My hair is very damaged due to multiple times of dying it, I need help on products that would help my hair look much healthier!

Unfortunately you cannot repair damaged hair / you just have to chop off the damage and start with new hair and take care of it - any products you use won't solve the problem - so you should try to get regular trims (at least 2 inches) every month until the damage is gone / and then take care of the new hair with moisturizing shampoos and conditioners - try to stay away from heat (hot water or blow dryers n straighteners) and if you must use heat / make sure you use a heat protectant spray - I had damage from dying my hair blonde at a salon that didn't know how to dye it properly without damaging it - and my hair never recovered until I cut out all the blonde and I used Paul Mitchell moisture line and now my hair is back to being healthy - and I rarely see split ends even after not getting it cut for 6+ months.

I had the same trouble with my hair, but besides coloring I had chemicals on my hair to make it straight. It was beyond salvation and my solution was to chop it off, just like Diana said.
My hair length was like, in the middle of my back or more, now it's on my shoulders, but I don't regret it cause my hair has never been healthier! And for the products, I used that Silicon mix mask, it helped me a lot! Hope you get your solution dear xx

I agree with Diana. Damaged hair isn't just going to repair itself. I would just get the damaged hair cut off and then start keeping it healthy with coconut oil hair masks. I do them 2-3x a week and leave it in for 1-2 hours. Make sure to shampoo twice to remove all the oil or your hair will get oily again within a day.

Split end repair products can help you achieve the apperance of healthier hair (depending on the extent of the damage). but as the ladies said its not going to restore your health back to health and eventually the splits will travel down the hair shaft.

I'd recommend using coconut oil before you shampoo it as well. I only shampoo twice a week. (I shower everyday still though. Haha) and right before I massage coconut oil all over my scalp and ends. Then I get in the shower and let's the warm steam open the follicles. And then I shampoo and condition. And always rinse with cool, or at least lukewarm water. I only wash my hair at night so I can let it air dry until the morning. And only use hot tools like twice a week. That way you can prevent this from happening again. I've always had problems with dry hair, especially after I colored it. And this regimen solve everything.

You can try and bring up a little back to life but sadly I can't really repair hair but with that being said I have to say you damage your hair with chemicals so course you can't fix your hair with chemicals right? so I think this is definitely the time where you want to use as many natural products as possible relieve nourish your hair olive oil and coconut oil work fantastic as a hair mask I would only wash your hair about twice a week maximum try and stay away from heat and if you have to use heat invest in a very good heat protectant and I would style your hair with things like argan oil stuff that will really continue to nurse you and I would also go to a hair stylist and get their opinion because it might be too far gone I've been there and it sucks I know.
