I have been told by some hairdressers never to use pantene as its basically full of silicon, which makes your hair look nice, but does awful things to it.

And the hairdresser that cut off all my hair has coloured hair and told me she uses herbal essences after I asked what she uses.

I used to shwarzcof (sp!) but don't like the new formula :\, and the conditioner I'm using is the super cheap fruit essences or whatever its called. And its not bad! Their shampoo is pretty good too, imo.
