AskJax: Shampoo

Update:  Check out my guest post over at Miraculous Ladies !!!!

A few weeks back, the lovely Jannine from FashionistArg asked me for some hair advice!

Don't know her?  You should!  She's a total make up and fashion goddess!!  Not even kidding...

You see, Jannine and I have very fine/thin hair which could be difficult to manage.

It gets oily very quickly but can get very dry just as quick.

See where the problem is?

If you don't use the appropriate tools or products, your hair can get very damaged.

Fine hair also falls very flat very quickly.  It's hard to give it life and style.

My options are limp, dead, and lifeless or my natural, frizzy curls!!  Eep...

I hated my hair until I became a self proclaimed shampoo guru!

Some people may argue that all shampoos are the same.  It's not true.

You find this out the hard way when you have very sensitive, fine hair.  It's awful!

My shower holds 30 bottles of shampoo and conditioner.

Each bottle is for a different day.  Some shampoos are better for certain weather or seasons.

...and no, I'm totally not crazy.  I swear...

Jax's Top 5 Favorite Shampoos and Conditioners.

5.  Kenra Volumizing Shampoo/Conditioner Combo

  This brand is great for the spring/summer.  It's also a great choice when you're battling humidity, yet still want to rock straight or wavy hair.  Makes your hair look shiny and healthy while feeling soft!

Oh, and it totally makes you hair smell delicious!!!!

4.  Chi Shampoo & Infra Treatment

This brand is amazing for during the winter or fall months.  It can turn dry, dull hair into a mane with life!  

Tip:  Mix the Infra Treatment with conditioner for extra moisture.  You're hair will shine!

3.  John Frieda Full Repair Conditioner

This conditioner is a gift from the universe!  I apply it generously at least twice a week to my hair for the shampoos that ride solo in my shower.  Leaves a healthy glow without the nasty grease look.

This conditioner is like a magic potion!  Many conditioners can leave you hair feeling dirty.

2.  Shea Moisture Yucca Shampoo/Conditioner/Masque

This set is amazing for anytime that your hair is feeling over processed and damaged.  I use this at least once a week all year round.  It's never let me down and makes my hair feel and look real thick!

This brand is very hard to find.  I've only seen it sold in Target and I've searched everywhere for it!

1.  Organix Coconut Milk Shampoo

This is by far my favorite shampoo.  I use it every other day without fail.  It does everything that a shampoo should do.  It cleans without over cleaning, leaves your hair shiny and soft, and totally makes me smile!

...and it smells like coconut which just happens to be my favorite scent in the world!!!

Some other important shampoo tips is to always purchase sulfate free shampoo.  Sulfates can do serious damage do your hair follicles.  Another thing I try and look for is paraben free.

Paraben is so bad for you that spell check isn't even recognizing it as a real word.  Just sayin...

What are your favorite shampoo/conditioners for your hair type?
