abinna-I'm really beginning to think we are hair twins. That product works miracles for me also. You may wanna try Lafier Lanolina Rinse. It works just like the Biolage on my tangles.

We just might be! I love that conditioner. I am going to try that Laifer stuff... I posted a while ago asking about a Dominican rinse and I think this is the one everyone thought it was. Thanks for the rec.

I just ordered a 3 month supply of Viviscal, so yes. I'm still looking for that supplement to boost my growth rate along with Surge. I'm excited to try the Surge scalp treatment that's NOT water based.

However, I'VE GIVEN UP on finding a miracle conditioner that'll make detangling my relaxed hair a breeze. For example, directly after a touchup, my hair is easy too comb roots to ends while I'm at the shampoo bowl with water running through it. As soon as I sit up and the water is turned off, the strands all grab each other and snarl the comb, and the shampoo girl starts to complain.

No more expensive conditioners or detanglers for me. I'll just keep rotating through my old ones and trying various techniquees to avoid tangles (i.e. washing in braided sections, waiting til hair is just damp to comb it, preconditioning before each wash).

Megon, back when i used to comb my hair wet I had the EXACT SAME problem. I have had wash girls have to trade off cause their arms were getting tired, then there would be a HUGE clump of hair in the sink. I want to recommend one product to you- Biolage Ultra Hydrating Balm- if you haven't already tried it.
Ths was the only thing that kept my hair so slippery that the comb would run thru it even if I hadn't been just relaxed. Its pricey, so i would reccomend getting the smallest size at first but it's worth the try. <img src="http://st1m.longhaircareforum.com/images/smilies/wink.gif" alt="" />

I always use to follow the "quanity or quality" for years until I switched over to "quality" out of desperation and got "quality" results. Although some lesser brands work good too. I guess, use what works for you.

quality over quantity..

i usually choose quantity over quality with hair products. but the quantity products i choose usually have quality. i usually do choose cheaper products. but i always have a balance between the expense/cost of the product and its quality. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Def. quality or quantity. That doesn't mean that because a product is an expensive salon brand that it is "quality".

[/ QUOTE ]Precisely! /images/graemlins/smile.gif There are also, products that don't cost a lot that are of excellent quality, as well.

I buy what I think is best for my hair regardless of price.

personally I've found both cheap product and expensive ones that had less than stellar results for my hair. I guess it just depends on one's body PH. The products that are splurge for me are LML, Aveda, KMS, Kenra. I only get them when I have extra money, which is not alot. I ALWAYS have to have a high quality shampoo because I have yet to find a cheap one that works really well on my hair. As for conditioners I use cheapies like Silk Elements/Queen Helene cholestrol when I run out of the expensive stuff. I also shop at places like trade secrets where every time you spend $20 you get your card punched and after like 6 or 8 punches you get a free product.
