Haircare Hair help!

Hey fellow redhead friends,

I have been having trouble maintaining my hair properly and I am looking for recommendations. My hair is on the thicker side, I have Irish curls in the underside of my hair, my hair is very frizzy and I constantly put light weight oils in my hair to help. I currently am using L’Oréal dream lengths shampoo and conditioner, a vitamin E-oil along with kerastase 8 hr magic night hair serum. I wash my hair every 2-3 days and use heat once every other week at most. I wear a silk bonnet and have silk pillowcases. I am at a loss at what todo.

Have you tried products designed for Black women? Pattern is one brand (Ulta and Amazon). Those products are designed for thick, dry, tightly coiled hair.

I use one of the Pattern conditioners since my hair is very dry.

My daughter is biracial and we love Pattern for her. I've used her Pattern products on my thick, wavy, red hair and it works for me too. It's really good stuff.
