Title: like straw :-/
Post by waiting4longlocks on Oct 28th, 2008 at 6:50pm
I used *TONS* of hairspray this past weekend, and since then I've shampooed twice & done at least 2 ACV rinses... and my hair still has traces of hairspray and the ends feels like straw.       :-/

Help!

Do you use any products with protein in them?  An excess of protein will cause brittle hair and I have heard the hairspray can compound it.  ACV rinses might not be enough to clarify the goop off your hair.  You might try a clarifying shampoo to see if that does the trick.  Then do a heavy conditioning to replace the lost moisture.  Hairspray is alcohol based and will dry out the hair.

My shampoo has protein in it!  :-/
I'm going to buy a clarifying shampoo tomorrow.. do you think I should still try the ACV rinses?

I don't usually recommend ACV rinses with clarifying shampoos.  I'm always afraid it will be too drying to the hair.  But conditioning after clarifying is a must.
