static hair
« on: June 19, 2015, 10:15:42 AM »

do any ladies get this?  I used to but it stopped for some years but has recently returned.

What causes it? Is it because my hair is more dry/thinner or could it be to do with chemicals in the shampoo and products.  Do I need to change my shampoo now my hair is older/dryer/thinner?

I use Aegon Oil & it worked for me as I got this static hair that drove me crazy.
It started after I came off HRT, my hair was one of the first problems I encountered. :(
My hairdresser recommended it so I looked in Sains''' & a small bottle cost £4 but it has lasted for about 6 months & I'm only 1/2 way through it, you only need very little of it & it gives my hair a lovely shine.

Dove do good shampoo for the ummm older lady   ::)

Also do you use any conditioner. I do a couple of times a week otherwise my hair gets very lank.

Another wonderful part of getting older and declining hormones.

Yes I do use conditioner or I look like a mad professor!  I am allergic to Dove products and I try to steer clear of products with SLS in,  but I will look at the oil you mention Cazikins  :)

thanks, I have ordered some Argan oil after reading up on it as I have badly split nails and I can use it on them too it seems  :).  I have also got some organic scent and SLS free shampoo from the Green People.  Used it last night and no static or frizz today  :)

Not sure whether it has been the change of water here but my hair has taken on a life of its own this week.
I hope it settles when I go home otherwise an urgent appointement with a woman with scissors is required  ;D

I know Babyjane - it's brilliant stuff, since I started using it my hair has got its shine back.
Glad it has worked for you too.

Honeybun - did the frizz effect settle or will a trip to the Grooming Parlour be required  ;)  ::)
