I like to keep my hair long, but my ends are SO dry! What would be a good hair oil (or other product) to keep my ends from being so dry? My hair is straight and fine, I don’t use any blow dryers or anything like that; I air dry. I also stopped dyeing my hair several years ago so I still have damaged hair from that.
Thank you so much!
 
Olaplex No 7 Bonding Hair Oil. If you've coloured your hair in the past, maybe consider doing the whole at-home Olaplex hair stuff. I bought the intro sample kit, did the whole multi-step programme once a week for a month.

It has done miracles for my hair and now use the No 7 oil as maintenance. I also airdry my hair but have heard too that airdrying can cause undue stress because the hair's cuticle stays open for so long.
 
I swear by Kerastase Elixir Ultime :love:
Thank you!

I don't have any recommendations for hair oils but I've read somewhere about letting hair air dry is actually damaging the hair. I also noticed my hair is less dry when I use the dryer instead
Oh! I will have to research that. Thank you!

I like Sisley hair oil. If you have a Sisley counter at your local department store you can get a box of samples with the entire line. They also make a nice weightless conditioner and a volumizing leave in conditioner.
Thank you!

Thank you! You are the second person to mention that air drying is not as great as I supposedly thought it was.

I really like the Light Moroccanoil treatment, been using it for years! IGK Best Life Oil is great, too.
Thank you!

Just coz something's cheap, doesn't mean it's not excellent. I have very long wavy hair that is prone to frizz and VO5 Invisibly Light Hair Oil is better than most of the very expensive oils and treatments I've tried.

Thank you!

I have very fine thin hair, the only thing that makes it looks smooth and sleek are GHDs used with hair serum but I keep getting told heat is very bad for your hair, even though my hairdresser uses GHDs on me and says its OK as long as I use protection. Now I am wary of using them so am letting my hair air dry when I can, I have bought a Tangle Teezer brush, just brush it with that and leave it be but it still doesn't look as good as when I use the GHDs. How can I baby my hair but still get it to look good. It is in a chin length bob at the moment and I am trying to grow it so can certainly do without any damage.
