I have been putting conditioner on my dry hair to smooth it - did i do tons of damage?

it was starting to look really dry and frizzled and i found out if i lay some pantene on the bottom half it looked great. well months later my hair is in even worse shape. i know nothing about hair care except shampoo and conditioner and no hairdryer and pat gently with towel. the top of my head is greasy and bottom half of hair is dry dry dry...

well, dont wash your hair everyday, trim your dry ends, and do a deep conditioning treatment once a week were you let the conditioner in your hair for a few hours and then rinse it out..... use Biosilk silk therapy for dry hair, not conditioner, that biosilk will restore the silk proteins lost in your hair and it will smooth the frizz... i hope this helped....

Mary ,you seem not to be treating your hair in a bad way

the only thing that could be hurting it, is the way you get the hair combed through. let me go over the dos and don'ts

always use a wide tooth comb, not a brush, holding the shaft, comb out the knots starting from the bottom up.Do section by section, never try to take out knots when hair is damp it MUST be completely wet,or hair will stretch and you will get split ends .good luck

You haven't been damaging it but I would recommend changing your shampoo and conditioner every so often cause I get the same problem when I use the same one for to long. You can always use a moisturizing treatment like my favorite, a hot oil treatment once a week! But the key is to change your shampoo and conditioner probably every time your run out.

Hope this helps!
