Which conditioner and shampoo combination good for your hair? A question which every single person has on their mind currently. Too many options confuse you and make the decision far more difficult. Colour treated hair is no different. How do you keep your hair colour intact for a longer period because you spent a bomb on it?!
What Sort of Hair Do You Have?
The first step to decide which combination to use is to know what sort of hair you have. Hair is broadly divided into four parts, which is further sub-divided into more categories.
1. Straight - Straight hair is further divided into three parts
- Stick straight hair (fine/thin): this sort of hair is difficult to damage or curt and is mostly shiny and limp
- Medium straight hair which has a tinge of volume.
- Coarse straight hair which is like 1a but coarse and shabby looking at times.
2. Wavy - Wavy hair is further divided into three parts
- Fine/thin wavy hair which has a definite "S" pattern. This hair can generally hold hairstyles better
- Medium wavy hair which is generally frizzy and is a tad bit resistant to styling.
- Coarse wavy hair is frizzy sometimes unmanageable and very resistant to styling.
3. Curly - Curly hair is divided into two parts.
- Loose curls which form an "S" and have thickness, and/or frizziness
- Tight curls also have a definite "S" pattern, but they range from spirals or corkscrew spirals.
4. Kinky - This hair has two subcategories
- Soft kinky hair is fragile and very wiry, tightly coiled and may have curling pattern.
- This hair is wirier and has almost no curling pattern. The hair looks like a "Z" with sharp angles.
Now that you have an idea of how to find out your hair type, be advised that you will most likely have a combination of hair types. You also must take into consideration pollution, diet and your scalp type. Oily and dry hair are a reality. And sometimes oily hair along with dry hair is the worse reality you can live in! Couple this with colour treated hair and your dilemma has gone up several more notches.
