not damage the hair.

This is fab.

Not sure if it encourages growth but i love it as a conditioner.

It does work out quite expensive as you need to use a fair glob everyday (between Shampoo and Conditioner) until condition improves; and then as required.

I noramlly get it on three for two so not so bad. (as atm)

I'm always looking for my holy grail conditioner and spend a fortune but always end up coming back to this.

One treatment won't do much, you will need to do it for a month every week at least. Kevin Murphy Born Again is brilliant.

I would say coconut oil is much better then olive oil. I used to like the Aussie 3 minute miracle treatment when I was dying and treating my hair a lot. For hair growth would recommend a vitamin supplement, there is a Superdrug own brand one specifically for hair and nails - I haven't used it as mine grows pretty quick anyway but have some friends who swear by it.

I have long hair that I dye red once a month and I use this..

It keeps my hair shiny , smells amazing and my hair is so soft. I've tried so many conditioners over the years but i love this!

ETA it's the SOS twice a week conditioner that I use, they sell it in Asda too

Phillip Kingsley Elasticizer has been my saviour (very long, frequently dyed/bleached hair, lots of heat treatment), but it is quite expensive. Absolutely the best I've ever used though.

As for growing hair, not sure about scalp massages (I quickly get bored if trying to do it myself) but I do take hair and nail supplements. I've only been taking them for the past couple of months, and think there is a slight improvement. I only just realised this week how long my hair had got (though I haven't cut it in a while ) and my nails are ridiculously strong. Even if they dont work, some extra vitamins are unlikely to hurt...

coconut oil without a doubt. Or grapeseed oil, I alternate depending on how dry my hair is.
Coconut oil I use mostly for an everyday kind of thing, and grapeseed for deep treatments

The only thing I have found to sort the condition of my hair is a brazillian keratin anti frizz treatment. Each one lasts 3-5 months depending on what type of shampoos I use and there is no way I could have long or coloured hair without it as my hair is like candyfloss, frizzy and rough without it.

Redken do some excellent deep conditioning treatments. Their Smooth Down Butter Treat is excellent.

Does it work for any type of hair? How much does it cost?
My hair is also coloured (too many white ones otherwise!), and always frizzy...
