Thanks, May. I forgot (as I'm menopausal - and if I hadn't written it in the previous post, I'd have forgotten I'd mentioned it - and we both know what that's like!) to ask if you take hair vits? I was taking Philip Kingsleys Tricho tablets until recently, but due to their cost, I've switched to Lambert's Maxi Hair (found totally by accident whilst looking for something else). There's very little difference in formulation or results, so quids in all around. My hair has felt healthier and definitely not as dry as it was since taking them.
Does your hair look and feel better after a blow dry? I've heat styled my hair for the last 16 years and the only major problems I've had have been after using GHDs. You're very lucky that you can get away with air drying, but with a bit of care (and the right products), heat won't necessarily damage your hair. If you're going somewhere nice and you think the weather might give you the frizzies, try blow drying the style in and the frizz out. Heating it with the Elasticizer on will make it penetrate better, too.
Also, in case you didn't know, using high protein conditioners and masks can dry hair out and make it brittle, too. Most protein masks won't tell you to use a conditioner after them, which is really annoying. The only one that does (that I know of), is Lee Stafford - which is also a good product to use a few times a month. My niece's hair had started getting dry and frizzy after using a protein mask too often. She cut back and added conditioner and her hair is back to her crowning glory.
