I use Monat...I started off as a skeptic but I LOVE it. My hair looks so much more healthy, less frizzy, easier to style, plus lots of quick and new growth! I don’t have your hair type, so I can’t comment on that. One set of shampoo/conditioner lasts me over 3 months (washing every other day or so), so while it’s expensive, I’m able to justify it by “price per wash”

@Canoli: I started with the volume line and now I’m using the intensive repair shampoo/conditioner. I think I preferred the volume shampoo, but the intensive repair smells better ha. I also use their leave in conditioner, masque, hair spray, dry shampoo, rejuvabeads, and blow dry cream (not all of these every day. I have slowly been accumulating products since May and have yet to purchase any replacements, besides just opening my new shampoo/conditioner). My mom uses the rejuvinique oil and really likes it but it’s sooooo expensive. They have a 30 day money back guarantee but honestly I didn’t notice a huge different until I had used it a couple months. Just an FYI.

I finally bit the Monat bug last month. Over the past few months I saw my friends hair that was bleached and dried out turn baby soft again. It was soft because her hair was healthy again, not because she had a ton of product on it. I have only been using the products for about a month, but I'm already seeing results from less build up on my hair. I'm just using the Volume line because I tend to get oily on my roots.

Old thread but wanted to add that I have had good luck adding essential oils to over the counter shampoos to help with my scalp!!!

My girlfriend ended up losing some of her hair after using Monat...its the only "review" I've heard and obviously is a bad one - likely an isolated incident. Since I've had luck adding oils to my normal shampoo I've never pursued it further...

@Mrs D: do you mind if I ask which oils you add and how much?

@newlypregnantlady: I’ve heard adding Tea Tree Oil is great to prevent lice! In general TTO is good for skin

@Mrs D: thanks! I have some serious scalp issues but my actual hair is fairly okay. I have trouble finding something that moisturizes my scalp. I seriously have the driest skin ever.

@T.H.O.U.: I love tea tree! I’ll have to go see if I can dig some up. Although I have very dry skin so idk if that would make things worse? I’m pretty sure I’ve got some laying around, I’ll have to try it!
