Dry, Damaged Hair From Dying It… Help!?
Ok so I was trying to go lighter when dying my hair and lets just say it didn't work so I had to re-dye it 3 times in 2 weeks. Bad, I know. It is still a horrible color that needs to be just plain dark brown. My hair is so badly fried that I can't even get a brush through it while blow drying ( bad again ) even after using conditioner in the shower and putting a leave in conditioner in. My hair is already short so cutting it is not an option. I am trying to longer.
What are some good products to fix this?! I am looking for nice, shiny, healthy longgggg hair! These are things I am considering:
Mane & Tail
Mayonnaise
Deep Conditioner
Prenatal Vitamins
I am not rich so please only cheap things I could buy at the drugstore!
Please only comment if you have tried these! thanks :)

ok first of all no blow drying your hair and just let it be for now.
1/2 ripe avocado
1 egg yolk
2 tbsp honey
Mix ingredients together until creamy then apply to shampooed towel-dried hair and leave on for 30 minutes. Rinse with warm water. Shampoo and condition lightly, then style hair as usual.
(honey and avocado moisturize and egg yolk smooths and conditions the hair shaft.
Recipe 2:
6 oz plain yogurt
3 tbsp olive oil
mix ingredients well until creamy, then apply to shampooed towel-dried hair, wrap head in a hot moist towel and seal in heat with second dry towel, leave on for 20 minutes. (coarse hair rinse thoroughly) Fine hair, use a gentle shampoo.
Another great way to get shiny hair would be to follow one of the recipes above, then rinse with regular beer or Apple Cider Vinegar, they may not smell great but they sure do seal the hair and make it shiny, you will notice your hair is more manageable.
For extremely dry hair try using plain mayonnaise on dry hair, leaving it in for about 15-30 minutes in a wrap or towel, then follow with your favorite shampoo and conditioner. (note that some people may experience very oily hair while using mayo; if you already have oily hair seek out a set that is "light" conditioning, and try to minimize the amount of product used in your hair, remember to brush your hair on a daily basis to help promote the oil all ove
here are some recicipes and not to mention try lemon juice it helps

I had that problem just from getting high lights
i wouldn’t say cut it
but just go for a layed on the top,
you won’t loose lenth
but it’ll thin it out so it can grow healthier
and gets rid of split ends
I do crazy with different products
usually sticking to one product doesn’t solve it
I use Moisture Renewel by Pantene
and Daily Moisture by Dove
Both Pantene and Dove are amazing with hair.
also take Vitamen B&E pills,
very good for skin, hair and nails.
