Hair Product recs!! I’ll show you mine, please show me yours :)

[Chey0103]

Hi all! I’m looking for recs for the following products. For all products I need them to be very lightweight (my hair drags down easily), colour safe, without heavy wash-resistant film formers/silicones(dimethicone, phenyl trimethicibe), but washable(PEG-dimethicones, volatile(cyclosiloxane) or charged silicone complexes (amodimethicone) and film formers are okay. I also try to stay away from alcohol denat and volatiles but I know it’s near impossible to find an aerosol without them so I use sparingly.

SEEKING:

- Colour protecting/enhancing product

- Gloss (no colour deposit, just shine)

- Styling product: for holding iron curls and controlling frizz, no pre-blow dry needed, no crunch.

- Hair spray: medium hold for moveable curls that keep shape, not crunchy or too stiff, can be sprayed on before heat.

- Leave in conditioner

- dry shampoo: colourless

- colour protection shampoo/conditioner

-Any other holy grails or tips!

Here are mine! I have dark, medium length hair with a fresh balayage, some damage at the ends. Bottom heavy, thinner and flatter on top. V dry - can go 6 days without looking greasy. Air dry and curl.

SCALP/DETOX:

Living Proof Scalp Care Density Serum for Thinning & Greying Hair 1.7 oz / 50 ml - actually had new baby hairs after 1.5 weeks!

JVN Complete Pre-Wash Scalp & Hair Strengthening Treatment Oil 1.7 oz / 50 ml - use with a pre shower mask

Moroccanoil Purifying Pre-Wash Scalp Scrub 4.2 oz / 125 ml #- gets rid of flakes

Living Proof Clarifying Detox Shampoo 8 oz / 236 mL #- not drying and cleans v well.

REPAIR:
K18 Biomimetic Hairscience Mini Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask 0.5 oz/ 15 mL #-used once pre-colour service and noticed a huge difference. I prefer this over Olaplex personally.

HYDRATING/STYLING:

JVN Complete Nourishing Hair Oil Shine Drops 1.7 oz/ 50 mL #- BEST HAIR OIL EVER!! The ingredients are all beneficial and well thought out. The oil is so light I use it on dry hair after I curl to rake them out and they don’t go flat. The shine is unreal. May not be rich enough for some but I think anyone could benefit from the ingredients

amika Dream Routine Overnight Hydrating Hair Mask 3.3 oz / 100 mL #- I used a sample of this. It’s literally undetectable in the morning and silky smooth.

BondiBoost Thermal & Heat Protectant Spray with Aloe + Rosemary 4.23 oz/ 125 mL #- only heat protectant I’ve used that doesn’t feel filmy or stiff and is alcohol, butane + other aerosol related things free! You can use it on dry hair right before styling but it takes a little bit to dry. Recommend spraying on all sections, brushing through, doing something else then turning on your tool when ready.

TOOLS/ACCESSORIES

SEPHORA COLLECTION Silicone Scalp Massager Blue #- cheap and does the job, easy to wash

dae Vegan Detangle + Style Brush #- best brush

Bio Ionic Long Barrel Styler Pro Curling Iron 1" #- the long barrel curls the whole section of hair in one pass.
Slip Slipsilk™ Skinny Scrunchies - 3 pack Dame #- no pull, no tangles, no indents even after long use, very little traction, also so cute.

Not listed/Sephora products:

- shampoo + conditioner + leave in + pre shower mask: Prose!! Amazing service and you end up saving money on custom products with high end ingredients.
- Briogeo Colour Me Brilliant hair primer: can’t comment on whether it prolongs colour yet but it’s got an excellent ingredient profile, washable and better film formers, lovely light/natural scent and a nice consistency. Sad Sephora doesn’t carry it. 

THANKS!!
