Shampoo/conditioner that doesn’t break the bank for fine wavy hair prone to frizz, oiliness, and drying out. Was using Prose and Hairstory but both are so $$ !

Squeak + Veganese | LUSH: This combo might work really well for you. Squeak has sea salt (great for us wavy hair folks), and all the oil-busting fruit enzymes, and Veganese is super light weight and detangling. I revisited LUSH haircare because Hairstory just felt too expensive. Their founder is a trichologist, so the haircare in my opinion is the best thing they make as a company, but no one talks about it!

Not Your Mother's Kids Daily Care Fragrance-Free Shampoo: Shampoo for kids is the best for fine hair! It doesn’t coat it and weigh it down because it’s not trying so hard and making all these promises about texture and revitalizing nutrients and bla bla bla.

To paraphrase the poet Avril Lavigne: why do we grow up and make things so complicated?

Desert Essence Green Apple & Ginger Conditioner: This works well for my wavy/fine hair. It gives it moisture and shine, without the weight. I also like the smell. Unfortunately, or fortunately for those that don’t like smells, the smell is gone when your hair dries.

Wella fusion: I’ve got the same type of hair and this makes it soft, shiny and not not greasy. I use the conditioner and shampoo.

Co-Wash with theThe Earthling Co. Conditioner Bar: Ok hear me out- 45, starting to grey and these hairs break and frizz, orherwise blond fine hair, history of being oily fast. What I want is moisturized, volumized hair that I dont have to wash everyday. This is it- despite being fine haired, using this conditioner bar as a cowash does the trick- use lots of water to get it distributed, scrub scalp with a silicone scalp brush and let sit while you do other things for a few minutes ( ie shave) and rinse well ( I use the handheld shower head to get the most pressure). This gets me great hair for 2 days then use Tap Secret dry shampoo powder to get 1-4 days. No smell. Use the shampoo bar once every 4-6 weeks. Air dry. Easiest and best hair I have had. We have very hard water for reference.

L'Oréal Paris Shampoo Volume Sulfate Free: I really like this shampoo and conditioner for my fine hair that is greasy at the roots and can be dry on the ends. I wash my hair daily. I’ve been using it on and off for years - always coming back to it. Good smell, good price!

Monday haircare: I use the Smooth shampoo, but the Moisture conditioner. It works better for me than a lot of fancy brands!
