How to improve hair health?

[image] my hair on pic, has anyone have similar type? If so which products do you use to keep it healthy? Or any other suggestion how to improve it.
So far I am using shampoo and condicioner with caffein and leave in condicioner from Czech brand Bione which is without parabenes, and sulfates. Then from time to time coconut oil. And always airdry it. 1-2x per week but it is still not that healthy how I wish. Dealing with bad split ends and knots. Any help and advice is welcomed.

I have just used one kind of shampoo for years. I found my hair become weaker when I tried new shampoo. I also use coconut oil as conditioner and I have a lot of conditioners. Do you color your hair? If so you should use argan oil or coconut oil to prevent it from drying.

@wildflower12: I dyed it long time ago but the red sticked pretty well...and I am using coconut oil from time to time :)

Yes. I think coconut oil is much better than argan oil. If you can make coconut oil by yourself, the oil has higher quality. My family laughed at me when I made the coconut oil in the first time. Now all my family start using coconut oil for different purposes.

@wildflower12: Well at us it's hard to get coconuts... :/ so I buy bio 100% coconut oil. But yeah my family are giving me weird looks too because I am using it a lot... :D but it's very useful I have to admit for many different things.

I used coconut milk cans to make coconut oil. Can u find those cans in the supermarket nearby ur house? It takes about 5-10 cans.. depends on how often u use. I usually use the top of the can where has real coconut milk and put those milk into the pot and cook for 2 hours then I will have real coconut milk.

I am sorry to hear so but keep on using coconut oil, u will have wonderful hair. My hair is curly but I think coconut oil helps my hair in good shape. I dont usually go to hair salon but people usually give good comments about my hair.

@wildflower12: Thank you very much for tips anyway :) Maybe I will look for other oil which is even lighter than coconut oil... my hair tend to get greasy easily when I did overnight coconut oil hair mask.

How long have u used the coconut oil? I used it as hair mask once overnight per two week. It makes our hair very oily if you use too often. My hair is oily

I tried it like 3x ... and always made very oily heavy and it looked very bad even lost shine. So I use it now only everyday on the ends little bit to make them moinsturized.
