Hello everyone

suggestions for a good hair mask please. I always used elvive extraordinary oils but can't seem to get it.

I don't like coconut oil.

Please don't post links.

Mature, coloured, use of straighteners and curling brush. It's not dry because I use hair masks, mythic oil and heat protection. It has greasy roots but I don't put product on the roots.

"How’s your hair naturally?"

Frizzy and grey .

If I left it for 5 years it would be beautiful.

I use the Aussie staycation colour glow one. It smells amazing. They have a whole range for different things too.

I've found the Extraordinary Oil on Asos and Superdrug, not sure they are the same ones you've been using?

I use the Garnier Ultimate Blends Hair food masque, the Papaya one. Once or twice a month I use the Philip Kingsley Elasticezer Deep Conditioning Treatment but it's expensive so not really a weekly one for me.

Yes I use the Garnier one I really like it.

Banana, honey and avocado oil, blitz in a blender, slap it on and rinse well after an hour.

I thought this was gonna be about pulling your hair across your face to form an emergency mask when you go shopping..... I'm disappointed

Depends on what your wanting the hair mask for.. Is your hair dry and damaged or just dull and wanting a boost?

I highly recommend Olaplex..Nothing better and you don't use it often.

Leaves a great shine and helps strengthen the hair..

Best one I’ve used is the oh k hair mask that comes with a treatment cap. Left my hair beautiful. But to be honest any of the Korean skin and hair care ranges are amazing

I'm using the Elvive Dream Lengths mask at the moment, until I run out of regular hair care products and get onto curly girl. I apply after washing, put my hair up in a shower cap and rinse it off after 45 minutes.

Tropic hair feast. Not the cheapest but it works amazingly and smells divine too. Vegan, sustainable and cruelty free. One of my favourite brands for a treat or two x

This!

Or Matrix biolage range.

Stay away from supermarket shampoos! Coats your hair, rather than actually condition it.

I get my Matrix stuff from Amazon, half the price of salons.

ok, I've looked at all of your suggestions, thanks everyone.

I'm researching a few on Amazon re price, reviews etc but some are really expensive

Philip Kingsley elasticizer. It's

very expensive but it's the best thing I've ever used to repair damage and treat my hair. I'm not lying when I say it completely saved my hair and helped it to repair after I wrecked it with bleach a few years ago. It's a miracle in a bottle.

I used eggs in my hair once, unless you use ice cold water to rinse it you end up with scrambled eggs and its really hard to get out . You also smell raw egg all day

I think I might do the shower cap thing with a more reasonably priced mask. I'm currently using Pantene three minute mask and its not great

For the cheaper brands, looking for offers at Superdrug is always worth doing. (I think their mega hair sale thing is still on)

I really don't understand why trial sizes aren't a thing when it comes to expensive cosmetics, skincare etc. I hate spending so much money on something only for it not to work for me and then I'm not able to return it. It's such a pain.

I hear that so much. Minis are a thing in some cosmetics, but it's still often a lot.

I think it's more of a thing in the USA. I used to use a company called RosesBeautyStore that imported makeup from America and they did mini sample bags for £3.50 and I used to buy five or six bags.

I would get little NARS blushes, mini Bite Beauty lipsticks, mini Tarte cleansers,TooFaced foundations, mini mascaras which were all the perfect size to trial. I'd so pay for that size!!

Oh god yes. Here it's like £10 for a half size Mac lipstick or something. Although foundation trials happen

our daughter got me a trial size of a really expensive face cleanser, its gorgeous but doesn't suit my skin, full price is hugely expensive and I'd have been long sorry to have bought it
