I need to know some products?

Ok three questions..

First anyone who's a cosmetologist or knows a lot about hair. HELP ME! We live in an apartment complex with incredibly bad water. I have a shower with a filter, I Malibu my hair twice a month and I use Ion shampoo and Conditioner to try and keep the incredibly rusty hard water off my hair. Anyway, As a result my hair is very dead and lifeless. Its just so very dry and just yuck. I'm a blond so that doesn't help it. I need to know a shampoo, conditioner and anything to use on my hair to revive it. I've gotten highlights and lowlights twice this year so that doesn't help. Anyway, I don't care if its salon brand or store, I just need something that helps with buildup and has intense moisture, also something thats good for heat, bc I straighten my hair. Any recommendations?

Also any vitamins I could take?

And what product should I put in my hair for straightening and styling. I want my hair to look like this, just healthy..

Whats going on with my hair loss?

My hair has been falling out these past 6 months. Its ridiculus how much hair i pull out when i take a shower. I've tried everything from taking vitamins to switching hair products and shampoo and conditioner. I recently read on WebMd that it could be becuase I have a hormonal imbalance which completely explains why..becuase when I was younger I had to take growth hormones (the shots that make you taller) ..becasue my body wasn't up to date with my age. I have stopped taking the shots about 4 years ago and now my hair is thinning dramatically and falling out. What should I do?
please serious answers only..dont tell me to buy a wig or anything
Thanks so much in advance

Longer hair, faster with Cabellina Shampoo & Conditioner?

I just bought this shampoo and conditioner, Cabellina for Mane, Tail & Body. When brought to the front, my hair is about 2 inches past my shoulders. When put to the back, it stops just where my bra is. I really want hair down to my waist. I have stopped straightening it, I wash it daily and let it air dry, I sleep with it in a head wrap, and I take fish oil, Iron, Biotin, And Vitamin B.

I have only been using Cabellina for the past two days. Will it help my hair grow?

And will the other things I am doing assist?

Please help, especially if you have used it too.

Help! I am only a teen and hair is falling out!?

I am only 16 (17 in a couple months) and my hair is falling out. Its been doing this since I was 12ish, maybe 13. It seems to only fall out in the shower but I do pick a few hairs, during the day, off of myself and both the table and computer. Yes I dye my hair but the hair dye isn't the problem because even my natural hair (before I started dyeing my hair) fell out. I also use a gentle hair dye plus my scalp does not get irritated when I dye it. I have done everything suggested on the web, gone to the doctor, bought products at Sally's recommended by the employees, let my hair dry instead of blow drying it, taking vitamins, switching to wide tooth combs, not using hair styling products (gel, mouse, hairspray, etc.), and switching to sulfate free shampoo and conditioner. I've even tried dying my hair less often. When I went to the doctor they did blood tests and said I was low on vitamin D and other than that I was completely normal and healthy. They said to take 2000 units of vitamin D once a day. They examined my scalp and said I wasn't having any reaction to hair dye but couldn't find anything wrong. I only have parkland medicaid insurance and don't have any other doctors in my area that will except it. My own doctor doesn't even except it anymore so I can't be seen for anything at all by him. What do I do!? Thank you for the help.

I used to have nice hair but as I've gotten oler (I'm 34), it's gotten frizzy. Is there anything I can do?

I don't know if it's a vitamin deficiancy or the humidity of living in Tennessee (from California). I use everything from grocery store shampoo and conditioner to high end salon products. I've tried anti-friz stuff (including Paul Mitchell) and it makes my hair look oily.

It's so frizzy it's unmanageable. I used to have soft, shiny hair about ten years ago.
Thanks so much!!!

nautral shampoo? the benefits of it?

ok so i bought some shampoo and conditioner called down under naturals i've never heard of it but it looks alright so i'm wondering if it's ok? the description on the back says "compromised of fruit extracts and natural botanicals. Hair and scalp are infused with vitamin B5,B12, cellulose, fruit proteins and UV protecters to fortify and revive locks, leaving them 60% stronger and shinier" I've never heard of this stuff and am not a hair products expert but does it sound okay?
