When i use glycerine in the summer to attract water, I end up with frizzies. I can not use it during the winter time because it is dry and it will attract the water from the hair if the air do not contain it. When do i use glycerine then? ”hair naturally equilibrates to the humidity in your environment”

My daughter has chemially over processed hair. I know that there is no quick fix & that her hair need to grow out with out any more processing to become healthy again. However is there anything I can do in the mean time to stop the breakage & dryness. Her poor hair is brittle & breaking so bad. Bad me for not choosing a better salon that knows properly how to touch up a relaxer verses reappling it to the whole head. She is miserable & so am I knowing that for an 11 year old image is alot. I just need to know how to help keep it from breaking off so much & get it back healthy & moisturized. Please if you have advice let me know. To make matters worse she has been using Nuetragena T-gell as her regular shampoo once a week without a folow up moisturizer. So yes her hair is clean but it is aloso BONE DRY. Any items to promote hair growth to help the new grow -grow faster & healthier? Thank you for your advice(and scolding) jessica.dobbins@yahoo.com Ok, I need some help.

My recent switch to better-quality shampoo has made a huge difference in my hair. I have also cut back on blow drying and styling with heat and I can already tell a noticeable difference and improvement in my hair. Redken is great and I highly recommend it to anyone!
