Mine is so long that most of it gets wrapped around my fingers as I rinse the shampoo out. Then I just take all the hairs, swipe them on the shower wall, and then grab them all at the end when I get out of the shower. Easy clean up and no drain clogging. :awesome:

Yep. I have wavy hair and I lose probably between 50-100 hairs every morning in the shower and have been for as long as I can remember. If I was able to brush it throughout the day like someone with straight hair, I doubt I'd lose as many hairs.




Yeah, I can't brush my daily, either.  Someone earlier stated that theirs practically dreads when they don't do something with it for a while...yeeeeah, that's me as well.  Which is kinda cool, until hair-washing day comes around.  Then it's a bitch.

Ballerium, weren't you the one in the Ladies forum that said you used that Organix brand shampoo and conditioner?  What kind was it that you used?  I bought some because you suggested it.  I was out shopping and couldn't remember which one, so I bought the Brazilian Keratin one (I think).  So far it's been great!!

Yeah that was me. I alternate between different ones. Lately I've been using argan oil & shea butter, and awapuhi ginger. But I've tried plenty of their other ones and they all work well IMO. I haven't tried the Brazilian Keratin one though. Does it work well on curly hair?

I really like it, but have nothing to compare it against.  I figured when I run out I'll try something new.  I almost bought the argan oil one though, so I might try that next.  I had a lot of breakage because I kept my hair straight  most of the time. That's why I chose keratin over the rest. I'm trying to come to terms with my curly hair, just for the health of it.  Plus, when I can control it, I love it.

Didn't mean to semi-hijack the thread, Rorge! I'm sure curly-headed males could benefit from curly hair products.  It's a very temperamental style, you know.

absolutely do not use the brazillian keratin treatments, they're great for
the first few weeks but they often do a lot more damage than they give help
in straightening hair. do some serious reading on the topic before using it

Yeah don't they put formaldehyde in it or something? Seems like I was reading something about that not too long ago. I like my hair wavy anyway though so I doubt I would ever use one. I was just inquiring about the shampoo and conditioner which, as far as I know doesn't actually straighten the hair.

But thanks for the heads up. :hug:

Yeah, I bought the keratin shampoo for strength.  I was thinking keratin is to hair, kinda like collagen is to skin. Like for resiliency. Maybe I'm totally wrong.  I just have a lot of breakage.

Hair is made of keratin I think, but I wonder if keratin in a shampoo really can become incorporated into an existing hair and strengthen it. My guess is that it can't but I never really looked into it.

I'm almost 30 and I haven't seen any hair loss, I figure if I go bald now I had a good run.

p.s.

Yeah I was wondering that too.

Laurelei, Organix also makes a thickening/strengthening one called Biotin & Collagen. I use it during the winter when my hair begins to feel weighed down. It makes mine noticeably thicker.

I'm 37 and I've kept a strong head of hair with almost zero thinning, but it is completely silver.

the keratin fills the pits in the hair and kinda bonds with it, it doesnt
actually incorporate, more like a coating, it's part of why it works as a
relaxer, it adds some weight so it straightens the hair, heat from things
like blow drying, alcohols from hair products, chemical treatments such as
perms, straighteners and colors all add to the damage s a proper keratin
treatment is good if your hair is badly damaged, not so good if it's healthy


every time I get my hair cut the stylist says I have healthy hair, I tell
them my mom was a stylist for almost 30 years and they're like "oh, that
explain it"... yeah, I was her lab rat, that explains it

When my hair gets too dry I will rinse it/shower and then put a TINY bit of bag balm on my hands, rub it into my hands, then rub my hands through my hair. It takes longer to dry but it does seem to protect my hair well enough to bounce back the next day.

Only thing that KEEPS my hair from getting too dry is only washing it as needed. For me, that ranges from every few days when I'm working/sweating all day, to every other week whenever its Winter and I'm not sweating anywhere near as much.

Maybe you should start using natural shampoo/conditioner? Like with hazel and other oils and such...There's lots of recipes online




Look up washing hair with baking soda and apple cider vinegar (diluted) It works wonders and it's cheap.

Yeah, I mean I'm happy I haven't gone bald yet, but if I was there would be no point fretting about it. It's really the lack of self confidence that some people have about balding that's unattractive anyway. If you carry it like you don't give a shit, it doesn't seem to be a big deal really.

Hey Rorge, you should try 1T of baking soda (shampoo), followed by a few tablespoons of unfiltered apple cider vinegar (conditioner). Squeeze a wedge or two of lemon into the ACV for added softness. You can also apply a small amount (1/4tsp) of coconut oil into your hair prior to the shower. Let it sit for awhile and then wash. It's a called "no-poo" and I've been washing my hair two to three times a week since June after previously washing with high quality Matrix shampoos and conditioners every day for over a year and it's working wonderful. My hair has never felt better.
