I tried my best: all my products seem to rotate for more than 1 hair dilemna. Also for some of the hair issues: i felt as though a product won't necessarily fix but changing certain habits like "less products" "less combing" "rollersetting" etc, fixes the problem as well.

Thank you for your responses ladies.

I know that many of the items do not apply to you personally, but if you have heard of a treatment/remedy that is supposed to be awesome, that would be great if you could list that too. I wanted to give people a reference thread (a one stop shop) for their particular concern as well as build something for those sistahs that may be/will be dealing with the more serious issues. I also know that a rec. is given with your own personal experience. I am hoping that some other people will respond to the more serious ones like chemo and alopecia. Once again...thanks.:yawn:
