Pantene Pro-V Beautiful Lengths 5-Minute Strengthening Mask ($3.99, drugstores)
Supercharged with cuticle-smoothing dimethicone, this fast-acting treatment turns strawlike strands into silk and prevents breakage. "It's so hydrating, I use it in place of my regular conditioner," says Carisa Tierney of Lincroft, New Jersey.

I get good results with Pantene products, even though they arn't my favorites. That would be Aveeno Volume and Nourish.

Try Pureology Shampoo / Conditioner they make, Real SULFATE FREE, guaranteed to make your hair feel like silky heaven. And that cost $$$ The Shampoo is around $26.00 and depending what conditioner U get it could for anywhere from $25 to $100.00 & worth every penny. Found at Ulta and online
