My hairs been really damaged from highlighting...I've been using deep conditioners and leaving on for about 10 min to help condition my hair. I've used Copolla Color Care Conditioner, Michael O'Rourke Conditoner, Blonde Blombshell Conditioner,,,really like this one, very conditioning. I also use the Chi leave in keratin treatment, Morrocan Oil, and the It's a 10. All of these products really help to give more moisture to my hair. I know, I use alot of products! Hope that helped!

Paul Mitchell's Skinny Serum - smells good, and really smooths down your hair! It's cheaper than Morrocan Oil, and it leaves my hair smelling like Jolly Ranchers candies! It's saved me from crazy bleach jobs and breaking hair.  =)

Moroccan Oil ended up drying out my hair ends, which got worse when I bleached my hair for the ombre hair look. My favorite hair mask for repairing the damage was Philip Kingsley's Elasticizer. It really is a miracle product. I apply it before I get into the shower and leave it in for 20 minutes, then I shampoo and conditon. My hair is super soft and easy to blow dry afterwards--can't tell it's damaged at all!

There's a product by Living Proof called No Frizz Styling Creme. My hair tends to frizz and get damaged quite easily and when I used this product, it didn't weigh down my hair or getoily. It was great! It can be a little bit on the pricey side ($15-$94), but it caters to different hair types (medium/thick) and is totally awesome! Hope this helps :)

Yes! Paul Mitchel's Super Skinny Serum. It is SO good. I've tried a lot of things on the side but my skinny serum will always be my favorite. Been using it for liek 5 years. Amazing

I have fine hair, but I have a lot of it, and I've found that Garnier's sleek and shine anti-humidity serum works really well for me! But, my favorite is the Pureology Super Straight Relaxing Serum. It works great against frizz and humidity, and it makes my hair look really soft and shiney, which I need because I frequently color my hair, and I straighten it every day. And it smells SOOOO good.

I like Moroccan Oil for my hair, it's naturally dry and coarse so it helps smooth everything out when I flat iron it, or when I leave it in it's natural curly wavyness. I've tried the Super Skinny Serum by Paul Mitchell too, but like most other hair serums, products, makeup, it made me break out in horrible cystic acne all around my hairline and my scalp. But if you don't have sensitive skin it works wonderfully, and like Soma S said it makes your head smell like a Jolly Rancher!

I try to do a hydrating hair mask every few days to keep up with damage control. I really like Frederick Fekkai's Technician Color Care 3-Minute Mask. I alternate that with one by Bumble&Bumble but it's not nearly as good as Fekkai's. I even make make my own treatements with coconut oil and olive oil (I wrap my head in a scarf and leave it on overnight sometimes). After I shower I spray my hair with CHI Keratin mist and/or use a few drops of Josie Maran's Argan Oil.

What I've found most helpful is not washing it daily anymore. Sometimes I won't actually shampoo it for three or four days I'll just rinse it with clean water and use a clarifying conditioner. A really inexpensive one I like is VO5 Herbal Escapes Clarifying Conditioner in Kiwi Lime Squeeze.

This is a topic close to my heart...every six months a devilish urge comes upon me to 'lighten up' and so out comes the bleach. I have naturally curly reddish brown hair, and so the cycle of highlights/allover blonde/black all over when the effort of rootage defeats me has left me with very damaged hair. No matter how much I cut off after the blonde urge has left me, I have a 'halo' of dry, frizzy nastiness that even after a conditioning semi permanent black colour refuses to behave or hold a curl or straighten nicely.
It taunts me, it looks as if its going to co-operate after styling, but one gust of wind, or the merest hint of rain and it suddenly concertinas into mad frizz and odd half curls.
UNTIL
John Friedas weather protection serum and 3 day straight spray. Seriously, I can't recommend this enough. It gave me the sleek manageable straight hair I'd always dreamed of, but ended up trading swingyness for lank flatness in the past. And they're always on some sort of get one free or two for x amount. Love them.

I agree with the paul mitchell super skinny serum!

But I'm also still a lover of Chi Silk Infusion, although it seems as though everyone has forgotten about it after macadamia oil came about.
