What do you use

To keep your hair soft? Mine hates the winter weather and in turn has become really dry. I use suave shampoo and conditoner and biosilk but its still frizzy and dry. I need suggestions of what to use after I shower to make it easier to deal with. I do blow dry it and maybe twice a week I flat iron it. I always use thermal protection spray to guard against heat damage, my stylist says that its working because my hair has very little heat damage at all. Yet its so dry.

We have Target and Walmart nearby so I'd like to be able to get the products from there

DOVE! I have 'weird' hair b/c its not curly but its not straight, I call it poofy! Mine frizzes something awful. I can't use Suave nor Herbal Essence nor Infusium nor Pantene. I like Garnier and Tresseme. But I'm preggo and my hair has gone all out of sorts. And the Dove shampoo has worked wonders and I love it! It doesn't leave a nasty film or stip my hair. Hope you can find something that helps!

Oh, and put a tablespoon of Baking Soda (or is it powder, anyways its the arm & hammer stuff) in your hair when shampooing about 1-2x a week. That will also help some.

I use the dove spray that is a heat protectant. Ive tried the shampoo it made my hair oily so I stopped using it. The suave helps alot but once I towel dry it and use the hair dryer its a mess. I can not let my hair air dry or I look like a poodle

Have you tried a leave in conditioner or one that you leave in for a few minutes and then you rinse it out? That's my only suggestion.

I use suave kid's detangler spray on conditioner stuff.
And when that runs out I put conditioner about 1/8 full and then fill the bottle with water and shake. Shake before each use. This really cuts back on my poof.

I use Pantene shampoo, conditioner and detangler. It's the detangler that you spray on after you wash your hair. They have a special formula for dry hair.
